Imaginarium Designs January Projects...

Busy! Busy! Busy! 

I've been scrapping like crazy in between family holidays in Robe and the Country Swimming Championships in Mt Gambier. I found just enough time to create a layout and a mini canvas as part of my January Design Team projects for Imaginarium Designs. I'll be creating and sharing one more project towards the end of the month.

My first project is a mini steampunk canvas that I have created to hang in my room. I wanted something a little different, but something that also represented my style, and this is the end result. I am totally in love with it, and no, my daughter will not be getting it, no matter how much she begs. ;-)

Yes, in my usual style I have added glitter and sparkle. How could I not? 

My second project is a layout I created with photos I took, while on our family summer holiday down in Robe. Our family seriously had the most wonderful and relaxed time. 

I've used Webster's Pages Beautiful Chic paper range for this creation. 

Thanks for stopping by and joining me. If you would like to see more photos or the product and technique details, please visit the Imaginarium Designs blog. 
I'll be back sometime later next week after I have stopped travelling all over the state with my family (I am currently in Mt Gambier). :)
Cheers and hugs, xxx

Tick! Tock! Tick! Tock!

I have a very special treat for you today. :) Today, I am sharing an altered clock and a love tag that I have created with Webster's Pages Strawberry Fields and Imaginarium Designs chipboard. 

I found this alarm clock in Kmart for $7 and decided it was a bargain that couldn't be passed up. So it came home with me, and I decided to go all out with the feminine, flowery, pretty artwork. And yes, it does work - this clock will be a beautiful addition to my bedroom. Can you imagine waking up to this every morning? I think it just might make my days a little brighter. :)

To start with, I pulled the whole clock apart to decorate the centre, and add all the rhinestones and fussy cutting. Surprisingly, it wasn't as difficult as I thought. 

I was worried that a black clock might be too "harsh" for such a soft and pretty paper collection, but I was wrong - it contrasts very beautifully with the papers and colours. 

It's funny, I always thought I would end up using the Prima white sequin vine on a Christmas or winter project - but no, it was a perfect match for this altered piece. And of course I couldn't resist adding a Prima resin bird - it was just too cute!

 And what did I do with all my leftover fussy cutting pieces from the clock? Why, I created a tag of course. I love getting the most out of my papers :) 

Now, if you would like to see a few more photos, or get more details on the products I used, please visit the Imaginarium Designs blog. 

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you are having an awesome week! Cheers and big hugs, xxx
