Wonder...

This page is titled "Wonder" as that's exactly the expression on Shiloh's face....facing a new year of challenges at school, wondering what path to take, where life will take her.

And a couple of close ups of that texture....

I had two challenge sites that I used for inspiration for this page - 

Firstly the sketch is by Laura at Stuck?! Sketches, I love how it makes it easy to put my own stamp on things. If you would like to play along you have until the end of the month - just have a look here.

And this is the sketch I used...

Secondly thank you to Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge for the title inspiration, this challenge is also open to the end of the month - have a play along with this challenge too - go on, you know you want to! Have a look at it here.

Also, I have to say - I'm a major fan of Bo Bunny texture paste - a really nice effect and so simple to use. 

Thanks for having a look, leave a comment if you like it ;;)

Million Dollar Smile

The braces are off and the smile is worth the dollars :) Loving the purple hair too! ;)

This was a chance to try out the new Bazzill Basics Plastic Paper available at The Paper Teapot here ... Its kind of like using a more robust vellum, beautiful colours and translucent.

 

You can emboss it...

 Die Cut it....

 Punch it, or roll it for flowers - sorry I didn't get a close up of those!

 You can also run it through your Silhouette - on a slow setting, high with the blade to make a cute little Easter Bunny Box like this one..

I used mini glue dots to piece it together, you can't really see them, but otherwise you could use vellum tape or spray adhesive. 

Other credits: Cocoa Vanilla Papers and embellies, Blue Fern chipboard title and Typo wood veneers.

Go on - have a play too!

Mind the Gap!

This photo was taken on Breanna's sixth birthday - just love the missing teeth grin! :))

This page came together really quickly with Cocoa Vanilla's Free Spirit range (available from The Paper Teapot here)- so many gorgeous bits and pieces to work with. I added some WOW chipboard, a Doodlebug doily, some Typo wood veneers and washi, and a Heidi Swapp word.

I still felt it needed something else so I swished on some Bo Bunny Glitter paste and outlined the circles with Kindyglitz.

Leave me a comment if you :X it!

Geek Girl

This kid cracks me up!

And she was even happy for me to take the photos....

Nothing else to be said really lol

The paper I used in this one is Amy Tangerine from American Crafts,the arrows are by Freckled Fawn, the washi is from Typo, the letters are Thickers and Doodlebug, and the wood veneer is from Papervine. I also used a Kaisercraft stencil and Tim Holtz ink.
