Stick It Down | Little Rumblesaurus

Stick It Down are sponsored by Handipaper this month. I bought these cute dinos from them a few months back and this was the perfect opportunity to play...

Here's the sketch we are working to this month...

I cut the dinos on some striped papers from Pretty Little Studio. The stencil and stamp are from Skull and Cross Buns.

This was the layout of mistakes... I miss-stencilled, the washi tape holding the stencil tore the cardstock and I dropped an ink pad face down on the page! Everything is fixable in scrapping though. The title covered the stencilled oops; the washi covers the tear; the inky mess was torn off and led to the orange strip at the bottom which I ended up loving.

Googly eyes. Yep, we need to start a thing. Let's get googly eyes trending in scrapbooking!

I also have a second layout inspired by the sketch and using a Handipaper cut file (along with a border cut file that I made.)

I've used mainly my Quirky kit and old embellishments/stickers that I'm meant to be using up. I say meant to be as I seem to have stopped using things... I haven't bought more but it no longer seems to fit in the box! I swear they've multiplied when I wasn't watching!

I added a little bit of the packaging technique on the white 12x12 using three pastel shades of Shimmerz mist. This gave a little bit of contrast for the white flower diecuts to stand out against.

I added some teeny tiny heart shaped buttons. They make such a cute addition to the page.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you joining us over at Stick It Down this month.

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... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia . Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle. It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. 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 up in the corresponding g

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. At each stop on the hop there'll be a word to collect and a candy draw. I've got these

WOYWW & Card Deck Swap

First up is my desk ... Hmm. Perhaps the less said the better! I really should have a sort out but I fancy desking instead! Next I want to share my card deck swaps (deskers don't have to stay for this bit but I reckon you'd enjoy joining in with us, which is why I'm including it in this post) You can read about the swap here on Jessica's blog and sign up here . Basically, we take a deck of cards, add paint and/or paper, then add a positive sentiment to each card. Post them to Jessica who shuffles them and sends back 52 different cards from different artists (yes, you are an artist!) from all over the world. These few are ones I have picked out to display first. I'll swap them round after a few weeks. Do you like my domino pegs? :) Thanks for stopping by. I hope you'll at least consider joining us for the card swap - it's like a super sized ATC swap, and all WOYWW er's know they are fun! See you at your desk x
