Scrapbooking | My Perfect Little Weirdo

Umm... he wanted to 'sit under you' and that's exactly what he did. And who was I to try and stop him!

Focusing on the layout rather than the oddity of the photos I have used the Love Lace mandala from Pretty My Page (Download here. Purchase as a pre-cut here.) cut on white and inkblended with some Distress Oxide inks. When I inkblend over a cut file I do it before I remove the cut from the mat. This way it is held in place and I'm not rubbing over thin delicate areas of card which would easily tear.

I piced a couple of papers to match the inks and added very simple layering behind each of the photos. I added my title and journalling in a block using word stickers and alphas interspersed with my handwritting.

He was moving my knees together so it blocked out the light (or to 'close the light' as he said) and these pudgy hands on my legs just looked so cute!

Seriously, I couldn't love this little one and his brother more if I tried.

Thanks for stopping by

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday ! As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off. Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made...

And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead. They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread. (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.) Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!! :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop . If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is Easter bunting! I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart. Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them. I embellished each flag with some beads... I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants. My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread. ...
