A bright funky boy's layout.............

Debscreations has monthly challenges set by 3 challenge chics. No prizes but really awesome challenge to try out. Winners will be picked by the challenge setter. Sometimes there is a RAK.

Here are the details of Vix's challenge:

Your LO and title must be based around a movie title!
You must
* use only one photo
* use at least 3 different pp
* use as much cardstock as you want
* use no more than 3 embellies!

Here is my take on the challenge.


My title is based on the Movie "pirates of the great salt lakes"
Photo is Sid exploring the salt in a salt lake near our town.
We in fact did bring home some salt.
It was awesome to see salt in so much quantities and also amazing to see plant life growing in the lake in spite of the salinity!!
The base is a cardstock by GCD studios designer card stock. I picked it from my LSS.
Loved the ink blue with a self designed grid.
Other papers I used was from Collage press Jackson Lodge collection--journaling card PP and other one, I think is from Prima Youth collection.
The three embellishment I have used are Kaiser craft star bling, Chipboard stars covered with Green card stock and kaiser craft rub ons. Alphas from Pink Paislee.
White dots by Kindy Glitz's white.

I love a little funky layout ones a while. Brightens up my day!
Hope you are having a lovely day.
Its HOT here. My DD is down with fever and bad cold.
Poor thing, she talks more when she is down with fever. Delirious!! sometimes!!
Bound indoors until evening. So chances of making another layout are high!!lol!!

Checkout my sketches blog some inspiration.
Have a great weekend.

A Pretty Pink layout!!!!

Hi Everybody,

Today is Friday and my day off but I was still engrossed in household chores!!!
Time just flew by and before I knew it was evening!!!
But I finally had the chance to visit my LSS.
She had some awesome The Little Yellow Bicycle papers.
They were pink valentine's paper line but it was a lovely pink.
Not baby pink, not flashy pink but a dusky pink.
I was smitten by the color and one particular paper was embossed. I dare not take it!!!
She also had some making Memories die cut papers. Picked up a few papers from her.
Some new stash is always inspiring.
At the same time all my photo from Snapfish arrived. Oo la la!! I sat down to make a layout.
The pink dotted paper is the nice velvety embossed paper. So nice to feel it.
Here is the result.

Papers used are from making Memories diecut paper from Love letter line,
The Little Yellow Bicycle embossed paper and 7 Gypsies.
Flowers are from Prima, Black bling flourishes are from Prima too.
Ribbon from American Craft, Cork Tag from Kmart.
Stamped image is from Bizzy Becs Stamps - Hippy Girl 'Jewels'.
Tim Holtz's distress inks and title diecut from my stash.

Here are some closeups:

Have a great day

Basic Grey Challenge #21

Its "Lets mix it up challenge at Basic Grey challenge blog this week. I always mix lines whatever the brand is. I actually get the feeling my layout resembles everyother layout if I use papers and embellishments from a single line. So I was thrilled but work and other commitments kept me busy until last night.

Here is my take on the challenge. I have used Basic Grey Granola, Recess and Stella Ruby papers in this card. Alphas from Pink Paislee.

Thanks for stopping by

Here it is .......

As promised in the past post, here is the layout I made for the Master Blaster challenge at Debscreations. It is s poppet challenge.Here are the details

To create a Layout using 1 or more Poppets to tell a story!!!

You must have Journaling on the Layout through the use of a Journaling Tag- giving a few details of your story- this could be a trip to the zoo, a wedding, a special gift etc!

You can use any Cardstock & or Patterned Papers you wish but your LO must contain some form of bright colours!.

At least 20% of the Layout must have 3D elements on it!

You can use any Embellies you wish, but you must include a pin & 1 paper clip!

At Least 1 of the Poppets Faces must be yours- no exceptions!

I was intrigued in the beginning. Sort of postponed it for a week pondering what to do.
But yesterday I had a whole day to me and I came up with this idea of doing what goes on in my mind everyday when I go to work!! Lol!!
Initially I wanted to do just the house but I got so engrossed in making the house then the trees, then the sun and suddenly I thought let me use my brayer to make the sky.
When I finished that, I wanted something different for the grass, so I came up with heat embossing for the grass to add a texture as the grass would have.
Then I raided my daughter's toys and found this dress of her polly pocket and nicked it.
Shhh!!!! don't tell her....
I use the top only and hand drew the hands and used the legs only of the Magnolia Tilda stamp and .... I just was into it the whole day that I did not realise that I missed lunch.
OH!! it was so much fun making it. Never forget it.
Felt like my inner child just came through cutting, inking, gluing...lol!!!
This layout will be my favorite. Love the outcome.

I just received more stamps I purchased. Can't wait to use it.
Will show you tomorrow a card I am going to make with it for Basic Grey challenge.

Have a great day
