Sweet Girl

I am an avid follower of Prima.  Early this month, they posted the December Prima Product Pick and Palette and this one shows the colors to follow:

I love these Christmas colors!  They add joy to this special day not to mention the family gatherings and gift-giving.  I can't help but create a layout showcasing the above colors and this one's my masterpiece...

Wondering how I did the vine on the right side of the layout?  

I cut it from the Folio paper (under Printery Collection).  It was black.  Hence, I...

1.  traced the vine with a light brown paint 

2.  second coating was dark brown paint

3.  the top was finished with red, green and gold glitters

...  then viola!  It became a gorgeous embellishment!

I apologize for not providing a bigger screenshot.  I'll post it by next week.

This is a very late post.  Been sick even before Christmas.  Then in bed after the holidays due to flu.  = (

Anyway, I am still posting my layout following the last sketch for December at Sketches in Thyme.

A quickie post...

Sharing with you this cute layout.

I used Pink Paislee products in here.  Some are from Parisian Anthology while others are from the Daily Junque Collection.

The pearls look good on top, right?  I just bought them from a local fabric store, LOL.

So I hope you like it.

Chipboards, chipboards!

I love chipboards!

Why?  Because chipboards are versatile and add dimension to any projects.  You can do anything you like on it and put it anywhere you want to.

Crate Paper Class with Iris Uy - November 2011

The girls had a great time at Lasting Impression last Saturday during the Crate Paper Class with our master, Iris Uy.  Our goal was to finish five layouts using the new Random Collection but Iris was able to create another one so we had a total of six layouts instead.

Sharing with you my versions:

1st Layout - Sweet and Adorable

2nd Layout - Feels like a child again



3rd Layout - Beautiful Princess

4th Layout - Animal Lover

5th Layout - Me & You

6th Layout - Happy Times



In the 4th layout, we were able to use UTEE or Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel.  It was my first time and I enjoyed doing it.  I just need more patience if I do it all by myself.

So that's it!  Thanks for viewing!

Enjoy the weekend!

One of the favorites in Scrap-it-Lah!

I was just able to check my favorite sites and I am glad to see that my layout has been chosen as one of the DTs favorites.

Happy weekend everyone!
