My Fabulous Baker Boys

The boys went out with Darren's dad for a father son night at the Men's Shed, and they made fruit bread... which was sooooo delish!!

I have used the smaller of the Garden Frame Set, such a versatile frame!!

It has been painted and inked and painted again... lots of layers to get the tones just right.

Other products used: K&Co Ancestry PP, My Minds Eye PP, Tim Holtz Kraft Resist PP, Prima Notecard, Tim Holtz Stickers, Rebecca Sower Nostalgiques Sticker, Tim Holtz Tape, Time Holtz Swivel Chain, Prima Trim, October Afternoon Alpha Stickers and Jillibean Corrugated Alphas.

Take care of you.

I adore this photo of my hubby!!

I have kept this simple and let the stunning Garden Frame DA0606 do all the decorative work!

The chipboard was painted with warm white & oyster pearl paint, then dabbed with Tim Holtz Weathered Wood & Wild Honey Distress Stains, then coated with UTEE, while the UTEE was still liquid some Martha Stewart Micro Beads were sprinkled randomly.

I have used Authentique papers, Kaiser Transparency, Rebecca Sower Nostalgiques Sticker, Tim Holtz Sticker and a Tim Holtz Key.

Take care of you.

My hubby... this was taken at our favourite restaurant on our Anniversary.

I have used Damask #2 DA0557 and Fancy Trim #4 DA0470. They were both painted then stained with Tim Holtz Distress Stains, then dabbed with some Adirondack Gold Paint and coated with Tim Holtz Crackle. The word was embossed using my new most loved ChipArt Font/Tool by Melody Ross for GCD... I love love love this little tool!!

Papers are from Kaiser, Cardstock from Core-dinations, Pocket by G45, Bling by Zva, Label Holder by Tim Holtz, Crochet Trim from Creative Bits on Etsy, Crown by 7 Gypsies, Stamp Stickers by Rebecca Sower and the cute button is from JennyB's stash!

Take care of you.

The Lads... & Dad

Seems I really take my time updating my blog with my work!   These ones I did weeks ago, just forgot to share!!

Mum gave me these old pics of dad... I loved them.

Dusty Attic Hinges and new Damask were just perfect for this one!  So love that new Damask, it's one of those generic ones that can work well for any kind of layout! 

This one here... dad is the 2nd from the right and he's only 14yo!  Spinning me out, my son is 14 and looks nowhere near as grown up!!

 

Cogs have become one of my favourite embellishments, as you've likely noticed!  And twirled, entwined ribbons... with all the embies clustered through them... such fun to create!

I have journaling to add to these one day... once I get the story behind the photos down properly, but for now I just enjoy looking at them!

Take care of you.
