How stunning are the colours in this layout? Such a lovely photo and just gorgeous with the K & Co flowers and leaves accesorising the page.

I love the colours in this layout and the way Beverley has used the combination of a colour and black and white photo, it really helps back up the theme of the layout “seeing clearly”.


Happy BirthStop!!! Beverley Warwick

Beverley’s youngest was most disgruntled to find that her castle cake was not facing towards her when it came time to blow out the candles. Mum had turned it this way for the photo’s. She yelled out “Stop” partway into the birthday song and wouldn’t let the song continue until the cake was around the right way again! What a great layout to capture this special memory.

Fun – Ann McLachlan

March 21, 2009

Hi everyone,

I loved the look of the Pink Paisley “Lovey Dovey” paper from the Sweet Cakes Collection and it matched these photos of my youngest daughter Caitlyn perfectly.

fun

I distressed the edges and layered the paper between the cardstock to form a frame.

Adding some of the various ribbons and layering the die cuts gave a bit of dimension to the layout.

And of course i did have to add the occasional bead here and there.

It must be hot – Michelle

it-must-be-hot-1

Michelle sounds a lot like me, there’s no way I will get in a swimming pool unless it’s sweltering hot. We had a quite a few days like this over summer and I probably spent more time in the water than I ever have before.

I love Michelle’s beaded flower stems, check out the detail below:

Thanks Michelle!

U make my house a home – Michelle

u-make-my-house-a-home-1

Another gorgeous layout with our March kit (still available here).  Michelle has created a lovely page for her little boy with a sequence of casual photo’s taken when he wasn’t looking! She has framed the photo’s with strips of the house patterned paper  raising up  some of the houses with pop dots to add dimension.

Here it is in closer detail:

More from Michelle tomorrow!
