Be Yourself - Art Journal page

Hello Everyone

I hope that you are having a good week! ;-)
I am so looking forward to the coming weekend and getting some scrappy time in! ;-)

Last week I did this art journal page and it was really one that really took me on a journey.

I was not sure how it was going to turn out.

I think it turned out okay.

I used my distress oxides and stamps, along with rub-ons from Basic Grey that I have had for years and years. I created the daises with Gel Medium and a stencil and then added colour to them and white gel pen highlights.

The rub-on set had this sentiment too and I thought it would be perfect.

I also added the little elephant character below! Elephants are one of my favourite animals.

This page really did take me on an art journey and I love that it pushed me to try different things and also pushed my styling! ;-)

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I hope you have a fabulous Thursday!

Live in the Moment - Penelope Dee - Diamond Layne

Hello Everyone

I am so blessed to have Penelope Dee send my goodies to play with! ;-)

Their last collection was Diamond Layne and I made a large tag, using this pretty collection.

I played with my distress inks and oxides to create the background, along with Penelope Dee stamps.

I fussy cut some elements and also used some die-cuts.

Here is a close-up.

I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love my distress oxides.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I hope you have a fabulous day!

General Card - BoBunny Petal Lane Collection

Hello Everyone

Today I am sharing a fairly simple card.

I used the BoBunny Petal Lane collection, along with a flower stamp.

I got the stamp set with a craft magazine.

I coloured the stamped flowers with water colour pencils.

They made for a pretty, friendship card! ;-)

I think sometimes, simple is perfect! ;-)

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I love your visits! ;-)

Have a super day!

Birthday Card - ScrapBerrys My Little Star Collection

Hello Everyone

 

I hope that you had a really good weekend.

I had a really busy, busy weekend and it meant that I actually did not spend a minute in my craft room! This is very unusual for me, but sometimes life and home calls and one does what has to be done! ;-)

 

Anyways, Joe and I went to a 1yr old Birthday the weekend before and so I made a card for the sweet little man.

 

 

Apologies that it's not the best photo, but I quickly snapped it before I popped it in the envelope.

 

This collection is really so sweet and so perfect for these littlies! ;-)

 

I hope that you can have a good Monday and that it is kind to you.

Thanks for stopping by.

Farewell Card - BoBunny Wild Card

Hello Everyone

I hope that you are all well and happy. ;-)

I have a masculine farewell card to share with you today.

I used Wild Card from BoBunny.  It was  fabulous masculine collection.

It's not the greatest photo, but I think you get the idea! ;-)

I also added some Pentart rust patches, which were so cool for this masculine card.

I think masculine cards are certainly harder to create than feminine ones! LOL

Anyways, I hope you have a gorgeous day today!

Thanks so much for your visits.
