Be Mine


Today I've been working on a very lovely layout of me and my fiancée in my garden after building a snowman on 5th February when we had lots of snow :-) We had a really lovely day playing in the snow we even went to the local farm shop and watched some Disney films <3

So for this layout I used piece of Bo Bunny love bandit paper which I embellished with different strips of patterned paper and ribbon with some yummy buttons.


Also I used a metal flower in aqua from sassafras with a beautiful Pearl center :-)

37 of Life's Achievements

For this Layout I used My Little Shoe Box- Green Tree House as a base and the focus of this layout is the journalling and title '37 Of Life's Achievements' and I used a picture of my self from my Disneyland trip.
These Element stickers from Eco Park- For the record really tied in nicely with the feel of this layout specially the sticker saying list... I normally hand write my journalling as I find it more personal however there was no way I would be able to fit this all in on my layout and as the journallying was the main focus of this layout I decided to type this out as. I had been reflecting on my life after reading 100 things to do before I die and I realized that I had actually achieved a lot all ready and added on some of my own achievements to the list. I just love these Brads from My Minds Eye Lost & Found collection which were in my January back to basics kit from Scrapagogo.... Lush

London Day Trip

This was such a fun day me and Tina went to London for the day on 2nd January 2012 to explore the London sights we first went to Kings Cross train station to visit platform 9 3/4 from a Harry Potter super fan it was amazing!!! then we went to Harrods and browsed all the expensive chocolates, handbags, wine and clothes . then we went to the Hard Rock cafe for lunch and finished off with shopping in convent garden where we saw a giant reindeer.
I found this amazing border sticker to separate the smaller pictures from the large picture which I found in my stash from Eco Park Life is good collection. I added some Cath Kiddston Badges which I brought in the Cath Kiddston shop in London to embellish this layout. as well as some labels form My Minds Eye to add the date to the layout.

I've been saving this piece of Bo Bunny paper for a very special photograph and what can be any better than this one of me and the work girls at the Christmas staff party. we went to the three rivers golf club for a Vegas themed night which was alcohol included need I say anymore!!! I loved these elf and Santa brads sooooo cute <3 and I used Thickers chipboard alphabet letters.
This second layout I used some very embarrassing pictures of us all singing on the dance floor after a drink or too... I also had Mc Hammer cant touch this played which I LOVE!!!!
I used some Christmas rub ons I had in my kit to embellish the photographs.
These Christmas trees were cut out of some patterned papers and layered on to 3D foam pads.

Masqurade Ball

Me and Lauren were invited to celebrate Soph's 23rd birthday and Sarah's leaving do as she's was emigrating to new Zealand which was very emotional for everyone.



This first layout is a photo of me, Lauren and Claire in our lovely ball gowns and masks we all had such a good evening.I created this layout with Cosmo Cricket Lavender Bling chipboard alphabet.
With Black Bazzill card stock and a selection of Pinkpaislee patterned paper from my Scrapagogo November kit- Chic Boutique. I Layered up some very yummy Pinkpaislee Vintage Vogue paper tags. i really liked the Dr.Miracles 100% beauty cream tag and I also used a Prima Vintage Trinket to add a bit of bling to the corner of the photo.


This next layout was of just me and Lauren doing what best friends do ... posing :-) I added lots of girly elements to these layouts and really picked up on the colours of our dresses black and purple and our masks with gold sparkles.

I created the layout with a selection of pinkpaislee patterned paper cut into strips. I used the stamp from the scrapagogo kit with white ink and made a black lace bow and used a pearl pin to fasten the bow.
I used the black Tickers alphabet to create the title for this layout.... perfect.

Rhodes september 2011


Me and my beautiful fiancée were lucky enough to visit Rhodes this year we went for one weeks chill out in the sunshine and it was very hot, I had a lovely time relaxing by the pool or on the beach. These pictures were taken on the one day we decided to visit Rhodes town and we were able to visit inside Rhodes town castle the gardens were amazing and the harbour was very picturesque :-)

I scrap lifted the idea for this layout from Maggie Holmes published layout in Creating Keepsakes scrapbooking Holidays and Celebrations 2011 magazine. It was perfectly suited for my holiday pictures and I adapted the layout with my materials in my kitO

I just love the button and flag washing lines I created using aqua thread and vibrant coloured buttons from my stash.
