Kit sneaks and a Helmar Share

I thought some of you may like sneaks of the other projects you can create with the left over's from my first kit!
Intrigued?

Head on over to the website www.scrappychatdesigns.blogspot.com.au for more sneak peak pictures!  I am also currently running a special on the kits until the 15th February, and given they are nearly already sold out (in 2 days!) you better get in quick to order.    It will also make me get the second kit up a little quicker for everyone to get their hands on!

I would also like to take some time to share my recent post for Helmar   I made these 2 projects teaming up some Helmar and ClearSnap products as part of this week's partnership with ClearSnap.  I was so excited to be given an opportunity to work with some of Donna Salazar's Mixed Media inx by ColorBox.  I teamed that up with some of ColorBox's Fluid Chalk inkpads, to create these two projects! 

The first is a mixed media canvas for my craft room.



The second project I completed was for the Monthly Helmar Challenge.  I just LOVE these!  

Head on over to the blog post to see all the details and have a go!  




Well I hope you enjoyed my little share today... I have some lovely layouts coming up full of yummy Spellbinders dies teamed up with Bazzill products and of course all held together with my trusty Helmar!

A quick share

OK so I couldn't resist a little share today of a layout I created while travelling on our holiday.  I created this layout using so many wonderful Spellbinders dies teamed up with different mediums all in layers to achieve this look.

You would be mistaken to think that I have used a heap of ready made flowers on this layout, but no, they were all created with spellbinders dies.  I pre-cut them while stationary and as I am able to read or do anything in the car, I made them while hubby was driving.  Funny enough it was good meaning I actually ate less naughty snack food as I was kept busy.

I also used paperclay to create the vines for the flowers to sit on.




 
 The dimension on this layout could never have been achieved with out my trusty Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots.

For a full list of products used on this layout, head on over to the Down Under Direct inspiration blog for my post here

Hope you enjoyed my little un-planned share today.


Spellbinders Craft to win competition

I recently entered the Spellbinders Explore beyond craft to win competition, and I thought I should share my exciting news!

You can see the full details of the competition here but in a nutshell, there was 6 categories, and 2 from each category was chosen as finalists.  I was lucky enough to have this layout chosen.  I have sent my layout off to the US and I now wait, not so patiently, to hear the announcement of the winners!  I am very excited to have been chosen as a finalist, and anything more from here would be a bonus.  It is SUCH an amazing price, so I want to say thanks to Spellbinders Paper Arts for running and obviously sponsoring it, along with their preferred partners.

Here is my layout:



I think that the thing I love most about this layout being chosen is that it is the first layout I created while away in our caravan one weekend.

Please keep your fingers crossed for me.  I would REALLY love for my layout to be on show at CHA!

Published! Australian Scrapbook Ideas



WOW two posts in 2 day!!   Getting off to a great start! 

Here are some layouts I recently had published in Australian Scrapbook Ideas volume 16 and 16.

The first was a ‘tried and tested’ article that I completed using Tim Holtz Distress Markers.  I really enjoyed using them on this feature and now own the complete set!  Personally autographed by Tim himself I might add :D 

These are the layouts I did all using Kaisercraft’s ‘Save the date’ range.



The next feature that was published in Australian Scrapbook Ideas was in volume 17.  It was a feature on multiple baby photos on a single layout.  I REALLY enjoyed creating these layouts getting reminiscing on my second boy’s first few months.  The little girls in the pink circular one are a dear friends little girls, the pics were just perfect for this!


















For those of you that didn’t get started on those new year changes you’ve been wanting to make… maybe Day 3 is your day!  Good luck!!

Tomorrow I will again share some work I was busy creating over the past few months, this time for Helmar!
