Forever Young

Morning everyone,

I hope you are enjoying your weekend? I dropped in this morning to share one more project I created using my pack this month 'BoHo Dreams' from Kaisercraft.

Wow I actually scrapped a photo of myself!! Something I do very rarely but like us all should do much more of. This paper with the Title 'Forever Young' has a bit of a pull at my heart as we lost someone special recently that will stay Forever Young because of that horrible illness Cancer. I also thought as I used this phot how nice it would be if we could just live life as if we were Forever Young. Just 'Imagine'.

I have added lots of texture by adding the new Colour Blast Mica powder 'Watermelon' to some Gesso and the Kaisercraft template. I sprayed some Sizzix die cuts with 'Coffee Kaisercraft Mist' and also added some Prima paint's.

Don't forget you still have until the 30th to get your entry into our challenge. Come on girls, you could win a great pack of goodies and be a GDT Member. 

Our Retreat is coming up soooo fast, don't forget to share the word as we still have room for anyone who would like to join us. Oct 7-9 2016. 

Happy Scrapping

Morning everyone,

I hope you are enjoying your weekend, they just go past way to quickly don't they.

I'm back to share some more projects I created using the Kaisercraft 'Boho Dreams' range.

This fun photo of my grandaughters went really well with the peach colours. I have used a new stencil from Dusty attic to create the circle backgrounds. I have added some art Alchemy acyrlic paint (turquoise) and I also added some new Colour Blast Mica powder (watermelon) to some gesso to give my background some texture. The title is a Dusty Attic word.

 With this page I have added some Dusty Attic chipboard which I painted with Colour Blast Mica Powder (cool mint) and some more art Alchemy paint( opal magic green-gold). I love the words printed on this range and this one is so true. My daughter and her best friend certainly do live, love, and take lots of pictures.

Well there you go, I hope you are creating something special this weekend. Don't forget to get your entry in our monthly challenge by the 30th August. It's so simple 'Free to be you'.

Also we still have a few spaces left for our October 'Spring Retreat' so if you were thinking about joining us for this fantastic weekend away give me a call on 0407058604 and book in now.

Happy Scrapping

August Challenge

Morning all and welcome to the August challenge,

Another month has past and we are getting busy here at Scrapbookit with all things Retreat. Class prep is under way, goody bags are being packed and we are getting excited.

Firstly lets go with the August challenge: 

Free to be you!! That's right this month we are having a free choice challenge so just go with what makes you happy. All entries accepted and close on August 30th 2016, you can email me on joanne@scrapbookit.com.au or load your entry via inlinkz in the sidebar.

This month I am creating with the Kaisercraft range 'BoHo Dreams', my daughter said to me "Mum, I neeeed a birthday present for my best friend" Me: "Yep sure, I'll make something", two days before said present needed to be done. "Mum have you made that Bday present yet?"

Well here is what I came up with:

 A Kaisercraft photo album, I have painted the frame with Colour Blast Paste, used papers and stickers from the BoHo Dreams range and hand made some flowers.

 The inside covers I painted with Dylusions Paint's.

 This is the back cover using paper from the range.

So in no time I am happy with what I made and the recipient just loved it, so all happy. 

I hope you can join us this month and show us your 'style'. I will be back soon to announce the winner of our July challenge, until then 

Happy Scrapping

Jo.
