OFF SHORE

This is a layout i did recently using the 'Off Shore ' paper collection from Kaisercraft ...actually to be truthful it was more about getting to use that gorgeous 'half shell' border punch ... I was dying to get that onto a lay out!!  I'm not too sure about those glitter butterflies, I think they look good on the layout, but I have developed a nervousness about 'stickers' in general .... they just don't smack of class! I think I'm becoming a scrapbooking snob ... is there an intervention for that sort of thing?

Stampin' Up!

Ok ...so you are not going to believe this, but here it is.... the only non-Kaisercraft laylout I have done in years ...and what or whom was it that tempted me to 'cross over' ??
Those divine Stampin' Up! products ....gosh I love their stamps ....and their inks and all their classy ideas!
I won't let this kind of thing happen too often, but I just couldn't resist doing a layout with this gorgeous stamp set and these delish ink colors.

ARGENTELLA PRINCESS

This is a layout I did using the beautiful Argentella paper collection ... I figured black and white would be perfect as I didn't want to distract from those gorgeous pink tutus!

ENGLISH ROSE DESK SET

This would have to be my all time fav. paper collection ... it inspires me no end. I have been wanting to put together a matching desk set for a while now, but nothing took my fancy that much until this collection came out! Well it's all done now ...even I was surprised by the amount of projects I got done with this one collection ... are there are still more desk top items  to come ...just as soon as I catch my breath! :)

Seaside...

This is a layout done using the new 'Seaside' paper collection just released by Kaisercraft ... I love those new canvas tags. And I must say that this would have to be my all time fav. 'beachy' paper collection!!

Love Notes ...

I can't take the credit for all of this project, as I helped my friend make this frame and mirror for her nieces 21st birthday prezzie [credit Christine] .... but I do think these new papers in the 'Love Notes' collection are pretty stunning, and these projects worked out just beautifully!

A Kaiser Mirror ....

.

This is Kates mirror ... I'made it for her birthday because she just one of the most beautiful people I have ever  known. It's made from the large Kaiser Mirror, bling strips, a bunch of papers and that adorable wood flourish bird

HEY BIRDIE

These are some layouts I did using the 'Hey Birdie' paper collection ... the first one has a hidden journaling panel and a satin rose ( made by burning the edges of satin circles) ...Gosh I like this paper range!!

THE LITTLE THINGS

I have had the most lovely day scrapbooking today. This is the layout that I came up with .... I must say I'm thrilled with how it all worked out. I used the new 'After 5' paper collection and some lace and paper flowers for this page ... I love lace ...think Ill do more work with it in the future!!

LILLY WREATH

This is one of Kaisercrafts 'funky wreaths' that I made into a door hanger for my beautiful Lilly ... again I've used the 'Lilac Avenue' paper collection to make this and some other random green Kasier papers. I'm very happy with how it all turned out ... I love the little violets best of all ... they are just 3 different colors of the small Kaisercraft paper flowers ... really simple ...really effective! :)

MY GIRLS

All my GORGEOUS girls .... made using the 'Lilac Avenue' paper collection, stamps and Opal Embossing Crystals.

PERFECT

The challenge here was to create butterflies using the Kaisercraft paper flowers... simple yet effective! I'm in love with these photos ... I think I'll get them developed again and do multiple layouts using them... he he he!

YOUR LOVE

Talk about a layout with minimum effort .... the whole page was so easy, the background paper came with all those gorgeous flourish swirls and I just added a few bits n pieces around the photo to decorate it. What a divine photo and a satisfying page to create :)

CHRISTMAS TREE

I ADORE Christmas time .. and this photo is the perfect example of everything I love about it .... those tiny moments that all the magic is made up of! I really took my time making this page, as I wanted it to be special and I love the look of it ... the title was done using Opal Embossing Crystals.

SISTERS

I REALLY don't like this photo of myself ....how vein of me!! But my sister loved this photo of herself, so I made this page for her ... I really like stamping and here I've used some gorgeous stamps I purchased off 'Stampin' Up'. These are all my fav. colours!

BROTHERS

A layout made using the Kaisercraft 'Lorie Vally' paper collection ...I've also got in there and dry embossed a bit and then manipulated the paper even further ...sanding, inking, tearing and paint flicking .... a messy but fun layout to make!

FLY

This my new fav. layout ... I did it to enter a comp. that I didn't win at all ... mind you I can't imagine why not ...I think it's just FABULOUS!!! (Bhahahahaha)

I LOVE these new papers by Kaisercraft and am thrilled at how well the photos worked with the whole thing ... I'd like to do more layouts that I'm this happy with!

First Joggers

This is a divine little layout where I really got into using my stamps ... I really enjoyed doing this page and am happy with the whole thing ... sometimes my pages can get a bit 'over done'... I like it when I achieve the look I'm after with minimum fuss. How cute are those little stick legs??? :)

SHE SHINES

This is a layout I did for a Kaisercraft 'Saturday Sketch'  competition.... I just love the photos of my beautiful whimsical daughter, and I was thrilled with how the layout turned out in the end! :)

FAMILY

This layout is one I did for a recipe challenge .... not entirely happy with the end results, but I must admit I LOVE this paper range and all the matching embellishments!!

SO FREE

This is a layout I did for a class showcasing the different uses for Opal Embossing Crystals.

Tea 4 three

This is a layout I did recently using a heap of the gorgeous new embellishments that came out with the 'Candy Lane' paper collection.... the wooden tea party elements have been embossed with 'Opal' embossing crystals.
