B....is for Buttons!

This month we have been playing with buttons on the DT over at Scrapology. We have had the pleasure of lifting the fabulous work of Laura Vegas


Here is my offering for the DT this time.....the photo is of our eldest girly ( she is 18 now!) This was a Christmas photo taken at her playschool and we borrowed the lovely dress from a good friend of mine just for the photos.
 

Why  not pop over to Scrapology and see what lovely layouts the rest of my teamies have created, its lovely to see different variations of the same page.
We would love to have you play along with us and enter the challenge....and there is a super kit that you could win.... cram packed full of fab goodies. So come on, what are you waiting for!

M is for Mixed Media over at Scrapology

We are scraplifting our very own design team member LINDA this month by creating a page using many different mediums together on one layout.
 I REALLY enjoyed playing with this page and adding all the various layers of paint, mists, webbing spray etc

 We started off with a 12 x 12" peice of greyboard, which was painted with Gesso.

 

 I then used a harlequin mask and some Sparkle Medium in Turquoise ( thanks Linda)......
and then just went wild with Cosmic Shimmer Sprays, some sprayed, some dribbled....silver webbing spray, large chuck glitter flakes, sequins, crystals, blossoms, buttons and headed pins. I also added some denim and organza scraps.....gosh I DID enjoy all the mess and sparkle.....and discovered in the process of creating this peice....that a little really DOES go a long way.....a LONG LONG way....but it doesn;t matter does it....because everyone likes a bit of sparkle in their lives ;)


The photo is of my 2 gorgeous girls, taken in the springtime in 2011, at Abbots Wood, when we were out on a walk looking at the Bluebells.


  If you pop over to Scrapology you can see all the beautiful designs that the DT came up with, they truly are stunning.....and each so very different! We would LOVE to see you enter this months challenge....you have plenty of time to join in the fun and get messy/sparkly/inky/shimmery :D. Warmest wishes ANita xx
