My family

 

I have scraplifted this page from one of  my friend Fi's pages.   It is not as detailed as her page, but the basics are there.  I've used a TCW stencil  in the background,  Basic Grey for the photo mat. Circle is cut from Teresa Collins Summer Stories range.  Prima flowers, and fussy cut flowers from Basic Grey paper and white flowers are cut from paper that has been embossed with an embossing folder.  Frame is hand cut, and I've also used a transparency over the photo.  Bird cage is stamped, and leaves cut with Memory Box die cut.  Photo of myself and siblings at a family reunion.

 

 

 

So Cute

 

Border is torn washi tape.  I've used a template and texture paste coloured with Tattered Angels Glimmer mist 'Turquoise Blue' and Tim Holtz 'Splatters' template and Gelato to colour the yellow circle.  Circles cut from Basic Grey 'Boy Crazy' range and orange splatters Colour Bloom 'Tangerine'
Thanks for looking

Prima Bedtime Story Collection 'Mother Goose' paper for the background, and figures cut from 'Bedtime Story'.  I've hand stitched the circles, and the 'moon' circle is cut using a Craftables die.  I've used Gelato 'Red cherry' to do the crossed vertical/horizontal lines.  The stars are cut from MME Boy Crazy range and edged with Kindyglitz.  The small stars are also from the Prima Bedtime Story range.

 

 

 

 

Happy Times

 

 

I believe that I have used all the colours.  On the background I have used a variety of stamps and stamped words around the border.  To simulate drops of water I've used a combo of a sequin and some old crystal stickers.   The banner is cut using Joy Craft party flags die. Around the edge of the pool I've used some pebbles.

Friends Forever

 

 

Background misted with Color Bloom 'Tangerine' spray mist and I've used various stamps randomly.  The lattice hearts cut with Martha Stewart punch, and lattice background piece with Tim Holtz die.  Border piece cut with EK punch and scroll with Paper artists die.  Flowers are by Imaginesce.  Based on Sketchabilities No. 113.

Photos were taken circa 1958 when I holidayed at my college friends place in western Queensland.  They grew tobacco then.   Sadly I have lost touch with her but the memories of our friendship will last forever.
