Case File 222 - My Besties Smile

Hi Friends,

Writing this blog in extreme humidity 
here in Far North Queensland.
Not so fun scrapping in the tropics in the middle
of Summer

In saying that, I did enjoy
creating this layout for CSI: Color Stories Inspiration.
Here is my take on Case File 222.


All colors in the palette are included.

My evidence is:  Chevron (stenciling), Jewels,
Stamps and Fabric.

My Testimony is:  Choose a January Prompt.
I chose What am I grateful for?

Here is my journaling which is hidden behind
the photo mat.


Here are some close-ups:


Thanks to my lovely friend Beck Beattie
I got to play with the Tinby Designs - Color Crush.
The red in the background it Pomegranate.
They are amazing!!
You can purchase them here:


The blue in the background is the Shimmerz Vibez
- Cold as Ice.

The paint on the chipboard is a combination of the
new release Shimmerz Acri Tonez - Blue My Top
and 3 Sheets to the Wind.


The stamps I used on the layout are
from Unity Stamp Co - Vibes.

Here is the Case File:


Why not head on over and give it a try yourself?

Thanks so much for stopping by!! xx

My Sweet Life

Hey Friends,

Today I am sharing another layout
using Cocoa Vanilla Studios
Love Always Collection.

I think this might actually be my 
third layout using this collection.
There are so many things to play with.


This is a pic of myself and my boys.
LOVE this.
I don't usually find myself in pics as
I am usually the one taking the photos!

Here are some close-ups:


I loved these chipboard frames.




Thanks so much for stopping by!

Perfect Weekend

Hi There,

Here in Australia it is the school holidays and
I have had fun creating just for me.

So today I am sharing with you
a layout I created using Cocoa Vanilla Studio
Love Always Collection.


This layout features a photo of myself and
the lovely Stacey Young.

Our boys both played in the Paul Bowman Cup
in the same Competition Pool!
in the tent beside us!!

It was meant to be.


I love how pretty this collection is.
I created lots of layers.



Thanks so much for stopping by!
