Parisian Love

Hi everyone!
Back again sharing some fabulous Welcome To Paris love.  I was sent this gorgeous Prima range by Anna from Anna's Craft Cupboard to play with, and I loved it!!
The colours in this range are awesome - I loved the combinations of reds, golds and grey/blues.


I have also used a WOW words or Whatever FilmStrip WOW428  which I painted in black gesso, then dapped some Adironack Dabber in Juniper on to blend with the colours.
Here are some close ups:





Here is a more yellow based layout:




Finally, I tried something a little different, tried a different style to use up some scraps of paper.


 
More close ups:
 
 
 
 
That's it for now, I will be back later today with some links to a fantastic blog hop!!

MIA

Hi!
Wow, just noticed it has been over a month since I posted anything on this blog - my total bad.  I have been so busy over the school holidays with Christmas, doctor's appointments for our boy, and going away visiting relatives.  Time has flown and - thankfully, the holidays are nearly over.

I have still been creating and I thought I would share some of the layouts I have created with the DT kit Anna from Anna's Craft Cupboard sent me:

The first couple of layouts are using the Bo Bunny Campalot Range, available here:



I have also used a frame from the WOW - Words or Whatever 12x12 Circle Frame With Arrow Set WOW1624, which was sprayed with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Coffee Shop and edged with some Adironach Dauber Paint.

Here is a close up:



I also created this layout using this fantastic boy range:

This photo of Connor was taken ages ago - he was still in Prep, and had to go to Prep dressed as something starting with a letter they had already studied.  My dinosaur obsessed Preppie wanted to go dressed as a Tyranosaurus Rex - Of course!!
Here is a close up:



Well, that is it from me, but I WILL be back tomorrow to share some more!!
Have a lovely day!

My Mind' Eye Lost and Found 3

Happy Monday Everyone!
I was lucky enough to get My Mind' Eye Lost and Found 3 in my DT Pack from Anna's Craft Cupboard.
This is what I created:

This layout also has a WOW Words or Whatever Caitlin Flourish  C1199.  I painted it with a Adironack Paint Dabber in Gold, then added some Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam in Golden Goddess.




I have also used a WOW/ACC Exclusive Mini Spear Picket Fence which was painted with a Adironack Dauber - in gold, and also Tattered Angels Golden Goddess.  Those gorgeous butterflies were created with a Memory Box Die - Kleidoscope Butterfly.
That's it from me for now, hope you all have a lovely week!
