Unwritten

Sometimes the best things in life are the things left
unsaid and are just shown. Actions always speak louder
than words and when it comes the little ones in our
lives the only thing left to do is act! This 12x6 page was
made for such a time. These two definitely took me
by surprise and stole me heart.

I have always been a fan of layers so here is a BUNCH!!!

On this page I used Upsy Daisy's Unwritten line and

Little Ones Seals! There are some extra added goodies

which the Unwritten line inspired me to use as well. This

line screams heart felt sentiments, love, and

romance perfect for this month of February or when you

simply just want to express yourself in silent thought.

Until next time have a wonderful time creating!!!

Boys to Men

It has been a pleasure to work with the "Man About Town" range of papers this week.

As a mother of three boys I often struggle to find appropriate papers and embellishments for their layouts - well, problem solved!

These papers are soft, masculine and subdued. They seem to suit any type of layout theme with any kind of photo.

One of the types of photos I have tried with the Man About Town range this week has been Black and White portraits.

Take a look at this and tell me whether you think they just fit perfectly for black and white photos (or even sepia):

This Layout "fell into place" with ease due to those papers being so wonderfully co-ordinated.

The Argyle pattern I have used is a very simple one to create - simply cut out several diamonds from your patterned papers and adhere them in a straight line.

When you have finished sticking them down, draw a line through the centre of each diamond - first one way, then the opposite way making a cross in the centre of each diamond.

The argyle pattern reflects the wonderful pattern on the "Grafton" paper in the background. Combined with those gorgeous blues and soft greens it makes a fabulous boy page.

Have fun and happy scrapping girls!

CHA - New Release Pt. VI

All good things must come to an end and with today's post not only will we show you the last of our our new releases but you also have one more chance of winning our CHA prize pack!

Actually, we have been so excited to see all your comments and learn that we are giving away TWO prize packs. That's right - we are going to have two winners....wooohooo

As you have seen we were busy creating super cute stamps and rub ons to coordinate with our existing paper lines but we also wanted to offer something for the card-makers amongst you. With that in mind we have introduced our sentiments/greetings rub ons with repeating images and sentiments. But of course they can be used on layouts and altered projects too!

Last but by no means least we thought that another set of alpha rub ons would be a perfect additions to our selection of existing {rub ons}Now, let us re-flect on the previous posts and all the new releases we have shown you - have you found your favourite amongst all those stamps and rub ons? Or do you want/need them all? Tell us what you think and each comment from today's post will be entered into the CHA prize draw.

Thank you for all your lovely comments over the last days. It has been great to read them all and we appreciate that you took the time to check us out. Please bookmark our page as we will have many fun projects coming up on the blog, including challenges and contests...you don't want to miss what we have in store for you!
We are hoping to announce the winners for our CHA prize packs within the next couple of days, so do check back as it might just be YOU!

CHA - New Release Pt. V

Welcome to our penultimate CHA reveal - didn't time just fly? Hard to believe that we are almost done with our new products...
Have you already found you favourite amongst our new releases? It is kinda difficult, don't you agree? All four lines plus their coordinating stamps and rub ons are so different yet work so perfectly with each other that it seems impossible to pick a favourite...so why not treat yourself to all of them *wink, wink*But with all our brand new releases we don't want to forget our other fantastic paperlines {Flutter} - {Vroom} - {Cupcake} and {Tweet}. And because we love them just as much as the new kids on the block, we have created some fantastic rub ons to coordinate with each of those lines, too.
Now aren't those just delightful? These may even be part of our CHA prize pack, so if you want to be in it to win it - just leave us a comment on today's post and tell us why you like using rub ons.

What makes you smile?

For me...it's all the YUMMY New goodness that UDD has designed! Not only is it GORGEOUS...but the quality is the BEST TOO!

Here are a couple creations I've done using a couple of the new lines.

LOVE:

...and up close:

And My littlest LOVE:

...and up close. :)

I can not wait to see what everyone who gets their hands on these new lines creations! :)
Be sure to post a link here to share you creations too...we would LOVE to see them ALL!
