Project Life | Week 18

Posting Photos of my absolute favourite page so far from my 2013 album

I used My Mind Eye's Paper and Stamps for this page from their 'The Sweetest Thing" Collection.. I love how all the paper and pattern coordinate with each other.. It made it a really easy spread to put together

New Camera!

I finally got myself a new camera..

A Sony NEX-5R and a 50mm lens..

Takes really nice photos, I'm so happy with it! And this is without even trying with proper lights or changing the camera settings...

Look at the difference!

New Camera


Old Camera
The best shot I could get with my Canon Ixus SX230...

ColourQ - #205

I made a simple card for the ColourQ challenge, I loved the colour combination this week.. I think island indigo and pink are nice contrasting colours.. 

Anyway, here is my card!



I made my own enamel dots too - using nail polish .. lol

Here is the link to the challenge

Thanks for looking!





Project Life - Week 27

I completed this layout using cards from Studio Calico's Marks & Co kit. It really made me motivated to do this PL layout this week, and I think the colours worked well together. I love the aqua letter stickers, aqua is one of my favourite colours

Inked Class - Studio Calico

I have been participating in the Studio Calico Inked class - it's focused on using your stamps more and several techniques you can apply using your stamps. 

So far I have made 2 cards for the class


These cards both use the stamp set provided for the class
The first card - the paper is a bit wonky.. oh well! 


I applied glossy accents to all of the pins and the frame, unfortunately its hard to see the shine on the pins, but it's there 

Having lots of fun making these cards, as I am forcing myself to make a card every night and actually use my supplies!
