Sunshine Scrapping

I love using happy and colourful papers.
These Belle BLVD papers are the perfect sunny papers (despite being Easter/Spring) themed.
Sometimes, you've just got to look beyond the theme.

I have a blog post on Papermaze here with lots of little tips.
I had so much fun making this.

Fun in the Sushine

It's hard to imagine fun in the sunshine on this very drizzly day today.
I do have a sunny LO on the Papermaze blog today though.
With a step by step process here.
I do love those happy Bella BLVD papers : )

Thanks for popping in today.
I hope you have sunshine wherever you may be xxx

Bella Cards

Hello!!!!
I hope you had a lovely weekend.

I have some fun and colourful cards on the Papermaze blog today.
I had so much fun with the Bella BLVD papers.
They are one of my favourite manufacturers right now.

I have some close ups and some 'how to' techniques too on the Papermaze blog here.

Thanks.
Have a good week.

Bodging a 'B' and a great Milkshake

It's become a little tradition that when we visit Celebration in Orlando we stop for Coke floats by the lake. It's the most beautiful setting.

Hollie went for a strawberry milkshake this time and said it was the best milkshake ever.

 I used the Belle BLVD - Molly papers on this LO.
Aren't they fun?!!

 

I was missing a 'B' though so had to create one myself.

Did I pull it off?

 

 

These are such pretty papers.

I cut out some of the flowers and leaves and added a little crackle glaze to the centre of the flowers.

 

Or Florida album is looking so colourful.

 

I hope you have a bright and colourful day xxx

Sibling Love

Louis was 13 a couple of weeks ago.
He wanted to have his birthday meal at Nandos.
It was a really fun evening.

I'm so lucky that our two get on so well.
Louis has become incredibly annoying these recent past months which has put a strain on them. Even the big sisterly love is struggling, but they are still friends and still have a laugh together.

I made this LO using the Bella BLVD collection - Family Forever.

I just love these happy primary colours.
Here are a few close ups.

 

I have full details on how to make this mixed media LO over on Papermaze today along with more close ups.
I was a really fun one to make.
Please check out the blog here.

Thank you xxx

Eight Photos & Eight Stars

I'm sharing a fun and very colourful page today.

This was such a fun day at Hollywood Studios. The teens were at their best. Makes a huge difference to the day. The colours needed to be bright and fun to reflect upon the day we had.

I used to really struggle with multi photo LO's but I seem to make them more and more lately.

I used the Bella BLVD - Lucky Starz collection on this page.

It's half term here right now. Kids are at home for the week.

So far so good and it's already Wednesday.

I'm taking Louis and 2 friends out for ice cream whilst Hollie has a couple of friends over and does afternoon tea for them. How times have changed : )

Enjoy your day xxx  

It was very well 'REPLENISHED'!!

His bowl was, that's for sure!

Our OLW this month is 'REPLENISH'.
This was actually hubby's idea for this LO of mine.
I asked him what he thought of when I say the word and he came up with 'buffet'.
I swear all that man think of is his belly!!

So from that came this.
The Fussy Eaters Paradise

I copied the meaning of the word replenish from an online dictionary and popped it in to a teeny Fancy Pants paper bag.

 

I used lots of pieces from Bella BLVD on this page. I find the packs of paper pieces really handy to use. They make creating a LO very easy and fun and I love the colour that they add.

This boy sure loves the American Buffets.
It's so good to go somewhere with him and see him eat and eat and not complain.

I also used a piece of Scrapmatts Chipboard. I used a Tim Holtz White stain first and then took a red sharpie and just coloured in the 'wow' bit to make it stand out.

This challenge will run for the next month.
If you want to join us and play along or if you simply want to see what the other OLW designers have created, please take a look here.

Thanks so much xxx
