Purple Sparkle ATC Swap - June 2012

Hi All!

Just dropping by to share some gorgeous Purple and Sparkle ATC's from a FB group that I participated in back in June.

The requirements for this swap was that each card had to have purple somewhere on it and a bit of sparkle! I love all the different styles.

This was the card that I made. I used sparkly purple and pink paper for the flowers, which I stuck on before running the whole piece through my Ezy-Press machine!  Plus for a little bit of extra sparkle, I added some icestickles to the centre of each flower.

Cheers......

Only 2 more to go........

WOW!

I just noticed that I currently have 48 blog followers! WOW - I feel so honoured!

So, I have decided to have a little giveaway when I have reached the big 5-0!!!!!!

Stay tuned and watch this space!

One Busy Nanna!

Hi All!

Thought I would share these photos with you all, showing what my Mum got up to when she was here visiting for 3 weeks.  She got all this done, plus still had time to help me spring clean the house, play with the kids, go shopping with me, finish Little mans vest and knit him a dinosaur! WOW - she was certainly one busy Nanna!

###Well here goes - I have been trying to post this post for a while now - but blogger hasn't been playing nicely. So fingers crossed that it works today and you can all see the pictures!###

Plus on top of all of these cards - she managed to scrap two double page scrapbook layouts and completed her Scrap Challenge page entry for our upcoming Scrapbooking retreat in Sept/Oct.

Hope you enjoyed looking at my Mum's creations!  All of them are current Kaszazz workshops with the exception of the Owl cards, which has since been retired.

Black & White ATC Swap - May 2012

Hi All!

Just dropping in to quickly share some gorgeous Black & White ATC's that I received in the mail yesterday!

I was lucky enough to join in a FB group swap, where the theme was simple - it just had to be a Black & White. Simple, yeah right, hundreds of ideas flooded my brain and what I ended up with was nothing like I had originally planned.

This was the ATC that I made for the swap.....

and these are the other 9 that I received.....

 Please excuse the plastic covers they are all still in! But, as you can see, they are all different and simply gorgeous. I love how there aren't even two that are remotely the same.

Anyway, I should start getting on to this month's ATC swaps - the theme is Purple and Bling!

Cheers......

Feeling Sketchy Challenge #9

CRAFTMAD MAY CARD SWAP SPOILER ALERT! 

EYAK48 DO NOT READ!

Hi All!

I am sure you have all noticed my absence over the last couple of months - I have seriously lost my papercraft mojo and despite countless attempts to find it again - It was just not happening! 

As usual, I had put my name down to do a Thankyou card swap over at Craftmad for the month of May (I can't help myself) - leaving it until only yesterday to make a start on my two cards that should have been received by this date by my swap partner! 

I was having big trouble - that is until I saw the below sketch challenge over at the Feeling Sketchy blog!

and even though this challenge was meant to be a scrapbook page - they were allowing  it to be made into a card, as long as you followed the sketch!

So, after pulling out numerous stashed supplies left right and center, I created the following....

Not much Kaszazz product on this one other than Supa Tape and the Dark Brown Ink pad! The gorgeous Teddy Bear image was from a book that I had almost donated to Vinnies, when I happened to look at it in a different light and decided to repurpose it!

So now I am off to make the other Thankyou card to send so I can pop them in the post tomorrow when I am in town. 

Cheers....

Ridgecrest in Coffs!

Hi All!

For the regular readers of my blog, you will already know how my Mum and I organize two Scrapbooking weekends a year at Ridgecrest Mumbil NSW!  

This weekend just gone saw 16 ladies gather at Ridgecrest for a fantastic scrapbooking packed weekend, unfortunately I was unable to attend, so I created my own version of  "Scrap Me Happy" up here in Coffs!

Although, I did have to clean my scrapping area before I could start....

so once it was clean and amongst all the Mummy and housework interruptions, I was able to create these pages......

Well technically I had already done the page above at the last Ridgecrest, but I finally did the journalling!

There are still two more small square photos to go on this calendar page - but my printer was not playing nicely, so I will add them once I get them printed.

So all in all, not a very big effort for my so called "Scrap Me Happy"  weekend, but it was enough to give me back my scrapping Mojo and I can't wait to do some more.

Oh and I thought you might like to see how my crafting area fared after the two days.....

Not too bad at all!

Cheers 

Kaszazz - Not just for papercrafting!

Hi Everybody! It's really really slack me finally reporting back to my very neglected little blog.

I can explain my whereabouts - honestly!!!!! I have just been busy sewing and avoiding my crafting table ever since I had a baby red belly snake deciding to make its new home under there!  So now I have decided to be brave enough to come back and be creative once again.

Anyway, before I start blogging my paper creations, I thought I would share with you all this gorgeous patchwork pot holder and owl shelf sitter that I made for a swap over at the Craftmad site.

Do you recognize the black pupils on the owl??? They are the largest black buttons sold by Kaszazz in the 2920 Embellishment - Buttons (108) Earth tones pack!

I love how I can combine my sewing and papercrafting addictions to make such fantastic creations.

Cheers.....
