Cocoa Daisy September 2015 "Daydream" kit

Released today "Daydream" is a gorgeous kit
And the September add ons are equally delicious.
Here are the three layouts I have made so far.

Love the oranges in this kit.

Had to scrap this photo.
Loved those letter stickers.

Make sure you head on over to see what the other design team members created.
I have a feeling this kit will be a sell out.

Jot Magazine's August 2015 Mood Board Challenge

If you asked me what my favourite colour was
I would reply "all of them".
Because it's true.
I love colour.
But secretly my favourite has always been blue.

August 2015 - by Amanda copy

This month's mood board challenge at Jot Magazine made me smile.
Loved all the shades and tones of blue that Amanda had collected
And knew I wanted to keep to the feel of the mood board
So started with a wash of blues.

The rest was as easy as telling a story…

It certainly threw me.
I even had to pay for some help.

But the end result worked and I sighed when it was done.

Make sure you see what the rest of the Design Team (and guests) created.
