Kaisercraft Cherry Blossom papers

I have splashed out on some pretty papers with some of the Pre Christmas sales that were on. Now that the crazy Christmas days are behind me I can sit down and play.

And now for something completely different. I really loved these Kaisercraft papers. A card for my brothers birthday

Scrapbook Mixed Media Canvas Blue and Teal

I'm still relatively new to creating mixed media projects but I was very inspired to do something lovely for my beautiful mum. This photo of us was taken 4 years ago - before CRPS when life was going to begin at 40 not end at 41. Life was filled with new opportunities. I love this photo and my mum loves Blue.

It's funny what I originally imagined was mainly pale blue and white but  I mistakenly coloured the chipboard first and it was electric blue so I had to re-think the colours (and then re-colored the chipboard black as the chipboard got lost in the background  then) I am really pleased with how it looks considering I taught myself from YouTube  videos :). I used my favorite Lindys Stamp Gang Starburst mists but I did find this canvas isn't shimmering quite as much as my CRPS ribbon canvas I made with black, yellow and orange. I am in love with the combinations of blue and teal at the moment. I find it so calming.

Merry Christmas Mumma xx you are the best
