More WOW to share

Back again with 2 more pages to share with you from my featured week over on the Words Or Whatever Blog. As always, I am having a ball playing with this fabulous chipbopard

Who could resist that SMILE
A gorgeous photo of my nephew and his beautiful daughter taken at Easter time which was also his birthday.
I have used 2 pieces of WOW chippie, the title 'Who could resist that SMILE' and the Filigree Butterfly.

I loved being able to chop the title and split it on the page.





I loved the finish look of the butterfly



Here is the finished page



It's a pirates life for me
This is my very own pirate on his birthday, he looked so cool!!

The featured pieces of chipboard from WOW are the Pirate Pack, the Skull 2 Pack  and  the Classic Alphabet in Uppercase was used for the title. All perfect pieces to complete the page.









Really happy with this page, one of my favourites.



Thanks for visiting, I will be back tomorrow with more to share.

September New Release @ WOW

Evening All!

Thought I should catch up with my blogging over the next few days after a fabulous weekend away retreating. Tonight I have 2 pages to share with you that showcase the very cool new chipboard by WOW.

Both pages are very masculine and showcase one of my son's favourite things.

The chipboard was the perfect addition to both pages.

The first page features the Barbed Wire Coil and the group of soldiers from the Soldier Pack.

WOW1604 BARBED WIRE COIL

WOW1602 SOLDIER PACK

Totally cool stuff

My next page showcases more of the very cool Soldier chipboard and some fancy corner pieces.

The boots and Rifle have been inked in layers to give them the Army look.

The corners have been left naked.

You will also spot an old favourite, the Barbed Wire Border (C1503)

The title has been created using the Classic Alphabet Lowercase (C1385)

Thank you for visiting my blog, hope to have more for you tomorrow.

Sharing my week over at WOW

So far I have featured 2 pages over on the WOW Blog, lots of chipboard goodness to inspire you all.
Hope you can drop in for a visit.

A wedding page to start the week, my Nephew's wedding.

The chipboard Vintage Horse Drawn Carriage (WOW1591) was the perfect starting point. I love that it is the back of the carriage. I have coloured the chipboard using both ink and pens.

It has some doodling using a metallic gold pen and then I have finished off with some glossy accents.

The background effect on the cardstock has been created using the 12x12 AltaMATZ Pattern 1 (ALTO010) and some Mr Hueys White Colour Mist.

 

Such a {perfect}day

Next page shows off my gorgeous boy.The photos were taken on a camping trip last October a

I have used a number of WOW chipboard pieces in different ways, but think they all work well together.

- Title 'I love you the the moon and back' (WOW1539)

I have used Chrystallina Kindy Glitz to higlight the 'I love you' part of the title. 'To the moon and back' has been inked using three shades of blue to graduate from light to dark, simple blending that has a fabulous impact.

- Clock (WOW1512)

Inked using Pinecone Versa Ink

- Stars from the Rocket & Space Set (WOWC449) have been left bare.

I love you TO THE MOON AND BACK

WOW's August Challenge - Colour Challenge

This month at Words Or Whatever we are having a colour challenge! 

Here is the pallet to work from:

AQUA    PURPLE    CREAM

Here is how YOU enter:

• Create a layout using the challenge colours...aqua, purple and cream, and include at least one piece of WOW chipboard.
• Post your layout on your blog, then enter your projects via the linky on this post.  Be sure to share the actual blog post address, not your home blog address. 
• There will be 2 winners. One voted on by our DT, and a random draw.
• Remember to go to your local store and grab some WOW chipboard and have a go at this month's challenge.
• Entries close Friday 14 September 2012 at midnight.

It's great to see so many variations of the challenge from the DT girls, there is a ton of inspiration over on the blog for you to check out.

Here's my take on the colour challenge, I've used the Whirly Flourish and a Mini Birdhouse to decorate my page. 

Our Little Cuppie Cake

My first official WOW post

Check out what I have been doing over at  WOW .

Two gorgeous August's new chipboard releases to show you.

I was thrilled to receive a delicate 51/2" x 51/2" square frame which I have covered with black ink as a base and then used a clear embossing powder, glitter and a heat gun to put a raised, glittery finish to it.

New Release WOW1576 Decorative Circle Frame Medium.

Sharing a photo of my great niece and her Mummy having a cuddle at our family Easter gathering.

Sneaking a cuddle





Here is another new piece, a gorgeous 111/2" x 111/2" square frame. I have applied a coat of white gesso and then I've sprayed the frame with a few layers of two different sprays, Christmas Glimmer Mist and Mister Hueys Hot Dog. Once the frame was dry to touch, I randomly swiped Brilliance Ink in Blue and Gold. The Final layer was applying Glossy Accents to the entire frame while it was still drying which allowed the colours to blend together.

New Release WOW1578 Decorative Square Frame Large.

The things I love the most

Scrapbook Savvy - Pink Paislee Declaration

I am so in love with this collection and was thrilled when Sarah informed me it was heading my way as my Scrapbook Savvy DT kit. This is a collection I have been wanting to buy for quite awhile, but I always worry when a collection is specifically released for an American holiday.  I never should have worried!! Love the red, blue and cream and there is no reference to the holiday itself. The patterned papers are just amazing!!

So it is no surprise creating with this collection over the weekend was a breeze.  3 pages came together so quickly and I am love them all. I am still very tempted to buy some more of these papers.
If you are looking to purchase the range, Sarah still has some available here

Hope you find some inspiration in these pages. Thanks for dropping in.

My final post for 2Crafty

After 2 years with 2Crafty chipboard, tomorrow sadly brings an end to my fabulous journey.
I must shout out a huge thank you to Vanessa for allowing me to share my scrapbooking for so long, it has been amazing!
You are an incredibly generous and caring soul and it has been an absolute honor to create for you.

Best wishes to 2Crafty and the new design team.

Two of my last few pages done were very close to my heart and have been lovingly created for my 2 younger sisters. Both of them capturing special memories of some very amazing people.
