On a slightly smaller scale!

Hello! Hello!

O.K. so I'm really a scrapbooker at heart that sometimes goes slightly rogue.

I love to do large scale mini albums...mmm not sure if that makes much sense? Occasionally I like to also play with different challenges that come my way. Now up until a month ago I wasn't a card girl (truth is I can't stand giving them away) but after having a little play I found an enjoyment in making them.

This month Twiddleybitz had a card swap........ so I have made three and now face the dilema of which card I'm going to send to a perfect stranger...don't worry stranger I believe in Karma and what goes around comes around.

Here's the cards!


Featuring Twiddleybitz!




I have also been enjoying the stunning papers of Pink Paislee and My Minds Eye lately.
Added touches of Prima, Kaiser, Prairie bird ribbon, Crafty Secrets, smooch
and K & Co.








Whatever card I decide to send I hope it is recieved in hapiness!

I say shabby.........

He says 'MESSY'!

Hi there, Typical husband just thinks scrapbooking causes nothing but mess, regardless of the outcome. Shabby? Vintage? whatever you call it it =mess!

I'm just finishing off my Brisbane Scrapbook Expo pieces for Twiddleybitz.

I thought I would show you the cover and a page sneak peak of my Altered book.I will show all in a couple of weeks when the expo is on.



A Vintage style card.

Here's where the shabby comes into it!
O.K. I realized the glue isn't even dry yet.......oops!
All I can say is after 10 years of my mess I thought he would of got over it and stopped winging! LOL! G!

No time to play and edit now.........my kids will be in my ear at 6.30am so all can wait till tomorrow.

Twiddling ATC's

hey there!

This year at Brisbane expo Twiddleybitz are having an ATC swap.

Of course they must have some Twiddley on them and you must be prepared to never see them again! Don't panic as in return you get some different one's back that others have made.

Here's a few that I have made to swap.

Some Itty Bitty alhphabets.
A little love sharing.

feeling like going to Paris!


And a touch of mini Butterflies!

I often just use chipboard raw to add that earth/natural element. Oh! A touch of Tim Holtz Crackle paint is a favourite as well!

Ciao! G

keeping Green!

Hi there,

This week I have had a really bad case of the dreaded flu. So maybe that explains why I'm in a Green and blue mood.

This is Number 3 of the 4 layouts I'll be teaching at Scrappy Hollow on the 5th June. (2 others are shown in previous post).


a long JOURNEY.............


Pink Paislee butterfly garden, Twiddleybitz Itty Bitty alpha and Vine leaves and Prima
The title is made from calico and dyed with Fiberscraps Ink Tintz.

The P/Paislee butterfly garden range is stunning so I wanted to keep the layout simple to show just how beautiful the paper is!
One more layout to go....... and so should I if I want to get it done.
Cheers! G
