Christmas Project

Hi everyone, it's Cindy here again to share with you another project, this time around a tiled front page for those Chrissy Albums

I created the tiles using chipboard covered in the Silver & Gold Bo Bunny Christmas range and for the base of the layout I used Co-ordinations Core Color Cardstocks and another of the papers from the gorgeous Silver & Gold Bo Bunny Christmas range.      

Of course you can get all of these great papers from Jo

I created the title using the Scrap FX title Spirit of  Christmas, and covered/coloured this with the  sparkle n soft shining emerald, to give it a velvety sparkle finish. I used the sparkly thickers for the remainder of the title.

The flowers are carefully separated Green Tara flowers, as there were only two green flowers in the pack, it's a great way to make them spread further and also to get different sizes for your projects. I brushed a small amount of Gold Glitzin Glamour glitter glue onto the flowers for a bit of sparkle.

 I created the rosettes using this gorgeous gathered gold metallic ribbon that Jo stocks.... great for creating rosette flowers, so quick and easily... teamed the ribbon up with some scraps of lace for the centres with a gold pearl brad.... and to create the rosette, I added a gold double ended tassel...

I hope you are all working on your December challenge projects, (you can find full details of the challenge here) I can't wait to see what you come up with...

I would like to wish you and your families a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Safe New Year.

Till next time

Happy Crafting

December Challenge

Hi it's Cindy here with you today to share with you my take on the December Page Challenge set by our guest designer, Amanda Francis (if you want to learn more about Amanda and the December Challenge click here) 

So here is what I came up with for the Challenge

So I made plenty of use with the spray portion of the challenge, using the Dylusion sprays, in postbox red and pure sunshine, continually layering up the colours until I got the look and depth I was happy with.

I sprayed the Dylusions over my background created on Kaiser cardstock with the Scrap FX Petal Pattern Stencil  Impasto and Gesso (the paint part of the challenge)...

 I painted the Scrap FX Christmas title red and the applied Sparkle n Soft (cherry sparkle), the photo doesn't do it justice... it doesn't show the texture and hints of glitter very well... it looks fantastic in real life....

 I made use of the two red flowers that came in the Green Tara pack Jo sent me.... I carefully pulled the flowers apart so that I had six flowers from the two... I used some red Kaiser paint to touch up the glue marks on the middle of the petals... then I used the dots from the DIY thickers pack as flower centers, I covered these with the Gold Glitzin Glamour glitter glue.... I also spread a little of the Glitzin Glamour onto the Flourish with a Bling Flourish, to give it a little bit of sparkle....

Well, I hope you've enjoyed my take on the challenge, and remember you can get all the products I have used from Scrapbookit...

You have until December 30th to email Jo at  joanne@scrapbookit.com.au with your challenge entry, I look forward to seeing your take on the challenge....

till next time

Happy Creating
