Layout - Turning 5

Hi Everyone, Today I wanted to share with you a double layout done for my daughter's 5th birthday.The theme was Fairy Princesses (of course).

 The first page.....

I have used the gorgeous Kaiser collection “La-Di-Da” for these pages as the bold colours suited my daughter’s party dress perfectly.

This precious sentiment is a rub-on from the Kaiser “Sugar and Spice” set, and is perfect for this layout.

These gorgeous flowers were made using the 2cm paper flowers. I used 7 flowers (one green and 3 in red and white). They were then layered, a hole pierced in the middle, and attached together with a small brad. I then started with the top flower and scrunched it up in the middle. Taking one layer at a time, they were all scrunched around the first, then spread out as much as required. Glitter was added to the edges.

The heading was cut from one of the matching sheets, and the letters were welded together with the Gypsy. It was then heat embossed with clear powder to make it stand out. I also used diamond glitter on the number 5 (as all little girls love their glitter).

Using the matching 6” Paper Pad, I chose coordinating patterns, cut in differing sizes and shapes, to matt the photograph and embellishments.

The second page.

The glittered flowers are cut from a page in the 6” Paper Pad, and the gorgeous tag on this page is one of the punch-outs in the back. (I love these Paper Pads – they are so versatile).

Thought you might also like to see a photo of the cake.

I have another OTP project I am working on - so check back soon for details.

Till next time,
Luv, Tereesa.

Layout - First for Josh

Hi Everyone, Isn't this Blog Hop fun. Hope you are all checking in each day with Scrappy-Go-Lucky to pick up the daily clue and the next stop on our "Round The World" trip.

To follow on with Joshua's 16th Birthday recently, I thought this layout summed up this exciting time in his life perfectly (exciting for him - scary for us).

Each letter is cut and shadowed, and highlighted using glossy accents.

Josh loves red, and being a teenage boy, doesn't want anything too fancy. The papers are Kaiser's On The Dot, so I continued with this theme.

Hope you like it.

Till next time,

Luv, Tereesa.

Lilac Photo Box

Hi Everyone. I was having a look through some photos today, and found these of a photo box I made my Mother-In-Law for Christmas. It is a Kaisercraft OTP project, and I have used their Lilac Avenue Papers. (I loved this so much I almost didn't give it to her).

I used coordinating papers on each side and added some rub-ons. You can't see in the photos, but each dot on each of the flowers is covered in Crystalina Kindyglitz.

I placed some acetate in front of the photos to keep them dust-free.

Dividers inside the box for easy sorting.

I made these roses in different sizes to form a small bouquet on top of the box.

The leaves are made from a 5-petal flower cut that I cut into 4.

My MIL loved it, is putting it to good use, and has promised to leave it to me in her will LOL.

We have a very exciting week planned at Scrappy-Go-Lucky starting Monday - so make sure you check it out. Here is a sneak peak of what I am working on.

To finish up - you all know that I loooove pink. I noticed these pretty clouds this afternoon and just had to take a photo (although by the time I grabbed my camera, most of them had gone).

Have a great week.
Luv, Tereesa.
