Three layouts for you all today, two are  using the wonderful sketches from  Flying Unicorn  and the other is one of Aldas challenges I spy....where you had to use certain things on your page. This one is for the I Spy Challenge The next two are  from Mojo Monday sketches And here is last weeks

Hmm I thought to myself when I looked at this months sketch from  Prima  something round to be put onto this page..... Then I thought I have some very fat twine that would go lovely and being a beach page it went well. I have used the Something Blue Collection papers, flowers, leaves and letter stickers. Gesso and ayeeda paint ( matte sand ) along with a mask.

Welcome to the last day of the month for October, getting very close to Christmas. Have to try and do some chrissy cards soon. Today I decided to give the sketch a go for  Dusty Attic  I have used a prima mask for the background, prima paper( something blue paper range) dusty attic vintage name plates these are fairly old I have had them in my stash for a while also some pretty flowers. Ayeeda modelling paste, pearl olive green and chalk lilac sprays. Micro beads and some dimensional magic. And here is the sketch  

Here we are once again time to reveal my layout for this months sketch at  Blue Fern Studio  My daughter Tracy recently went to Bali for a holiday and she just loves elephants so a ride was a must. It is not easy to scrap elephants, I tried to make this page not as light and flowery as I usually put on my pages. Really not sure with this one. Product I have used White cardstock, a prima mask, texture paste, corrigated card stock, prima trim as well as a petaloo trim, Tim Holtz rub ons and letter stickers, Blue fern studio ginger poppies, gesso, Ayeeda pearl olive, pastel black, chalk lilac and pearl bordeaux sprays, prima stamp and black staz on

Hi everyone I am here with Octobers sketch from  Once Upon A sketch . This photo was taken at the last Retreat we had at Coolwaters in Yeppoon in August this year. This is a great group of girls to hang around with, when one is down in the dumps we all rally around and help or try to anyway.   We had to include journaling and the theme was the women/girls in our lives....  my journaling is hidden on tags under the photo. And here is the sketch I have turned the sketch on its side Product I have used paper from prima something blue collection, tags, flowers, wooden buttons, gesso and texture paste and a prima mask. Glitter, pop art pink shimmerz spray.

Here I am again with another card class at  Scrapbook Fantasies  this Tuesday 28th October. I will be doing three cards using a $5.00 kit. Class will cost $17.00 so come in and have some fun and you also get a free coffee as well. Sorry this is last weeks class. I know I know I have been a bit slack putting my classes up, but I have had one of those months. This week was technique week and we made a christmas bon bon or cracker. It is big enough to place on your table Christmas day and put a present inside and the persons name on the outside.

Another challenge for this month under my belt. This one is for an online facebook challenge site, and the theme was purple. Do anything purple. So I decided to do a purple card, this will be for my Mum for her birthday.

Hi girls sorry for this being so late but this is the cards I will be teaching at  scrapbook fantasies  this week. The class starts at 10 am and costs $17.00 and we are making three easy cards. And here they are.... You just need to bring your normal tools etc...

I am on a roll with these lovely sketches form  Flying Unicorn  and yes more photos of the beautiful bride. I have so many photos have to use them up. I have used some Studio 75 Panna Olivia 03 paper, petalo flowers alnog with some prima flowers, resins, mask, metals and ayeeda acrylic modeling paste. I just love the wooden vine from petaloo need some more. But you all know how I am with flowers.... And now for the sketch

Another week is upon us and another class. This week I am teaching at  Scrapbook Fantasies  from 10 am to 12. We are doing some more christmas and this week I have made for you an exploding card. so bring your score pal and your measuring skills. As you will definitely need them.I have just added some white liquid pearls to the inside of the flowers to give them some omph. This cards stands about 8 inches high and is about 6 inches wide when folded in half.

Another challenge to mark off my list. This is another one I have not done for a while it is from Dusty Attic . But I managed to squeeze it in this month. I have used some Authentique classique paper collection-Pretty foundation. And some dusty attic fancy labels and scroll borders and flowers I found in my stash also prima resin word. I have used shimmerz texturz patina through a mask on my background along with some white twine to make the circle. I also used ayeeda mist pearl sky blue and olive green sprays. And here is the sketch   

Another week full of challenges. This one is from  Kaisercraft  with this one you could make any sort of card. So I thought my husband Lauire his birthday is on the 13th October so what a good time to make his. That is why the number is on the front of the card. The card is made form Kaisercraft mister fox paper collection and collectables. I found it so hard not to put flowers on this card, but I know he wouldn't have minded.

Wow another week is upon us it will be Christmas before we know it. This week we are doing Christmas again. Seems you all asked for Christmas related stuff. Our class is on Tuesday 30th September at 10 am at  Scrapbook Fantasies  I will be showing you some nice tags, either to put on pressies or you could out them onto a card base. We are creating form a $5.00 kit again and have made 6 large cards and out of my scraps have made two smaller ones. Seems there where no bling in the kit I would add some bling to the middle of the flowers. These are my two tags made from the scraps
