Bowen lighthouse walk

Twice a year you can walk from the Mainland to the lighthouse at Bowen. This year three of us drove to Bowen to do the walk.
I used couture creations die for  the pelican, amd then some Elizabeth crafts dies for the crab, lots of art stones, and the  kaisercraft net die.
I used embossing powder on the seaweed amd coloured the pelican using copic markers,

Cards

A few cards I have made recently, the bottom one was in simply cards magazine, the roses on it were cut from spellbinder bitty blooms die set, the background is a stampin up set and the leaves are creative expressions die. The roses on the first one were cut from an altenew layering set roses, the trim s a Martha Stewart border punch called embroidery

 The middle one was stamped with a Simon says stamp stampset and coloured with faber Castell pencils, then fussy cut out thr bottom of it.

Rural fire brigade page

Carter had the rural fire brigade come to his day care centre and steve and I were in charters towers for the day. He loved it!

It was such a colourful day I used a cut file from silhouette and sprayed it with yellow and blue lindy sprays letting them mix into the green colour in places, I grabbed a piece of white paper and threw down some grey paint here and there attached the cut file and layered up some cardstock and ephemera. Sorry the photography is not straight on this piece, must have had a red wine before I took the photo of the page!

Colour bloom sprays and go for it!

I have all these sprays from colour bloom, Heidi swap, lindy stamp gang, delusions and perfect pearls and I really don’t use them enough! So I used the teal and the pink from colour bloom on this page, jsut went wild lol. Then a friend had these cut outs from a magazine that she didn’t want so I glued them all together to make the two die cut pieces behind the photos,  and found some old kaisercraft sticker sheets. I was determined to use some of my stash! I used a stamp set from Gabrielle pollaco, I love how the brick wall looks!

Cute cards.

I made these cards, the pink one for my granddaughters 5th birthday, she loved it. I used the rabbit from MFT snuggle bunnies
Amd the yellow one I used a film strip die, the best wishes is actually part of the Dies set, My best wishes for your birthday from couture creations.
And the farm animals are the stamp set  carnival cupcakes by mama elephant

Cut file from silhouette design store.

Once I cut it out I realised that I had the negative and thought, well why not? One for my wall and one for the book! Lol

And of course some ink and paint and layer layer layer.

Scrap the girls February 2019

I made all the pansies from a stampin up butterfly punch, so much fun! Then I tore some grey and some yellow paper strips, I used gansai tambi watercolour paints to do my ink splotches with a piece of plastic to smoosh it down, then I splattered the paint across the white. The butterflies were done with punches and I coloured them with cooic markers and used white pico on them
