Don't blink, Christmas will here

Hi, Fi here today sharing with you some Christmas Cards and a Bauble.  I know it seems a little early, however I seem to always leave it so late that I never get them sent,  no excuse now!

First up I've decorated one of the larger chipboard baubles., along with words and the tiny little stars.

Love the cute little embossed Christmas tags


On this one I've used the Holly along with the Merry Christmas chip boards.



And lastly I finished this card with one of the lovely little Christmas tree chip boards.

Here are just some of the products I have used.  

All products can be found over at http://papertoleaustralia.com/search/?q=Christmas+words

Thanks for stopping by,

Hope I've inspired you to create some lovely cards this year for Christmas.

Journal Art & Beautiful Moments

Hello All

Welcome to my September DT post Journal Art & Beautiful Moments

This month I wanted to share with you some Journal Art using chipboard and stencils from Scrapmatts

  

For this page I have coloured it using Dylusions Sprays

The small hearts have been coloured with Alcohol markers from Kaszazz

Smile with Rikki Graziani

Good morning how are you? Rikki here today with some new layouts for course featuring the awesome Scrapmatts Chipboard. I have been busy working away and I cant believe we are in September already !!!! 

A handy tip when you have frames that you want to show two sides of, just cut them in half that way they extend around the photo your working with...

CB4069 Ornate Frames 26

CB6117 Assorted Words 30

And now for something a little bit more rustic.....

CB5124 Hexagon Mesh 03

CB1240 Scrap Words 26

So till next time have a Creative Day.

September with Lisette

 Hi everyone, I know we always say it but boy its busy in my house at the moment.

We had the end of the netball season with the grand final last weekend - unfortunately DD's team lost. I am on the executive of the association so this is a very big time of year for us.

This Friday night we have having her 21st at home.  I almost forgot about my post!

Have just put a couple of slices in the oven, so time to sit down and let you know what I have been creating.  I know that this time of year is really busy for me so I have prepared some layouts earlier!! (always wanted to say that)

The theme for 123 Challenge this month is A sketch, words - Love Always and 3 colours - Denim, Sky Blue & Sand.  Here is my layout -

I love the simplicity of this layout, and I haven't used a stencil as a background!

Products used:-













CB5142 Retrosquares 02








CB1159 Hearts 05


CB6116 Assorted Words 29


CB6095 Assorted Words 18

This was my DT layout for the August 123 Challenge.

I have used









CB1209 Scrap Words 12


CB6105 Assorted Words 23


CB5123 Chains 01


CB4060 Ornate Frames 16 - I have used the horizontal pieces as well as the negative from the inner circle.

Hope you have enjoyed my layouts and they have inspired you.

I did get the slices out of the oven in the middle of this post.

I think I need to do some more scrapping!!!

Until October

September with Helen

Hello and welcome back to Scrapmatts.

It's Helen with you today.

First I'm sharing a layout about a newborn baby meeting her Daddy.

The photo was slightly out of focus, but too precious to discard, so I added a watercolour filter, to blend in with the ombre background paper.
All the papers are from the  Kaisercraft collection, "Indigo Blue." 

The flair is from Studio Fourteen 40.
The puffy clouds is from Amy Tangerine "Cute overload".

I'm not sure where I got the spotty flair, apart from the bottom of my stash, maybe G45?
I left all the chipboard bare apart from the heart which I wet embossed with 
Stampendous "aged Taupe."

Scrapmatts products used:-
CB1229 Chains 02
CB1071 Hearts
CB5142 Retro Squares
CB6112 Scrap words 31
Heart Stencil

I based my layout on a sketch by Laura Whitaker.

Next up is an older photo from a Christmas 2014.

Still stash busting, I've used scraps of older papers to make the red and patterned trees;
then combined them with a new Kaisercraft Christmas collection "Letters to Santa",

for the green tree and green mat.  I think that the gorgeous
 Scrapmatts products have added a touch of festivity and sparkle.

I used various water colours and Tim Holtz Oxides to paint the Holly leaves.

The Believe title, the Frame and the stencilling was done with Nuvo Mousse. 

Scrapmatts products used:-
CB5163 Holly leaves Holly 04
CB 6111 Assorted Words 27
CB6093 Ornate Frames
ST 1037 Bling
ST5041 Stars
