Home from the Cruise

Well Jessie and Luke arrived home on Saturday from there Cruise, they had a fantastic time and they are now ENGAGED. Luke proposed to my daughter Jessie and even had the ring for her as well. He had been planning this for her for for at least 12 months.
I love this photo its a bit cheeky but you can see her ring.

And this has to be my favourite photo they had taken on the cruise the photographer made her pose with her hand and show of her new engagement ring.

Well I hope to be making engagement invites very soon so I will keep you posted.

Welcome officially to our family Luke and of course to Jessie's new in laws, Les Judy and Casey.

Cheers Shelley

Bon Voyage Card

My daughter Jessie and her boyfriend Luke are of on a Cruise tomorrow Saturday 22nd. This is her first Cruise but Luke's second. They leave from Brisbane Portside and head to Whitsunday's, Yorkey's Knob, Port Douglas, Willis Island then back to Brisbane on the 29th of January.
So I thought I would make them a card, it ended up being quite big but I wanted to make the Ship as big as I could.This is the front of the card I used Life is a Beach for everything except the Letters.

This is supposed to be Jessie and Luke waving goodbye

I used Lyrical Letters for all of the words.

Some Dolphins that they will hopefully get to see.

There very own Deck Chairs with there initials on them.

And this is supposed to be one of the Islands they will get to see.

I added some buttons by cutting the shank of the back so they fit flat, for the shells and the treasure.

Well its taken me some of last night and most of the day to make this one so I hope they like it.

Have a great time Jess and Luke.

Cheers Shelley

Bits and Pieces

I hadn't got around to sending some Christmas Cards to a couple of our Friends so I thought I would make them New Year Cards. This is what I came up with the help of one of my Cricut Cartridges Sweethearts and a Stamp that I have had for awhile and the oval Nestabilities.

I went into a bit of a production line to make them all up

I cant remember where I got the sparkly paper from but I have a few colours in it

My son Corey's girlfriend Ashley spent the day with me last week and this is what we made for her room, the bin is from Kaiser and the paper is Seaside Collection also from Kaiser.

I still have some stock left is you wish to purchase any.

I did help Ashley but she did a pretty good job herself.

I would have loved to have added Flowers and Bling but she liked it just as it is

Cheers Shelley

Cupcakes for Tereesa

Well as you may know it was Tereesa's birthday today, you can see the card and Cupcake that Tracey made her from Trace Elementz on her blog.
My daughter Jessie made her some delicious Cup Cakes that she can eat  for her as a Birthday Cake.
We thought she deserved a little spoiling for her birthday as she is back and forth every other day with Alyssa to the Hospital.

Here is the card that I made,

So hope you had a good day Tereesa and Big get well wishes for Alyssa.

Cheers Shelley

Scrapbooking Pages

Here are 4 more of my Christmas pages I have done over the last few days. I am really loving using the Kaiser products on these pages and just adding bits a pieces.

I used Cricut Cartridge Home Accents and Kaiser Embellishments, and Stamps and  some kindy Glitz

This one used the Spellbinders Nestabilities to actually cut the photo's out.

I used the Cricut Cartridge Rock Princess to get the Guitar for the Boys.

They both got electric Guitar's for Christmas.

Hope you enjoy looking

Cheers Shelley

Kaiser Scrapbook Pages

Can you believe I am a Kaiser Stockist and this is the first time I have used any Kaiser products in my Page layouts. So this is a first for me. I have used the Christmas Belle Collection and used my Cricut and Nestabilities to cut out the shapes. I have softened the edges of the Poinsettia's, with Creative Memories Chalking Ink.

I have got over 200 photo's from Christmas day to put into my Album so I have a lot of work ahead of me. I like to get a lot of photos onto the one page so hopefully I will only need one Album.

Cheers Shelley

Tanya's 40th Betty Boop Card

The internet is a beautiful thing when you have no stamps or cartridges to make the shape or picture you want. So I put in a search for Betty Boop images is this is what I came up with.

Karin and her Studio

I just had to show you my friend Karin's Studio. This is just the best place to create all sorts of crafty projects. As you can see Karin has a place for everything she is a very talented lady, I went to her place on Tuesday and she showed us how to make a couple of cards.

Here is Karin surrounded by cupboards, its set out like a kitchen,

This is on the other side of the room

The table goes right down the middle of the room

These drawers hold lots and lots of flowers embellishments and pens and paper and bling and anything else you can think of.

Her husband made these shelves for her stamps and I just love the way she has all of her ribbon hanging on the back of the door, she has lots more ribbon on spools in drawers. So guess what I have started to do with my ribbon?

This is from the other end of the room and with Denise in the picture as well.

Just thought I would show you what I am getting hopefully in the next week.

My New Spellbinders Grand Callibar.

Now I just have to buy the bigger dies to use in it.

Oh the life of a scrapbooker, cardmaker etc is never dull with all the gadgets we can buy.

Well hope you enjoy Karin's Studio as much as I did and will continue to do as I make Cards with her.

Cheers Shelley

This one is for Karin
