Sassy Scrapper - GDT Reveal #1

I am super happy to say that I am Guest Designing this month over at SASSY SCRAPPER.  I thank Olga for the lovely invitation and for the opportunity of showcasing the gorgeous Glitz Design CASHMERE DAME collection which is available in the store HERE.

I absolutely totally **heart** this collection and my little heart swooned as soon as I saw the peeks of it.  The colours, can I say, are fabulous.  The chevrons, honeycomb and retro elements add a touch of funk and edge. The shabby florals add a touch of sweetness for the girly girl in me.  **Sigh**   

For my first project,  Cashmere Dame papers were combined with 'Whatnots', a few' Puffy Stickers' and 'Giant Rhinestones'.
  
Coordinating Prima Rosarian Perles, Interlude Felt Red Roses and Bel Canto Yellow blooms, along with a stunning Manor House Fantasy flower were added to the mix.  
 The Twiddleybitz Ornate Frame was cut in half and inked black for contrast. Part of it is shown below.
 A Pink Paislee Artisan Butterfly was misted with Heidi Swapp Mustard Colour Spritz and added over the top.
A closer peek at the beautiful Manor House Fantasy bloom.  I actually pulled the bloom apart and added the larger bottom petals to the top of the layout and the smaller middle and centre piece finishes off the bottom cluster.  This was also altered with HS Mustard Colour Spray for a more intense yellow toning.  The other part of the Twiddleybitz Ornate Frame peeks out from under the floral cluster.

TSC & MHC - 'You mean so much to me'

Hello again lovely people,

Today I have a some project shares combining The ScrapCake 'Sweet Childhood' papers and Manor House Creations Flowers. And again,  I have to say, what a lovely combination!

First up a tag project



Which I then incorporated in the design of this layout
 
A few more Manor House flowers were added to the floral arrangement of the tag to balance it out.
Hand cut and paper elements are also layered under the tag. 
To create smaller blooms, I removed the centres from some of the flowers and used these alone.  The remaining petals were lightly misted with Patina glimmer mist and also incorporated. Petite Roses replace the centres.

Products used:  The ScrapCake – Sweet Childhood Collection:  Big Dreams, Little Me, A Child’s Love, Sweet Innocence, Oh So Cute, 6” x 6” Paper Pad, Die CutsManor House Creations – Darling, Petite Roses – Soft Pink, Idyllic – Pink, Plain Jane.

MHC - 'Laughter'

Hello, HELLO!!

Things have been a little quiet on the blog front lately but I plan on catching up - lots to update over the next few days :)

Kicking off today with a project I did for MHC last month - I had lots of fun putting this step by step together. You can check it out HERE on the Manor House Creations blog.

The colours are perhaps a little different to what I would normally work with but with saying this, I just totally heart the blue and orange together.   A Twiddleybitz Chevron Mask was used with some texture paste and glimmer mists to alter the background.

The photo is of my gorgeous niece Mia and nephew Koan. They are twin siblings.  This photo makes me smile so much.  It depicts them perfectly as they are always laughing.  Just love how happy and carefree they are.
I combined a bit of older and newer for this one - New papers from The ScrapCake Summer City collection combined with a splash of some older Webster's Yacht club. 

An assortment of Manor House blooms feature - previous Summer, Winter and Spring collections along with some of these NEW beauties -
