Tattered Angels DT call!

I actually gave this a go this year, with some wonderful encouragement ;) ...it would have been a 'dream come true' to get in, but...it gives me something to try out for again next year ;)
I am however, super excited for my gorgeous friend Louise, who did make the team! Woohoo!!! Personally I've always called her the 'Queen of Glimmer mist' & couldn't be happier for her! Tattered Angels & Lou are a perfect match :)

As well as glimmer mist & glaze...I had fun with the masks & texture paint here on this mini canvas.



Again with the texture paint, been wanting to do this for a while...lots of messy fun!





Thanks for stopping by & thank you for your lovely comments :) I really do appreciate them x

Mid-month update...

Seriously...where has this month gone!!! I'm feeling like I'm on the fast-track to Christmas & desperate for a little inner peace!
Something that does give me some of that inner peace is playing with my glimmer mist & Crafters templates :) Hehe also think I've mastered that lovely splatter here ;) I haven't been getting far enough away from my work...got some not so good splatters & some brilliant ones here! Haha the things that excite a girl!!! ;)



This is our new bathroom, something else that excites me at the moment...LOL though it created such a different feeling only a week ago ;) but I'm a huge believer...if you've got nothing nice to say, don't say it at all!!! Haha after 3 weeks without a bathroom, it's such a relief & pleasure to have this & we are all certainly enjoying it! The only issue is, everyone loves the shower so much I can't get them out...including moi! :) We are still waiting on the glass shower screen & then it's done.

Another retreat layout...

I was in need of some stress relief today...so I took some 'time out' to finish this layout I had started at retreat the previous weekend. This is a bit of a sentimental fav for me :) though I struggled to colour match with that dress!!! LOL it was a favourite at the time...haha thankfully taste does change & so does fashion ;)



Thanks for stopping by & a huge thank you for all your lovely comments! It really does mean a lot to me...& puts a big smile on my face! x

SFS Retreat!

Last weekend I was lucky enough to escape reality & have some fun @ the SFS Retreat! Peta looked after us so well & all the girls were really lovely & fun, making it a brilliant weekend. One can never complain about fab food, lots of laughs & guilt free scrapping...hehe certainly not me!!!
This is some of what I did over the weekend.
'Guitar Hero' is probably one of my fav's, mainly because of the intensity of my boys face while playing the guitar...I love it!

I had actually done the misting for this one prior to retreat, just didn't get to finish it at the time.


My new Crafters Workshop template...hehe when you look at all my retreat layouts, you notice a bit of a theme happening with the background ;) I certainly made use of it this weekend!



This was a sketch designed by Peta.



The following two layouts were 'blind scrapping' set by Peta...LOL I still find blind scrapping sooo out of my comfort zone, but they were certainly a lot of fun!




Thanks for stopping by & a huge thank you for all your lovely comments :) I really do appreciate that you take the time to leave me a message x


Happy scrapping!
