Something New..

So I said I would return with a little news and here you go take a look at this ....

just one of the many new gorgeous little embellishments from the new company I have been invited to design for - Green Tara  and to kick things off to launch the new blog :) they are running a competion and really what a great way to start spring - you have now till the 30th Sept to create a layout, OR a card OR even a off the page project. just has long as it has Green Tara's products on the design. It can be flowers, string, ribbon, silver sprays or even Green Tara's mulberry paper... but it has to have Green Tara products incorporated in the design and don't forget to leave a comment and let us know what you think. Just go to the Green Tara Blog and check all the details out over there!

I did this LO for Scrap within Reach and you can see the gorgeous new embellies from Green Tara on this LO too. I've used papers from the Carnival Ride range.  The good news is that they are also having a sketch contest on there blog - so  below is my take on the sketch go over to there blog to find out all the details HERE -  Elly is just totally in her own world groovin along here - so cute...

 and for some close ups..

 

So I hope every one is having a fantastic weekend - it's raining here in Brisbane so it's nice to be inside creating away whilst the man of the house is having a nap - just as all good faathers should be doing on Fathers Day = relaxing!!

Scrap Within Reach with Scrapmatts..

A new project for Scrap within Reach combines with some scrapmatts, I've also used some mesh from Green Tara which totally rocks and comes in a million colours and while I was at the show I found these awsome gelly roller pens that instantly change raw chipboard into sparkling beauties in the matter of minutes without all the fuss - and you can grt these from Scrapmatts too..

    

here you can see some close up's of the scrapmatts chipboard

  

  

  

and looking closly you can see the white mesh, all the roses also are from green tara - they are so cute and affordable!

  

Well it's been a busy few weeks here and this is why...

  

Kye has a broken his leg..poor darlin, broke both bones in his leg and is stuck with this very colourful cast for 6 weeks - 4 to go...but if you think that slows him down - well it does but he still is determined to play in the dirt! - Hope you are having a great weekend!

Summer Mini Book..

Here is a Mini Book I created using Scrap within Reach Industrial Line which I have had fun playing with this month I carried the theme across from my peace dude LO and put a Summer vacation  spin on it.. I love the colours in this line , I never realised how much I am loving yellow right now - maybe because it's the middle of winter and I miss the warmth and sunshine..

    

You can pop over to the Scrap within Reach blog and check out some of the other Summer themed  Mimi books and Layouts on the blog, I also want to share this LO I did last month using the Carnival Ride Collection...

Fish Face - well I know it's not flattering but it's kinda cute any way this is our Fathers Day last year we went to an eco freindly fishing lake and it was fun and all the fish get thrown back - I think that's my favourite part..

     

and for some close - ups..

  

    

 

That's all for now!
