Lukes work

My son Luke is 10 and is very creative and artistic, he also enjoys scrapbooking and has asked that on a Friday he gets to showcase a piece of his work..so have decided that yes..Fridays is Lukes day!
Luke has chosen this layout today titled 'swingStar'!






Nice work Luke!

Teabag folding

I thought I'd share a card today, its a butterfly using a 'tea bag folding' technique.
Its a simple but effective technique and results in a classy looking butterfly card.

Hope you like!

Hooray!

I"ve finally done it!
Posted something hopefully worth seeing, Ive been creating a challenge layout recently and have stept straight out of my comfort zone! I was fortunate to be sent some freebies and decided to use some for the layout and then rrealised this shouted out "vintage", soo I faced my demons and went for it! The beautiful lady in my layout is my Nan whom turned 95! on Monday, so this one is for her..bless.

I made the rose out of chiffon ribbon, which I had to stiffen first and used glimmermist and a rub on to hand decorate my button. Tim Holtz distess cracle paint on my chipboard frame which holds my beautiful angel playing card..Im hoping Kim will think this layout fits the stuck sketches layout? we will see.

I hope you like!
