Evening All :)

Popping in to share with you my latest 
layout for
CSI 
An awesome colour scheme
compelling evidence & the testimony....well what can I say!?


Colour Scheme- All colours
Evidence-  Stripes- background paper (7 gypsies pp), Hearts- coconut button (craftqueen), random hearts, wet medium- texture paste (used with Tim Holtz stencil), string- top stitch thread..
Testimony- 'Exquisite Treasure' (Photograph taken by Sarah Parish)
This is a photo of a friends daughter......little 'Ayva' she is such a stunning little girl. I first met them when Ayva was a newborn bundle of joy and have loved watching her grow. She is in my opinion A Exquisite Treasure!
 Although I don't see them anymore I do love watching her grow through Facebook.

September 2014 Magical Mid Month Reveal.






Hello there :)

So it is that time of the month all ready
MID-MONTH REVEAL
4
Scrap Around The World

has created a magical fairytale mood board for us this month....
It is just so sweet, and I'm sure you all agree!

 
Beautiful isn't it!

And here is my layout...
Now, I have had this Maja Design paper in my stash for some time now 
and just couldn't bring myself to use it.....It is just soooo pretty...until now!!
I didn't want to cover it's prettiness in a lot of stuff, so I have just added a little subtle texture
by using gesso and a kaisercraft stamp & also some Metallic Melts.
 
The stunning little miss in my layout is 'Ayva', a friends daughter and she kindly gave me permission to use her gorgeous photo's .......Thank You, Sarah!


A big thank you to Miss Annette Edmonds for giving me that stunning big flower from her stash
I love how it looks...xxx 
I have used leaf ribbon, kaisercraft stamp and buttons from

and (yes there is more!!)
in Pink Sorbet
