You Make Me Happy

Welcome  everyone.
 Today I have created my very first layout for
Just Add Flair
This small company makes beautiful Flair Buttons for all occasions
just go to the facebook page and follow the link to the shop you won't be disappointed.

Today I have created a layout using a precious photo of my new Grand daughter Zarna Rose.
I have put the layout in a frame to be put on my wall.


I firstly cut an 8x8 inch frame from the pink cardstock.
 You do this by placing your cardstock in your cutter so you have the edge of your cardstock on the 2 inch mark. Then by measuring and cutting from the 2 inch mark up to the 10 inch mark. Turn each side and repeat this another 3 times.  And you will be able to pull out a 8x8 inch piece of cardstock from the middle. 
Cut 1/2 inch from two sides of your paper, your paper will now measure 11 1/2 x 11 1/2 inches then use an edge distresser around the edges of the cardstock and the paper. Then tape the paper onto the cardstock so you will have a little pink border showing around each edge.
 It is hard to see with the edge of layout in the frame but it is there.





I have used a background stamp and ink and stamped around the outside of where your photo is going to go. 
Then using a butterfly mask and texture paste to create your background.
I have used the collectables from the kit I purchased from Kitaholics also some of the embellies from the embellishment pack.
 I used two pink doileys, cut one in half and placed under the photo, the photo is raised with foam tape.I you don't have the right colour doiley you can always spray them.
I have used one of the flair buttons from the Gabrielle collection.

Mixed Media Altered Frame - Off the Rails DT

Image
Hello Candy here again. I thought I would do an Off the page project for you all today. I bought this frame a while ago and had it in my stash. Firstly I painted the frame with black gesso and when it is dry cover with some Golden fiber paste on the sides and front of the frame, and the heart. I have used some chipboard pieces from one of our sponsors Memory Maze and painted them with white gesso. I roughly daubed with some liquid pearls, the rougher the better as we want some texture. Dry with a heat gun holding close as you want it to bubble. I then used Lindy's - Blue Hawiian blue, Glimmermist afraid of the dark and sei tumble dry green sprays. I used a small paint brush and daubed here and there. Dry between the colours or you will make mud.  On the heart I sprayed the Lindy's blue hawiian spray and when dry covered with glue and apply some midnight blue glass glitter. I also sprayed the colours around the inside and outside of the frame...

Hi everyone I am back from a little break and ready to ctreate again. Today I have made a lovely little girls card. Using a fancy scroll and a word phrase. I have started with a 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 inch card base. I cut the first pattern paper layer at 51/4x51/4 inches. The second is cut from white glitter paper  and it is cut at 5 x 5 inches. The third is using another pattern paper and cut that one at  4 3/4 x 4 3/4 inches Distress around the edges of all three then tape the first two onto the card base. The third pattern paper curl the right top corner use a little glue to hold this in place. Then tape onto the card using foam tape. I have matted my photo and put foam tape underneath to raise it up. Now for the corner swirl and the word phrase all I did was give them a couple of coats of white ink.  When dry glue onto your card. Add a little piece of lace under the corner roll and then add some flowers to finish off. Mmeor...
