Well I had such a job picking the photos to use as there were so many taken over the Christmas period. I managed to wittle them down in the end although some lovely ones had to be left out :( I could have done a complete scrapbook just on her Christmas !! lol Anyway its a mix of techniques and its rather busy ... I hope its not too busy HO Ho HO ...
Cut out the card on SCAL2 and left a long tab at one side. Cut out a flower and a slit on the front of the card. The idea being that the tab will fit into the slit to close the card ha ! :) good eh ?
Put double sided card behind the flower cut out. Added gems to the petals, made the centre piece of the flower from scrap, made some other bits. Die cut my pages for inside (scalloped circle) and voila !
Very quick card. The silhouette was cut out on the Cricut. I put small peices of coloured paper behind to show off the windows and car headlights. Used blue paper for the background and smudged on some white ink for the clouds. Stamped a few messages. Put on a peel off around the edge of the paper.
Loved the paper so had to have it for a scrap page. Cut the heaven sent title out on cricut and distressed with distress inks and outlined with pro marker. Also used Cricut to cut out the dragon fly which I glossed all over with stickles. Stick on lettering has been used for the word 'bubbles'. Our Lilly filled in the rest of the page :)
Altered a pine frame surrounding a mirror by using alcohol inks on the wood. Cut out the hearts with white cs on Cricut and distressed with various distress inks to get depth and shading. Printed out some text on puter and cut out a scalloped heart shape with it on Cuttlebug embossed and distressed the edges. Cut out the words 'Totally You' on white cs back on the Cricut and again shaded with distress inks and glittered. Added some flowers.
