The first ring I adhered to a piece of clear plastic and trimmed around the edges. then I layered the other 3 together and added them on the bottom die cut circle cut from pink pattern paper from the petite prints to create the bottom of my shaker pocket then I added a sticker from the truly grateful cardstock sticker sheet in the centre of the pink pattern paper then using the doodlebug glitter and truly grateful sequins I add a few in the centre then I adhered the lid with the clear plastic down.

Then I added a few more stickers and some pearls to finish off the card.

I started with pistachio cardstock for my card base

Next using patterned papers from the milk and cookies 6x6 paper pad 

By trimming them down and layering them on top of each other leaving a border 

Next I cut another strip of patterned paper to go in the center of the card

Then I cut a another strip of white cardstock just a bit smaller in height to leave a border on 2 sides of the cardstock strip.

Then I cut a strip of vellum to fit over the top of the strips of the cardstock and patterned paper 

Then I stamped the clear acrylic stamps happy holidays on the vellum with the new medium acrylic block and versafine ink and applied white embossing powder over it and heat set it.

Then layering them together I put little holes in 4 corners of the stripes and added mini brads

Added a mini white doily in the center of the card then adhered the strip with my sentiment across the middle of the doily.

I wanted to used red ,mint and pink as my colour palette 

and the So Punny Collection from Doodlebug is just perfect.

I went with a totally simple clean design layering strips at the top of my page and adding a few ephemera bits

Then I using one of the cut aparts ...(postcard) to matt my photo on 

And layering more of the lovely little xo paper and the little letters and envelopes paper behind my matted photo 

I used a chit chat ephemera bit for my title and a cute little bear sticker glued on a paper clip at the top of my photo 

At the bottom of my photo 8 fussy cut a heart from another bit of patterned paper and added another little heart beside it 

And I couldn’t resist making a little envelope to add a little card and bear inside and another beside it with a envelope 

And because I love fringes I add one to a paper layer 

I’ve used some leftovers from a layout using the so Punny Collection and a few stickers 

The alphas are from Doodlebug and American crafts just some I had leftover from a kit

Week 4 

Yep it’s my cat kush on his favourite box in the house we never move it as being blind tends to suck if you can’t find your favorite place in the house , so here he is on his back with one leg in the air trying to cool down on a day we had high temperatures... I do give him a shave in summer because he is so fluffy 

I used some patterned papers from everyday paper pad Jen Hadfield 

I started with fussy cutting out all the pencils and layering them as if they where plonked on a desk 

Then i added 4x6 cards that I cut out and layered a pocket and doily from doodlebug design 

Then I used the stickers sheet and added phrase stickers and a few hearts with the pencils 

I fussy cut some flowers from the floral patterned paper added them in the corners of my photo 

My girls first day back at school for the year

I cut the puffy tag sticker in half and tucked both halfs at top and bottom of my layout 

And adding a doily behind the photo to make the mint colour stand out a bit more behind the photo 

A fun paper clip from doodlebug and a puffy sticker (sisters)

I used 2 different alphas for my title 

The black alphas are from doodlebug and the mint and gold from pink fresh studio 

I also used puffy stickers around the layout to add pops of colour and texture
