I have used “A Moment In Time” Chipboard Title C1402, Antique Key Pack C1313 and Corner Flourish Swirly C1233.

I have used a variety of media on this chippy – Silver Distress Crackle, Pink and Silver Glimmermist…. and lots more I just can’t remember..lol..just playing around with a heap of different things. 

Here is a couple of close ups:

I love this range too – it is October Afternoon Farmhouse – so beautiful, and perfect for the huge amount of Vintage Photos I have to scrap.

Some More Inspiration

Over at the WOW blog - here is the layout I did :


And here are a couple of close ups of the chippy I used - School Kit C1166




I painted them in nice bright colours to blend in with my layout and inked them in some ink too.  Matched perfectly with my layout, hey?

Here is a layout I did for the Sketch Challenge over at Anna's Craft Cupboard:




I also used some WOW chippy on this  - The small flower set, which I sprayed with Glimmermist. While it was still wet, I curled the petals up on the flowers to add dimension.  Finished them off with a little rhinestone in the centre.

New Inspiration Over at WOW

There is a new inspiration post over at WOW - the design team over there really has some fabulous ideas for how to use WOW chipboard.
Anyways,  this is what I did using the Vine Set, and the Block Capitals.

I usually don't do flowery layouts for Connor, but the Basic Grey Piccadilly range is just so pretty, and I loved the colours. There is something about blue and red that is just so refreshing....


 This is a close up of the letters and the vine - I painted them in White, then added some Tattered Angels Glimmerglam to give them a blue sparkle.....


Don't forget, WOW chipboard are running a promotion - buy any piece of WOW chipboard from a retailer, and receive a FREE Filgaree Heart....and believe me, it is GORGEOUS..
Here is a sneak of how I used it:

WOW Filgree Butterfly

Just wanted to share this layout that is up over on the WOW Blog as part of an inspiration post.

Sweet-Lil-Eva

Do you see the gorgeous filgree butterfly?  Beautiful isn’t it?  It is one of the prettiest, most ornate butterflies on the chippy market.  I just had to alter it to suit the colours of my layout, so I used Adironack Paint Dabbers – in blue, then used Glimmerglam – Tutu Pink and added a few lil teal rhinestones. 

Photo is of my gorgeous lil neice Eva – such a pretty little girl….. 

While you are over at the WOW Blog, check out the post be Gilly Lester – that layout of hers is gorgeous, and she has shared a video of a fantastic “Wet Distressing” technique for your chipboard.

Happy Scrapping Peeps!!

My Mind’s Eye Sketch Competition

Playing along with  Sketch Challenge 31 on the My Mind’s Eye Blog today.

I had to use this Sketch:

MME Challenge 31

Also, the word “new” had to me used  in the title.

I did this:

A-New-School-Year

It’s titled  “A New School Year”  I used one of the photos I took today of my very excited little man starting his first day of school in Year two.  I’ve used MME Alphabet Soup papers, teamed with some Fine & Dandy embellishments and ribbon, a Lush 2 Journaling Spot and some Lime Twist twine…

Thanks for looking!!!
