Here is my take on the colour palette. I have used My Minds Eye Your Story collection and a stunning cut file from Elles Studio.

I am super excited to join the Paper Issues DT!  You really need to head over to the on line store and see the amazing product they have! Today I have created a layout using the fun and fantastic collection by Amy Tangerine On a Whim. I adore this photo of my wee boy totally loving being at the beach, of course being two you don't have to wear pants you know lol!

Don't you just love this pineapple cut file which I paper pieced with the wonderful papers from this collection. The pineapple cut file is free (NSD cut files) in store. I also added two palm leaves which are cut files and backed them in green and attached with foam tape. Then it was for the fun part adding lots of layers and ephemera . I then added random sewing to add texture. There is a slide show of some close up photos below.

Here are the links to Paper Issues, head over to the shop, blog for more inspiration and join us on Face book and Instagram.

Today it is all about Mother's Day or grandmothers!  Create an altered paper project or layout, use letters in a fun way, add a monogram or in anyway that celebrates these wonderful women in our lives. What a great challenge!

Here is my take on this challenge. I have used Doodlebug Cream and Sugar collection which is available in the Paper Issues on line store.  My monogram MOM heart is a cut file which I backed with the gorgeous papers from this collection. I love hanging out with my mum having tea or coffee and some sweet treats hence the themes of my layout.​

Head over to the blog for all the details and we do hope you will join us!

I have created a Mothers Day gift using a cheap frame. My mother being British is an avid tea drinker and therefore this collection by Kaisercraft High Tea was perfect to decorate my frame. I love this photo of my mother and I, and as she says handmade gifts have so much more meaning than a bought gift! I have used Helmar adhesives to create this. Please head over to the Helmar blog to see how I created this and more photos!

Here is another layout I created over the (inter) NSD and it's all about fun! I love pineapples, do not ask me why as I am not a fan of this food but boy they look fab on a layout. I was very excited to find a fringed pineapple cut file to say the least!  I also added another layer of fringe with a vellum sheet I found with gold pineapples on. I used some floral cut files from the Paper Issues store which were free to add to the top of my pineapple and backed them in a contrasting colour. The fringed pineapple can be found in the Silhouette Design store. I have used Crate Paper Oasis collection.

Well today is the day we all get to celebrate our craft!

I am celebrating with Paper Issues who have so much happening today. Each DT has set a challenge to get your mojo going. My challenge is....only use patterned paper (no block colours or background). Here is my take on the challenge and I have used Crate Paper Chasing Dreams collection (which is available in store) and the cut file (mega fringed heart) is also available in the Paper Issues store and it is FREE!

Here are the links to the Paper Issues blog and store: Have a wonderful NSD and I can't wait to see what you all create!
