Kaiser Curiosity

I created these layouts for Scrapbook Fantasies using the Kaiser Curiosity range. 

This first layout is from Katrina's Pre-Prom photoshoot, when we all had portraits taken with our special girl.  Naomi-Jon was over-the-moon about being included in this special occasion.

This second layout is of Mikayla, our girl Saturday at Scrapbook Fantasies.

Kaiser Take Note

I have been doing a bit of creating with the new Kaiser Take Note range, that is selling very fast in at Scrapbook Fantasies.  I enjoyed both the colours and the style of this versatile range. 

My daughter, Alicia coloured the patterned paper I used to cut-out the leaves and swirls using Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Vintage Photo), a foam applicator and a sheet of specialty paper from the Take Note Paper Pad.

 

 

This second photograph features a very rare photograph of my Brother (Neville), although it is quite clear that he is telling the photographer off for taking his photograph at a moment when he can't cover his face - as is his usual response to a camera pointing in his direction.

 



Sketchbook365 Sketch - September 2013

I created this layout about Gladstone Harbour and what it means to me using the September Sketch from Sketchbook365.  I started my layout with a few swipes of Golden Light Molding Paste, followed by some blue mist.  I found the stickers in my stash, and it is anyones guess how many years they have been lurking in there.

Prima Build-a-Page - August 2013

I created this layout using the August Prima Build-a-Page Sketch, and a much simpler style than I am usually known for.  I have used one of the only School photographs that I have.

Prima Product Pick - August 2013

I have created this layout using the colours from the August Prima Product Pick.  I have used some photographs that Katrina took of their backyard visitors.

Creative Shoes

I created these two Embellished Shoes at the recent Scrapbook Fantasies Retreat.  They have since been in the window display at the store, and I have had many requests to put pictures of them up here on my blog.  They weren't particularly hard to create, however they did take a lot of time and as usual I made a lot of mess doing so.  I had a wonderful time and you may notice that they are both left shoes, as I am of course left handed.

Scrapbook Fantasies - Weekly Challenge #35/2013

Weekly Challenge #35/2013 at the Scrapbook Fantasies Blog is to create a layout using tags.  I have created another layout using the my scraps leftover from the layouts I created for Scrapbook Fantasies using the Kaiser Take Note range.

 

 

This layout is about the reversal of the traditional roles that goes on in my daughters household.  I am very proud of how she has taught all of her children to live independently and to not shy away from a little hard work.  Her children all pitch-in to keep their household moving along at a flying pace.  The roles are really reversed in these photographs if you consider that at 73 years of age these moments wouldn't have existed in my childhood days.

Scrapbook Fantasies - Weekly Challenge #34/2013

This layout is my interpretation of Weekly Challenge #34/2013 over at the Scrapbook Fantasies Blog.  The challenge is to use Circles in an interesting way, and I thought what was more interesting that a circular page, circular photographs, circular embellishments, journaling in circles and title letters in circles.

Scrapbook Fantasies - Weekly Challenge #33/2013

Weekly Challenge #33/2013 over at the Scrapbook Fantasies Blog is to create a layout using Black, White and Red.  I have used a funny photograph of Quentin and Noah waiting kind of patiently at a Wedding.

Scrapbook Fantasies - Weekly Scrapbook Challenge #32/2013

The challenge this week at the Scrapbook Fantasies Blog is to use Patterned Paper Only.
