Birthday layout

Hi all

Before I immerse myself into the behemoth that is Christmas Crafting, I made a layout using pictures from my birthday and party.

I hand drew the bubble writing... Just drawing guide lines and filling them in with colour is all you need to do!

To get your pictures into 'film strips', first crop them into squares (or use instagram and save the pictures from Facebook) and when you go to print, select up to nine photos and print wallet size on A4 which prints 9 to a page. The pictures will all be lined up ready to cut out.

Music has always inspired my creative work. The title "Twenty One & Invincible" is the title of a Something Corporate song I loved when I was younger,  and still do. If you want a listen, it's HERE. 

Have a good weekend!

More docrafts makes, plus I wrote a poem...

Hi everyone!

I've a lot of unfinished projects at the moment - 

So instead of getting on with them, I wrote a poem...

Some of my makes for docrafts are live on their site now,

The first are some adorable little pillow gift boxes using this download with the Papermania Little Meow Collection.

The second thing is a piece I'm really proud of - a scrapbook page I made for my trial for the Design Team. I was sent basic supplies, coloured paper and a paperclip die set. All my ideas for this brief focused on colour and I'd always wanted to use this ferris wheel photo in a layout. 

This 8x8" page is made using the Feeling Fruity? download, a lovely summery collection. 

                                       
The last is a card using the Thread Effect  download, blue and brown patterns that work great with the Craft Collection Pastels products.

Find out more about my makes in my docrafts gallery

Today I am going into town and to the Range with my fella. Hopefully I can find that neon cardstock I mentioned in the video! Haha

Oh, and an update on the Chilli situation from last weekend.

I can happily report that it was the best chilli I'd ever made and my family loved it!
