Layout Tag With Noel Mignon...

A couple of times a year, I play the Layout Tag game over at Noel Mignon's. Love, love, love this challenge. Anyway, here's the latest layout I have created for the Tag Layout challenge.

Titled: In This Life. Created using "The Bee's Knees" kit from Noel Mignon. I can't wait for the next game to begin...(-:

Mixed Media, Here I Come!!!!

OMG! OMG! OMG! I'm so excited!!!! I just finished my first ever canvas. *Insert happy dance here*. This one is for my mother's birthday. I decided it was the right thing for her to have the honour of my first canvas.

Here's a close up of the butterflies, bling, and dress form. Yes, in my true fashion, I have added bling to my canvas. Yes, those are real paper ruffles on the skirt (I won't mention how frustrating and difficult that part was, lol!).

Here's my little quote. For the life of me, I can't remember where I saw or heard this quote. I googled it, but nothing came up.

So, what do you think? I would be thrilled for some feedback, so if you would be kind enough to leave a comment, I would be truly appreciative. I need to know if this is an avenue worth persuing. But if it doesn't inspire anyone creatively, then I might have to go find something else to do. (-:

This Is For Him...

This is for my husband, and their daddy, for Father's Day. Need I say anymore? (-: I created this layout with the sketch for the Helmar September Sketch Challenge. This amazing sketch was created by our very own Lydell Quinn. Make sure you pop over and check it out, and see what amazing inpiration the design team came up with.
Lots of circles, lots of chipboard, lots of layers.
I absolutely LOVE this colour palette. I need to do more like this.

Scrapbook Kits September Challenges...

Finally, I can reveal the new challenge ideas over at Scrapbook Kits. Instead of two sketch challenges each month (one on the 1st of the month, and one on the 15th of the month), we are now having two challenges released on the 1st of every month.

The first challenge is a sketch challenge. And this sketch was created by yours truly!!! (-: Isn't it a fun sketch? The design team over at Scrapbook Kits have had a blast with it. You can see all their inspirational layouts here. I would love, love, love to see what you could do with this sketch? If you want to play, you have until the end of September to submit your layout.

And the second challenge is an inspirational challenge. I have an addiction to Pinterest, so I thought once a month, I can share a favourite image that I have found. The Scrapbook Kits design team blew me away with their interpretations. Want to see what they did? Just click here. And if this picture inspires you, and you want to play, please submit your entry by the end of September. Right, now it's time to play...(-:
