Filling in

Today was Lucy's turn on the blog but unfortunately Lucy has had to leave us, so I thought I would show you a couple of layout I did recently full of Memory Maze Goodies

When I saw this paper range from Bo Bunny called Isabella I knew if would be a great fit for me, I mean I have so many girls how could it not be.

"Bubble Fun"

Memory Maze chipboard frame, was first painted in gesso then sprayed with home made paint sprays in cream, grey & pink then coated in ranger crackle paint.

Memory Maze chipboard banner also treated the same as the frame but instead of the crackle I have drawn stitched on lines.

...................................................

"Cute But Dangerous"

This photo was taken while in a crowd of people at a Christmas carols show, little miss was spinning around as I caught the photo & the look on her face sums up this little cutie who keeps me on my toes every min of every day.

 Memory Maze title painted with distress stain then touches of gesso and crackle paint applied. 

Memory Maze Vine, this was part of a larger piece and has been painted in blue distress stain then had the tips done in  black and a little gesso to the edges.

Memory Maze butterfly used for the wings has been painted with gesso then touches of blue distress in and some black right on the edge, I've then added some micro beads.

I hope I have inspired you to get out some chipboard and have a play.

Remember to ask your local store to stock Memory Maze products so you don't miss out

Hello everyone, I hope your month has been as crafty as mine.   I have had a lot of delicious Memory Maze arrive to my place and I could not wait to play.

Family Hugs

My oldest boy William came to stay for a few nights last week, we had not seen him since New Years and it was wonderful to see him.

I had lots of fun dressing my MM chip board,  first I masked my frame with a mask and medium, and then I spent some time adding WOW Foil.  Once all foiled I added distress paint and ink

For the bike I added distress paint and metallic rub to give it that old feel.

These balloons are super cool, again I have coloured them with distress paint.

Sisters Forever

This is such an awesome frame and could be used in so many ways.  Today I am going to share how I used it as an Off the Page Project

I cut another frame out of scrap chipboard so I could use it as the base,  I covered it with pretty papers.  I painted the top of the frame with paint and added some stamping and mist.

Here you can see the MM chipboard, SISTERS,  I have repeated the process that I did to the frame

Added some flowers and stickers

and totally yummy Flourish with a bling to give it that ex factor :-)

Boy oh boy - we are already into the sixth month of the year. How it has sped through so fast? Time to start thinking about Taxes and perhaps getting an early layby on for Christmas??

I have four very different layouts to share with you this month, I am kind of an eclectic scrapper and my layouts always seem to have a mind of their own. So they all look so very different....but they do have one thing in common!!! They all have wonderfully delightful Memory Maze Chipboard on them.  

Happy

I really like how delicate this layout turned out and I love the soft colours and the effect that the chipboard took.

I applied a light layer of Faber Castell Gelatos to the Memory Maze Chipboard and then I lightly diluted it with a brush and water. For the title happy I applied the Gelatos in a very hap-hazard way as I didn't want to colour all of the word.

Using the three different Gelatos on the Memory Maze Chipboard I coloured the butterfly and the globe and then brushed over with water once again to get this lovely rainbow effect on the wings.

Just Horse'n Around

I love the flexibility of Memory Maze Chipboard, it is such a great quality product that you can use all sorts of medias on it or even cut pieces off to change the shape. I'll explain what I mean under the detailed photos.

On the Funky Banner I adhered different patterned papers and sanded them back a bit - I then outlined with a black marker to finish them off. I only wanted one bird on the banner so I used my craft knife to take the others off. I then used them as extra embellishments at the top right hand corner of the pink paper.

The quality and design of the cardboard is so great that you can not even tell that it has had pieces taken off. This horse used to be a Unicorn - it was a simple matter of snipping off the horn and inking....and tatda.... a horse.

 Natural Beauty

Memory Maze Chipboard, flowers and bling all go together so nicely.

Add some Glimmer Mist, a paper banner, flowers and bling and this fence is complete.

 These Dimensional Butterflies are my new favourite product - I am in love with how you can create a butterfly in many colours and layers to suit any layout or to match any colour scheme. For this one I used three four different Gelato colours - pink for the flat bottom layer, brown and yellow for the detailed top layer and green for the popped out circles, which I adhered to the butterfly to make the body. Such a fun chipboard to work with.....look out for this one being used in more of my layout reveals next month.

Not much to do to the Arch to get it to look great - a light coat of Glimmer Mist and it is done.

OMG - Rude chipboard!!!! Yeap that is right I have left my Memory Maze chipboard naked for this layout. The sea shell are so finely detailed that they look divine raw. See for yourself in the detailed photos below. 

 See the fine lines - no need to dress these babies up.

No better way to finish off a beach layout than with some stunning sea shells.
