Two layouts to share

Hi all, you know by now that I'm a huge Prima fan so I want to share two Prima layouts.

The first is of myself with our cat Smoes. My sweetie.....

I cut out a lot of paper, so love to do that!

And added lots and lots of flowers, a pin with beads

Some bling,

More bling and a overlay by MME,

Even a peace of a bracelet. The heart is painted with MM and glazed with Rangers.

The second is not just Prima but I used the diecut sheet of Bo Bunny.

The colors go so well together.

The chipboard butterfly by Maya Road is painted with Blonde Moments and MM, heat embossed with Rangers black embossing powder.

Thank you so much for looking and leaving a comment.
I have some good news but can't tell you about it just yet!

And have you noticed on Facebook that Little Shop of Sketches is starting up again?

I love Tanya's sketches.

I started a card today with some Tilda paper and a mini album for Nikki Sivils.

have to work tomorrow so no time to scrap during the day. Our reception is moving to a temporary place, have to take my camera to work and take some pics.

Well, this is it for now. I wish you a wonderful weekend,

We have a winner....... Put all your names in a bowl and who came out first? Congrats to Carole Stirrat!! Email me you address this week to mieke0510@hotmail.com and Nikki will sent you your collection of papers! Do let me know what you do with it!

Then my tutorial, I was looking at Stacey Cohen's blog and saw how she made a frame to her layout. That gave me the inspiration to do something like that. So I started with a frame from Technique Tuesday as a mask and cut out the middle.

Then I cut out some things from the wonderful Webster Pages paper.

I glued two kind of lace to the back of the frame. And added some cardboard to get that 3d effect.

This is the front of the frame

This is what I added later on the paper. Also used Distress Ink Vintage Photo.

And here you see the result, added some Prima E-line crystals and some Prima flowers and leafs. Don't you just love that Tattered Angels frame? Most materials come from the April kit of My Creative Scrapbook. Check out their website, the new kit is up and so sweet!

Thank you so much for your interest in my blog and my give away, hope you will stick around to see more of my creations. I really appriciate having you around!

The heart is Bazzil glued on a piece of chipboard and then cut out.

Layout and some photo's

I found this wonderful sketch on Creative Scrappers, and you know how much I love sketches.

I had just received my printed photo's, these were printed a bit smaller then the usual size so they fitted just right for this layout.

I'm so happy with my latest My Creative Scrapbook kit, full with Webster Pages Life Portrait. I cut out some and added some glitter with a clear Jelly Roll pen to it.

Sewed by hand.

I used a lot of Zva Creative this time. I must say it's a lot better then last year. I didn't have any trouble getting it of the sheets.

My mum and her friend Annemarie made this dress for Mara for the musical at school.

Can you tell she loved the dress? LoL!

I'm so glad it's such nice warm spring weather right now.
To have my backdoor open, drinking my tea outside.
Walking in the garden enjoying the new leaves and the flowers
I took my camera this morning and found some beauty of nature.
