2 Crafty pieces for April

Hi friends, This month has been a bit of a rough one and I fear that I have fallen behind on my blog posts! We’ve had a few 4-day weeks (with 2 more to come) and thus we have been away a lot. Not only that, but we had an attempted burglary at my home,…

Love You | FABSCRAPS DT

Fabscraps have launched two absolutely beautiful new ranges; with each range, they just exceed the beauty of the ones that came before. They are also running a competition on their Facebook page – here. And I’d be VERY grateful if you could head on over and vote for me! Pretty please!? For my entry, I…

Family | The Studio DT

Hi guys! Busy busy busy is what I have been! And busy busy busy is what I will stay for the next few weeks. I’m a little stressed out about it, but nothing some good old ‘head down’ won’t fix! This weekend, our sketch challenge for April went live over at The Studio Challenges: I…

My next project is for Let’s Get Sketchy, featuring another fab sketch by Brenshevia. Here is what I did with this sketch this month: I opted to create an inked background star shape instead of using paper – and I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. I wanted to stick to colours that blend…

Capture Memories | Mix It Up Challenge Blog

I loved working on this month’s challenge at Mix It Up – Anything Goes plus the option of using Black and White with one other colour. It has to be said that yellow is not one of my favourite colours – especially when I am scrapbooking. But I REALLY loved this photograph of my daughter…

Shine | CSI DT

Would you look at how divine Case File 279 is!!! I just loved working with this one! I worked with red, yellow, white, pink and charcoal. I was inspired by the dots and stripes, as well as the cursive font. I also loved the white space element of this image, so I decided to work…

Choose Happy | CSI DT

We have a rather delicious Cold Case file over at CSI: Color Stories Inspiration this month. From the moment I laid eyes on this beautiful image, I knew that I wanted to try my best to recreate it. I popped my photo in the centre and then I fussy cut a large selection of flowers…
