Just Jack

I love this little man!  He has gotten much bigger lately, he is now almost 3, I cannot believe it!  This page was completed from a Basic Grey Page of the Month Kit.  I never really follow the instructions however they are supplied in the kit and when you become part of my BG Page of the month Club you will get the opportunity the participate in the page class each month for no extra cost. The class will take place at my studio!

Wonderful...

I love these photos of my dear daughter Sienna! She is growing up so fast and I thing she looks so much older than she is in these photos!  The daycare always give you the proof strips too so rather than cut them up I just left them as is for this page!  The colour combo needed a little burst so I added some pink to match Sienna`s shirt!  Of course the challenge was to use some pearls so I accented with some pearl brads I had tucked away in my stash!  Be sure to check out the amazing work of our DT and guests, The guest work and DT pulled out some stunning layouts enjoy and play along!!!  GO TO www.color-me-scrappy.blogspot.com and have some fun with us!!!!

Art Journal Canvas

Well I was resistant at first and I don't know why...I had not tried this "art journalling" before and I was provided a prefect combination of opportunity and inspiration from my co-designers at Scrap'n With Flair (those ladies are so talented) and the Art on the Severn Art Show I help organize decided to have some committee members show their work as well.

I used the Scrap'n With Flair July Plumeria Kit and some old canvases I had kicking around!  I also used mat gel medium and gesso to get the first few layers down.  Then added some great embellies some from my stash but most of the flowers, bling, pearls, jewels and trim were from the add-on kit. Then I played with adding some colour by using inks that came in the kit and some acrylic paint.

My partner and I just bought a house so we are going to put these in our new living room!  

Happy Scrappin!
