Cheeky I Love You Layout for ***2Crafty Chipboard***!

  Hello sweet creative souls, 

For today I am going back in time a little because when the new "Beauties" collection arrived at my doorstep I really needed to use a baby picture of Abbey with this amazing phrase by 2Crafty Chipboard. 
"I love you more than the sun the moon and all the stars" 
The phrase was treated with two layers of white gesso and then some white embossing powder the same as I did with the word cheeky. I also separated the phrase in four pieces to make it more the focal point on my layout next to my picture. 

Cheeky I Love You:

2Crafty Chipboard used: 

Foliage Set 10

I Love You More Than Title 

Fancy Set 1 Borders `

Mini Word Set 4

The leaves are treated with one layer of white gesso and then with some spray which I added three times and I used a whipe to take away the excess and dried with a heat tool. I did the same with the border piece. 

The flowers are handmade with some new dies I just purchased. I also did a bunch of fussy cutting for this layout. On the background I did a lot of machine stitching and I used a stencil & added some nuvo drops on the stencil. 

Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely 2Crafty Chippies and create and have fun while doing so. Have a blessed & sunny week!

Delicate Winterdays Layout for ***Maja Design*** & ***De Hobbyboerderij*** + Playing at More Than Words!!

Goodmorning lovely bloggers,

Oh was I happy to get my design team package last week the new collection is such a pretty one, that I totally am in LOVE with it. Tomorrow I will be teaching some small classes at a retreat called "Kreadoe" which is much like CHA but a little smaller as it is in The Netherlands. I will be at a stand called De Hobby Boerderij were I will be using a bunch of Maja Design papers so if you will be visiting this retreat please come by to say hello ;-) Today I will be showing you a 12 by 12 layout using this wonderful new collection hope you like it.

Delicate Winterdays:

I did some handstitching on my layout...a while ago I never thought I could make a layout without stitching but now I it's rare if I do. So I guess things aways chance in scrapbooking. The chipboard pieces are treated with snoweffects the same as I did with the pretty flowers I used on this layout. I fell in love with this sweet picture I got from pinterest that I had to use it.

I really enjoy making wintery layouts although I dislike Winter more than the other seasons.  The centers of the flowers are made with mini prills and little wooden balls (only the larger ones) some of the leaves in the flowers clusters are from a die by sizzix which I adore.

Guest Designer for ***Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog***

Hi everyone,

I hope you are enjoying the new week, I really love Monday's because they are my scrappy day's...

Today I would like to share a layout I've made for Gloria Stengel her challenge blog:

***Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog***

  When she asked me I was really honored because she is one of my favorite scrappers all time.

I love her work for Graphic 45 very much and was really excited that she made her own challenge blog & so successfully. 

Challenge #16

Who Loves School and Office Supplies?

Most paper crafters also love school and office supplies, We love crayons, markers, shaped paperclips, notepads, folders, and more! If you hoard school and office products, get them out! Use them up! Use at least one item that is really a school or office supply on your project.

One talented participant will receive this prize donated by Lindy's Stamp Gang, a $30 Gift Certificate to the Lindy's Stamp Gang store!

Lindy’s Stamp Gang is the creative” baby” of Lindy Plakinger. She passed away in 2008 after bravely battling illness. She was a self-made cartoonist, loved drawing, crafting, designing new products, and creating her funny cartoon characters! One of her greatest joys was traveling to stamping and scrapbooking conventions across theUS, demo-ing to her heart’s content with her sister, and giggle partner, Vicki!

Lindy’s Stamp Gang will continue, as was her hope, and dream. Her husband and daughter have taken over the company keeping her creativity alive. Tracey, (her daughter), has always been a “jar filler” in the background of Lindy’s Stamp Gang, but is now trying to fill some incredible shoes!
