Bellissima!

Those of you who know me or who have followed my story - I have been living in Italy for the past 17+ months while still managing Wild About Scrap with help in Australia for the hands-on stuff.  During this time I have not seen one scrappy piece of anything except what I see through the Internet - thank-you Facebook & Blogger!!!  Finally I cracked....last winter was TERRIBLE - wet and cold and I did nothing except read, sleep and eat....this winter I decided would be different....and it is!  It's sunny and warm to start with and last week I received what I've called my "care package" from the lovely Bridget who is helping me with the store.  So, for my very first creation in over 18 months, I'd like to show you one where I have both used a subject foreign to me (a baby), plus products and techniques I haven't used before....I never said I did anything the easy way. :)

Nature's Beauty

With the high temperature and humidity these last few days its been a good time to spend in doors trying to keep cool and get creative, so I have been doing lots, everything but cleaning up my messy workspace. Today I want to share a layout as its been quite sometime since I last did one, been playing with mixed media and tags etc instead :)

Carta Bella Layout

Yep I am on a roll getting through the last few items in my delicious DT Kit

More Card Photos

Not sure what blogger is up to but it would'nt let me add any more photos in that last post so fingers crossed I can put them up here :) Hope that you feel inspired to start your 2013 Christmas cards early :)

It's Never Too Early to Make Your Christmas Cards For This Year !!!

 

More November/December Kit creations for you.  Yes, yes I know Christmas 2012 is done and dusted but the items in my kit were too good not to use up.  So here are 4 Christmas cards made with the Fancy Pants Home For Christmas range of papers and stickers. 

 

Also used was Tim Holtz Idea-ology Festive Foilage The only other things added to these cards from my stash were inks, ribbon, rhinestones and some flowers and leaves.  Oh and stamps and border punches were also used .

Tiny Top Hat

Happy New Year!
 

Getting into the spirit of New Year I created this little Top Hat! rather cute I think :) You could add it to a hairclip or headband for something different or use it to adorn a table as a little gift for dinner guest. All you need is 1 large circle, 1 smaill circle and a strip of cardboard or bazzill. Some leftover lace or ribbon and a few little embellishments. I used what was lying around on my workspace (which I am about to clean!!) some tulle, blossom flower and a feather :) glue it altogether and you have this tiny top hat!

Head on over to the Wild About Scrap store and grab yourself some bargins and get creating :)

Remember the good things in life, enjoy every moment and have a great year

Angel Tag

Playing with all the goodies Veronica sends in the kits is easy, updating the blog is the hard part! Completed projects sit until I find time to take photos, then the write up... ah well thats another hard bit!

In my last DT kit from Wild About Scrap I was very fortunate to recieve TH Sizzix alterations die Layered Angel Wings amoungst my goodies. I am so in love with this die I had to make a quick tag.
