Digitally Sweet - Colour Challenge.

Hello All,

and welcome to my Scrapbooking Blog.

My post today is my entry for the new challenge at the  Digitally Sweet challenge and it is a digital scrap-page. I am getting back into the swing of things 'craftwise' and this is my first scrapbook challenge entry for quite a while. So here goes.

Using the collage below for inspiration, entrants are asked to create their colour interpretation for the challenge. I quite like the vibrtant colours and the combination works well. Lots of inspiration here.





So on to the scrapbook page.

Let me introduce you to Curtis. So keen was he to arrrive on Planet Earth, he arrived way ahead of schedule, creating quite a lot of excitement and concern at the same time. Curtis kept is nearest and very dearest on edge for some time but fought his way through and continues to thrive and grow. to the delight of all.


Jenna and Curtis

I love this photo of Curtis and his mum Jenna.  A happy and content baby  and a loving, doting mum: Just Fabulous!

The page was made using a combination of some digital kits (freebies) that I am trying to find the names for. As soon as I relocate the information I will update the blog.

Thank you for stopping by to read and comment on my blog. Your time is appreciated and your coments most welcome.

In the Kitchen- Stamping Dragon - New Challenge


Hell and welcome to  my scrapbooking Blog.

My post today is my digital DT scrap-page for the new challenge starting today over at the Stamping Dragon Challenge Blog with the theme  'In the Kitchen'. Stamping Dragon are also our sponsors and there is voucher to spend in the online store for the winner of this challenge.


The featured pack for this DT project is the Mustard Seed paper pack from Stamping Dragon. I have also used the digital stamps Baking One to add some embellishments to the layout.

Mustard Seed Paper Pack



I chose to use a photo of my lovely husband making the Christmas Pudding with the title  'Man at Work'. What you are seeing here is the cropped version as the kitchen was in such a state during and after this creative baking session, I couldn't let the public see it ! It was all very industrial for a bit, lots of debris and lots of clean up. But it was worth it. Between you and me the pudding was delicious!  I might let hubby have another go next time.


Man at Work!


I liked the traditional feel of the patterned papers and made my base from the most masculine (I thought) from the pack.  I used my Clipping Mask to  make the scalloped border which helps to anchor the photo and elements to the bottom of the page. 

I then made a template for a Tag and matched it in colour with the backing paper, using my Photoshop paint-pot to add the colour. The Mixing Bowl, Spoon and Roller were digitally coloured as were the eggs.

I am please , and so is hubby, with the result.  And now it's your turn. Pop over to the challenge blog and be inspired by the DT's creations. Whether it is a card or scrap-page, join in the fun with us. And you never know you might be a winner!

Stamping Dragon New Challenge. - 'Love is in the Air'

Hello and welcome to  my scrapbooking blog.


Today my post is my DT project for the new challenge starting over at  Stamping with Dragon challenge blog and the theme is appropriately enough ' Love is in the Air'.


Stamping Dragon are also our sponsors and very kindly offer the winner of the challenge a voucher to  spend in their on-line shop.






Made with the 'Mood for Love' digital paper kit and the Hearts and Flourishes image I created the page with a favourite photo of my son and his girl-friend.

Both papers and embellishments come from the Mood for Love kit . I used some of the flowers in the digi kit to decorate the flourishes and make some digital hearts using my Cookie -Cutter tool and adding the hearts to the ends of the flourishes,

Can you see Cupid?
