June Stamp Club



We had these great bags with our order and everyone has been using them at Stamp Club. So we could tell them apart the challenge for this month was to create a tag to go with it. I wanted to go with the same colouring and some of my favourite things. I then had the idea to add my business card and the details
 Colours: very vanilla, rose red, old olive
Stamps: best yet and rough type alpha (SU)
 Finishing touches: rose red stitched ribbon, victoria crochet trim, hodgepodge hardware, round tab punch, rose red DSP, beautiful wings embosslits and lots of tags die (SU), honeydew bakers twine (the twinery), rhinestones,(kaiser), definition sticker

May Stamp Club

Last month I got the textured impressions folders in my order so I decided to use one in this months challenge. The challenge was a sketch you can find it here. I have recently been going through my Resene decorating magazines and found a great retro colour combo. Fun. I thought the daisy flower fitted really well. I made it with a daisy disc that was hiding in my Mum's cupboard. A great tool. Colours: white, old olive, early espresso, tangerine tango, more mustard
Stamps: little pieces, best yet
Finishing touches: distressing tools, spiral punch, textured impression folder, stitching, antique brad, daisy disc

Creative Crop Layouts

After a slow start I pushed on and had a blast trying out the challenges at the Creative Crop at Big Picture Classes. It took a bit to sort photos and products to do what I wanted but once I had my packs together I was away. With the time difference and other things happening over the weekend I really only had Saturday night so it was rather a late one as I was on a roll. Here are a few of the pages I got done. Great challenges, great fun. Use the sketch provided
Create a fantastic frame
Use found products
Use a flag on your page
use three colours that lie beside each other on the colour wheel

Big Picture Classes Creative Crop

Seems like forever since I have been creating. Mainly due to the fact that I have had several projects on the go at once and my desk was a mountain of to do's and haven't been put aways. I have finally managed to conquer the mountain and am looking forward to some scrapping with Big Picture Classes Creative Crop. Big Picture Classes

Next time I might go more daring and add the yellow.
