March Monthly Pack

is available at Scrapville, and it is absolutely beautiful.  Email Janet and she will arrange a kit for you

March Monthly Pack.
My Private Happiness from The ScrapCake $25
I am excited about this month's Pack with all it's lovely soft colours and patterns, and matched up with the most beautiful embellishments. The Pack contains 2 x cardstock, 5 x DSPP, 2 x 7x12 DSPP, 3 mixed sized paper and material flowers, 3 x small paper flowers, lace trim, a bling runner strip, mixed matching journalling tags, and gorgeous foam Thickers. There's great product value in this pack. I really can't wait to see where your inspiration takes you. I hope you will get a lot out of this colourful pack, in both quantity and enjoyment. Our NEW Gorgeous Flowers will also be available in-store at Scrapville, and there is a wide range to choose from.
The Pack

Please note that there will be a limited number of packs available in store, and once they're gone they're gone! The Packs are available NOW.

There are also a few "Boy Themed" packs available - only whilst stocks last. A change in the colour of the Thickers, the the 3 mixed sized paper and material flowers, and the 2 x 7x12 DSPP sheets better co-ordinate. 

I really, really, really cant wait to design with these gorgeous papers and embellishments.  I hope the snail mail hurries up

Deb ♥

PS:  Exciting news soon - stay tuned

Sketch #202

This is my farewell sketch for Nuts about Sketches.  This past 6 months have gone by so quickly.  Thank you to Shawn for allowing me the honour of working with your sketches, they are all so fabulous.

Goodluck to the next crop of  DT gals at Nuts about Sketches - you will have so much fun

Again, I find myself apologising for the sub standard scan - I need to work out what I am doing wrong.

Til next time

Scrapville Feb pack - Layout #4

The Scrapville monthly packs are so full of goodness that you can get at least 4 layouts and a card from them

Here is the 4th layout using the pack

The scan is a lot dodgy, I'm not sure what is going on with it.  Maybe I need to use the old printer to scan my layouts as that seemed to do a far better job, and is connected to the kids computer so is still in operation.

No doubt I will be back later as I am in catch up mode

Scrapville Feb/Mar Sketch

The sketches at Scrapville are released on the 15th of each month and you have until midnight on the 14th of the following month to play along with a chance of winning a prize.

I was late getting my example done this month, but I finally sent it off to Janet

Here is the fabulous sketch designed by Anita



And here is my example

And here is the card sketch


My example will follow, when I get the courage to send it ;)  I have tried a new technique and being so not a card maker I am a bit unsure.

-----------------------------------------------

As well I used the sketch and my layout for the Open Challenge at Sketches in Thyme, you still have a bit of time to enter the challenges.

Scrapville February Monthly pack

...has been released

Hi Everyone, and welcome to February's Monthly Pack.  This month's pack is Kissing Booth from BasicGrey.  A bit of a mix this month, we have pinks and reds, birds,  wispy flowers and bold flowers as well.  I'm betting we're going to get a few different takes on this one!

Kissing Booth Monthly Pack by BasicGrey

In the main pack we have ribbed cardstock in Black and White, 5 x DSPPs, a 12x12 Alpha sticker sheet, a patch of lovely lace, 3 cute buttons, some matching bling, red/pink velvet ribbon and cream twill.  Lots of goodness there!

Kissing Booth Booster Pack by BasicGrey

In the Booster we have an 12x12 element sticker sheet with all sorts of bits and pieces to compliment your pack, 2 x DSPPs, a bit of pink gimp and a chocolate brown piece of pom pom bobble and a 6x12 black glitter cardstock, just for a bit more bling!  It all ties in nicely, and as usual there is plenty to play with!

You really should pop on over and see what the girls came up with - sen-freakin-sational, is all I can say.

Here is my first effort:

Thanks for stopping by, there will be more layouts coming soon using this fabby pack
