The Colour Room Palette #4

Have you seen this fabulous new challenge blog? It is called The Colur Room
they have a gorgeous new palette of colours every Friday this is #4, so this week I had a little bit more time for free scrapping so I decided to play along. This is what I came up with, I really struggled with not putting much on the page it still feels kind of bear to me, so it could end up with something else on it yet.

This photo is a photo I wnated to take myself but it is a bit hard to take the photo when I wanted my own hands in the photo, so I enlisted the help from my brother and told him where to stand and what I wanted exactly and how to use my camera and hey presto! I love what he ended up with. Another of the ever building mountains of photo that I just have to scrap because I love the photo.Here is a little more detailed photo.

Well I'm off I want to give a few other challenges a go seen as I don't get to do them very often. My help my mojo come back a bit too.

Thanks for stopping by and for all of your comments.

Until next time take care.

This month's Sketch Challenge at Ideal Papercraft.

This month I got to set the sketch challenge over at Ideal Papercraft (formerly known as The Scrapbook Establishment) I decided that I wanted to do a sketch to use up all of the excess of scrap pieces of paper that we all have left over after every layout that we do. For this whole page I have only used scraps I didn't once use a new sheet of 12x12 patterened paper (apart from the cardstock of course!) This the sketch I came up with..... And here is my example..........................

I also used lots of the left overs of embellishments I have everywhere, I kind of saw it as a recycling page, to use up some of my mountains of leftovers I have.

Here are some more detailed photos for you.... The doilies I have recycled from old vintage doilies I have collected same as the doilie trim at the bottom of the photo.

Well thanks for stopping by and thanks for all of your comments I love to read them so keep them coming. I do have some other scrapping stuff I have done but at the moment I am unable to share them.

Well until next time Take Care.

Who likes a giveaway????

I have decided to open up an Etsy store, so I have been busy the past few days sewing these up. So to celebrate this I am going to be giving one of these beauties away to one of my lucky blog readers.I will give you the details of how you could win one of these later on in the week once I have them all made so you will have to stay tuned.(It won't be hard!)
What do you think of them so far? I personally want to keep one of each for myself. Have only done up a few different ones for the moment, just to see how they sell. If they are successful then of course I will make up some new ones. I have decided that I am only going to be making a few of each combo, that way they will be even more unquie.
In this first photo the 2 on the bottom left aren't quite finished just yet they need their flowers and buttons attached to them, but I put them in the photo so you all got the idea of the colours I have done so far.

This next photo are of the other combos I have made, I just have to finish sewing them up and adding the pretties onto them and they will be ready to sell . But once again it is to give you an idea of the combos that will be for sale.Ok and finally I will share one of the pages I have been promising, the other 2 still haven't been photographed yet. This page is another kit for Fancy That Scrapbooking

it will be avaiable very soon in store, so hurry in as there is only limited numbers.
Well that is for me at the minute. Will try to take some photos of those other 2 pages to share. And don't forget to keep tuned to see how you can own one of my very own handmade camera strap covers.

Until next time Take Care.xx

Who loves this as much as do?????

I decided to get creative yesterday and make myself a camera strap cover, and now I'm in love and want to make all diffent ones now. I am considering starting an Etsy store and making them to sell what do you think??? I would LOVE some feedback from you all. I would probably be charging around $10 - $20 mark for them depending on what is on them, what colours would you like to see?? I think my next one is going to bright and maybe some embroidery, the possibilities are endless.
Well thanks for looking at my blog and I would really LOVE some feedback on this it would be greatly appreciated.
Will be back later on with those pages I said I had to share, as long as I photograph them today that is!
Well until next time take care!

PS. That wasn't my big news either, I still can't reveal that just yet! Still a little more to organise for that!
