White with 1 April Challenge

another month almost over

White with one April Challenge -  this months colour is Jester Red.

Thanks very much for this great colour, i  love things bright, so this  one i found easy,  finding the time  though  was not so,  i had a different idea  totally when i saw the colour at the beginning of the month &   painted  some  paper with brick stencil,  but last night,  i felt ,bricks  on these to lovely ladies at a wedding did not seem  to go  well,  so out came stencils again ,

What haven't i used yet , that   i need to play with,  this stencil, did not come with brand name, but was still in the packet, so can not say who its from  I  did however but it at TJs Scrapping with Style in Logan .
ive also had heart templates from Fiskers, for about a year,  and ideas started to flow, once i placed them down on  the white card stock

 I have cut out the heart, after drying, with   the colour paste  this great  Colour Blast - colour paste  can be bought from  Tenisha  at Scrap Elegance at Stockleigh, qld.

i have used  : -  Colour Blast Colour Paste  fire engine red
   Red Self Adhesive stickers from  A Mother's Art, by  Kelly - Ann Oosterbeek.

A2Z Scraplets April Challenge

A2Z Scraplets April Challenge

Thanks   very much for this great challenge, i just started this one today, when  the mail arrived,
Thank you very much for my prize, i love it , in a few weeks time im going on an adventure,  for my family reunion up in hervey bay, so  will be able to use it then or in  another  months challenge, i also  love the chipboard with the roses,  they are just beautiful & can not wait to start painting it .
getting on to a layout.,

                      this afternoon, i decided that i would start some  layout, as i dont have many days at home this month, like 5 days,
so, with my white card stock, and my new Kaiser Bubble stencil, that i bought today, i have used , Dew Drop Brilliance  Sky Blue, Versa Colours  - Cyan &  Vera Colour Indigo Inks to rub over  sections of the stencil on to the page.
ive added  some Kaiser  droplets and sparklets and glossy accents over different parts of the  page

Technique on chipboard.
for my chipboard,  from A2Z scraplets,  my last  one i thought, til mail came, i have   first inked with  Dew Drop  Brilliance Cloud White,  and then over the top, i have added another size smaller bubble  stencil  &   I have used ,  Colour Blast-  Singing in the  Blues Colour Paste, then that was dry, it looked a  bit pale, so have then gone over it again with Colour Blast - Colour Paste Deep Water  with the big bubbles like on the page, i have then put glossy accents over the lot of  the dolphin &  the word Seaworld

I usually dont do fussy cutting,  but saw in my stash some dolphins on a paper,  it took me a while,  with  cutting off tails and fins and noses, cut  in the process,  to get the 5 dolphins   but its done, in future, just use the whole sheet i  think
.
I have also used ,some Kaiser  Sandy Toes  Collectibles on the layout

well,  on to start my next layout before tea. i have a sketch and colour palette ,

 looking forward   to  next month , keep up the good work,
thanks for stopping by,
Jacqui

Kraft Plus April Challenge

  Thanks Kraft plus for  great black and white challenge.

another month has started,  i only have 6 free days to get my challenges done this month,  so thought i would start off with Kraft plus,  some may miss out , but thats life, family come first.

 sometimes i think , im going to do a messy one this month, as others look great,  but somehow, when i get started, i dont like what i see, this happened today,  as soon as i  put the splatters on , then every thing went  a w o l,  Lol

anyway, turn paper over and start again,
I have stamped around the edge with Kaiser Me stamps, just love these  little x x x x  
i then proceeded to start with the gesso again,   ( which i had on the other side,)  but i thought, seeing as my dress only had small dots, i did not like the big dots that i had, what to use,  ? ? ?

 so putting away my  foam dots, i saw the perfect  solution, so i peeled  off  one side and presto,  small dots.  so have put  black and white gesso over the page.
  I have had these  creative memories black and white flowers for a while, now, and this year , is about getting to use all my  stash, thats been sitting for a while, and placed a black  bling at the top,
I have used  washi tape, another  thing just sitting in the cupboard,
the rock and roll party are  from the Craft  stall Blackboard stickers,   very appropriate for  my page
i have also added , black bling swirls,

 i had fun creating this layout,  hope you love it as much as me, until next month,

A2Z Scraplets Easter Challenge

 I had  the  A2Z chipboard  out, thinking of doing another  A2z Challenge,  but up to coming on net again to check out  the  colours again, i noticed, that you had a sketch up, looked easy, will give that a go,
i have used white card stock and have inked around with Dew Drop Brilliance Mediterranean blue.
I haven't measured  the  photos , just cut where i wanted to

 I have used ,Kaiser Sandy Toes, paper and  have  used the Kaiser trimmer with the  Wave  edger . I have also inked this

The View and The are from Paradiso Kaiser Papers
The chipboard is from A2Z Scraplets.
here i have inked it and then ran it though  my ebosser with Coulture Creations party time  embossing folder,  it has circles on , so can do for water feature as well
i have then put glossy accents over the lot when dry.
 had fun, another one done for march.
 the longest part was waiting for the glossy accents to dry.
i dont usually do  Easter challenges , but what  the heck,  anything different is as good as a holiday,  to get the adrillian rushing
hope you like it , until next time
have a wonderful Easter.

A2ZScrapletsScrapbookandCardChallenges

A2Z  Scraplets scrapbook and card Challenge ,  March, the start of a  new challenge , i think i like to try it, but before doing so and clicking that i will do, i best  see  what requirements do i need for this one,  umm
chipboards, well, i have plenty of them,  but A2Z chipboards,   i wonder, i might be out of the game, before i begin, i have a drawer full, plus 2  bags of chipboards,
lets see, yes, i have 2  off to a good start. lets  get photos, paper and get started. ( the other chipboard is a sword, why  i would buy that is beyond me, but something might eventuate   one day , maybe i had thoughts on a card,
I hope its alright , that i have some in my stash already, im going to the craft show soon, hoping  that a2z is there so i can buy more and create more challenges,

So with my chipboard, i have painted  2 of the sails with distress crackle paint - white picket fence,  by ranger and with the rest of the ship have used distress paint  - barn door, then added crackle accents  by ranger ( it does not show up as much on the red, as it did on the  white )  i have used, Kaiser E07 light  mahogany  pen for the masts,  and for the little flags at the top , i have used Liquid pearls. Baby Blue
The paper range is from Kaiser Sail Away.
the diamonds are from Close to my Heart
I have inked the string and glued to to the page, and have used a bit of gauze to place behind the ship.

hope you like it as much as i had fun getting out stuff that i havent used in a while, now back in cupboard.
 cheers

white with 1 march - Lavender herb

 my the months seem to be just flying by,

White with 1,  lavender Herb,

As soon as i saw  the colour, i knew the  photo i would use.
i have  been redoing my photos out of all those  old  photo books,
I have been thinking of doing the ones ,where i was a bridesmaid for my school friend, but  life sometimes gets in the way, but this week have planned to stay at  home and get some of my photos from the 70's done and scrapped.
                               I haven't titled it, as i thought i would put it on the start of the  pre wedding photos. when we went  to dinner for the pre wedding, as carol, did not want a big  bridal shower, and in my day, that just did not happen, it was just out to dinner on most occasions.

                         This afternoon  i started off with  Kaiser white card stock, then added Kaiser Airy Fairy  dotted paper. Then  with my  lucky 8 punch,  cut out another white Kaiser sheet and  have  dotted around the edge with Kaiser PP 02 pen
                    other items on my layout are
Martha Stewart  punches corner and  edge,
Portia - Rhinestones roll,  isn't it always the way when you want something ,you dont have any, so in my case, its swirls which i  love, so  not to be beaten, i have hand  glued them into place. one by one,  which took a while,  I have done this also  with the Couture Creations  white and lilac   pearl drops, as well.
The Butterflies, i have cut out using,  Kaszazz  punch and added the lilac  pearl drops
I have added some  small flowers from Vivalda Blossoms
also hand cut out flowers from Sospeso Transparente Flowers
       orchid  branch, series 2/14 little flowers and series  2/04 daisy and after cutting them all out,   got my candle and heated them and curled them, as well as my  glue gun and glued it all together  and added bling to it,
hope you love it as
much as i loved creating it ,  now while i have everything out, i might as well finish  another page of the wedding.
Thanks very much  for this lovely colour,  its so delicate and pretty.
