Creative Inspiration - Week 8 2015


Hello again.

I have had a very busy week this week. With getting used to new sports routines and changes to school classrooms  the kids and I have found it a bit of a juggle to get back on track. I know that we will get there but I can see that it will take a few weeks. 

With that in mind I am busily trying to get everything sorted and back into school mode around the house. 

And yes.. I am one of those crazy routine Mum's that thrive on a strict routine.. it keeps me sane.. especially when I am trying to keep track of four kids on my own..lol


Created a couple of cards this week as I am slowly coming to the end of this paper range. 

So here is this weeks share.
Two very quick cards created in a very busy week. Love how they turned out and glad that I was able to use up some more of this kit.

Kept the first card simple. I cut out the shapes from scraps of the paper kit and adhered them to a graph 4x6 journal card from my stash. I then wrapped the card in some red/blue and white twine. Then added a kraft journal spot I had grabbed at the last Mad About Scrappin sale (wishing now I had grabbed more as they are divine!!!!). I added the greeting using some acrylic alphas from my stash. Then I finished off the card with some star stickers from the matching sticker set and some clear dew drops from my stash. 

The second card was for my partner for Valentines Day. Wanted to create something just that little bit different. I stamped the kraft patterned paper then matted it onto some blue card stock as the card base. The added a strip of red striped paper that I had matted on some white card stock. With a journalling pen I added in some stitch lines then adhered a blue patterned paper circle I had adhered to  a large chipboard circle for depth. The people symbols I printed from the computer and then hand cut them out. I finished them off with some blue acrylic letters for the "x o". Finally finished off the card by creating a red bling heart made from the teenie sequins Leanne sent me to play with. Super cute and finished the card off perfectly. 

Well.. till next week.
