The travel set....

I was extremely excited when the lovely Melinda emailed me a couple of months ago asking me to  be a Guest Designer for Imaginisce for November. I got sent lots of goodies including an i rock tool and the fabulous Bon Voyage collection of pattern papers and embellishments. I decided to use my goodies to create a Travel set for my sister who is holidaying overseas in  late December.

the snowman...

Who knew building a  snowman would be so hard!!!! Coming from two inexperienced Aussies this little guy was the best we could manage when we visited beautiful Lake Louiise in Canada for our honeymoon 6 years ago.
I have combined some Indie bloom and Nordic holiday papers and accessories from Basic Grey to complete my layout!

You still have one more day to be in the chance to win a spot in my friend Gails online class here.
Till next...

something new...

I was never one for making my own Christmas cards....who has the time!!!!! but when I saw the gorgeous Nordic Holiday line from Basic Grey I really wanted to make some.
The colours in the range are so varied I made two from each shade.

Before I go have you seen my friend Gail's new adventure into online classes. Here is  sneak peak of what you would be making she is even having a giveaway for a spot ....

lego love...

I have mentioned before about my eldest son's love for lego, my youngest is totally into daddy's old lego as well. I have used Get Picky's new sketch to complete my layout. I was inspired by the cluster of circles to cluster my photos.

I also based the colours on this months colour challenge at Core'dinations. I have used some yummy Tilly dot cardstock.

 Don't you love that awesome definition button from my friend Gail's etsy shop here.


Oh and before I go Core'dinations are having an awesome give away of the new Tim Holtz kraft Core cardstock, if you head on over here you may even win a signed packet of the kraft core from the man himself!
Till next time...

the bottles...

I keep finding more projects from my DT application for Basic Grey. I used some yummy Core'dinations Impressions  Basic Grey cardstock , buttons and canvas flowers to create my party bottles.

Till next time...

first love...

I have mentioned before about the sweet friendship between my eldest and his best friend Kate. They simply adore each other, he is so soft and tender towards her and misses her so much when he doesn't see her for a while.
I took advantage of the gorgeous Picadilly line from Basic Grey that is just hitting the stores now to create my layout. The colours and patterns are soft and feminine but not too much that you can't include them on a boys page

For my layout I used the 6x6 pack of pattern papers to  create my quilt like background...

Till next time...

he....

All this week there have been some fabulous Graphic 45 and Core'dinations projects on the Core'dinations blog. Today it was my turn to share a project. Now I really struggle with Graphic 45 papers, they are not my usual choice but I managed this fun layout about my eldest who has really LOVED his time at kindy this year!
I did a little sanding and distressing of the signature series Graphic 45 Core cardstock!

Oh and if you head on over to the Core'dinations blog there is a fab Graphic 45 Core give away going on.
Till next time!
