April Kaisercraft Projects

During the past week I've been a very busy girl, as it was my turn to post my April projects on the

Kaisercrafties blog.  Here are my projects using the Tea at Elsie's collection.

On this layout I used some "very" old photos of Stef and I, taken in about 1995ish when we were engaged.  We both had quite a laugh at ourselves and how much younger,.....thinner.....darker haired.......we were way back then and how the years have changed us both.  I think we've aged pretty well really, and I still think Stef is a huge spunk...lol.

Here's a close up of some of the tearing and paper layering....

I also used the Kaisercraft Floral tags to create a little keepsake about some of Belle's Bedtime routines.....

This next layout uses the Utopia Collection.  I chose to focus on the blues and greens for my layout of Noah.  I love how this page turned out.....probably because I really love how beautiful he looks in this photo.

and this one uses the new Alphabet stickers released as part of Kaisercraft New Core Products.  Rather than use the letters, I often find I have a whole heaps of numbers left over.  With that in mind, I decided to create a matt using the numbers in this layout about Joshua's 3rd birthday.  This has to be one of my favourite so far!

and here is a close up...

..........and finally my collection of Mother's Day cards.

and my favourite one....

Be sure to pop back and see my May poem layout for Scrap that Poetry....it's one for the Mum's!

Thanks for stopping by!

Craft Shelf

Here's a little something I've been working on over the last little bit....

My friend Chelle ( scrapbookit ) and her very clever husband Rick, make and sell these at their shop.  Rick also made the desk in my scrap room, so he's obviously very good at what he does!

Here it is...

How cute are these papers???? 

In an effort to clear my ever growing stash of papers, I've decided to go back and use some of my older papers and those I can't use, I'll pop in a crafting box for Belle.

These cuties are some very old Cosmo Cricket papers!

Love the colour combination of these papers and how Cosmo always has a "strips' paper with great little sayings.  I also used some old Basic Grey ribbon too!

All in all I was really pleased with how my little shelf came together and also the fact that I've used some old supplies.  I also decorated a magazine box that I've had in my box of BTP items for ages.

Well that's it for now.

Thanks for stopping by!

La Di Da - Kaiser......

Better late than never I always say.....

Here are some more of my Kaisercraft projects from the other week! It was so nice to actually make something just for me, as often times, my BTP items are pressies. Here is my journal, which I intend to use as an ideas journal for sketches and stuff and I cover the memo cube to match as they will both reside on my scrapping desk.

I used the beautiful La DI Da papers, which have become one of my favourites from the Q3 collections.  I also used these papers and some of the new Mini Acrylic stamps to create the layout below.

Well, it's Sunday afternoon here and the day is just beautiful, so I'm off to enjoy some sunshine in the garden with Stef and the kids.\

Take care! xxx
