All About Me CJ Entry

Ok... so it's update time again... here is another CJ entry that I have completed early and quite pleased with... just hope the recipient is just as pleased!!!
I'm actually finding the CJ quite nerve wracking as I know the layouts aren't for my eyes only and just hope they are good enough!

This is quite busy for me as my usual style is clean and clear... but I actually like it and will hopefully make many more busy pages!

I've used my QuicKutz Emily Classic Alpha set which I have just purschased from a fellow UKSer... it's fantastic and I know I am going to be having lots of fun with it!
DCWV Quote Stickers... DCWV Summer Rub-On Stack... the Cancer & Capricorn stamps are from Stamps Away... I love all things mystical and to do with the Zodiac so have the full set of 12 signs!
The papers are Papermania 6x6 Inspirations... Cool Tones!

All About Me!!!

Favourite Colour CJ Entry!

I'm involved in a Newbie CJ... Rose Between Thorns... is our group name!

I've just completed the Favourite Colour CJ... I chose Chocolate & Lilac as I just love the combination of the my two favourite colours!

I used my QuicKutz Revolution to cut oll my shapes... the alphabet I think is Maggie Mini with Shadows... there is also the Orca, Dolphin, Bumble Bee, Ladybug, 2 different butterflies and the tag die! Not had so much fun using my QuicKutz dies in quite a while!
For the alpha & the two tags I used chocolate foam... i'd not used foam before and thought it gave the lovely texture of chocolate... just a shame it doesn't give the smell of it either! lol
The papers are the Colossal paper packs that I had bought by HisLordShip a couple of Christmas's ago... this is the first time i've used them!
I used my Sakura Chocolate pen to write on the Lilac tags... excuse my writing... I wanted to describe what I thought of the colours!

I'm quite pleased with this layout... turned out better than I had dreamed of... yes I dream of Scrapbooking!

The next one on my list is... All About Me... now I need to get my thinking cap on for that one!

Wedding Canvas Layout

OK... so here is a Wedding Canvas I did at the Leeds Paper Dolls 12hr Crop on 25Th August! It took me forever to cut the swirls out... but now it is all put together and stuck down I'm just not sure about it... I feel it's lacking something... or maybe it even needs restarting altogether!

What do you think???


As a complete beginner at all this... all comments and suggestions are really appreciated!

My First Layout!!!

Ok... so here it is... my very first blog entry and my very first Layout...

This is a picture of my niece the day she should have been born!

I'm doing an album as a gift for her mum as I know she will appreciate it!

Ok... so the scary first entry is written... now do I post it or not???
If I don't post it you'll not see my work and I won't know if it's any good... but if I do post it you can all tell me how rubbish or not it is... so that I can improve my layouts!

Ok... here goes... I'm hitting the Publish Post button... wish me luck! LOL
