its all about FUN!

Just popping in very quickly today to share my layout for the Sassy Scrappers sketch challenge.
 
I have used a combination of alcohol inks and water colours to create the background. I love the viabrancy of the alcohol ink and how it works over the top of gesso.

Prima BAP using Paper Stories Love of a Lifetime kit

Me AGAIN!
 
I have been busy creating but not blogging, so this morning I got out my camera and started photoing my layouts. With no sunny days ahead here in Perth I had to make the most of the morning sun.
 
This layout is for the Prima BAP. I have rotated it and then flipped it to suit. I have used the Paper Stories Love of a Lifetime kit which is full of Engraver and Lifetime papers. I have added some extra Prima products like the lightbulb and birds.
 
I have been experimenting lately with Luminartes H2O's and I am loving the watercolours. A warning to you that the next few layouts I post will be full of more watercolour backgrounds!
 
I love the clear pebbles with Helmars 450 used to glue them down and it has created air bubbles underneath.
 
A more traditional flower clusters but with a mixed media twist.

he is.... Sketchbook365

a very good morning to you all!
 
quickly popping in to share my layout for the Sketchbook 365 sketch. The sketch did throw me and yes I have added my touches but the base is still there - i promise!
 
I have used Teresa Collins papers to create this layout of my husband. It's not the best pic of him but they are so hard to get. I normally just get a blank look and here he is at Yallingup Beach relaxing with a beer.
 
I have used the most awesome watercolours - Luminarte H2O's. They provide shimmer with a highly pigmented watercolour. Must get my hands on more of these!
 
So here is my layout
"You Are My World"
 


 
 
Thanks for popping by

I have used the Paper Stories Love of a Lifetime kit. This is layout #3 from this kit. I am in love with all the Prima and endless possibilities. I have done a step x step on creating this layout but keep an eye out on the Paper Stories blog for it as it won't go live just yet.
