Good morning beautiful creative people, Lydia back finally to share another project. It's been a long time! It's been a crazy start to the year and getting used to grade 12 and all that it has install for me this year, including the huge workload that has taken weeks to get used to. But I am finally on top and ready to get fully organised and start creating and sharing again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What better way to start sharing again with the brand new 'Olivia' kits. These kits are so sunning filled with the beautiful pastel colours of the new Cocoa Vanilla Studio collection 'More Than Words'. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So today I am sharing my first creation of a 12x12 layout using these kits.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rwclwBNrdmw/WqRbQcsLc7I/AAAAAAAAGrU/oqwv6l4Qs6A_8lk-rh8u-xYH9YMUS6P7wCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8779%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rwclwBNrdmw/WqRbQcsLc7I/AAAAAAAAGrU/oqwv6l4Qs6A_8lk-rh8u-xYH9YMUS6P7wCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_8779%2B%25232.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I always find it so easy to create using colours and elements that I love. So working with the pinks, blues and butterflies this layout came together quite quick.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this layout I did go for a more minimalistic style using the vellum black and white florals with the pops of pinks and corals from the butterflies. I also love the contrast from the greys to the bold black of those gorgeous Thickers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8ixOyXYC84Q/WqRbqvgVr1I/AAAAAAAAGrY/AgMyD4-nhE8EePWOKC2w190msOqmTEfxACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8783%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8ixOyXYC84Q/WqRbqvgVr1I/AAAAAAAAGrY/AgMyD4-nhE8EePWOKC2w190msOqmTEfxACLcBGAs/s400/IMG_8783%2B%25232.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Of course I had to add some dimension using these KaiserCraft florals as a cluster under the photo.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jwAAfj9Vu-g/WqRcXW7EVYI/AAAAAAAAGrk/_z9K5rblWdYc6sFcE7f3Mlkz_fUEXl9KQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8794%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jwAAfj9Vu-g/WqRcXW7EVYI/AAAAAAAAGrk/_z9K5rblWdYc6sFcE7f3Mlkz_fUEXl9KQCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_8794%2B%25232.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On the opposite bottom side of the image to the KiaserCraft florals, I added a few pieces of ephemera from the ephemera pack as well as a ever beautiful flair from the collection. I also added some enamel dots/hearts around the whole layout too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oHsdr1rQbOw/WqRczSx4EtI/AAAAAAAAGro/ZP788drQKYgkcaWMRtvJJ68_rovCoyMWgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8795.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oHsdr1rQbOw/WqRczSx4EtI/AAAAAAAAGro/ZP788drQKYgkcaWMRtvJJ68_rovCoyMWgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_8795.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Over the whole layout are fussy cut butterflies from one of the 12x12 papers. I paired the butterflies with some of the vellum florals. I love how they are give the feeling that they are fling around the page.</div>

Hello Scrappery friends, Lydia here finally back sharing for 2018. 2018 is going to be a big year, as I enter my final year of schooling in Grade 12 and getting ready for my future which will defiantly still include creating.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so excited to have started the year with the gorgeous 'Willow' Kits to create with. I'm so in love with all the bright colours in the kits featuring the Crate Paper collection 'Cool Vibes'. So to start off the year I'm sharing a 12x12 traditional layout using the 'Willow' kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NakPuPkEmlA/WmvSrjePoWI/AAAAAAAAGlc/payAjeYnPIcbOwPt92l3Ea25JVQ6qepbwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_6406.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1590" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NakPuPkEmlA/WmvSrjePoWI/AAAAAAAAGlc/payAjeYnPIcbOwPt92l3Ea25JVQ6qepbwCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_6406.jpg" width="396" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now when I first opened my kits my eye was caught on the bright colours but also the little ampersands that I found in the ephemera pack which made me cut some out of the patterned papers in the TSK as the made feature of the layout. I also hand stitched around a few of the ampersand which you will see in some of the close up images.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UFF0Ogrjwe0/WmvUMgt3eNI/AAAAAAAAGl0/nSqO6NjZn7kuFCovFq--p5ACHBJIMblRgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_6409%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UFF0Ogrjwe0/WmvUMgt3eNI/AAAAAAAAGl0/nSqO6NjZn7kuFCovFq--p5ACHBJIMblRgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_6409%2B%25232.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I absolutely love the colours in these kits, their just sooooo me!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This layout was ended up turning into a page about me and just being and loving myself hence why I used the shiny gold glitter Thickers which can be found the 'Willow' PLK.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-K1qKjWrZtbA/WmvS-MxmhoI/AAAAAAAAGlg/v2n6QP7WqBkUQNeFmug2z4Hmvc42qqGrwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_6427%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-K1qKjWrZtbA/WmvS-MxmhoI/AAAAAAAAGlg/v2n6QP7WqBkUQNeFmug2z4Hmvc42qqGrwCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_6427%2B%25232.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am all about self love so when saw this ephemera piece I fell in love with it and knew I had to use it with a photo of myself. In this image you can also see one of the ampersands that I hand stitched around.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ahiKmFwn5As/WmvUBgRy6MI/AAAAAAAAGlw/RT58jhNpvxwIj7RbrJmqI9-t19fmVQ4_wCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_6418%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ahiKmFwn5As/WmvUBgRy6MI/AAAAAAAAGlw/RT58jhNpvxwIj7RbrJmqI9-t19fmVQ4_wCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_6418%2B%25232.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now you all know I love my clustes of embellishments so I did them next two 3-4 ampersands using little pieces from the ephemera pack as well as in one of the clusters using one of the beautiful charms which had a cactus on it. I than finished the clusters with a few little rhinestones.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a>, back again today to share my second project for the month featuring <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=Paper+Artsy&Search=" target="_blank">Paper Artsy</a>. Today I am sharing a set of three days using a range of projects from the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix store</a> and featuring <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03 stamp set</a> from Paper Artsy.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cRZ7AJfm41M/WlQsnSeD5pI/AAAAAAAAGiE/F3p7e6lJNqAIwYuhxVEaNtIBdZU6_9NVACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_5209%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1207" data-original-width="1600" height="301" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cRZ7AJfm41M/WlQsnSeD5pI/AAAAAAAAGiE/F3p7e6lJNqAIwYuhxVEaNtIBdZU6_9NVACLcBGAs/s400/IMG_5209%2B2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
First thing I did was grab some tags from my stash, using a small palette knife added some <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-paint/" target="_blank">Dylusions Paint</a> in the colours Bubblegum Pink and Rose Quartz. I also love how fast these Dylsuions Paints dry too.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-r3aYJ9bG74M/WlQtqO96WsI/AAAAAAAAGiU/UcnVd3kXCNsYIIzuAkftZkGnI66xKCfWgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_5167.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-r3aYJ9bG74M/WlQtqO96WsI/AAAAAAAAGiU/UcnVd3kXCNsYIIzuAkftZkGnI66xKCfWgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_5167.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to build some light layers on these tags so I used the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/4-5x8-5-tim-holtz-lace/" target="_blank">Tim Holtz - Lace Stencil</a> and sprayed some of my favourite <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-ink-spray/" target="_blank">Dylusions Inks</a> in the colours Rose Quartz and Laidback Lilac. Although the inks did run a bit when I sprayed them, I like the effect that gave.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YZvaTmm982o/WlQu2kNH5EI/AAAAAAAAGig/dRUrYyET7oUNwXPeRbqJ5ctRiUy8u-MYgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_5169.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1068" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YZvaTmm982o/WlQu2kNH5EI/AAAAAAAAGig/dRUrYyET7oUNwXPeRbqJ5ctRiUy8u-MYgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_5169.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03 stamp set</a> from Paper Artsy and stamped onto some plain white card and fussy cut them out. And to adhere them to the tags I used Helmar 450 Quick Dry adhesive.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FYjkGMFwkzU/WlQwPXdnEYI/AAAAAAAAGis/pQWIGdBR1Po2JOsC8DD9NGpZ825v-MLNACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_5170.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FYjkGMFwkzU/WlQwPXdnEYI/AAAAAAAAGis/pQWIGdBR1Po2JOsC8DD9NGpZ825v-MLNACLcBGAs/s400/IMG_5170.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last but not least I added a few textural items including Finnabair by Prima <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/art-glass-beads/" target="_blank">Art Glass Beads</a> in the colour Zinc and some Finnabair by Prima <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/art-ingredients-mica-flakes/" target="_blank">Art Ingredients Mica Flakes</a> in the colour Mulberry.</div>

Happy New Year Scrap Matrix friends. <a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a> back to share my December <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=Paper+Atsy&Search=" target="_blank">Paper Artsy</a> challenge project which is a DIY bauble and tag using their stamp set <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03</a> which you can find over in the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix</a> store.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was the perfect project to do for December as it is the month of Christmas and decorations. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pXtdwqaVOc0/WlAWTy3Bb1I/AAAAAAAAGg8/zLGtduZzDNQKiGUyAJoom24zMmMdCRFjACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2157%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pXtdwqaVOc0/WlAWTy3Bb1I/AAAAAAAAGg8/zLGtduZzDNQKiGUyAJoom24zMmMdCRFjACLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2157%2B2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using some plain white cardstock I stamped the beautiful journaling card looking stamp from the Paper Artsy stamp set <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03</a> and cut it out. I hole punched it to be able to thread some <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=twine&Search=" target="_blank">twine</a> through and finished it with a quick Merry Christmas and Happy New Year message.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_Bbjt89UeQw/WlAZHtEmVlI/AAAAAAAAGhU/EmHoJVdMYxAmivsnXoHqYzNRcMK0wk0iwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2151.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_Bbjt89UeQw/WlAZHtEmVlI/AAAAAAAAGhU/EmHoJVdMYxAmivsnXoHqYzNRcMK0wk0iwCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2151.JPG" width="266" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And on the reverse side of the tag I again used the Paper Artsy stamp set <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03</a> with the triangle to give the tag a featured side. That made the tag finished. Quick, simple and effective.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Oy0odLEaqk/WlAY7IX-ZWI/AAAAAAAAGhY/mQDWSr2bvnIz3tLVWEuaIMY89w29XRmbACEwYBhgL/s1600/IMG_2150.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0Oy0odLEaqk/WlAY7IX-ZWI/AAAAAAAAGhY/mQDWSr2bvnIz3tLVWEuaIMY89w29XRmbACEwYBhgL/s400/IMG_2150.JPG" width="266" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My favourite part of this project was definately choosing what stamps to use from the Paper Artsy <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03</a> stamp set, there were so many to choose from. So this bauble has both a front and back side and is simply made out of cardstock, <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-ink-spray/" target="_blank">Dylusions</a> and the beautiful stamp set.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To do the background I started with a piece of cardstock and used the colours Bubblegm Pink, Calypso Teal and Pomegranate Seed, <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-ink-spray/" target="_blank">Dylusion inks</a>. Once that had dried I picked out the words smile, camera shy, photography and click from the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03</a> Paper Artsy stamp set ad stamped them on directly onto the<a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-ink-spray/" target="_blank"> Dylusions</a> background.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sDT_4tI7dgg/WlAY1OQYgKI/AAAAAAAAGhY/43g5ekFRbPUQXVvRDvzd3IOeMf1e-K7IgCEwYBhgL/s1600/IMG_2159.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sDT_4tI7dgg/WlAY1OQYgKI/AAAAAAAAGhY/43g5ekFRbPUQXVvRDvzd3IOeMf1e-K7IgCEwYBhgL/s400/IMG_2159.JPG" width="266" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I than added a little feature to both side using just a stamp from the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/e-emma-godfrey-03-a5-set-trimmed-on-ez/" target="_blank">E³ Emma Godfrey 03</a> set just stamping it onto plain white cardstock and cutting them out.</div>

Hello, I hope you are all enjoying this months challenge and seeing all the DT's projects. I am back again to share my second project using 7 Dot's. I have to say I am enjoying creating projects using the 7 Dot's collection <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=7+Dot%27s+Writers+Block&Search=" target="_blank">'Writers Block'</a> even though it definately isn't in my confront zone of creating with those colours but what would it be if it wasn't a challenge right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For my second project using the<a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=7+Dot%27s+Writers+Block&Search=" target="_blank"> 'Writers Block' collection</a> I have created two cards.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nHg3yOcJPO8/Whyzb2yGIJI/AAAAAAAAGfg/zLDrHVGha5cM2CAEVezAaI9-b3WzP_uYgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2134.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1093" data-original-width="1600" height="271" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nHg3yOcJPO8/Whyzb2yGIJI/AAAAAAAAGfg/zLDrHVGha5cM2CAEVezAaI9-b3WzP_uYgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2134.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had a lot of fun layering different pieces while starting with a base on the card with some patterned paper from the collection.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s6qgtTn3XxY/Whyz8ZWtC1I/AAAAAAAAGfo/1QoD9GYjU4AykOqhiBy-f8Zwp8VD7UaawCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2142.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s6qgtTn3XxY/Whyz8ZWtC1I/AAAAAAAAGfo/1QoD9GYjU4AykOqhiBy-f8Zwp8VD7UaawCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2142.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Within my layers on my cards I used the same 4 elements, a tag from the collection, a Prima flower, <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/prima-wooden-cogs-gears/" target="_blank">Finnabair by Prima wood veneer cog and gears</a> and a <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/brass-flower-large-1/" target="_blank">metal flower</a>. I wanted to add a bit of colour to the colours. As I am sure you all know the colours in this collection don't in to me so I got out my <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=Tim+Holtz+Distress+Ink&Search=" target="_blank">Tim Holtz Distress Ink</a> in the colour Lilac. I than coloured the wooden gears and cogs with the distress ink as well as going around the outside of the card.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QiXETwPBFko/Why0gAf5DOI/AAAAAAAAGf0/I8w7UYrTx0wy9IvrQY0zDZKAP1RDCn7awCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2137.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QiXETwPBFko/Why0gAf5DOI/AAAAAAAAGf0/I8w7UYrTx0wy9IvrQY0zDZKAP1RDCn7awCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2137.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EIUm5_Mhz1g/Why2YA3tENI/AAAAAAAAGgA/MBe2nXxOqpw2QY2b1gwBICjwW0GUbX7qgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2143.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EIUm5_Mhz1g/Why2YA3tENI/AAAAAAAAGgA/MBe2nXxOqpw2QY2b1gwBICjwW0GUbX7qgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2143.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And to finish the cards off I added a little sentiment using <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/vicki-boutin-mixed-media-stickers/" target="_blank">Vicki Boutin Mixed Media Stickers</a>.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-77k_JM4rb2o/Why3ABI86GI/AAAAAAAAGgI/eZDComtTISMiBNdqrSdsC2o3smOhq9ooACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2144.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-77k_JM4rb2o/Why3ABI86GI/AAAAAAAAGgI/eZDComtTISMiBNdqrSdsC2o3smOhq9ooACLcBGAs/s400/IMG_2144.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really love how these cards turned out and that I was able to get outside of my creative confront zone and create with something I defiantly wouldn't use, but that's the point of the challenge hey? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you are all enjoying this months challenge and I am loving seeing everyone's entries over on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1665321436821150/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix Shares</a> Facebook group.

Hi Scrappery fans, Lydia back finally to share a layout using the beautiful Violet Kits. It' been a while since I was here on the blog due to a crazy few months finishing Grade 11 at school, but I am now back and ready for 8 full weeks of creating and sharing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's layout I am sharing features the stunning 'Bohemian Dream' collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio which is in the Violet Kits. I love this collection which has a lot of purple which is hard to find in scrapbooking collections.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my layout featuring a dream catcher.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I absolutely love how this turned out and I have to say it is one of my favourite layouts.</div>

For this title I used the pink Thickers that came in the kits and the gorgeous Cocoa Vanilla Studio chipboard pieces for the word 'BIG'. </div>

I layered a few of the floral pieces which can be found in the ephemera pack to place around the dream catcher which is made out of layered patterned paper from the collection as well as those beautiful and delicate doilies which are found in the kits.</div>

Hi <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix</a> blog readers, <a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia </a>back to share my November 7 Dots challenge project. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now if you are a fan of 7 Dots and know my style and colours I use, you will instantly know that <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=7+Dots&Search=" target="_blank">7 Dot's</a> isn't my typical colour palette and I definitely wouldn't buy it if I had a choice. But by using the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=7+Dots+writers+block&Search=" target="_blank">7 Dots collection 'Writer's Block'</a> I created a project that even surprised boss lady Vicki haha.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is my project.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZmDdiiNLN78/WhZwUKaGKmI/AAAAAAAAGdo/9vQ8UKQlPdMDOuCBBzynwFroqoBfvZHhgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1314.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1480" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZmDdiiNLN78/WhZwUKaGKmI/AAAAAAAAGdo/9vQ8UKQlPdMDOuCBBzynwFroqoBfvZHhgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1314.jpg" width="370" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
To be honest I surprised myself how easily I was able to create with these rust and neutral colours. I had fun layering too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can tell that you are thinking how did you create that rusty cog. Well fun fact it is an old and naturally rusted concrete cutting saw and it worked perfectly for this project and even co-ordinated with the colours in the 7 Dot's collection I was using.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now aren't these Prima Flowers stunning and perfect for the colours in the 'Writers Block' collection which you can find in the Scrap Matrix store <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=7+Dots+writers+block&Search=" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had some fun layering all the different patterned papers from the collection including a die cut tag from the collection.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/--tIvu0h-AJw/WhZyurVOyfI/AAAAAAAAGeE/FUCPZ7ykEfcXXUEe8ghL6NDAd6-k-w39gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1319.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/--tIvu0h-AJw/WhZyurVOyfI/AAAAAAAAGeE/FUCPZ7ykEfcXXUEe8ghL6NDAd6-k-w39gCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1319.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
And how cute are these tickets from the die cut sheet too.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

Lydia back, to share my second project for the month. Now you all know I am a lover of bright colours as you have all seen with my previous projects. So I am guessing with no surprise to you I have used my favourite colours yet again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is my project I made using a paper mache button.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PWDOPVee-Hw/WgaYo8d4MbI/AAAAAAAAGbw/-d5hdk-UebcPYAUJNhhwcvefdnvEoBt9QCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1302%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1235" data-original-width="1600" height="308" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PWDOPVee-Hw/WgaYo8d4MbI/AAAAAAAAGbw/-d5hdk-UebcPYAUJNhhwcvefdnvEoBt9QCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1302%2B2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First thing I had to do before starting mixed media I had to prime the paper mache button with gesso. I used gesso from my stash but you can find a variety of brands and types in the Scrap Matrix store <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=GESSO&Search=" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0gFrwb3xRp4/WgaeTn8GwhI/AAAAAAAAGcY/WSdBeVSIQx8hxSnPb70wxqWdbzDadXB5ACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1299.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0gFrwb3xRp4/WgaeTn8GwhI/AAAAAAAAGcY/WSdBeVSIQx8hxSnPb70wxqWdbzDadXB5ACLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1299.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Than I used some of the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=scrap+matrix&Search=" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix metal trinkets</a> as a stencil when spraying my favourite <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-ink-spray/" target="_blank">Dylusions Ink Sprays</a> in the colour Bubblegum Pink and Calypso Teal. When spraying these two colours I made sure they overlapped so I could blend the colours to create a stunning purple colour.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used some of the gorgeous flowers to give some dimension.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-woOlQlPcgxE/WgafPTFA-RI/AAAAAAAAGck/dlz_cPRH1j8sr0y32-ZAUsRW3I2bzR8wQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1304.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-woOlQlPcgxE/WgafPTFA-RI/AAAAAAAAGck/dlz_cPRH1j8sr0y32-ZAUsRW3I2bzR8wQCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1304.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also added some<a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/micro-beads/" target="_blank"> Micro Beads</a> which come in a variety of different colours to add a bit of shine and texture.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DBi5H_0GoxM/WgagYm4rNqI/AAAAAAAAGcw/N1hM1EFV2ywdknf0y-P3SM_Xqrqjqd8SwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1306.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="266" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DBi5H_0GoxM/WgagYm4rNqI/AAAAAAAAGcw/N1hM1EFV2ywdknf0y-P3SM_Xqrqjqd8SwCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1306.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To give my project a more of a sewing feel I added a metal zip which can found in the Scrap Matrix store <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/zipper-5/" target="_blank">HERE.</a> I also added a few <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/vicki-boutin-mixed-media-stickers/" target="_blank">Vicki Boutin Mixed Media Stickers</a>.</div>

Hello arty friends of <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix</a>, Lydia back to share my project for this months <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix</a> Challenge. I had a little bit of fun and got messy with this months challenge which is 'Watercolour & Words'. So be sure to head over to the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1665321436821150/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix Shares</a> Faceboook group to enter this months challenge.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ieSRiKlNLAw/WfUocsHdTHI/AAAAAAAAGaQ/TZjM_Lk9a_8_i9MxtXd8w9LhB84ognS-wCLcBGAs/s1600/22195584_10214743618046760_1363536710467528432_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="535" data-original-width="750" height="285" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ieSRiKlNLAw/WfUocsHdTHI/AAAAAAAAGaQ/TZjM_Lk9a_8_i9MxtXd8w9LhB84ognS-wCLcBGAs/s400/22195584_10214743618046760_1363536710467528432_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
For my project and interpretation of this challenge I had some fun and made a easy art journal page featuring Tim Holtz Distress Inks which you an find in the Scrap Matrix store <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=Distress+Inks&Search=" target="_blank">HERE</a> as my watercolour.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kUGrjsXAma0/WfUpZCg6WQI/AAAAAAAAGac/6LdB7mv8iykndBX9VkaEGZq4XL0n0Nh2gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1146%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1104" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kUGrjsXAma0/WfUpZCg6WQI/AAAAAAAAGac/6LdB7mv8iykndBX9VkaEGZq4XL0n0Nh2gCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1146%2B%25232.jpg" width="275" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here are some close ups of this art journal page. If you have seen my previous projects for Scrap Matrix you will know the colours I use. I will always have some sort of pinks and blues on my projects with a touch of other colours too. These colours just sing out to me and I find it easy to create with them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For my 'Watercolour & Words' challenge project as mentioned above I used <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=Distress+Inks&Search=" target="_blank">Tim Holtz Distress Inks</a> in the colours 'worn lipstick', 'tattered rose', 'peacock feathers' and 'mustard seed'. All of these colours can be found in the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=Distress+Inks&Search=" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix store</a> in both mini and regular size. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now to achieve the background effect I have here, all I did was use the packing technique. All you will need to a little piece of plastic packaging, with a little bit of ink and a spray of water and than simply rub that on your surface. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
As for the word part of the challenge I used a 13 Arts stencil called 'Art Brush' which can be found in the Scrap Matrix store <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/6x6-13-arts-art-brush/" target="_blank">HERE</a>. I just used the words passion, inspire and create with some white texture paste on the background. I also used a wood veneer Heidi Swapp 'hello' from here mixed media Project Life set.</div>

Hello Scrap Matrix blog readers, <a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a> back to share my second project of the month with a fun and bright mini mixed media canvas. As I am a traditional 12x12 scrapbooker with only dabbling in mixed media I had a lot of fun and releasing my arty messy self with this canvas. And I love the colours!!!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kEW4s8uaz64/Wd26-275tDI/AAAAAAAAGYc/FygreiXqcXs0BanadLfwCpvQHST4BPIDgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_1005%2B32.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1509" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kEW4s8uaz64/Wd26-275tDI/AAAAAAAAGYc/FygreiXqcXs0BanadLfwCpvQHST4BPIDgCLcBGAs/s400/IMG_1005%2B32.jpg" width="375" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this project I used a 4x4 white canvas with a depth of 1.5inches that I had in my stash. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then glued some <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/search.php?search_query=twine&Search=" target="_blank">twine</a> from the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix</a> store then to use black gesso to paint over both the twine and canvas.</div>

<br />
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I than added some white acrylic paint splatters to the background. Next was time to get messy with some <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/dylusions-ink-spray/" target="_blank">Dylusions Ink Sprays</a> in the colours Bubblegum Pink and Calipso Teal. I used these inks to colour a paper doily from my stash and to also colour some fun <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/brands/Scrap-Matrix.html" target="_blank">metal trinkets</a> from the <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/" target="_blank">Scrap Matrix store.</a> </div>

Now this a little bit different for me as this mixed media layout does not have any photos. But I thought what better why to show you all my creative space then to share five things about it and add some photos to this blog post of my space.</div>

So for my background I used <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/distress-ink-mini/" target="_blank">Tim Holz Mini Distress Inks</a>. I used the colours Peacock Feathers, Tattered Rose and Mustard Seed to give a water coloured effect background.</div>

For each of the numbers I fussy cut out of <a href="http://scrapmatrix.com/cest-la-vie-paper-07/" target="_blank">Pink Paislee's C'est La Vie paper #07.</a> I love how the numbers worked so perfectly as I share five things about my creative space.</div>

As a 16 year old I still live at home with my parents and younger sister so I have my creative space in my bedroom. I am lucky enough with how big my space is since it is in my bedroom. Overall my creative space is full of colour and has many vintage cameras and typewriters around it. I love where I create.</div>

Good morning, I hope you ae enjoying your weekend and are able to get some creative time in before the week ahead. Well today I have a quick and simple little project I made using the gorgeous 'Blair' kits. I have already told yo all how much I love these kits. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is my project. Just a simple card and a tag. This would be perfect to finish off a gift with a because card and tag. These colours just call for my attention with the touch of gold also.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jPDxfOzD5SQ/WZeC8UZxIWI/AAAAAAAAGRs/5hEtrwon_9Q6l95tdQkiTgk2_DexYWFiwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0233%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jPDxfOzD5SQ/WZeC8UZxIWI/AAAAAAAAGRs/5hEtrwon_9Q6l95tdQkiTgk2_DexYWFiwCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0233%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is a simple by pretty card I made using some scrap pieces of paper. I added one of those beautiful gold puffy stickers, some of the chipboard Thickers, enamel dots from my stash and some ink splatters also to finish the card off.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now the tag I love! Again I used some scrap pieces of paper that are included in the kits, some chipboard Thickers again and some more of the beautiful Maggie Holmes puffy stickers. And nothing is finished without some enamel dots that are from my stash. </div>

First things first; the gold leaf. All I did was put a little bit of Helmar Craft Glue in places where I wanted to put the leaf. And very carefully place some gold leaf in those spots with glue and press it down.</div>

Well hello Scrappery friends, <a href="https://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a> back. I hope you are all well. So after starting a new school term and recovering from nearly three weeks with appendices, I am finally able to share a layout I created with the new 'Blair' kits. Can I just say, I am in love with the colours and products in these kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is my first project using the kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9TYU89qtkrc/WYVPmBVM2nI/AAAAAAAAGQ4/vBwbRMuXOYAp1aOnfz-wnzCkXMC0dggJgCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0225.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1582" data-original-width="1600" height="632" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9TYU89qtkrc/WYVPmBVM2nI/AAAAAAAAGQ4/vBwbRMuXOYAp1aOnfz-wnzCkXMC0dggJgCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0225.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh my, those colours are all me. I love them so much. I did do some fussy cutting to give the page another element ad some dimension with those beautiful butterflies. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nEXCkI399E8/WYVP4NjIkLI/AAAAAAAAGQ8/oujUIoSbf9k7TcKq7a5lq-75WhOTYpTJwCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0227.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nEXCkI399E8/WYVP4NjIkLI/AAAAAAAAGQ8/oujUIoSbf9k7TcKq7a5lq-75WhOTYpTJwCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0227.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love he botanical feel of this kit and the beautiful greens and pinks together. And you can't go past a little black and white also. I am also falling for those gold puffy stickers too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ivhi3R6blCM/WYVQfJ3ViyI/AAAAAAAAGRE/q3Bgo4UWtV47bqvS3HcEnzfWTatKknP-gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0231.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ivhi3R6blCM/WYVQfJ3ViyI/AAAAAAAAGRE/q3Bgo4UWtV47bqvS3HcEnzfWTatKknP-gCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0231.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A layout wouldn't be complete without one of those delicate doilies under the photo. I also added some tiny words to my layout also.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-baVWUz593Fo/WYVQf4AmZ3I/AAAAAAAAGRI/hNY5NIpqA848MS2Aig4b0jrGvryipKAowCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0229%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-baVWUz593Fo/WYVQf4AmZ3I/AAAAAAAAGRI/hNY5NIpqA848MS2Aig4b0jrGvryipKAowCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0229%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the title I used a mix of fronts form the Thickers that are in the TSK. And again I added some enamel dots to finish the page. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mPiUgAr-qnw/WYVQgkI5mxI/AAAAAAAAGRM/ftjrlgL6WfAtWG0klr-oK2XA90nDkhvVQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0230.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1043" data-original-width="1600" height="416" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mPiUgAr-qnw/WYVQgkI5mxI/AAAAAAAAGRM/ftjrlgL6WfAtWG0klr-oK2XA90nDkhvVQCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0230.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-k4Q1LbgjH4Q/WYVQlfKlQgI/AAAAAAAAGRQ/GUMLqL-gDV0PnOUeO3Bvs7BNJAiqJXnCACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0232%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-k4Q1LbgjH4Q/WYVQlfKlQgI/AAAAAAAAGRQ/GUMLqL-gDV0PnOUeO3Bvs7BNJAiqJXnCACLcBGAs/s640/IMG_0232%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you are all creating with your 'Blair' kits and I can't wait to see them if you post tem in the Scrappery Club Inspiration group on Facebook. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a wonderful day.</div>

Hello Scrappery peeps, <a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a> back to finally share another project using the 'Belle' kits. The past few weeks has been crazy with end of semester exams and then a school camp to start the school holidays, and in that process I lost my creative mojo and have been stuck in the ditch trying to get back out of it. But I am back and ready to get the paper and glue back out and to create.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is a project a I have been meaning to do a blog post for a few weeks and it is a sweet 16th card I made for one of my friends. I love how this card turned out wit the beautiful florals in the 'Belle' kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sZ8mpLmF1KY/WVhXqX0P7hI/AAAAAAAAGQA/vZz8cg2_qtYr9ABNW9m9bFSiMmpylIV-QCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8032.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sZ8mpLmF1KY/WVhXqX0P7hI/AAAAAAAAGQA/vZz8cg2_qtYr9ABNW9m9bFSiMmpylIV-QCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_8032.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did do a little bit of fussy cutting of the florals but it was worth it because they are gorgeous. I did use doily from my stash as it did need something delicate in the background. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tTbW2VHoV98/WVhfltcZR_I/AAAAAAAAGQM/BJh8wNqL54IcSAJdPz8yAbxcCVT49mbHACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8037%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tTbW2VHoV98/WVhfltcZR_I/AAAAAAAAGQM/BJh8wNqL54IcSAJdPz8yAbxcCVT49mbHACLcBGAs/s640/IMG_8037%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the fabric Thickers and I also used one of the Cocoa Vanilla wood veneer words that says 'sweet'. I love the addition of the wood veneer and different font within the alpha's.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hPhXwB0-5TU/WVhf35-u9yI/AAAAAAAAGQU/Z8OVOGLt900cfO9WXUP7S3M1WS5fUgG6wCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8034.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hPhXwB0-5TU/WVhf35-u9yI/AAAAAAAAGQU/Z8OVOGLt900cfO9WXUP7S3M1WS5fUgG6wCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_8034.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And of course to finished the card I added some of the beautiful glittery Cocoa Vanilla Studio enamel dots. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2MlB4gxnB1E/WVhf0BR8t5I/AAAAAAAAGQQ/kjkxHC5RrVgJtlEUwkD0UgIqo8PxBzMTACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_8036%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2MlB4gxnB1E/WVhf0BR8t5I/AAAAAAAAGQQ/kjkxHC5RrVgJtlEUwkD0UgIqo8PxBzMTACLcBGAs/s640/IMG_8036%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I hope you like this card and I will sure be back very soon to share another project.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am glad I am back and can't wait to do another blog post. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope you have a wonderful week ahead. </div>

Hello, hello Scrappery friends. <a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a> back to share another layout using the 'Belle' kits. So I have been a little MIA lately due to the amount of school assignments but I am nearly over that hurdle of mid term assessment so I will have some time to scrap as I haven't scrapbooked in over 2-3 weeks. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do hope you all have a lovely scrapping time last weekend on Inter National Scrapbooking Day/Weekend. And I hope that this weekend all of those precious mums are having a lovely Mothers Day today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my layout this week using the 'Belle' kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pQwruFN2ga4/WRaqyMHDbVI/AAAAAAAAGPE/W61i_wa2GTAl7kZV586hvun2q8egIceegCLcB/s1600/IMG_8023.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pQwruFN2ga4/WRaqyMHDbVI/AAAAAAAAGPE/W61i_wa2GTAl7kZV586hvun2q8egIceegCLcB/s640/IMG_8023.jpg" width="628" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have I mentioned how much I love these kits? These colours just sing to me. I love how this layout features the beautiful Cocoa Vanilla Studio "Oh My Heart" chipboard frames. I also love all the dimension on this layout too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the title I used one of the Cocoa Vanilla Studio chipboard stickers and a wood veneer. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XOlktV9fWTU/WRarVuZcgnI/AAAAAAAAGPg/EBrngzuzDJAxkO5tzv9WDrJvCTD89NfsQCEw/s1600/IMG_8028.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XOlktV9fWTU/WRarVuZcgnI/AAAAAAAAGPg/EBrngzuzDJAxkO5tzv9WDrJvCTD89NfsQCEw/s640/IMG_8028.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FAxMQnZv6y8/WRarCaoY7iI/AAAAAAAAGPk/gTgb5HFJCqIq5XkDskRNdWEnky9i4-0ZACEw/s1600/IMG_8024.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FAxMQnZv6y8/WRarCaoY7iI/AAAAAAAAGPk/gTgb5HFJCqIq5XkDskRNdWEnky9i4-0ZACEw/s640/IMG_8024.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And as well as the feature of all the frames I added a few embellishment clutters using the ephemera pack. And of course to finish the clusters I used some of the gorgeous glittery Cocoa Vanilla Studio enamel dots. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FG2uDCBZS_Y/WRaq5_idn9I/AAAAAAAAGPk/Q1cStpgPaiwArGMNEbMPXyAUXKfcl6pqQCEw/s1600/IMG_8025%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FG2uDCBZS_Y/WRaq5_idn9I/AAAAAAAAGPk/Q1cStpgPaiwArGMNEbMPXyAUXKfcl6pqQCEw/s640/IMG_8025%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sSQH1Rpy820/WRarE7fkMhI/AAAAAAAAGPk/U1NtgjbZXRcHQpTarXHS2c9v9mKZZqs1wCEw/s1600/IMG_8026%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sSQH1Rpy820/WRarE7fkMhI/AAAAAAAAGPk/U1NtgjbZXRcHQpTarXHS2c9v9mKZZqs1wCEw/s640/IMG_8026%2B%25232.jpg" width="425" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also added my photo behind the beautiful floral frame to make it stand out on the page. I also backed it with one of the gorgeous and delicate doilies. I did add some ephemera around the photo too with some more enamel dots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nN_RE2kwflM/WRarSNHWNOI/AAAAAAAAGPk/PNG4Ds1mMn04qOFSUMIK3aQDcsWoxH4YACEw/s1600/IMG_8029%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nN_RE2kwflM/WRarSNHWNOI/AAAAAAAAGPk/PNG4Ds1mMn04qOFSUMIK3aQDcsWoxH4YACEw/s640/IMG_8029%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

Good morning lovely people, <a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Lydia</a> back and I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend an getting some creative time in there somewhere. I am not quite sure if I will get creative as I have a pile of school assignments to get done. So I am back to share my first layout using the new "Belle" kits. I am so excited about these kits as they are full of the beautiful Cocoa Vanilla Studio 'Wild At Heart' collection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my fist layout using the new "Belle" kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NFk9WOsqgls/WQP2qb5tAoI/AAAAAAAAGOA/Fk9dqJnP88EzyTAKOVp4UBEVcR299Kr9gCLcB/s1600/IMG_7957.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="632" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NFk9WOsqgls/WQP2qb5tAoI/AAAAAAAAGOA/Fk9dqJnP88EzyTAKOVp4UBEVcR299Kr9gCLcB/s640/IMG_7957.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did a centre design going down the page. So I knew I would have to add a little cluster somewhere off to the side. So at the top left corner I added some of the ephemera arrows, a bitty bloom and of course some enamel dots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yLwqiDd3oIY/WQP3KQkvhwI/AAAAAAAAGOI/sjKPDZZgPTc4lNFtQoh2V2jyDGxeCX6RACEw/s1600/IMG_7961%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yLwqiDd3oIY/WQP3KQkvhwI/AAAAAAAAGOI/sjKPDZZgPTc4lNFtQoh2V2jyDGxeCX6RACEw/s640/IMG_7961%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did add some stamping but unfortunately you are unable to see it in these photos. I used the gorgeous mini KaiserCraft floral stamp that come in the TCK. So behind my photo I added some layers of the patterned paper and also some of the speciality vellum too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fPQwQVmrTMM/WQP3UMr0G6I/AAAAAAAAGOY/2MLMcxb_k7Y79955fsys_BI3OfXFCBo-ACEw/s1600/IMG_7963.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fPQwQVmrTMM/WQP3UMr0G6I/AAAAAAAAGOY/2MLMcxb_k7Y79955fsys_BI3OfXFCBo-ACEw/s640/IMG_7963.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As for embellishments I used the beautiful floral pieces from the ephemera pack and also added some Circut die cutter leaves from my stash from cardstock.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HdVOTxRVMJ4/WQP3Yl4n_gI/AAAAAAAAGOY/Q2TWO0picUE2cvRanD3Wu_0Bw3m1igrUgCEw/s1600/IMG_7964%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HdVOTxRVMJ4/WQP3Yl4n_gI/AAAAAAAAGOY/Q2TWO0picUE2cvRanD3Wu_0Bw3m1igrUgCEw/s640/IMG_7964%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And to the right side of the photo I also a few other embellishments. I used a few more bitty blooms, a cardstock ephemera arrow and one of the fun rubber embellishments. And of course to finish some more enamel dots.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-skCzF5r0SI4/WQP3WbCLdNI/AAAAAAAAGOY/vY1kZk6uWLQhewO-0AnM5y0rBj8s4FyhACEw/s1600/IMG_7962%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-skCzF5r0SI4/WQP3WbCLdNI/AAAAAAAAGOY/vY1kZk6uWLQhewO-0AnM5y0rBj8s4FyhACEw/s640/IMG_7962%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the title I used one of the Cocoa Vanilla Studio wood veneer words and some of the Thickers that came in the kits. I also finished the page with some splatters using the KaiserCraft 'Peach' mist that came in the TCK.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I hope you like this layout and grab some inspiration to create some layouts using your 'Belle' kits.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have a great day.</div>

Happy Easter everyone. I hope you are all having a lovely day with family or if you are reading this after hope you had a great day filled with family fun. So far we are just relaxing at home today and enjoying some family time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Although I would have liked to have had a Easter inspired layout/project to share I do have a layout which I love and is a lot simpler then what I normally do. I love, love, love how this turned out and I really like how it is cute and soft but without a whole lot of embellishments. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vE0o2STq15Q/WPA6TSbNpUI/AAAAAAAAGNA/HOrWRx6nFX4dRLQ_O-vmC4WeZMuQlw1-ACLcB/s1600/IMG_7664.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vE0o2STq15Q/WPA6TSbNpUI/AAAAAAAAGNA/HOrWRx6nFX4dRLQ_O-vmC4WeZMuQlw1-ACLcB/s640/IMG_7664.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew when I first got the 'Jade' kits I wanted to use the gorgeous gold glitter die cut as a title on one of my projects but I just didn't know how I would us it a I am normally a Thickers girl for a title. After watching a few of HeyNaeDaily's videos on YouTube I was inspired by her layouts which have the photo in the center. So after added al my layers behind my photo I added the die cut underneath and made a bow out of one of the papers in the kit and added that too. </div>

Behind my photo I added one f the beautiful dedicate doilies which come in the kits (Which you are unable to see), I also added same of the papers from the kits also. Within all the layers I added some white tulle to add a another element to make the layout soft and delicate. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also got some of my trusty American Crafts cardstock from my stash nd got the Cricut machine out of the box to cut some die cut eaves which I added to both sides of the photo. I also added a gold paper clip which was in one of the past kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And last but not least I added some enamel dot from my stash an added a few splatters of the grey KaiserCraft spray which in The Colour Kit. </div>

Good morning friends, I hope you are all enjoying your weekend. I sure am as school holidays is already half over but I have had loads of time to create.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I first had the idea for todays project I thought this would be perfect for an Easter project on the blog, but once I started making it didn't turn out Easter at all. But you could always use it as an Easter idea. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is this weeks project which I loved to make as I don't normally do anything else other then my normal 12x12 layouts, cards and Project Life. These cute little noodle boxes I made using a template I had, I am sure you could find a template on Pinterest ect. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Vo6dBF-5xsM/WOg-3C_1tgI/AAAAAAAAGMM/OMCsdoeu8B8IXnfL2MfHhtBHCov-PRcCQCLcB/s1600/IMG_7656.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Vo6dBF-5xsM/WOg-3C_1tgI/AAAAAAAAGMM/OMCsdoeu8B8IXnfL2MfHhtBHCov-PRcCQCLcB/s640/IMG_7656.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love how these turned out. All they used was a 6x6 size piece of patterned paper, adhesive and some embellishments. As I mentioned before I really wanted to make these for Easter but they didn't really turn out that way but I am sure you can see how s=cute they would be for Easter filled for some chocolate Easter eggs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Pean_3nz7OM/WOg_B9yOBxI/AAAAAAAAGMY/SPGliyEfv2oNacivAHnBBI8t5Umtpox3wCEw/s1600/IMG_7655.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Pean_3nz7OM/WOg_B9yOBxI/AAAAAAAAGMY/SPGliyEfv2oNacivAHnBBI8t5Umtpox3wCEw/s640/IMG_7655.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did add some embellishments from past kits but used the papers and KaiserCraft gems. All these needed were a few small embellishments as these boxes are quite small. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ped8EkF_edI/WOg-5XEQqiI/AAAAAAAAGMs/CFEpnPbCDRgSyCcljpzLfSHufD_4B1gsQCEw/s1600/IMG_7651.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ped8EkF_edI/WOg-5XEQqiI/AAAAAAAAGMs/CFEpnPbCDRgSyCcljpzLfSHufD_4B1gsQCEw/s640/IMG_7651.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AgMZ3Sot55c/WOg_SfRvbfI/AAAAAAAAGMs/a08uG_FeDcA6mze1tMkMV-H2ZEC9tdRkgCEw/s1600/IMG_7658.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AgMZ3Sot55c/WOg_SfRvbfI/AAAAAAAAGMs/a08uG_FeDcA6mze1tMkMV-H2ZEC9tdRkgCEw/s640/IMG_7658.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And to finish them off I added a piece of bakers twine from my stash which I think made them cute. I did use those KaiserCraft bloom which I am loving at the moment. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TX7bUfUn0Pw/WOg-_nfQTmI/AAAAAAAAGMs/A_rZ_kCCTZoNJxOrA1tBdfmlzxQkbZH7gCEw/s1600/IMG_7650.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TX7bUfUn0Pw/WOg-_nfQTmI/AAAAAAAAGMs/A_rZ_kCCTZoNJxOrA1tBdfmlzxQkbZH7gCEw/s640/IMG_7650.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CMNgKXgVkV0/WOg_OMIixjI/AAAAAAAAGMs/CL2JgFO1hxYZChxQkLRi65b1BrImuHOeACEw/s1600/IMG_7657.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CMNgKXgVkV0/WOg_OMIixjI/AAAAAAAAGMs/CL2JgFO1hxYZChxQkLRi65b1BrImuHOeACEw/s640/IMG_7657.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And this navy twined worked perfectly for one of the three boxes I made. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_pFgMbrpiOY/WOg_VXHlGvI/AAAAAAAAGMs/Rqs8dDmP8z0HTmrFncLCnjOKjJIrvqqJQCEw/s1600/IMG_7660.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_pFgMbrpiOY/WOg_VXHlGvI/AAAAAAAAGMs/Rqs8dDmP8z0HTmrFncLCnjOKjJIrvqqJQCEw/s640/IMG_7660.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well I hope you all like this idea and make some of your own for Easter perhaps. I sure did have a lot of fun making them as they are really easy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Good morning beautiful people. Well I am finally back with another blog post. It has been a cray few days being with the interruption of Ex Tropical Cyclone Debbie who made her may down into south-east Queensland where I live which made us stuck at home for a good two days due to major flooding after nearly 250mm of rain. But am back and on school holidays which mean only one thing, more scrapping time!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So since it is nearly time for new kit releases I am starting to get a little low on my current kit so I knew it was time to create a card. This year is a big year for my group of friends are it is the year we all turn 16. I thought it would be a good idea to start making a few birthdays for my friends.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oo9mGoCbcAA/WOGqEzfnaVI/AAAAAAAAGLg/C_i2y3YxDz0Opi6E0yxNj0qOtnY_QeNwwCLcB/s1600/IMG_7434.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oo9mGoCbcAA/WOGqEzfnaVI/AAAAAAAAGLg/C_i2y3YxDz0Opi6E0yxNj0qOtnY_QeNwwCLcB/s640/IMG_7434.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I have mentioned before I don't normally use chunky embellishments so I wouldn't normally use the KaiserCraft flowers but I am loving them which meant I had to use some on this card. And it wouldn't be complete without some of the KaiserCraft pearls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jVOD8VuFI1s/WOGqSbFeZNI/AAAAAAAAGLo/ZvzBysXhF5kKLn7kMw703VGQjcu1STvQgCEw/s1600/IMG_7437%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jVOD8VuFI1s/WOGqSbFeZNI/AAAAAAAAGLo/ZvzBysXhF5kKLn7kMw703VGQjcu1STvQgCEw/s640/IMG_7437%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And instead of just putting Happy Birthday on the front I just used the KaiserCraft gold numbers and teal alphas for 16th.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CU9UGSTPEVo/WOGqXXKu9YI/AAAAAAAAGLw/PjkFp6I9vkgX6qUYh0YNon1eiQhoJthfACEw/s1600/IMG_7443%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CU9UGSTPEVo/WOGqXXKu9YI/AAAAAAAAGLw/PjkFp6I9vkgX6qUYh0YNon1eiQhoJthfACEw/s640/IMG_7443%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All the papers I used are from the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Hello Lovely collection which is included in the current kits. I did also use a tag from the Cocoa Vanilla cut apart sheet which is in the PLK kit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xv4dlCnhWnU/WOGqShLH4BI/AAAAAAAAGLs/B301uOnEqgMA9LqSS0G4v2FyaunzcncVACEw/s1600/IMG_7439.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xv4dlCnhWnU/WOGqShLH4BI/AAAAAAAAGLs/B301uOnEqgMA9LqSS0G4v2FyaunzcncVACEw/s640/IMG_7439.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I hope you all liked this card I made and hopefully next weekend I will have the new kits ready to get scrapping with and let me tell you the new release kits are stoning and you will love them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have a lovely week.</div>

Hello scrappy peeps, I hope you are all having a lovely Sunday. I sure am while doing school assignments and a few crafty things while it rains here in south-east Queensland. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I am sharing a fun grid style layout using the "Jade" kits. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the full layout.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This has to be my favourite layout so far using these kits. Before joining The Scrappery team I had never used Cocoa Vanilla Studio but now I am just in love with all their collections.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nwxagVQBbjE/WM4RFi4m-UI/AAAAAAAAGKg/Lfww0P_XAA47A6Tx4ctjh0g5ipvjbxj1wCEw/s1600/IMG_7064.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="620" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nwxagVQBbjE/WM4RFi4m-UI/AAAAAAAAGKg/Lfww0P_XAA47A6Tx4ctjh0g5ipvjbxj1wCEw/s640/IMG_7064.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
I really wanted to use the three squares by 3 squares are I don't normally do that design style. Each square is 3x3 inches (I think). I did have one of the squares for my photo to be in. And with this kit there are so many cute mini embellishments that I could make many little clusters around the page. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V_-jUKTHW6Q/WM4SB2sc30I/AAAAAAAAGK4/sxf_CHuyKv8Dx74mjkL8NMgOH4pF_kZywCEw/s1600/IMG_7070%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V_-jUKTHW6Q/WM4SB2sc30I/AAAAAAAAGK4/sxf_CHuyKv8Dx74mjkL8NMgOH4pF_kZywCEw/s640/IMG_7070%2B%25232.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The paper doily I placed behind my photo I think made the layout soft and delicate.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SuxCXjkodQg/WM4Rv3qLtJI/AAAAAAAAGLI/cRGCvjI4qUUP4voz8a8j3A3b46MX7kfnwCEw/s1600/IMG_7066.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SuxCXjkodQg/WM4Rv3qLtJI/AAAAAAAAGLI/cRGCvjI4qUUP4voz8a8j3A3b46MX7kfnwCEw/s640/IMG_7066.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For all my little embellishment clusters throughout the layout I used the Cocoa Vanilla Studio cut a part sheets that came in the PLK.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0tYV2-buSjA/WM4R9rmsDrI/AAAAAAAAGLI/Gq7bSVtdgmACiUWHWonrbpvm14CClmD6gCEw/s1600/IMG_7068%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0tYV2-buSjA/WM4R9rmsDrI/AAAAAAAAGLI/Gq7bSVtdgmACiUWHWonrbpvm14CClmD6gCEw/s640/IMG_7068%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YikFvECBp5o/WM4R_abm3eI/AAAAAAAAGLI/kVAKIxWVl0IPcrx0n6oaQ10GSJ3iqPVagCEw/s1600/IMG_7069%2B%25232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YikFvECBp5o/WM4R_abm3eI/AAAAAAAAGLI/kVAKIxWVl0IPcrx0n6oaQ10GSJ3iqPVagCEw/s640/IMG_7069%2B%25232.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I may have mentioned this before in a bog post but I don't normally go for embellishments that give my pages a lot of dimension except for the likes of flair and some foam tape. But since getting The Scrappery kits I have jumped outside comfort zone and started using the KaiserCraft floral blooms which are perfect for my love of clusters.</div>
<br />

So there you have it another layout using the "Jade" kits. As I mentioned earlier this is my favourite layout so far using these kits. I better get going on my school assignments so that I can have some creative time to create next weeks project for you scrappy peeps to see.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a great week.</div>

Happy Sunday fellow Scrappery peeps, I hope you are all having a relaxed last day of the week. Today I am back to share another 12x12 layout using the "Jade" kits. I love these kits because of the fun bright colours with the add of florals and elements.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Todays layout is featuring the chevon 12x12 cut file sheet from KaiserCraft which is in the TSK.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are like me and love to do lots of embellishing on your layouts don't be scared to do a little bit of fussy cutting. All the paper embellishments I have used on this layout are all from the PLK cut a par sheets.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W42FQm_-WgM/WMTcGNQs2qI/AAAAAAAAGJU/HjFgc75ohvQDr_G1p3sZz63xBjT8ippPwCLcB/s1600/IMG_7055.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W42FQm_-WgM/WMTcGNQs2qI/AAAAAAAAGJU/HjFgc75ohvQDr_G1p3sZz63xBjT8ippPwCLcB/s640/IMG_7055.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew I wanted to use some of the KaiserCraft paper blooms as I don't normally use embellishments that give too much dimension. But I love how they look on this layout. I did also add a mini flair from my stash.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I love how fun the KaiserCraft cut file sheet gives to this page with one of the pieces of patterned paper from the TSK and love how bright and colorful it is.</div>

Good morning everyone on this fine Sunday morning (well it's a bit overcast here in south-east Queensland). Today I will be sharing a quick 12x12 layout I created in-between my mountain of school assignments using the new "Jade" kits.<br />
<br />
Even though this layout is simple for I like how it tuned out. And I love all the colours in these kits.<br />
</div>
<div align="center">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8VHoTrnI8nk/WLs2wfdq6UI/AAAAAAAAGIk/KeKAYhMew1wDU_NGZw4dwkLwNDhSIowlACLcB/s1600/IMG_6531.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="630" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8VHoTrnI8nk/WLs2wfdq6UI/AAAAAAAAGIk/KeKAYhMew1wDU_NGZw4dwkLwNDhSIowlACLcB/s640/IMG_6531.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I didn't do any layers under my photo other than the doily which gives the page a nice delicate feel. I did add some paper strips to give it a design element on the left hand side.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-C_AsQs5_QoA/WLs3ZyWK-AI/AAAAAAAAGIs/OZDTR0Z-_tc6s7IkHOTfmGfZwVJ1AQtAwCLcB/s1600/IMG_6534.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-C_AsQs5_QoA/WLs3ZyWK-AI/AAAAAAAAGIs/OZDTR0Z-_tc6s7IkHOTfmGfZwVJ1AQtAwCLcB/s640/IMG_6534.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Now you all know I have to have at least one cluster somewhere on my layouts. I did only do on big cluster (yes, I know only one cluster) which was situated on the bottom right hand corner of my photo. I added lots of embellishments which were in the Pretty Little Pieces which come in the TSK, PLK and BPK kits. </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IAlkjWl5W9E/WLs4z_m_BuI/AAAAAAAAGI0/F13MDJBoZKoPGiDTriMyEPb86Fx8jsNpQCLcB/s1600/IMG_6532.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IAlkjWl5W9E/WLs4z_m_BuI/AAAAAAAAGI0/F13MDJBoZKoPGiDTriMyEPb86Fx8jsNpQCLcB/s640/IMG_6532.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I added that gorgeous tulle and fabric flower, some of the KaiserCraft paper blooms, gold chevrons from the stickers sheet in the PLK, some of the beautiful sequins and KaiserCraft pearls, the gold glitter leaves, a tag and my title using the beautiful teal alpha stickers from KiaserCraft from the TSK.<br />
</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I know this is a quick blog post today but I will be back very soon (maybe with another layout during the week) for you all. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday and start of the week and get some time to create using your "Jade" kits.<br />

Happy Sunday everyone,<a href="http://lydiascr.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank"> Lydia</a> back today to share my first Project Life style layout using the brand new 'Jade' kits I use the PLK and a mix of the other kits. Unfortunately I didn't have a project last week due to having a school assignment due but I am back and I am very excited because the brand new January kits arrived at my door during the week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am excited to share my first Project Lie spread here on The Scrappery blog as I almost have a whole year to catch up on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the whole spread. I love all the colours which are in these kits. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4oaheXChWBM/WKf20seimdI/AAAAAAAAGG4/mAUnHefh9LoebUKdjHqXxPCHdbpL5JFHgCLcB/s1600/IMG_6451.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="330" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4oaheXChWBM/WKf20seimdI/AAAAAAAAGG4/mAUnHefh9LoebUKdjHqXxPCHdbpL5JFHgCLcB/s640/IMG_6451.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the left side of the spread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7aSkpyt7fso/WKf3vNTaQnI/AAAAAAAAGHI/ddV9jpzNVGo2bMoDEVbbG_mDyVhMGCJRwCLcB/s1600/IMG_6440.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="618" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7aSkpyt7fso/WKf3vNTaQnI/AAAAAAAAGHI/ddV9jpzNVGo2bMoDEVbbG_mDyVhMGCJRwCLcB/s640/IMG_6440.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the right side of the spread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Y0aRR1y2JLk/WKf4CSD4N2I/AAAAAAAAGHQ/1V5LcfK8yUMPNvrI2C971-bynGTy1vo8wCLcB/s1600/IMG_6445.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="618" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Y0aRR1y2JLk/WKf4CSD4N2I/AAAAAAAAGHQ/1V5LcfK8yUMPNvrI2C971-bynGTy1vo8wCLcB/s640/IMG_6445.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I loved using the Cocoa Vanilla cut apart sheets which came in the PLK. Since this was my first time receiving the PLK I knew I wanted to share a Project Life spread with it because how could I not with all those gorgeous colours. Ronelle does an amazing shop coordinating and designing all the kits.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here are a few close ups of the little embellishment clusters I did around the spread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh I am in love with those KaiserCraft florals and sequins together, you will be seeing that a lot this month.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V7BmJI7dTQI/WKf5IVngk3I/AAAAAAAAGH4/TmBk4A6DlIICT4rz_SInNoyuYO3RY-SZwCEw/s1600/IMG_6430.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V7BmJI7dTQI/WKf5IVngk3I/AAAAAAAAGH4/TmBk4A6DlIICT4rz_SInNoyuYO3RY-SZwCEw/s640/IMG_6430.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
