So on too the Creations! 12 layouts and 5 cards!! With My Masking tutorial on YouTube i had a blitz with masking..lol  First of the bat is Pretend Fishing using Cosmic Cricket Garden Variety, Adorit and AC alphas and i missed one photo while setting out the page so i included it with a hidden journalling

   Next is Not as Easy as it looks Using a mix of pattern papers from Basic grey, Jenni Bowlin, Senic Route and Making memoeries, this was a fun layout to do with the random Bo Bunny Stamping and a dash of Grunge board.

OH this is one of my Favs! Those Faces I was just discovering the Tim Hotlz Blending ink techinque with his Distress ink - Walnut stain, also i used my very first sketch Challenge that i created on Photoshop! so really love this layout with all the layers and the mix of different papers...Cosmic cricket, basic Grey, Making memoeries and uuummm...i forget the others...PMSL still this is just lovely with the stamps in the layers and the stitching! Did i even mention that i finally found the instruction for my sewing machine...well more honestly my Dad found them THANK YOU XXOO!!! My Dad the Greatest!

Next is Quick Click! This was a little rushed, just wanted to get the layout done and these photos scrapped to print out my next photo stack...lol Using the Cosmic cricket  Boyfriend range...These photos were of all of my Boys when we stayed a night at the Abby Beach Resort, we were lucky enough to win a free night with $150 food and drinks! Thanks to Good Guys In Bussleton!! Thank you Thank YOU!! so very exciting for the boys! First ever hotel and Elavator...lol First room servise and Spa!!! lol Worse night sleep ever though for Mum and Dad...lol still very thankful though :D Still got a double layout too do with the other hundered photo i took on the day/night..lol

Next is My Speacil Delight   I just had to record my totally girly indugence that happen though out May and June....Yes thats right i am a twilight Fan...lol But i seriouly couldn't choose Jacob or Edward...i'd have both! ..lol well that is until Breaking Dawn....PMSL! I also have a weakness for Brothers and Sisters...lol Just can't beat a great Series....Like Deadwood or Supernatural or Ghost whisper...or House! lol Anyway this was a qucik layout, still not happy with how it turned out but still a learning curb :D

Oh Now this is my very first Card with Kraftin Kimmies Pirate colletion for just $8.00 i picked this up at Deb's Creation Free postage for just stamps! That was it i'm hooked on these really cool! images and i have falling in love with colouring all over again! : D Here is where you can find this Buckener http://www.freewebstore.org/DEBCREATIONS/KKS_Pirate_Collection/cat242964_321113.aspx

June creations

Well this month was a  bit slow, With my rent inspection clean and juggling around justin ever changing roster...i was not very inspired to create....I do admit i had a burst with the Masters challenge in the Scrapbooking Memoeries Mag, but soon after a couple of declined layout submissions my ego was a bit torn...so i think Master is a Miss this year, I'll just keep trying to get published and enjoy creating !! for thats what it's all about keeping the memories and enjoying!!

So June i never got a digital done :(  even with the most cutest photos of my Nephew Zander....so going to scrap them this month he is just sssooo Cute!!!

Still i got an OTP done... a Cook book and a Buget book....even though they will evole into something eles...lol used Cosmic Cricket Early morning pp and some Basic Grey Nookie and pantry pp with felt and dashes of Sassafrass....also a cute bee from Fancy Pants..

Here is a Layout of Ash doing his Funny faces!! this is with the Fancy Pants Rough and tough range, with Glimmer mist splatter (god i'm loven that stuff), Also was thrilled my Dad had found the Instrution manual for my Sewing machine!! HORAY!! now i use properly!! instead of the guess how this works...lol

  This layout was done just after the rent inspections, just and exploiosn of creative build up! lol I loved using the Sassafrass Amplifyed papers on the black cardstock! really packs a punch! This is lockie doing his RAHA!! sound...of a loin? or was it a tiger? or a monster?? lol

Here i wanted to get as many of photos of the boys swinging in their raincoats, just too cute!! I only had the 6x6 pad of the Jungle Bug By Kaisercraft so i did the large bits with My Minds Eye Bloom and Grow collection, the colours matched perfectly!

This layout is done with the Basic grey Lime rickety collection, i wanted to get that art, paint splattered look with the bright colours and the glimmermist splatters, but i don't think i balnaced the colours right, oh well live and learn...

This month of July had be fun!! i have stumbled into the wonderful world of Tim Hotlz creation, i feel as if i've been living under a rock!! the amazing things you can do with ink!! oh i've been missing out!! well now i'm on the band wagon and getting into some ink blending and excitedly wait for some more distress inks and some grunge board elements to arrive so i can get a bit more experimental..lol not to mention my WANT list is getting big!! lol next is Peferct pearls and some distress embossing powders....lol

Anyway thanks for checking out my blog and leave me some love or advise would be wonderful :D

HAPPY SCRAPPEN!! : D
