Maya Rd Mini book




I made this little photo display from a Maya Road accordian book. This is a real bargain bit of home decor as the book is only £2.75 and all I needed to complete it were a few stickers and some paper from my scraps box. This is a really versatile little book - would be great as a mini album and also to hang vertically if you punched some holes in the top and threaded with ribbon.

New High Hope Stamps now in stock

This card has been made using some of the new High Hope Stamps that are now in stock. Stamps used for this card: Mary J Teacher Angel, School background and Teachers Desk. I stamped the School background multiple times on the background paper. These stamps would be fab for those end of term cards for your children's teachers. Don't forget to check out all the other fantastic stamps in this range.

Scrapbook Page - Bubble Fun


This is the first Scrapbook page I have ever made. The pictures are of my little girl Danni on her 3rd Birthday having lots of bubble fun in our garden. I have used Karen Foster April 12" x 12" Scrapbook paper. Check out this great range as we stock all the monthly papers. I have also used lots of co-ordinating Bazzill Bling for the lettering and to mount the pictures. The letters were cut on my Cricut using Mickey's Font cartridge. I then run them through my cuttlebug using the Spots and dots embossing folder to continue the bubble theme. I printed the text in word and mounted. The flower splats and fibres are from my kind friend Lim. Other accessories: Buttons from my stash & bubble sticks!

A "Cosmic" Layout!


Here is a double layout I made with this month's Design Team kit. Made with gorgeous Cherry Arte Cosmic Energy patterned papers and Bazzill cardstock. These are very versatile papers as they are double-sided - here I have used both sides of the 'Space View' paper on one LO. I've also incorporated the tickets from our visit and a souvenir embroidered patch I bought while we were there. As soon as I saw these I knew they were perfect for this LO of Kennedy Space Center; they would also be great colours for Disney pages too :). Hope it was worth the wait! See you soon, Katy xxx

Mix 'm up

Already told you how versatile the Laura Ashley paper range is, and in this card I wanted to show you that the Contemporary and Traditional range also combine soo great together :)

A girl can never have too many bags!


Thought I'd try something different today and no stamping involved! Covered these chipboard bags in beautiful Laura Ashley paper. I used my cuttlebug "Birds and Swirls" on the Tapioca bazzill. The sentiment was printed on my computer. Hope you like it!
