Olivia Canvas

Hi there, I have just finished this canvas for my friend's daughter who turned 6 last week.  I painted Glimmer Mist on the edges of the canvas and the Kaisercraft wooden dress form.  The papers are My Mind's Eye Tickled Pink and the banners I cut out from the new Spellbinder's Pennants Die.  TFL!

April Sketch Challenge

Managed to finally do this month's sketch challenge at HBS!  Using the new Bo Bunny Blast Off! and some misting techniques with my new Glimmer Mist Bell Bottom Jeans.  TFL!

Glimmer Mist, Canvas & Acetate Idea

Hi there, was just doing some blog surfing and came across a great tutorial posted by Nicole Pomeroy making flowers using Glimmer Mist & Acetate.  I thought I would have a play and this is what I came up with.  I misted both acetate and canvas petals cutout with my Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die and then heated the acetate to curl it a bit.  I found that if I heated the petals individually the bent them with some tweezers I got a better result.  I then layered up the petals and held them together with a brad and then decided to spritz it again with Glimmer Mist.

Hope you find this idea useful! If you give it a go let us see what you come up with!

Things I Love

This is a submission for a call at Scrapbooking Memories.  Favourite Things.

So I decided to branch out and do some more photography of things other than the human/dog kind!  Saw this layout in the Page Maps 2 book in a digital version.  Using Basic Grey Pyrus papers, Glimmer mist (background, handmade flower & chipboard frame/alphas) Coffee Shop.

After the frustration of my previous project I really enjoyed putting this layout together and in fact took the photos after the layout was finished.  Another first!  TFL

No More Photos

This is my almost 5 year old son at his first school disco in December last year.  Not the most cooperative lad - no photos and no dancing!  Too cute - when he gets older the girls will love that moody shyness!  Guffaw!
