Buzzworthy...

Hi everyone,

So glad its Friday...I hope to get some scrappin done over the weekend. Some "ME" time is needed.

I just wanted to share a page I've done using the "Cheerful bee" pack it got for Lincraft.

 

I've also embossed some cardstock with the textured plates and then inked over the top.

I hope you all have a great weekend doing something special.

Take care

Jacky
 

I'm feeling CHEERFUL!!!

Hi again...

I just had to pop in and show you something...before I started playing with it. I picked up some "Cheerful Bee" from Lincraft, which have just opened at Blacktown in Sydney. It's so nice to have a Lincraft locally.

Anyway, back to "Cheerful Bee' its a Heidi Grace line, and its so bright and happy. It just makes me all cheerful.LOL

 

I also picked up some clear stamps to. One set is "Cheerful bee" and the other is a "Valentine's day" set. I'm such a sucker for stamps these days.

But I think the best part about "Cheerful Bee" would have to be the back side of the papers. They are so great. I nearly forgot to mention that you get 2 sheets of each paper, so you can get heaps out of the pack of papers. 

 
 

We've got some fun coming up next month on the blog, Which I can't wait to use "Cheerful Bee" on.

Take care 

Jacky

Lil' Davis Designs 'Away We Go' travel range

New in Lincraft stores this month is a gorgeous and versatile new travel range by Lil Davis Designs called "Away We Go".

When I received my samples from the range I knew immediately that I wanted to make a mini album with them to show off photos from our trip overseas in 2002.  Though at first glance the papers seem to be themed more towards a road trip, I had no trouble using them for my photos.  The diecut plane paper was PERFECT for my cover...

I have used a kraft Cloud 9 'Boardbook in a Box' as my base album (which will no longer fit back into the box I might add LOL) and simply trimmed my papers and photos to fit.  Rounding the corners of my papers and photos to match the book was easy using my Fiskars 'Round The Corner' punch.

The embellishing was easy; I used rub-ons, epoxy brads and chipboard words and layered chipboard alphas from the range, along with bits-and-pieces I collected during our trip and some other various London and France themed embellishments.

The chipboard word was just too thick to be placed in this position on the page, so I simply peeled the top coloured layer off (below right).

A close-up of the epoxy brad, used here with a photo turn to hold the tickets in place (below left).  A laminated swing tag from something I bought at Harrods, a pressed penny from Tower Bridge, and some misc metal-rimmed tags make a cute embellishment for the spine of my album (below right).

The chipboard word (below left) was the shape I wanted, but not the wording I wanted, so I cut a piece of cardstock to fit over it and used rub-ons to make my own title.  I've used spotty rub-ons to contrast with the striped paper on this page (below right).

Some of the papers do not feature travel-themed designs and would be great for masculine cards and layouts.  I'll definately be grabbing some more when I see it in-store !
