Scrapbook Layout

I don't often do scrapbook layouts, but i absolutely love these images and had to do a double page spread with them for my post on the Sugar and Spice Design Team for last month. Using a pink page that already had a slight pattern on, i used some masks, which i then inked around and then went round with a white pen to add stitching (and yes it took ages!) used some pearly doodles to add some accents. Inked around the photo which i used punches to make a pretty edge that i mounted the pictures on. The sentiments were from the Scribble Flowers stamp set, which i just love. I glittered the petals and added gem in centre to finish off, and must admit.... im kind of liking scrapbooking, so may have to make alot more pages.

This shot shows a close up of the stitching detail.

Gorjuss card


This was a card i made a couple weeks ago, never got round to posting this, or dont think i did? but used one of my fav gorjuss stamps, love this image, and printed off some papers i downloaded from somewhere? sorry but i forgot where i downloaded them from! ooops how bad is that? inked the edges, nestabilities frame, bit of glimmer mist... had to! and a flower to finish it off. Was rather pleased with the result to be honest, so kinda proud of this one.

Glimmer Mist Fairy!

Had to funk up these scrapbook papers coz they 'needed' a little something! some embossed etc on them to make them look bit more alive?
As for Glimmer Mists! well... the background has been misted, so has the green under the fairy and had to use the new fairy... Zinnia, must admit she is my absolute favourite, she is just soooo pretty, so as i couldnt think what else to add to the page, had to fairy it up a bit!
Am pleased with how it came out tho! Glimmer mists just add that little bit of sparkle needed! and with a bit of glitter.....

Not sure?

Made this as i was inspired by the colours of the scrapbook page, green and pink which looked fab, glimmer misted the background in the same colours (although they dont look the same colour?) but i think it needs something else? but what? hmmm?
ideas on a postcard to.........! LOL

WOW! Glimmer Mist!!!

Cor WOW! Glimmer Mist sprays are just absolutely gorgeous! bought 2 yesterday from Sugar and Spice (fab shop by the way!), but knew id have to go back and get some more......which i did! hahaha
Look at these colours?

And this is a card i made, yep changed my colour scheme from pink, brown and blue to these really gorgeous rich colours, which i decided on after id messed about with colouring the cuttlebugged part. I glimmer misted the polka dot cuttlebug background, found some really yummy orange ribbon lurking in the depths of my ribbon box and stamped some of the little flowers and hey presto! was rather chuffed with it.


Off to play some more with these glimmer mists! will post them later.....
take care
