Prima Marketing & Ingvild Bolme Blog Hop




Welcome to the Prima Marketing 
& Ingvild Bolme Blog Hop!!!

 I am so excited to be a part of this hop and to be able to share my work with you all.

 So here is what I have created...

My background has been created with grungeboard painted in Gesso and then have layered my favourite Prima Marketing range, Lyric, along with using the Lyric stamp set around my edges and Lyric flowers.



I have used an Ingvild Bolme's clock face and hand as well as Prima Marketing Say It In Crystals.


My embellishments include an Ingvild Bolme's gorgeous Rusty Typo Zipper, Typo Bulb, Jeans Buttons and Fly Away Resin Treasure.





And a little sneak of some Ingvild's amazing new lines if you hadn't already spotted these on the Prima blog...
I am dying to get my hands on all of these, pretty amazing aren't they?



Thanks so much for stopping by!!!



Enjoy the rest of the hop :)

New Creations For Ingvild Bolme

Back again....two posts in one day!!

This time is to share my new design team projects for the very talented Ingvild Bolme...

First up a little canvas. As a self confessed control freak who gets easily flustered when things don't got to plan, 'Keep Calm' is pretty much my daily mantra....



I have used a combination of acrylic paint, Crackle Paint, Luminarte H20 watercolors and Ingvild Bolme Chalk Fluid edgers in White, Brick & Black Coal to create my background.


I have used a couple of my staple go to embellishments, Ingvild Bolme Junkyard Findings Small Typo Bulbs. Can't get enough of these babies!!!!






As well as a Junkyard Findings Special Screw to hang them with and some Junkyard Findings Jeans Buttons studs to the corners of my canvas.




My next project is an Art Journal cover...



I have used some 7Dots Studio 'Love Is In The Air' paper as my base and added lots of different art mediums to create texture and depth.




My embellishments include a Ingvild Bolme stunning 'Fly Away' Resin Treasures, a 'Typo Bulb', a 'Rusty Typo Zipper' as well as more stunning 'Junkyard Findings Jeans Buttons' and 'Bolts And Nuts'.

As well as some Prima Flowers, Wood Icons & stamp, 7Dots Studio Stickers and 2Crafty chipboard.




Thanks so much for stopping by....again!!

My journalling is on the back of my layout..

2Crafty July Creations

Hi girls :) 

OMG it has been so long since I have been to blogger that I actually forgot my password. Things have been somewhat hectic here, hence the crickets chirping around here.

The main reason, a house move. We have downsized from a two story 5 bedroom home with two double garages full of stuff to a small 3 bedroom with a single car garage. It was a fortnight long move and although I now have our house all sorted, our backyard and garage is still looking like something from Hoarders. Add to that a stocktake sale for my store which has kept me busy also, and I haven't had a lot of time for scrapping.

But am back on board this month with lots of exciting things happening.  

And today I get to share my very first creations as design team member for 2Crafty chipboard. I am having so much fun playing with these designs, they are just awesome.

So here are some sneaks to start with ( I know I am cruel) and if you want to see the entire projects, pop on over to the 2crafty blog!!




Hope everyone is doing well, hope to catch up on some blogs too this week!

I will back later in the week with some more projects :)

Classes, CSI & A New Design Team!!


Hey everyone!! 
I hope your weekend is going well so far. 
So I have a long list of things to get through so will get started...

So in response to the almost daily requests I get about classes, I have created an online class..YAY! So basically this is everything you get in a normal face to face class but you get to do it from home in your pj's or like a few girls who have already pre-ordered these kits, have a crop night using the kit & class.

So, you get a full kit with mixed media products, tutorial and tips and tricks. I have based this kit around collage layering techniques which is what I get asked most about.

Each kit is $32 which includes everything. Without having to get on a plane, book a hotel and hire a venue it is 1/2 the price of a normal class plus you get two projects instead of one and get to keep the mixed media goodies once you are done!!

So I am taking pre-orders up until the 10th June, with delivery due around the 3rd/4th week of June.  I can ship within both Australia & Internationally.

To pre-order click here


Ok next on my list is a new layout as part of my Guest Designer spot over at CSI this month. Here is the challenge...


And here is my take. At the time I didn't have any papers that matched this color palette so all my color has been added with art mediums and embellishments. Slightly different to my normal style, bit of a throw back to what I use to create12 months ago!!





And last on my list but certainly not least you may notice a new DT badge on my side bar. I am very excited to announce that I have been invited to join the uber talented team over at 2Crafty. Just LOVE LOVE their chipboard so I am sooo excited to get started to soon :)

So that's it for now, thanks for stopping by!

Prima BAP & Get Creative Challenge


Hi guys :) 
My blog has been pretty quiet lately as I haven't been well and not really in the mood for scrapping. Add to that a lack of mojo and dust has been collecting in my craft room. Despite this I have missed it and decided to have a go at this months Prima BAP. Yeah not my best work but it felt good to at least get something done (haven't decided if I will actually send it in or not lol). This layout has been created using the beautiful Prima Marketing Ladybird range.



This is the sketch which I turned upside down...



I had a lot of scraps left over on my desk after this layout so I decided to put them to use and join in with a challenge over at Get Creative to make tags featuring flowers...


Thanks for stopping by!!
Have a great weekend....
