I'm behind the eight ball on this little blog, so thought I'd post a catch up on some earlier scraps from this year, before heading across the Pacific for 2 months while we toured through Canada and the US west coast..
here are my Citrus Twist Kits shares ..
I'l be back with some more CTK shares from last month soon, thanks for stopping by xx
My projects this month were created with the 'Beach Glass' main kit. For the first few pages I've used the cute Sprinkles kit as well.
I've used mixed media techniques here, starting with some white gesso behind the photo and extending the lime green frame with watercolours and distress stain.
April brings another stunning range of kits at Citrus Twist and I had the pleasure of working with the main and embellishment kits this month..
I've used the large die-cut letters and a mask + embellishment on this background..
the beautiful gold embossed vellum goes beautifully with blues and reds..
I'm currently enjoying these painted white frames on kraft.. it adds a contrast between the brights and neutrals..
Finally this one was based on the fun Sunday sketch..

Once again Studio 1440 is sponsoring the latest challenge at Kraft + and it's an amazing challenge this time!
Here's my take..
I've created a mixed media background using gesso, distress stains, white pen, graphite and stamping..
Studio Fourteen40 products used are: arrowhead wood veneer, journaling sheet, use your words and cute moustache flair
Check out the full challenge on the Kraft + blog, there's plenty of fabulous inspo to be had!

Playing catch up again, this time sharing some creations for Studio Fourteen40.. The snazzy foil flair on this page is hard to photograph but looks gorgeous IRL!
the next 2 pages were a bit of an experiment, I had a go at scrapping on A4 card, it was a challenge but I enjoyed it and found the second page easier than the first, so I think I'll persevere with this size from time to time..
I managed to photograph the foil flair this time!.. How cute is the little wood veneer heart? x
Happy Friday all..

It's my turn to host the fun 3 to inspire challenge over on the Citrus Twist Kits blog.
My 3 prompts are: 'Frame it, Ink it, Repeat Stamp it'
Here's my take using just the February Main Kit 'Stories'
Frames have been added from the dic-cut pack and a simple hand cut piece behind the photo from patterned paper
I've repeated the word 'dream' by inking just the once and repeating above then below the first stamped image
I hope you can join in, upload your layout or PL spread to the CTK gallery or Facebook Fan Page to win a small prize from the CTK store..
Happy Sunday!

I'm back with a few more pages using the gorgeous Jan Main 'Verona' + Sprinkles kits from Citrus Twist Kits.
I've used just the main kit on this page, beginning with a mixed media background using gesso, mists, inks and graphite
For this page, I've created a background with mists and distress stains, using a minimal colour scheme of blues and gold. I've used a single doily and cut a section from behind the photo adding it to the edge of the page. I've also added texture with a left over strip of deli paper used in this layout
Hope you're having a happy Sunday, I'm off to play with my February kit ;)

I'm delighted to be designing for Citrus Twist Kits once again and to be part of such a talented team from around the world! The January kits are just as beautiful as I remember, so easy to create with! Here's my first layout using both the main + sprinkles kits.. I've blogged the process on the CTK Blog here
Back with more CTK creations soon, Gx
Not much scrapping has been going on here lately..but this month I'm on the GDT for the Kraft+ October challenge.. along with the lovely Sandra Allan from Studio Fourteen40 and we're sharing posts using some gorgeous embellishments from S1440.. The Challenge this month is such a beautiful one!..check it out here.. it's all about feathers and natural elements and of course the classic kraft background..
Here's my take..
The gorgeous wood veneer feathers (original and #2) fit the criteria perfectly. After painting the tips with gesso, added a few silver birch twigs and loosely wrapped them all together in embroidery thread and securing the bundle with glue dots..
I’ve added select words from the Unknown Destination and She is Beautiful Use Your Words, The journal spot is from Always 2 little labelz collection
the ‘love you’ flair makes a perfect title for the layout and is available in Confetti set #7
and the challenge in more detail..

I'm a bit late posting this..but the good news is there's still time to enter the fun BINGO challenge over at Studio Fourteen40.. you have until then end of this month, and there's lots of options to choose from to create your page.. here's my take, I've gone with the line straight down the middle: glitter, flair, mists and stripes, along with a few extra prompts..
