Renaissance Flower

Todays Spellbinders card is one of my favourites. I used Spellbinders Renaissance Hearts Pendants, Nestabilities Scalloped Circles, Nestabilities Circles to create the flower. The border is made from Renaissance Hearts Borderabilities.

Spellbinders "Fleur de lis" Pendant

Hello again, I'm back as promised. Here is another basic card using Spellbinders.

To make this one I used the Fleur de lis Pendant and the Nestabilities - Labels 1 for the centre embellishment. Border was cut using Fiskars Border Punch - Sunburst.

Hopefully I have provided some inspiration to get you started on some basic cards with Spellbinders. Please check back soon, I have a special card I am waiting to show you all.

Spellbinders "Precious" Baby Card

Hi, Nic here. I have recently been playing hard with "Spellbinders". If you don't know, Spellbinders allow you to cut, emboss and stencil with a singe die. They are totally awesome and soooo easy to use. This is my first Spellbinders card.

To create the sentiment embellishment I used Nestabilities Classic Ovals Large and Nestabilities Classic Scalloped Ovals Large, and stamped wth JustRite Baby Stamp Ensemble. The star was cut & embossed from Shapeabilities Stars.

I will be uploading more cards soon. Keep checking back!

Basic Grey - June Bug

Hi there! It has been a while since I've posted here, but all that is going to change! Keep an eye out, we are planning on updating here reguarly again!

I have been busy scrapping at home the past few months. I am still really ejoying working with Kit type sets of product and using up as much as I can before I move on. I know I will never go back to old stock, not because I don't like it, just because it is too hard, LOL, so I am trying to make the most of what I buy these days.

Here is a layout I have done using the June Bug Range from Basic Grey. I love to try and focus on the not so obvious colours I see in a range, so I am really happy with how this layout turned out. I know they are not the usual colours you would use for a 90 Year Old's Birthday, but Nana is not your average 90 Year Old!!

I have used 1pp, chipboard shapes, mini alphas, rubons and accent stickers. I also have another 8 or so layouts planned to do at the retreat in October.

If you like what you see, head over to the shop and you will get 25% off both the June Bug and the Lemonade range at the moment!

Happy Scrapping!

Basic Grey

Hi everyone, Katie here. I thought I would jump on and share one of my latest pages using some of the delectable Lemonade collection from Basic Grey! I have to say this is a fun collection to work with, so bright and colourful and very versatile too!

You might have noticed me using one of my new favourite obsessions in this page too! Namely my Fiskars "Apron Lace" border punch. These border punches are such an easy way to dress up your page, and one is definitely never enough! I am quite partial to the Effervescence punch too! So there you have it, the very fun and funky Lemonade range from Basic Grey. Catch you next time!

Me and My Big Ideas (or MAMBI for short!)

Hi, Michelle here.

MAMBI have come up with a fantastic new range of papers and embellishments which I am sure will catch your eye with their bold patterns and beautiful colours. I was lucky enough to get to choose some papers to use from the fantastic Fashion District Specialty Paper Pack which includes 30 papers for just $19.95 (or 66 cents a sheet) . This is wonderful value at any time but especially in this case where almost all of the papers are either shaped and, glittered or embossed as well as different sizes and as a bonus, you get two of each paper. You can pay up to $4.00 for a single sheet of similar paper.

In my layout "SMILE", I have used one of the "Smile" words, as well as stickers from the Family Pack of stickers which includes, two alphabets, flowers, punctuation and words. The big flowers have been cut from one of the pieces of patterned paper.

You can't go wrong with these papers and embellishments. Your only problem will be deciding which ones to use first!
