Charm's Creations: Lovely Lollipops

Do your kids scrap?

I used to be the Mum that wouldn't let my kids scrap.... because as most of you know it can be a bit too much when they are asking to use your favourite papers, alphas and embellishments! And then there's the I want to use paint & I want to use this... don't even TRY to scrap when THEY are scrapping!!!

SOOOO, I thought I wouldn't be so selfish and actually LET them scrap for once... and surprisingly it wasn't AS BAD as I thought... haha! I think it's because now they are a bit older now and have been going to school and know how to do *things* like cut & paste and figure out where they want it to go {even if you don't agree hehe!}

I gave them the Show Us your Stuff Kids Challenge criteria - which is quite simple - to use 2 or more photos, and of course - something HANDMADE - coz that is what SUYS is all about!

These are the two pages they come up with, and I must say I am quite impressed!!!

This first layout is created by Chei - if you couldn't tell ;)

and the details....

and as you can see... he has used my Charms Creations Lovely Lollipops...

YES, I did manage another layout {and a couple more for my CT stuff for Feb} this one is for Tara's Colour Challenge @ Savvy, they are also having a Cybercrop - which ends on Thursday...

The colours were different and not what I'd usually put together, so I am reall loving how it turned out! Using a few of Eb's techniques that I learnt too ;)

Raided my "shop" again - this time I used a Charms Creations Red & Orange Heavenly Heart...

and an Orange And Cream Lovely Lollipop too!

Used a bit of texture paste.... and twirled some string ;)

Thanks for looking!

Just because...

I was having a play.... with this fab heart mask that I was given by the lovely Ebony Van Der Starre when I visited her the other week.... I love it....

I took the colours and pattern of the dress and the water gun to create the page... and LOVE the outcome :)

thank goodness Mum had the perfect mists for it - yes, another one from my scrappy night :)

The Lil Red Rocket Purple spotty button & the twine was perfect with my Charms Creations Green & Cream Lovely Lollipop and Blue Fabulous Flower...

and with creating this layout - I invented a new Heavenly Heart!!! Love the colour combo - hope some of you like it too!

The Color Room #94...

I've finally had a chance to play again at The Color Room - my first one for the year :) You can check out the Colour Room Palette for this week HERE

I was just starting this at the end of a fabulous scrappy night at the Mt Gambier Scrappers get together last night - when I realised it was time to pack and go home.... so I finished it off when I got home!

I've used one of my Charms Creations Typewriter Fabulous Flowers & a White & Cream Lovely Lollipop... along with a GORGEOUS Prima Flower that I was excited to see {and bought} from the Local Scrappy Shop here in MT G! yay!
