Have you seen the last sketch of the year from Sketchbook365?
You can see it here.
It's such a cute sketch.

Teaming up with my Cocoa Daisy Girls

Hello Lovelies!!!

It's dizzy Lisa here. I must sound so boring to everyone. 3 weeks in and still dizzy.
I'll change the subject already.
Something fun instead.

This month a group of us from Cocoa Daisy got together to play with glassine envelopes.
We get them in our main kits most months. Christine pops all the little bits and pieces inside these.
So we thought it would be fun to show some different ways to use them.

This is how I used mine this month.

 

I used it for my hidden journaling.

I do love to journal, but you don't always want the journaling itself to be the main focal point, so by popping it inside the little frosted envelope, the photos then remain the main focus of the page. 

   I told the story of how we were in Disney's Animal Kingdom watching the parade. This charachter came around, high 5'd Louis and kissed me on the head, HARD, REAL HARD. It gave me an instant headache which lasted the rest of the day : ( Mean bear/bunny thing)

I'd love you to check out the Cocoa Daisy blog post and see what the other girls have done with their glassine envelopes. It's a really cool blog post.

Thanks. Have a lovely day xxx 

His New Cap

Another Cocoa Daisy LO for you today.
The main kit and the addons are now on sale to everyone here.
Extra numbers have been added this month so it doesn't sell out so fast.

I made this LO about Louis and his new cap from when we were in Orlando.

I used the Websters Pages overlay in top of the grey cardstock and made some little flags.

 

These were my favourite Thickers from CHA. Aren't they cool???

I added a few yellow stitches over the top. It bought the colours together nicely.

I trimmed down the grey cardstock and had this little strip left over that curled up, so I stapled it to the bottom of the design and added some more stitches.

This LO along with yesterdays have been featured on the Webster's Pages blog today along with a couple of LO's from Denise. There is also a $20 giveaway, so go check it out here.
Good Luck!!

Enjoy yoyr weekend and thanks for stopping by xx

My Favourite LO Ever

I have LOVED this months Cocoa Daisy more than any other kit I think.
It's like Christine knew what all my best bits from CHA were and crammed them all into one kit.
I do confess that I did get every addon this month.
That may be a first from me and says a lot about this kit.

I created my favourite LO ever using these beautiful Webster's Pages papers. I just love Allison Kreft's collections.

I started with some moulding paste and a new Crafters Workshop Stencil (which is why it looks so clean!)

 Added a little misting using my favourite CW mask 'Sunburst' using Maya Mists Pink Ginger and Cotton Candy Metallic.

 

I then cut up the pretty papers and lay them on my page.

Added a favourite photo from our Orlando trip taken in Epcot.

 

And added some hand stitching to finish off this pretty LO.

   I may just have to frame this one.

As Feb is such a short month, the kits will go on sale to non subbers tomorrow here. 

On that happy note I shall wish you a happy weekend.
Lots of love xxx
