Thankyou so much everyone for your lovely comments regarding my Scraproom, I think it looks like a Candy Store too lol !! and I just love it, and yes I am moving in LOL !!
I created this Door Plaque for my Pink Paislee Blog Post which was Wacky Wednesday, and I really loved how it turned out, the Collection was "Abbey Road" and it really is a stunnning collection, love all the red, just beautiful, I also used the yummy Expression Alphas, which are simply gorgeous, and to make all the frames, I used the left overs from my Pink Paislee Press out tags, which are so versatile.

The detail that you can create with these papers and all the embellishments is really lovely, and I love the swirls to the alphas.

Thankyou again for all your lovely comments, I really do appreciate each and everyone.

Have a wonderful day.

My Scrap Room

Ok so here it is my Scraproom, I am still pitching myself, it is finally finished. This is my work station well that is what Mike calls it, I have everything open, because I love to see everything, and I find I work better that way. I have an air conditioner, intercom, phone, TV on either side of the desk, and of course internet yipee. Before everything went into the shelves.

I had my gorgeous work station and my paper shelves made by a local cabinet maker here in Gladstone and his company name is KBL Installation "Kitchen, Bathroom and Laundry" Installation and Darren has done a wonderful job I just love it. My ceilings are really really high in my scraproom, so there is plenty of air and light, just love it. As you can see plenty of space to put all my boxes and projects.Here you can see that the desk has two sides it is equiped with the same things such as TV's, power and lighting and internet, there is also enough room in my scraproom for a small table in the middle if needed.Here is my cute shelf which sits under my larger shelving on my desk and as you can see it holds all my Kindy Glitz, Scrappers Floss and brads etc., all things small lol !!Now here you can see my wonderful, wonderful paper shelves I just love them they are unreal, couldn't ask for anything better, and just above the shelves is my Peg board which holds all my products, and I love it because I can see everything I own, and what I need when making a project.There is also a shelf which holds some of my projects and my jars etc., with buttons and brads and of course flowers.

Closer look at some of my Bo Bunny products, these are to die for !! what I love about my peg board is that I can fit all my rubons on one hook and so on........

Close up of some of my flowers and brads etc.,

I love my cake stand it holds all my Bo Bunny Stuck Up tins, such as flowers, buttons and brads, just too cute, and because the tins have a magnetic back, they hold really well onto the cake stand.

Here is my Shelf/Ribbon holder this is amazing I love it.

Close up

Stamps and paints.

Ribbons and flowers. More Flowers.

Well that is it, I will try to get some more photos soon, but that is pretty much it, and I couldn't be happier, Mike also tinted my windows to stop fading etc., of my products and projects, I hope you liked checking out my room, I am loving it lol !!

Take care.

Happy scrappin.

"Boo" with Pink Paislee

Well I love Halloween projects, so creating this "Boo" Project for Pink Paislee Blog using the Spooky "Twilight" Collection was just wonderful, I loved all the papers which I created embellishments such as trees and bats, and anything else I could think of.


I used a Block of wood for my base, and a large woodern letter "O" for the main feature as well as a small woodern "B" and "O" which I painted the edges black and covered with pattern paper, I also created a background which was attached to the woodern base.

I also used the "Twilight" Patches to create the cute little ghost.

and also added some Glitter Alphas.

I hope you have a wonderful Halloween, and plenty of goodies.

Karen Foster Project

Well finally, here is a set that I have just made with the new Karen Foster Design "Birthday Collection". There are plenty of cute bits and pieces about this collection, not only can you get the papers you can also buy the gorgeous stickers, stackable stickers, ribbon and Birthday Bubble Brads, all perfect for you Birthday projects.

Materials Used:

Blow Out the Candles Stickers

Birthday Stacked StickersCakewalk Pattern PaperLets Party Pattern PaperBirthday Birds Pattern Paper

Step 1

From the "Blow Out the Candles" Stickers I used the "Make A Wish" sticker, which I stuck onto cardstock and cut around, then just put aside.

I then cut out the birds and the Happy Birthday Banner from the "Birthday Birds" pattern paper and then put aside.

Step 2

I trim a red piece of Prism cardstock the 17 x 23cm and folded in the middle. I trimmed the bottom of the card with a piece of the "Cakewalk" pattern paper cakes, which I stuck to the bottom, I then cut out pieces of extra cakes and using some foam tape, layered them over the top of the same shaped cake, as you can see by the bottom photo.

I then trimmed the top of the card with a zig zag border, and using the "Happy Birthday" Banner which I cut out earlier stuck it to the card as shown in the bottom photo, and finished off with buttons and some Dimensional magic.

A close up of the birds and banner on the card.

Step 3

To create the bag, I cut a fancy top to the bag using a zig zag border, and I then cut out a red circle for the middle of the bag with Prism cardstock and embossed the card using my cuttlebug.

I covered the bag with the "Lets Party" pattern paper as shown in the top photo, and then added the circle and I also trimmed the top and bottom with Prism red cardstock.

I used the Birthday Stacker "Cake" Sticker for the centre of the bag, and finished off with the "Make A Wish" sticker which I trimmed earlier and then foam taped it onto the bottom of the stackable sticker.

I finished off with a couple of presents on the top right hand side of the "Make A Wish" Sticker.

Well that is it quick and quite easy to create Karen Foster Design party gift set, if you want to see more go and check out the Karen Foster Website.

Well a little more tomorrow.

A Little about me

I promise Karen Foster is coming very soon lol !! lets just say other things have got in the way this week, lots going on and I had to hold off.

Well, things are changing in my life more and more,Chaise is nearly 4, which is amazing, time has just flown by and I know I don't normally share these things on my blog, but I have been trying much harder to get a healthier balance in my life, and to share most of the time with my family, working out and of course scrapping, and there is no doubt I love to scrap, but I also love alot of other things in my life as well. I look around and more and more people are leaving the scrapping behind and are taking up new ventures, or just enjoy more time doing other things, which is just how it goes sometimes, OK, I am not doing this, it is part of me well .... for now, but things do change, and other interests come along.

I have been jogging now since late December last year and I am enjoying it more and more, I am going further and further, and finding I need more and more, and spending a lot more time on keeping myself healthy and happy. As a family we bought ourselves a Jet Ski, Yes a Jet Ski and we are loving it, I got my boat licence as well as my Jet Ski Licence just so I could enjoy the experience more and have fun with the family and just enjoy being outdoors.

So this is it now, more active, a lot more time out and about, but still enjoying what I love which is scrapping.

I have a couple of photos to share, just enjoying time in the sun, we are at Awonga Dam, a huge lake, and an absolutely gorgeous place to be. This is me and Sarah, yes she is driving.

Mike and Chaise, just havinga ball.

And yes, here is me, I just love it !!

I know a little bit weird for me lol, sharing so much about myself, but there you go !!

Some scrapping to show tomorrow, have a great weekend.

Carole xx

Hi everyone, Icreated a little something for the Bo Bunny Blog, Christmas in September, just getting you ready and organised!! There are some really great ideas over at the Bo Bunny Blog, so pop on over and check them out, and if you leave a comment you could win yourself some yummy "St Nick" products.
I created this clipboard book, from the back page of the Cascading Album and a cloth peg, lets face it, we don't always use the pages in our mini album, so it is great to keep them and create other ideas from them, I used "Tis The Season" Collection, very bright and really gorgeous colours. It is a reminder clipboard for all the things that I have to organise, especially my cardmaking hopefully lol !!
Oh BTW I haven't fogotten about my Karen Foster Project it will be up later today or early tomorrow as soon as I get it finished lol !!

Have a great day.

Pink Paislee Fun

I have some Pink Paislee to share with you today, I created this cute "Love" plaque for Scrapbook Creations magazine for August. I just love this photo of Sarah and Chaise together he was only about 4 or 5 months old in this photo. I used the "Spring Fling" Collection from Pink Paislee to create and embellish this project, and I loved the yummy "Spring Fling" Clear Stamps.

I created this next project for the Pink Paislee Blog, using the lovely and one of my fav collections "Cupid" I just love the colours to this collection and all the yummy tags and alphas are so gorgeous.

Well just a quick one today.

Karen Foster Designs

OK, this is my first post of Karen Foster Design Goodies. Well I have cheated with this post because these items where already created, but I just had to share these first as I absolutely love the New Baby Girl Line introduced at the beginning of this year, so very cute, it really is adorable to create with, so many embellishments ideas. I created "First Stages Baby Journal", a "Little Bag", and a "Card".

For these items I used the Karen Foster Design "Baby Girl" Collection:

Pattern Papers

Ribbon

Clearly Stickers
Stacker StickersLittle Princess Stickers

I will keep you guessing for next week but I will have a little step by step as well. I also used my yummy Cuttlebug to emboss the cardstock "Spots and Dots" embossing pad, and the lace punch was Fiskas Fancy Scallop Border, I also used my yummy chalks to enhance the edges to my projects.

You can find these set in the August issue of Stamping and Papercrafts.

Thanks heaps.

Oh I will have a little Pink Paislee to share tomorrow.
