You are My Rainbow - Brincadeira #16

Este layout eu fiz com a inspiracao de recordar os momentos pequenos das nossas vidas porem inesqueciveis. Esta foto da minha filha brincando com um jato de agua na Disney e um desses momentos. Nunca pensei que um pequeno jato de agua iria fazer-la tao feliz!!!! Foi um dos momentos em que eu a vi mais feliz e bati muuuuuuuitas fotos!!! A felicidade dela me contagiou! Eu que nao queria ficar molhada mas depois que eu a vi tao feliz resolvi colocar as bobeiras de adulto e brincar com o jato tambem. Foi um momento em que eu tambem pude ser crianca!!!!
Aqui eu usei papel e decoracoes do Crate Paper Season Collection. Coloquei botoes nos arco-iris para dar definicao. Adorei a brincadeira #16!!
This layout I completed for a Brazlilian blog called Scrap Playground where the challenge was to scrap a little moment which makes us happy. This was such a moment where my daughter got so happy playing with a jet of water at Disney and I never knew it would make her so happy!

Evelyn's Birthday

This layout I made for a challenge over at ScrapFit again. Their challenges are really great fun! This time it was a challenge for using paper strips. I had this idea for a LO for sometime - using a paper which had stripes and then from that creating some ribbons. I saw this as my opportunity to try this out.
I cut out some strips from some Crate Paper and cut the ends out to make them look like ribbons. For the title I folded the strip a bit to make it stand out a bit more

Dream

I just came across a new challenge blog called Bird is the Word. They give you a word and you do a layout based with that word. This is such a great idea for a challenge blog and I am already thinking of ways to do the next word which is LOVE.
The word must be on the title or journalling.
I had these pics of the girls and some more Sassafras Sunshine Broadcast papers and Crate Paper season ones (again... I do own ALOT of other paper believe me!) which I felt were perfect for this theme.
I used my Fiskars Cloud punch and again used the negative of the punch. However this time I put some blue ribbon (you can't really see it here) behind the negative just to give it some more flair. I am getting a haul box full scrappy goodies today from Frantic Stamper (US) which includes amongst lots of other goodies the Large Fiskars Cloud Punch which I am anxiously waiting for!!! Come on Parcel Force!! Oh and lots of SMASH stuff too!! It is a good day today!!!

Never Stop Smilling

As I mentioned earlier I love this Crate Season paper. I used the EK Success Butterly punch, Fiskars Cloud Punch and the Sunshine Broadcast Papers from Sassafras. I love using the negative from the butterfly punch on my layouts and for this one I also used the negative of the cloud punch to add dimension.

Never Stop Running

I subscribe to loads of kits! I love them and find that when I am out of time they are really handy for getting a page done fast! This one I used the August kit from Crafty Templates http://craftytemplates.blogspot.com/. They are called Quirky Kits and I love them as they are different and always include cute embellishments. This one I used Sassafras Sunshine Broadcast and then I added some of my own Crate Paper Season collection paper. I have made soooooooo many layouts with these cloud papers! I am not bored yet though and I still have loads left!!!!
I made this layout following a challenge over at Pencil Lines challenge blog http://www.pencillines.com/. I love this sketch and I see myself using this again!!

You Color My World

I am doing more and more layouts with scenery behind it. It is really enjoyable thinking of ways in which to make trees, rainbows, flowers etc....! I love using the Starbucks wooden stirrers as tree trunks. I pain Tim HOltz crackle paint on them and they crackle and really look like tree trunks. I used this technique in the Messing around in the Garden layout below (which used Green at Heart BG collection) This uses Crate Paper Season collection. Crate Paper is one of my fave brands ever!
