Periwinkle Cards

 

This set of cards made using the Periwinkle Collection were great fun to knock up ... I'm LOVIN all the birds and ballons in this collection and the earthy colours are just so romantic!!

I'm sure my obsession with romance is the reason why I struggle so much with male cards... LOL.

Pearls feature a lot in these cards and they really bring something special to the canvas ... its the same with scrapbook pages, I find a few pearls always lift a page.

Thanks for dropping by for look,

Cheers from Kel.

Periwinkle Layout

Today I have a very romantic layout to share made using the Periwinkle Collection. This is a beautiful heritage collection full of birds, roses and hot air ballons ...all the 'In' things right now in scrapbooking.

I've tried to make a central feature of the ribbon roses in this layout ... 

I LOVE the Kaisercraft ribbon roses ... they are soft, pretty, romantic and will sit relatively flat inside a plastic sleeve ... you almost couldn't ask for more in an embellishment! LOL

You will also notice I managed to scrape up some gorgeous little white resin birds to go on this layout ... I can't remember the name of the company that made them, but I'll have to find out and let you know because they are divine!

Thanks for stopping to look.

Smiles from Kel.

      

Sat. Sketch #2 Oct 2012

This week I have used the Periwinkle Collection for the Saturday Sketch comp over at the 

Kaisercraft Blog. 

This was a hard one for me ... being round ... I don't usually stray too far from the 12 x 12 format, so I kind of couldn't help myself popping the circle back into the normal page context! LOL

I'm still loving the ballons and birds that are abounding in scrapbooking at the moment and can't help sticking a bird on pretty much every page I ever do at the moment!

This photo is an old family one that I used because of the orange tones that suited these papers so well.. I'm really enjoying the Periwinkle collection and the Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazine recently picked up one of my layouts for publishing using this collection also ... so YAY for Periwinkle!!

Thanks for looking...

Cheers from Kel.
