A lot has happened in the past two years and to quickly summerise we have had a human addition to the family, two pet losses and three new pets!
I have had a some time to get back into my crafting and now thanks to a wonderful shop I frequent I am into scrapbooking! Thanks PaperArts (link below). I have only created two pages from scratch but I am really pleased with both of them! I am really enjoying altering tags too. Oh and I created a fab altered bookbox after I took a Andy Skinner class.
This is my first scrapbook page!
This is my husband and daughter, I really love the way this one turned out. The main page is distress inked in peeled paint. There were two layered pieces under the photo, the top one is peeled paint and faded jeans over gesso! It looks fab.
The bottom layer was a glossy cardstock with alcohol inks in Butterscotch and Lettuce.
I used a piece of paper from K and Co Speciality sparkle pad and edged it with a fiskers edge punch. I took plain ivory pearls and coloured them in with a green promarker and stuck these on the holes in the pattern down the edge.
The words were pink cardstock cut out on my Cricut using the George basic cartridge.
The pea pod was a labour of love! I am awful at drawing and despite my best efforts all of my peas came out looking squashed or just plain not pea pod like. I trawled the net for a free template and then printed it off. I punched two peas from green cardstock and put glossy accents on them to make them stand up. Stuck it all down and voila my first page!
So a sneaky peek at my second page I will post asap:
See you soon
