Hey everyone!  Hope you are all having an awesome Monday!  Well if there is such a thing! lol!
I am loving the 'Flea Market' line from Riddersholm!  What a fabulous line! 

Here is what I created

For this layout I did a lot of layering and of course I created some flowers!  I love how these papers all mix so well but yet each one stands out. 



On my next layout of my oldest when he was itty bitty, I inked a bit, distressed a bit, and dry brushed a little paint on to the inked chipboard from the Unicorn store!  Most of the flowers I made you can find in the tutorial section in the forum


and some close ups ;


 I hope you will consider buying these gorgeous Riddersholm papers next you shop!

My August kit Reveal!

Hey everyone!  I get to share some of my creations from my KOM today with you!
I thought I would start with the awesome OTP!  We received 4 canvases and gouache paint!  Oh too fun!  A friend of mine is an artist and told me that you can add water and paint to a small spray bottle it will work like a mist - too cool! I used some templates and started spraying! I also cut apart one of the gorgeous papers from Websters Pages and painted the glimmer glass black.  I made the flowers using what was left of the papers!





On my next layout, I did a bit of fussy cutting in the hearts, I sprayed the doily ( from my stash) with the gold perfect pearl mist from the kit, inked the edges of each paper and the flowers that are in the gorgeous kit and made some more flowers!


 and here is a close up

on my next project I worked with the Kaiser papers!  yummy! I cut the title and the flowers out of one of the papers, used some liquid pearls, and cut the butterfly out of the mistables - sprayed it and the doily with pink mist and gold perfect pearls mist, added the flourish and made some more flowers, spraying them with mists as well!


 and here is a close up

thanks so much for stopping by!
