Altered Kaiser Bin






I have decided to do some altering as my MOJO for layouts is down at the moment.  Nadhrah has passed me this bin to alter a LONG LONG time ago and I finally picked it up and finished it today!  My sincere apologies to Nadhrah for taking so long to finish this.  I was very pleased that I have tried to do it.  It may not be incredibly beautiful but at least I have tried my hand at altering.

Materials used:
Collage Press pp,  sticker alphas and die cuts,  Modge Podge,  Brown Acrylic Paint,  Kaiser bin from ScrappingGlitz,  local lace trim,  Grosgrain ribbon from Nadhrah,  Chipboard shapes from Tattered Angels,  Thickers Foam Alphas and loads of 3d pop up dots.

Bearybox Sketch no 29




I have feeling spent - not been able to scrap and I took a break all because of this layout.  I really felt that this layout is totally unacceptable and I was stuck with it.  God knows why cos it was such a simple layout but I just could not scrap it.  At last - I am leaving it alone.  Took the sketch from Bearybox as usual.

Material used:

Scenic Route pp,  Hambly tranparency,  Making Memories Sticker sayings and glitter alphas,  Lime Ricky Stickers,  Prima crystl stickers, Thickers Fabric Stickers and 3D pop up dots.

Layout - Treasure







Just went through my stash of photos and discovered another duplicate of this photo and decided to play with the Websters Pages paper which I bought from ScrappingChix.  I have never done a "real" shabby chic page and this is my attempt at it.

I just scrapped it simple and just wanting Clarissa to know that treasuring each and individual family  and friend that you meet along the way is the most important.  The material things in life is just part of life and should not be vested in.
