Paper Issues novemer card sketch

And...it may be a back to front post, I'm posting November's Card sketch after December's, but I had fun with this sketch all the same. Here's the Paper Issues' sketch by Corri Garza... 

And here's my take on the sketch. I had some left overs for another challenge I'm working on, using a leaves embossing folder swiped with Distress inks, in different colours before running through my embossing machine. The paper flowers from Kaszazz, are coloured using Distress inks spritzed with water.Love the pineapple washi tape!! (Wish I could remember where I got it from!)

Kraft Plus Blog Challenge- June 15

Well, now school holidays are here, I might get a bit more Scrapping time in...yay!! I whipped this layout up yesterday for the Kraft Plus Challenge for June!!!  Here is the Inspiration board:

Kraft Plus June Mood Board

I have to say I don't do circles in Scrapping!!! But i was kind of excited to step outside my comfort zone with this one. I broke out the Ezy Press die cutting machine from Kaszazz, and cut me some circles. I actually had fun!!! I had just made a purchase at Valley Girl the day before and their plastic shopping bag was the perfect animal print to use instead of patterned paper! I had some crate paper animal print in my stash too, and found some gorgeous, glittery washi tape in animal print which worked too.

I covered some cardstock in washi and then cut some circles out with the die cutting machine!

Jot mood board March inspiration

Well, another weekend and another layout accomplished! Thanks to the gorgeous inspiration from this months, Jot Magazine Moodboard. It's so fresh, love the colours this month. Here's the board!

And here's my take on the Moodboard!

 My title consists of some rub ons, a label from my P_touch, Heidi Swapp Alphas and  Amy Tangerine alphas. I've also used Am. Crafts Cardstock and a few Kaszazz goodies: card, washi tape. Some water colour paints, with a little Dylusions over the top, some Heidi ephemera and Fiskars threading water punch, (which I haven't used in awhile!) I snuck in some stamped washi images from Stampin Up and finished off with some cute little Kaisercraft epoxy drops. (I recently visited their outlet store at Robina in Queensland, and that was loverly!!!!!!!!)
The story is simply: Our last hoorah in our Queensland home, while we were packing it up for the last time to hand over to new owners. The kids loved the pool, we all did, especially hubby who put his heart and soul into the design and concrete around it! Oh well, we have another new pool waiting for lots of new adventures, but this is an important memory documented!
