Guesting For Ronda Palazzari

I was quite honoured to be asked to create something for my gorgeous friend Ronda

I used a couple of stencils from her range at The Crafter’s Workshop 

I created these two cards (the lower one using a Scrapmatts coffee pot)

And a layout.

You can read how I made them HERE

I really love stencils and love being able to use them in different ways.

Hope something inspires you to create.

Guesting for Mei Li Paperie–Inspired By Challenge

As a guest for Mei Li Paperie I was thrilled
To be able to create something for their “inspired by” challenge

I used some of the Mei Li Paperie packaging
(the products were packed in a gorgeous blue paper bag).
I snipped some of the perforation edge to create the banners.

I used some orange water colour paint to alter the Heidi Swapp paper

I was totally inspired by the scribbles and patterns that the challenge picture contained
So used the cool Basic Grey paper and added some pencil scribbles.

And what it was inspired by

Guesting For Mei Li Paperie–Colour Challenge

This month I have the absolute honour
Of being a guest for the Hong Kong based scrap shop Mei Li Paperie.
First up was a magnificent colour challenge.

The very best thing I loved about this challenge
Was that it inspired me to use a photo that had been taunting me since I took it.

You have to love a challenge that allows you to do that!

I loved the colours in this challenge.

Which were all perfect for using the products the girls at Mei Li Paperie sent me.

I used:
Chic Tags Cloud 9 Mini Icons
Chic Tags Cloud 9 Squares
BasicGrey Highline Paper So Fresh
BasicGrey Highline Title Stickers
Maggie Holmes Styleboard Triangle Studs
Amy Tangerine Plus One Other Half Glitter Foam Alpha Taffy

Don’t you just love the colours in the mood board??
I just looooove the grungy background.

 

You can see all the details HERE
Hope you feel inspired to create and enter

Silhouette Crafts Australia–Guest

Feel quite privileged to have the opportunity to be a guest blogger for Silhouette Crafts Australia

The lovely Tania sent me a packet of Printable Cotton Canvas, from Silhouette, to play with.

I used my Silhouette Cameo and cut a few different cuts, including this cool circle one from Raquel

I also used pieces from D-lish Scraps 

All to create this page

I also used some other cuts

That I painted, stitched or stamped (love this stamp from Cocoa Daisy)

Added some flair from The Greatest View 

And created this page

I also used the canvas to create a simple card.
