Something Good Will Happen Today


Here's the last of my three layouts for my Pretty In Pink class at Made With Love, using Glitz Design's Pretty In Pink and French Kiss collections.




For this layout, I added some handmade flowers using the Floral paper from the French Kiss collection, to match the colour scheme of the layout. It gives a really nice "pop-up" effect to the layout.


And if you'll notice, the crystal flourish from Prima matches the colour scheme of the layout perfectly too!




Thanks so much for dropping by, and a big thank you to all who have attended my classes or bought my class kits at Made With Love! Looking forward to seeing you again soon! :)

Dream Big


Here's my DT layout for My Creative Sketches' October sketch. The photo is of my older DD, taken when she was a little girl, trying on her daddy's over-sized shirt and hat. Love that pic!


I used Kaisercraft's lovely Periwinkle collection here, embellished with some lace, Prima flowers, art tiles and blings.

Spread Your Wings & Soar


This is the second layout from my Pretty In Pink class at Made With Love, which ran over the last two months.


This layout is a good example of how the use of flowers, pearls, and some pretty edge punches can lend a beautifully dramatic look to a simple layout.
