Flower fusion Scrapbook Page

These felt flowers are to die for. The bright happy colors would make any page or card look great! I have used the Earth Elements brads to attach them and I added a rub-on from the Cherished memories pack. These rub-ons are very classy. The paper circles are again from the Bali Breeze pack. Love this paper!
This page is from a Becky Higgins design.

Eastern Blooms Scrapbook page

I have been making some beautiful 8 x 8 pages with the new Summer mini stamp sets and felt flowers. This first one is made with the gorgeous Eastern Blooms stamp set. This one stamps up really well in bright happy colors. I have also used the yummy Bali Breeze papers from the Summer mini. The wording is from the Life definitions stamp set...a great one for scrapbookers!

Holiday Stamping...extras

Here are some extra cards I made with my watercolored images and the Simply sent kit.
The Aqua painter and the watercolor paper make the watercoloring really easy.

Holiday Stamping

I'm back, after a quick beach break!
We spent a week at a beautiful beach house at Phillip Island. Beautiful weather, beautiful scenery, far from the madding crowd. I took lots of photos which I am looking forward to scrapbooking. As usual, I read lots of magazines and took a craft project. Usually I take a little stitchery but this year I decided to take my Simply sent kit which I have had for a while and do some leisurely stamping and try my hand at some watercoloring. I had to pack light as there were four of us plus luggage jammed into the Camry...so I just took my Simple Delights kit which comes with a stamp set and inks, card and some accessories plus glue dots and dimensionals. Because I wanted to try watercoloring, I also took my new For Father and Infinite Goodness (hostess set) stamp sets, a Stazon ink pad, Watercolor paper, Aqua Painter, Paper Snips and my Earth Elements Water color crayons. Except for the extra stamp sets, all this packed into the gorgeous Simply Sent gift box.
I started off just making the two card designs included in the kit. There are enough supplies in the kit to make 10 of these cards plus 10 envelopes.

Summer Scrapping

Happy New Year!
Now that the Christmas rush is over, it's fun time...for a couple of weeks anyway!
Time to have a play with all those new products and catch up on some scrapbooking projects.
Christmas Eve I got a lovely surprise. My Kaiser scrapbook pack arrived that I got with my magazine subscription a while back. I've got a little flip book project half finished...will show you that later. Now I'm on to my son's school trip to New Zealand.
I purchased a couple of packs of Spring break Su paper, decided on a color scheme...Blue Bayou, Soft Sky, Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive...and away I went! It's great to find some extras in my stash that went along with my color scheme too! Using up my growing stash is always a GOOD thing!!! (makes room for more....!!!) Here's a few pages that I've made so far...
