Beauty is Everywhere to Love



Hello everyone. I was informed that I would be receiving the Webster Pages Warehouse sale box as a gift. I wanted to make sure that I used some of the items from the last warehouse sale, before the new box arrived. Hehe. So here it is, "Beauty is Everywhere to Love" is a quick and easy layout. The rulered paper is by My Minds Eye - Lost & Found Two Collections (Breeze "Everywhere" Mirrors Paper. That was a lot to write. I then used Webster Pages vellum a paper called "Your Life. Beautiful (item number US1827D) - Country Estate" to provide a smaller frame (notice I could not help tearing the velum).  


I used some Colobook design accents for the yellow coupon, achievement card, and vellum envelope. The roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The blue netting and red & white ribbon are from Webster Pages. The stick pin is by TiTi Designs (find her on YouTube as Missrafaelas). The lace is from Puerto Rico


I used a Recollections corner accent piece, Prima - Say it in Pearls, and My Minds Eye title.


The red-orange paper is by DCWV - Cafe Mediterranean and is accented by a retired Recollections felt iron work. 


The green paper is by My Minds Eye - Home Collection.



The word "Love" in black is from a old collection of EK Success stickers I had purchased in 2004.

Hope you like. 

Hugs, Kiki

Winsome: Survivor of Life


Winsome is a canvas layout about the most important woman in my life (mij moeder). I painted the canvas with Folk Art Metallic Paint - Peridot. I then whipped the excess paint off with a paper towel. This gave the background a kaki jean look. I placed 4 doilies on the canvas surface and sprayed the canvas with my Smootch Spritz - Black Velvet. Following this step I used my Martha Stewart - Glitter Finish to create a light bling look to the entire canvas surface. 


The words were highlighted with Tim Holtz - Worn Lipstick and I embossed with Ultra Embossing - Bronze. The letters are from the Recollections collection. The white collage sheet in the background is from Pink Paislee - London Market (Rare Finds and Curiosities).

\

The purple paper is from the Recollections 12x12 - Habitat collection. I tore the paper to 6.0 x 5.00 inches and I nicked the edges (front and back) with Tim Holtz - Antique Linen and Mustard seed.  The pink die cut circle is by Webster Pages. The 3 accent bling by Recollection. 


The tear drop bead are from .... it's a secret. I'm not telling. The flowers are from "I am Roses." The leaves and cream trim are from Recollections. By the way, Recollection products can be purchased at Michael's Craft Store. 


The Key is also from Michaels and was found in the $1.50 bin. The pom poms are from the Webster Pages - Petite Roses (Trendsetter). 


I then used wheat and pearl sprays to frame the left side of the canvas and draw your eyes up to the tittle. "Survivor of Life" was made using my Dymo caption maker. The Dymo retails for $19.99; however, can be purchased a Micheal's, Walmart, Joann, your local craft store, and online. 
P.S. Check Scrapbooking -Warehouse. Hehe. 

Enjoy and thanks for peaking.

Time of You & Me


 
Just a quick and easy layout for my anticipated reunion with my parents. Hurray! I used My Minds Eye paper for the entire layout. Amazing for me. 


The green torn paper is My Minds Eye - Lost & Found and the rest is My Minds Eye - Miss Caroline paper collection. The Chipboard banner is byMy Minds Eye - Follow Your Heart collection. The word "Time" is by EK Success. The metal bee accent was purchased on Ebay from China. The gray pearl and rhinestone accent is by Prima. I then used copper Stickles to accent empty areas.


I used my Dymo Label maker to spell "August, 2012 and of." The mushrooms are by the Shabby Chic Treasures by Prima. I used my Martha Stewart Monarch punch to cut the butterflies. The "cherish every moment transparency is from Making Memories. The "Flight and Air Mail" accent is from Girl Paperie Collection.


The "You & Me" title is from the Miss Caroline collection.


I accented the picture and note mat with a white doily. 


A Tim Holtz clip was placed on the cardboard mat to hold the paper where notes will go about the reunion. The card board mat was accented with antique white and gold metallic Folk Art Paint. Bakers Twin in Blue was added to accent future pictures and ran through a ribbon holder in silver. 


There is a secret tag for notes from Pink Paisley that slides in and out from behind the chipboard. I added a Petaloo - White Magnolia and Berries branch and added further accents with Prima - Northcountry  and Alla-Prima Roses. 

Thanks for peaking and I am happy to share with you. 

Hugs, Kiki

Story: Pappy and Me


This beautiful frames was made just in time for fathers day with the best daddy in the world in mind. The frame was purchased from Tuesday Morning. I painted the frame with Folk Art Metallic Paint in Green and Copper. I then sprinkled some Lindsey Stamp Gang powder and smooth spritz all over the frame. I then used the DCVW Tattered time paper to accent the frame and make such look old. 



The blue wheat and pearl sprays  draw you eye up to the measuring tape. Meanwhile, the flowers accent the crown and paper dominos. 


The word "Pappy" was made using letters from the Girl Paperie Kit. The "story" and metal frame comes from Tim Holtz. The "and me" was made using my Dymo label maker.



The bird, hidden in the right corner between the flowers, is also from the Tim Holtz alterations collection.


The bling pearl and crystal accent is from the Prima line. 


Hope you enjoy. Please feel free to comment or ask questions. 

Best, Kiki
