But Mum! I need it for my Movie...

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a wonderful day.  Its Tracey here (yes I am still here LOL) and I have a fun, scary layout to share with you today. 

With Halloween not far away there are lots of wonderful papercrafts products around to help you document this fun time.  But Halloween themed papers are also good for other layouts too.

On a recent holiday to Singapore my Son found a very scary toy head that he wanted to buy and the latest paper range from Authentique called "Spirited" was just perfect for these fun photos...

I also got the chance to play with some awesome chipboard from "Your Creative Wings" which added the perfect touch to my layout.

I have to admit that I am not really a fan of chipboard but these are just fantastic.  I love the fact that I can use them just as they are without having to paint them (I am a lazy scrapbooker) and I just love the detailed that is etched into the chipboard.

I fell in love with this beautiful swirl...

Thanks for spending a few moments with me and I hope I have inspired you to think about Halloween themed papers a little differently.  The papers and chipboard that I have used are all available at Tomorrow's Memories.  If you have any questions or want to know more about my layout please leave a comment and I will be happy to help.

Have a great week

Love me :-)

Simple Chalkboard Style Christmas Cards

Hi everyone!  It's Louise with you today and I would love to share a simple but striking card and tag that are easy to mass produce for Christmas.

I have used the stamp set and 6.5" x 6.5" paper pad from Kaisercraft's North Pole Collection and these are available at Tomorrow's Memories right now.

I diecut a bauble shape for my tags but you could also use a circle punch.  I then stamped a wreath from the set with Versamark ink and white heat embossed it.  I then stamped the "JOY" sentiment in Versamark and red heat embossed it.  To create the chalkboard look I simply sponged some white chalk ink randomly over the surface.

To create my card, I took the "MERRY CHRISTMAS" sentiment and stamped it repeatedly with white pigment ink.  While that dried, I layered some of the patterned paper and created another stamped and heat embossed bauble tag.  Once again, the chalkboard look was created by lightly sponging on white chalk ink- but take care to ensure the pigment ink is completely dry or else it will smudge!

These were super-easy to create in assembly-line fashion and I was able to churn out 12 cards and 12 tags in under two hours.  Be sure to leave a comment if you have any questions :-)

New Product | Your Creative Wings Chipboard

Hi everyone, it's Louise with you today and I would love to share a few projects I made using Your Creative Wings Chipboard, which is available now at Tomorrow's Memories.

Your Creative Wings is a family owned and run business, specializing in laser cut chipboard.  Their chipboard comes in a natural kraft finish and is 1.8mm thick.

To start with I made a set of three cards using the YCW Monsters 1 Set.....

I coloured my monsters with markers and combined them with papers from Kaisercraft's Something Blue collection and a really old stamp set from my stash.....

Next, I took a variety of chipboard from these sets.....

.....and added inks and embossing powders to create the colours and finishes I wanted,  combined them with papers from Kaisercraft's Pitter Patter Collection, to create this layout.....

I hope you will visit Tomorrow's Memories and grab some  Your Creative Wings Chipboard- it is great quality and there are so many different ways to use it!
