Black machine stitching and some black and white twine from my stash were added and the sequins are from my kit- loving sequins right now!

Here is my second layout today, "Retro Raybans".....


I chose a pink and grey/silver colour scheme for this page about my favourite Rayban spectacle frames, and again used the 8.5"x11" format.




My little silver "NICE" sticker was backed with pink patterned paper to ensure the word stood out.




One of the papers featured cute little glasses on the tear-strip so I made good use of that and even had a little bit left to make some banner flags for my photo.




And of course the grey woodgrain Thickers were perfect for creating my title.

I'm having so much fun with this kit!

Hello Scrappy Canary Lovelies!

It's Karyn here today and I'm showing you Week 2 for my "Schultz Family 2015" Project Life Album.

All the goodies used on this page are from Scrappy Canary. In particular the January pocket life kit - Candy Heart and the January embellishment kit - Be Mine. The sequins are from the January Scrapbook Kit - Lots Of Love.
Here is a close up of the LHS. I've used all of the girly patterned papers from the kit on these pages. In fact I have used up ALL of the papers in the kit.
The sequin bows and the heart brads from the embellishment kit are perfect on this page!
I love to use extra strips/offcuts of paper in my layering and I made my own flair using some of the paper.

I watercoloured on a piece of white cardstock to add my own personal touch!
Here is a close up of the RHS.
Once again I made my own flair and I used some of the silver glitter stickers directly on my photos :) 

Happy Crafting 

Karyn xx

Like Michelle, I am getting down to the scraps of my January kit and I was keen to get them used up.  The February sketch was the perfect opportunity to put those little bits to good use and to challenge me with a sketch that is nothing like my usual style.

First I decided that an 8.5 x 11 layout was in order and since I had a lot of pink papers to use, I decided to use a photo of me. I also rotated the sketch anti-clockwise by 90 degrees to accommodate my portrait-oriented photo.

Rather than create a grid with space between the elements, I went with a looser style, overlapping my papers here and there.










I hope my interpretation of the February sketch inspires you to play along with us!

Happy scrapping,
Louise

Completely different to my normal layered up style, this time Ive gone for a more spread out page. Lots of different size strips and scraps make up the base, with the addition of a doily from stash, a tag stickers and embellishments from the embellishment kit.

All this layout is missing, is a little baggie of the curls I collected from the floor after chopping off all her dry ends. I might squeeze it in behind the main photo.. one day

The only thing I haven't done as usual is sew my thickers down. I might do this one day in the future to keep them in the same place. Ive found recently they aren't as sticky as they should be, as I've had to go back and fix older layouts.



There you have it. A layout completely different to my usual style but one that was totally fun to complete :)


You have until 01 March (11.55pm AEDT) to link up and a randomly drawn winner will receive a $10 gift voucher to spend in the the Scrappy Canary Store

Hi Scrappy Canaries - Lauren here! Happy Monday - I hope that you all have a great start to the week and that the sun is shining where you are!

Today I am showing you my latest Pocket Life Spread, using both the Be Mine Embellishment Kit and the Candy Hearts Pocket Life Kit.

In my last post I showed you four ways with the January Sketch. In that post I made two of my cards for this spread - my title card and a filler card. Here is the filler card that I created that I showed you last time:


However, when I started putting my spread together there was a bit too much pink on that side of the spread. So I decided to keep with the same theme of the sketch but change the backing paper to the light blue cameras - I also added the pink heart paper, an extra enamel dot. I also used the Elle's Studio Wednesday cork embellishment - as I used them across the spread.




So there you have it Canaries - my spread using the January kits! I can't wait to see what you all create with the kits! I will be back in two weeks - I'm in the midst of moving house so who knows what I will create!!!!! Have a great week! Lauren xx

I took one of the phrases from the Dear Lizzy pack and coloured it with two shades of Heidi Swapp Colour Shine- Gold and Pink and created an ombre effect.  I also coloured my "Love" wood veneer arrow with gold pigment ink.




Some machine stitching, bakers twine, ribbon and black ink splats were the final finishing touches.  

Up next is a page dedicated to my love of a good coffee and I took my cue from the coffee cup and used lots of blue/mint green elements from the kit.








Of course machine stitching and Heidi Swapp Colour Shine made an appearance and I used "Seafoam" Colour Shine to colour my "Hello" word. My "Love" wood veneer arrow was coloured with embossing powder.




I am having so much fun with this kit and I hope I've been able to inspire you to use yours :-)
