Having fun with paper tearing and inking!





I had a lot of fun creating this page, .....did a little paper tearing and playing with layered embellies. I made the butterfly by taking an image of a white butterfly, adding some colour in a photo editing program and then printing it out on a piece of transparency......I then cut out the butterfly, folded the wings upward and attached the body to the page. I used Diamond glaze on the green seed beads to keep them firmly attached to the body of the butterfly.

Pink Paislee at My Creative Scrapbook!!






I've got to say this has been such a fun kit to play with......that's right!! we got Pink Paislee at My Creative Scrapbook for the September main kit and for the album kits!! I had so much fun designing with the goodies in the kit this month......they all seemed to work so well with the colours in the photo's I'd taken on our Summer vacation! I used the Maya Road swirly sheet (included in the kit) 2 ways......I used it for masking on my page 'Love Letters' and then used the same piece (it's a vinyl material so it wipes right off!) on my 'Freckles' page!
Also included in the kit was the cutest Hambly transparent overlay in a silver lace design, I used that in my 'Wild Child' l/o......it's a really nice match to the turquoise paper in the Pink Paislee Vintage Moon collection! I added a little stitching and some fun rub-ons (also in the kit!) and voila! 3 layouts done in 2 days!
And! some really cute bling in this kit too by Kaiser Craft!! I used the black bling to make my own little bling flourishes on the "love letters' page!!
If you want some great scrapping fun all tied up in one perfect kit, hop on over to My Creative Scrapbook and get your order in before they're all gone!! (and take my word for it, they are going fast!) www.mycreativescrapbook.com
