true love (:

this layout was done for my parents 23rd wedding anniversary!

nic and i dug out my mum's wedding album and grab some photos for scrapping..

i picked this photo cos its not the usual posed photo and it looks totally sweet!

this time i started with the determination to use as many of my scrap accessories as possible, in hopes of making sure it wont be flat!

i used lace, a doiley, pearls, rub-ons, studs, buttons, mambly screen prints layered on patterned papers, cut out flowers and plenty of 3d dots!

i love the vintage-y look! (:

i'm so going for jessy's vintage class (:

getting inspiration

i was really running out of ideas so i decided to go to www.scrapbook.com to get some inspiration!

i found some amazing layouts there and one in particular caught my attention..i changed the colour schemes but went along with the polka dot paper, scalloped edge on its side and the ribbon at the top..

my first slightly less flat layout! finally..

i love the black cursive thickers! (:

fate of our dining table

so this is what has happened to our house so far!

this used to be our dining table, which is now divided into 3 scrap workspaces, and the closest one is mine..

my work area and my scrapping stuff..

our island which has been converted into the tool table for our zutter, slice, big shot and heat gun..

i love my scrap stash! (:

3d butterflies!

here are a couple more layouts i did, but i dont remember when i did them..

the sand one was done on my baby photos, but turned out very flat again!

so in the next layout, i decided to steal my mum's idea (hey, at least i'm giving her credit here) of using the martha stewart butterfly punch and decorating the middle with stickles glitter and popping them up with 3d dots..thanks mum! (:

i used stick on pearls and cursive writing stamps on a piece of paper that i hand ripped..

i love the 3d butterflies! (:

first solo layout!

well, this was my first solo layout and i decided to do one on my 21st birthday party, which was a joint party with nic for her 16th birthday..

two big birthdays at once! (:

a very flat layout using just ribbons, pearls, couple of chipboard stickers and layers of paper and a tiny mambly screen print!

i love mambly screen prints (:

hopefully i'll learn to make my layouts a little more 3d! i'm still in awe at the layouts i saw at papier..how do they do that?

it really amazes me how scrappers come up with their ideas, but i hope to get there someday! (:
