National Scrapbook Day

May 23rd 2013

Over at the Gecko Galz Site this month we are celebrating "National Scrapbooking Day" by showing off our creations! I'm not into scrapbooking but made a couple of pages in a style that I felt was more "me" to celebrate the day - you can see list of supplies and details for my pages at the Gecko Galz Site along with the amazing creations on display so far from the rest of the talented DT!

Joyful!

May 23rd 2013

Finally got time to make my tag for May for Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of 2013 and as usual I've added my own twist with what I have on hand. The rub ons I used were from the cheap shop, I've used a gorgeous Bombshell Stamp Set "Rose's Portrait" - my favourite at the moment and other little bits & pieces from my stash. I'm actually really happy with how this has come out and LOL I'm still managing to get my tag done each month so that's an achievement!

It's Life Jim But Not as We Know It!

May 21st 2013

Time for a little reminder for our Movie Magic Monthly Challenge Blog - our theme for this month is "Star Wars vs Star Trek" - what a great theme with lots of possibilities for creating!!! As you can see I've made a Journal Page using a well know "Spock" quote from Star Trek along with some little one eyed monsters from Dilly Beans!! This page was so much fun to create!

I'm also entering my page in the current "Anything Goes" Challenge at the Dilly Beans Challenge Blog - LOL it's certainly "anything goes" on this planet!!!

I'm also entering this in the current Drunken Stampers "Star Wars/Space/Rockets/Flying Machines" Challenge as my page is certainly "out of this wrold" LOL!!

Felicity & Rhadel

May 20th 2013

Check out these 2 new designs from Angie at Angie Delarie Scrapbooking - the first is Felicity from the 50's and the second is Rhadel from the 20's - these were so amazing to create with - I love the "era's" these two gals are from! Make sure you check out the shop to grab these new designs! I can't wait to create some more things with these gals!

For my card using Felicity I used some great digital papers from Gecko Galz which were released this month - they are called "Dapper Dan" and although I have also made male themed cards with these papers I thought they were just perfect for this 50's style image! To lay out the card I used the current sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesdsay! I added some blue coloured highlights to the image to bring out the bit of pale blue in the background paper.

My second card with Rhadel I kept fairly simple with the embossed background and matching embossed border along with some black tulle which I gathered and the little yellow diamantis to add some bling! I love this image - very swish - looks like she is ready to "flap"!! I am entering Rhadel in the current Left of Centre Challenge - which has a Red/Black Theme - perfect!

I had a few scheduled posts whilst I was away and I see Blogger has been kind and they were posted here so that's a good thing! I will be catching up this weekend to see what everyone has been creating!

A reminder that your still have a few days to enter our "Show us the Future" Themed ATC Challenge at Wicked Wednesday!! For my ATC today I have used a great collage image from Gecko Galz and as you can see below I made it into card!
