Stamps Ahead

Here is a layout I have created for Soul Scrappers random word challenge.  The challenge was the theme of happiness, with 6 words to choose from. The words Good Cheer; Laughter or Laugh; Best Day Ever; Joy; Happy; Smile.  I, of course, selected SMILE. The photo was taken by the ship's photographer aboard Radiance of the Seas on my recent scrapbook cruise with Unmistakable Creations . I don't usually take a good photo, however I was quite pleased with this one taken on the green lit stairs.  I have used a Kaisercraft papers and they fit perfectly with the clean and simple layout I was wanting to achieve. I also did a little bit of cutting with knife blade on the right to cover the photo and a small ship die (that we were given on the cruise).  Thanks for looking, more layouts to follow. Margaret :)

I am just back from a South Pacific (including Tonga) cruise that ended in Auckland, NZ, my sister flew over from Sydney to join me there and we had 8 days along the top end coast of New Zealand. One wet day we decided to stay in and scrapbook for the day.   I had just come off a Scrapbooking rruise with Unmistakable Creations and had got her some papers whilst on board. I showed her some challenges on Soul Scrappers and here is what we did. My layout is for their Layout Challenge SC118: I have used Kaisercraft range Whispering Ivy and this paper range was one that we used on the cruise, I have used left overs from the kit supplied to create this layout. The large flower was fussy cut. What is not evident on this photo is under the cluster on middle left there is a white doily poking out.  Photos to be added later. This is the layout my sister created, again using a Kaisercraft range of papers I gave her.  Paris is one of her favourite cities.  Again, photo...

I have had time to play around with Dylusions Ink Sprays and new to me Kaszazz products. Here is the layout I have designed inspired by a layout by Jess Williams for Kaszazz.   I have not been able to find any links for her, so if you are reading this Jess, thank you. Photo to be added. Lots of Dylusions Ink Spray - Pomegranate Seed, Dirty Martini and Slate Grey and stamping with Dylusions Paint - White Linen.  Everything used is available from Kaszazz and yes, I recently became a consultant! I am planning on running a class with this layout shortly. Close up of the spraying and inking. All products used available from Kaszazz. Happy Days in  2018.   Margaret :)
