So i am late posting my bubbly post from wednesday as i am snowed under with my dissertation and it is just not going to plan. Icing on the cake was a corrupt word program that decided to firstly turn my diss file to chinese, then rotated everything landscape on a portrate page, dont ask me how as i didnt even know you could do that and then it turned all 3 back up files into a series of circles and squares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway back to this week. I made an acrylic album all about spring.
So my mum pre ordered the new Scrapbook Inspiration Ideas Book recently and it arrived yesterday. So imagine my surprise whilst flicking thru to find one of my old LO's actually published in the book. I was so made up. You can see it on page 97 i think it is, lol
Sorry Gem, in advance
Here it is in its glory
And i will leave you with a sneak peak from tomorrows Bubbly Scrumptious post.
Oh and speaking of Bubbly Scrumptious, have you seen thier DT Call. All the details can be found HERE
So this week i decided to make a LO using some gorgous Maya road chippie and acrylic. I didnt do a tutorial this week as unless you have that sassafras paper you wouldnt be able to repeat it. But the focus of the LO is the overlarge Apple painted with maya road mist in the middle. Its taken from one of the apple mini albums.
Hope it has inspired you to crack open the mini albums and see what you can come up with.
I have just stumbled across the chance to win the must have gadget for cake makers. Its the Cricut cake from prova craft and its too die for, believe me
And to be in with a chance of winning one, head on over to the cuttlebug challenge blog and follow the instructions.
So i am getting back into the swing of things after my crafty break. And its Wednesday so that means its another Bubbly scrumptious post.
This week i made a cute little vintage recipe album ready to fill with loverly scottish recipes. And as my new addition is going to be a fully fledged scottish kid, and not incomers as my boys have been called in the past, it will be a great little keepsake.
As promised i am back to post my projects for bubbly scrumptious and vanilla sugar.
Firstly i have a baby wall hanging using lots of maya road chipboard.
Next i have my vanilla sugar creating. The theme this month was bird houses or birds. I repurposed a garden hanging box for this project before altering it with metal distressing tools and alcohol inks.
I love my little picket fence, it took me an hour to painstakingly cut all the lttle pieces out, lol
So i was at a loose end yesterday and had a little catch up with my blog subscriptions. I noticed on Squiggles and giggles the monthly card sketch comp so i downloaded a digi stamp, cracked open my scrapbox and got the small collection of whisper pens i own out.
Here is what i created, dont laugh i am not a card maker anymore.
I have stuff from vanilla sugar and bubbly to upload but they all need resizing and i have no energy at the moment, i wonder why!
