C'est Magnifique February Sketch

C'est Magnifique Kits sketch designer, Michele Singh, has come up with a fabulous sketch for you have to have a go at.

The sketch also features the Blue Fern Chipboard Frame that is part of the February Kit, Royal Tea Party.

Maja Designs papers feature along with Prima packaging 

 As well as a few flowers from the February Flower Add On Kit.

The C'est Magnifique February Sketch is open to everyone, you may use your own supplies and the sketch is open to your interpretations.

C'est Magnifique - Celebrate Her Radiance

Hello Again,

I have another project to share created from the beautiful C'est Magnifique February Kit.
This one features some more of the gorgeous papers by Maja Designs and elements from the Feb Main Kit and both of the Flower and Embellishment Add On kits.

One of the 'She' quotes by Kodi Yamada worked well for this photo of Miss E.

SHE...

 'Just has this way of brightening the day.

Celebrate her radiance'  

I went for more of a 'Steampunk' look for this one - Cogs and sprockets were die cut from patterned paper.  I used Spellbinders Donna-Salazar Sprightly Sprokets. 

A few blooms have been clustered together - Manor House Cream Romance and Gold Glitter Roses and Prima flowers feature.  I altered the Manor House Flowers with Amethyst Color Shine and a touch of Coffee Shop Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist. Amethyst was also used for altering the Thickers letters.  I also attached these to some acetate for ease of placement over the other elements.  

The Prima Amore Heart was also altered with Chalkboard Fern along with the Prima Resist Canvas Swirls.

Kaiser Class Act - Grinners are Winners

Happy Monday Greetings to You!!

A little something on the brighter side to share with you today.  This one is with the Kaiser Class Act collection - a new release for this month and available in stores in now.  It's perfect for scrapping those kindy and school precious memories. The primary colours are fun, bright and gender neutral.

The Class Act collection is also quite versatile if you did not want to go with a school theme as I chose to do.

This happy moment of my two girls was captured recently whilst away at over the Christmas/ New Year period.  Their smiles, cheeky grins and giggles will always be a winner for me.

The background paper is 'Complete' - I used the reverse side:

And used a small hole punch to punch out note book imprints.

The background paper was also altered with a Twiddleybitz Chevron Stencil used with Tattered Angels Black Chalkboard, Candy Apple Red Glimmer Mist and Heidi Swapp Color Shine Mint Green and Mustard.  A little Gesso over the top and some stamping done with a Kaiser Numbers Texture clear stamp.

Strips cut from the Paper Pad were arranged over the top along with a few Collectables and some paper rolling elements.

Wishing you Hope, Peace, Joy...

Warm Greetings! 

I have another beyond the page project to share with you all today.  This one combines the Kaiser Occasional BTP Christmas Tree Photo Display with the Merry and Bright Collection. 

This is what the Photo Display looks like in it's natural state:

The outside edges were painted with Brown Umber and the inside covered with various papers from the Merry and Bright collection.  I did find that covering the back piece first was easier than trying to do it when it was assembled with the top insert piece attached over the top. 

The outer edge of the tray was 'trimmed' with a little decoration. A thin strip of paper punched with a decorative edge was attached around the edge. Helmar 450 Gel Glue did a fine job of this. The bond is strong and dries clear.

A window box effect was created with some gate wooden flourishes attached on either side of the bottom opening.

Fussy cut elements from the Merry and Bright 'Vivacious'  paper were layered with a few Collectables.  Seriously I love these things, just can't say enough how versatile they are.  They are perfect on their own for adding a little accent or layering with other elements.

Larger and mini paper blooms were added around the photo.  Coral and Honey coordinate beautifully with this range.
