Die Cutting Fun

Hi everyone, thanks for joining me here today.

I have a layout using loads of die cuts that I created some time back that I wanted to share with you all, "Love"

All of the embellishments including my title (apart from the frames) were die cut... it's amazing what you can create with the wonderful range of dies available nowadays....

This is one of my favourite pics of my Bill and I, at the Titanic theatre restaurant...

For this layout I have used loads of Spellbinders dies: Anemone Flower Topper, Daisy Flower Topper, Bitty Blossoms and Foliage... to create all these flowers and leaves.

I just love the huge variety of dies that are available now....

Your Daily Dose

Hi everyone, so glad you can join me today, 

Today was my turn to share over on PTT presents Your Daily Dose, so here's my little bit of inspiration...

I wanted to share an acrylic scrapping layout I created to hopefully get your creative mojo flowing.... I love creating with different mediums for my layouts, and Clear Scraps have created these great acrylic shapes that you can use to create your layouts on....they are so much fun...

 I coloured the acrylic with some alcohol inks for a subtle colour and pattern effect

 I used Scrap FX chipboard embellishments and words coloured with Smooch
and added some Film Strip Ribbon from Ideaology

 Some metal cogs added to the Scrap FX movie camera give it a realistic 3D look

Colour Challenge at Party Time Tuesdays

Just wanting to share a project I created for the latest colour challenge over at Your Daily Dose from Party Time Tuesdays challenge blog....

I love to make altered bottles..... and these colours lent themselves to creating yet another one....
I started with an unusual triangle shaped bottle...

I used plenty of Maya Gold paints in colours to match the challenge... Maya Gold goes onto any surface and gives an amazing shine (the photo's don't show the shine)...
To embellish the bottle I used a Scrap FX Keyhole from the Keyholes pack and the Steampunk Key, along with some Prima flowers and a vintage image I found.

and now for some close ups....

 

 

Hope you will come and join in the challenge over at Party Time Tuesdays...
