Brothers & Best Friends

Hi again!

2 12×12’s in as many days!! Remarkable! Haha!

So, for this page I used a GIANT (A4, printed at home) photo and found inspiration here

Again, I used prompts from my little boxes and I pulled: 12×12 layout, Cameron collection (love, love, love this range but struggle to use it), chipboard, machine stitching, mists, ephemera pack and background stamping. 

I did “cheat” a little in that I used one of my Dusty Atic paints as s mist. Just squirted some into a bottle, added water and shook it up and voila!

Here are some close ups
So, that’s it for me for today!!

Thank you for taking the time to come and check out my page!

Have a fab day!

PL Week 11 and 12

Well, it’s been a little while since I have shared any of my PL with you guys =) I am no where near as far behind IRL as I am on my blog – slowly plugging away and changing and finding my style =)

But tonight I am here to share with you my week’s 11 and 12 =)


Here is Week 11 LHS


And the RHS


And both together



And here is my week 12 LHS


At the bottom right there is a couple of really cute tags that I received with the couple of happy mail parcels I received this week. It was pretty simple to create – just printed my collage and used one of my SU dies to cut the pretty shape off the end, attached the photo to a piece of backing card (on 3 sides) and there you go =)

Here is the RHS


Up the top in the middle there is a flip pocket. We welcomed a new (early!!) niece to our family in week 12 (the card I created is here) and I wanted to add both a 6×4 print of her sweet little face as well as a super cute story about my big boy Jacob. 

Here is the other side of the flip pocket


This insert was mostly a digi creation of mine but I added some felt pieces from {scrAp this!} and I am super happy with the way it turned out =) You probably can’t read what it says but after I told Jacob (he was a little over 3 at the time) that his cousins had a new baby sister he was very concerned that we were going to get rid of his baby and replace him with a new baby. I did comfort him but it was just so sweet the way he looked at me and was so genuinely concerned that we were just going to trade Hunter in for a new baby!

And last but not least here is both the left and right of my week 12



Hope you have enjoyed seeing my week’s 11 and 12. I WILL be back soon to share some more of my creations!! Thanks for stopping by =)

Rawr Means I Love You in Dinosaur

Hello there!!

Well I am actually here to share with you today a 12×12 layout I did! Without any help at all either!!

I started this on retreat in May and knew that it needed something else and Charms Creations Sketch Challenge for May gave me the last little bit of inspiration I needed! Head over to her FB page (here) – she makes the gorgeous felt embellies I have used (the star and the banner) and runs challenges every month.
Without further ado here is my page of my gorgeous big boy at a birthday party last year.


I have used a Bazzill Range called Dino-Mite (don’t you just LOVE it!!) and the chevrons have been cut from a co-ordinating piece of 12×12 from the EP Brothers Mini Theme. The star and the flag are both from Charms Creations and my title is actually from a Little Yellow Bicycle Range called Babysaurus. 

Here is a close up of the title – Jacob is ALWAYS roaring – to the point that after Hunter made his first words (mum-mum-mum then bub-bub-bub) ra-ra-ra qucickly followed!!


Needless to say, I am entering this page into this months sketch challenge – only my 2nd challenge ever!!

Thanks for stopping by!
