Scrappy Goodness From Scrapbook Savvy

This month, I have been lucky enough to be Guest Designer over at Scrapbook Savvy.  Sar sent me the truely stunning We're Savvy kit to play with.
It is absoulutely beautiful - full of gorgeous Vintagey - Inspired Goodness.  The Papers are from the NEW range of Cosmo Cricket - Odds and Ends, plus some sweet cabouchens, and Martha Stewart doilies... 
This layout would have to be one of my favourites from this year - I just love it.  The photo is of my Mum and her big sis, Elaine.  I handmade all the flowers, and added a few leaves and pearls from my stash.



With this one, I stuck with a Vintage feel - but added a few masculine touches - I wanted to continue the them of old-fashioned games, so I made a little kite from the papers and twine in the kit.  The buttons came from my stash.


















I love the whimsical feel of this photo - which I altered in Lightroom - so I did something I don't usually do, and added flowers to Connor's layout.  I handmade some paper roses, and also made flowers using a scallop punch,  Scallop punch flowers are gorgeous - turn out looking very Priam - ish - I just love them!!
I also added some lace and some Kaisercraft flowers from my stash.  The butterflies were punched out of scrap bit of paper from the kit.


Well, that's it from my - hope I've inspired you!
If you would like a stepxstep posted for the scallop flowers, let me know in your comments, and I'll post one. 
Cheers - Happy Scrapping!
