Travel Page layout

With this page i challenged myself with using layers!! and incorporating multi photos, i seem to only use one photo when im entering a challenge (mostly) but in my private stuff seem to use at least 2 or 3 photos per layout. Papers 7gypsies and stamps. A mask in the corner, compass, Tim Holtz flower die and tulle flowers on top.

Boys Dinosaur Banner


These papers are from MME and are rather old now..3yrs ago? But Still so gooood! The sizes are about 20cm wide and 30cm high. I still like the clean cut lines without to much fuss, and you have room for a photo on each one to hang in a bedroom.  I made them in triangles and rectangles with circles out of each corner (with a circle punch,easy) .

Altered Canvas

An altered canvas swap for Faith Nz Aquarius. I had no idea what to do, so just went with the flow. glimmer misted with purples and coffee colours, stamped onto tissue wrap and glued down. Texture paste on the corugated boards and distressed with re-inkers (lloovve doing this) Glued on flowers, velvet leaves, twigs and pine cones (both from the south island) and of course lichen....Hoping to capture a Fairy Glen. And the canvas had to have a quote of inspiration too.  Dont you just love it!

Tussie Mussie :Woodland theme.

This Tussie Mussie with a woodland theme made me think of Little Red Riding Hood. So i did the colours around that. With a small posie of flowers and lichen and embossed with a bark finish and dry embossed. inside a 4 wooden pegs wrapped with natural fibres/cottons.

G45 Olde Curiosity shop layouts




4 Heritage layouts...I  created these from the G45 collection "Olde Curiosity Shoppe" as i felt it was quite a challenge to use these papers for layouts. I think i did well! I also used these, one each week , as a page map for the classes i ran using the 12x12 pad, stickers, and alphas as a kit.
