Stuck?! June 15th Sketch

Brrrrrrrrrr!! It is a little chilly here this morning.

It's time to share my take on the second Stuck?! sketch for this month.

Here is June15th Sketch



This is what I did with it.
I've used a photo I took last month of Harrison and his very close friend Tyler. They have known each other since mother's group when they were only a few month's old and have been great pals ever since.
I spy a few pieces of WOW chipboard, both pieces '2013' and the title 'Mates forever' have been covered with ink and then outlined with a white pen.

Mates Forever

WOW June Challenge

This months challenge consists of a few things. 

SKETCH + B/W PHOTO + WOW

This awesome sketch has been borrowed (with permission) from Color Conspiracy

 & was designed by the awesome Nine.  

To be in the running to win some great chipboard products, all you have to do is a layout  using the sketch above, a black & white photo & your favourite WOW product on your project. 

It could be the New Wood Veneers, altaMATZ, altaWORDS or the New release Chipboard.

Easy peasey!! 

So to get you started here's my take on the challenge and if you can't tell, I LOVED doing this page!!

The chipboard featured on my page are two domino's from the Domino Pack. They have been covered with black ink, the dots added using Kindy Glitz and then a thick coat of Glossy Accent

A heart from the Mini Heart Pack has been covered using dimensional paint

And a start from the Skewed Star Pack lightly covered with Brilliance Ink

You love to play

Remember to head over to the blog to see what some of the other DT girls have done with the challenge.

Entries can be uploaded to our Facebook page or emailed to:  challenges@websterenterprises.com.au
Entries are due by 26th July 2013.

50th Wedding Anniversary Album (Final Part)

I completely forgot to post this to my blog after doing so well.

Well this is the final share of the album that was given to my parents for their anniversary.

The first few photographs are collages of my two younger sisters and their pages.

These pages were scrapped by a very special lady in Brisbane, Debbie Blanchard.

She is a very dear friend of my sister's, Leanne & Mandy and she was thrilled to be apart of the mammoth project. She was able to help us with the album and created four gorgeous pages. 

These were sent with the girls when they flew down for the party.

The custom-cut chipboard titles and Mini People Pack were decorated by me, using gold paint and glitter Mod Podge.

So next up to the podium is Mandy, the second youngest daughter

and then finally Sharon, the baby of the family, and then there were five :)

The next two pages are for the great-grandchildren.

My parents are blessed to have two, so far, they are Jordan who is 8 and Alexis is two.

Both are from my eldest sister's son.

I created the title using a mixture of Classic Lowercase & Block Lowercase Alphabet, covered with gold ink

The final two pages are of my parents and a family shot taken on their anniversary when all of us were together for the weekend.

The title 'Celebrating you' was another custom piece covered with gold ink. The butterflies from the Butterfly Element Pack  were randomly covered with gold and aqua inks. Once dry, they were coated with Crackle Accent and jazzed up with some rhinestones.

The Heart Trio was covered with gold paint, stamped using a flourish stamp and aqua ink and then finished with a nice coat of Glossy Accents.

The title We Are Family was simply inked with gold and I then added a few gemstones to highlight some of the letters. Not sure if you can see, but this page also features the last time we had a family portrait taken, about 1986. About time we updated.

Well that's all folks.

Thank you for allowing me to share this very special project with you and I hope you have found something to inspire you to create.

Thanks for dropping in.

We are Family - WOW Week

Good Morning All!

The page I am sharing today was created last weekend, with a few modifications added late Thursday night.

On the layout I have used a 2013 from the 2013 Pack and 3 hearts form the Mini Heart Pack.
They have been covered using bronze ink and stickles to add a little bit of shimmer to the page.







The WOW title We are Family has been covered by blending 3 different ink colours together to match the papers. Once the ink was dry, I have sealed it using Crackle Accent.







If you are wondering what I added at the last minute? I decided it needed a few flowers and pearls to give the page a bit more dimension.

We are family




I hope you have enjoyed my WOW Week, I will have one more share of the album tomorrow to finish off my week. Thanks again for dropping by.

WOW June New Releases

There has been another awesome release by Words Or Whatever this  month.
Introducing their gorgeous new Wood Veeners products and more fabulous new AltaMATZ

I've had so much fun playing with them all.

My first page features my gorgeous boy deciding to ride around the yard butt naked at a much younger age.

I have used the new Wood Veneer Mini Filmstrips and a Mini Camera.
Both pieces have been covered with Pinecone Ink. The filmstrips has been backed with patterned paper and the camera has been highlighted with gold pen.
I have also used a 6inch Corner Flourish AltaMatz and Distress Ink on the background.

50th Wedding Anniversary (Part Three) - WOW Week

Hello and welcome.

I was planning to share another layout with you today, but I had forgotten to photograph the page on the weekend and last night when I arrived home it was very dark and dreary. I will hopefully have that page for you tomorrow or Saturday.

So today I will continue to share my parent's album with  you.

We are up to child number two. She is my big Sis and a scrapbooker in training.
She was amazing help with the album, could not have finished it without her.




The chipboard titles 'Leanne' & 'Eldest Daughter' are again custom-cut by WOW, they have been covered with gold paint and then finished off with Glitter Mod Podge.




Her family collage page features a butterfly from the Butterfly Elements Pack and little people from the Mini People Pack 



I have blended gold and aqua inks on the butterfly and covered the mini people with gold ink.




Next up on the family roll call is child number three and that would be me!

The chipboard titles 'Kerryn' & 'Middle Child' have had the same treatment gold paint base and glitter Mod Podge finish.






My family collage page features Mini People and a Mini Heart to make sure our little angel in heaven is included on our page




There is still more to share, but I think that will do it for today.

Thank you for visiting the blog, hope you will check back again.
