Chit Chat News August 2021

 Good Morning Chit Chatters.

How are you all dealing with this pandemic? 

I've got to say there are days that I struggle, especially when lockdowns occur and my business is not classed as essential. WHO SAID CRAFTING ISN'T ESSENTIAL?? I KNOW ITS ESSENTIAL FOR MY MENTAL HEALTH. WHO'S WITH ME??

So when the worry and stress kick in

and then there are days that I am so grateful that I live in this gorgeous place, Perth

Western Australia I call home and I get to do what I love. 

Day by Day - Mintay

 Day by Day Together.

Hello There Chit Chatters

We all love Mintay Papers but often they are so stunning that

sometimes we dont know what to do with them,

so the Craft on the Run Design Team is here to help with how they

approach these collections so you have the confidence to use these papers.

As an added bonus and to encourage you to play along and give these tutorials a go

we are doing a Mintay Giveaway...

Create a project based on any of the tutorials and

share in the group/album telling us which tutorial you used

and you go in the draw to win some stunning Mintay Papers.

Your creations must be based on the Design Team tutorials.

And you must use any Mintay Collections

What do you think?

She will be sharing their designs and inspirations with us over the next 6 months.

I would like to congratulate her and say

Happy New Year & Farewell to Kylie & Rachel.

 Good Afternoon Chit Chatters

Can I firstly start by saying I hope you all had a wonderful New Year and that it has been a little better than mine.

I decided to take a little break to Queensland , which was great.

I caught up with my best friend and we went and checked out some of the places along the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.

I got to visit the Bundaberg Factory - one of my bucket list items ticked off.

Let It Snow

Hello

Today I am sharing my project for Scrapmatts December DT.

Wow I can't believe it's already the end of the year.

This is my Let it Snow page, that I have put into a frame to create a beautiful Christmas gift using 

Scrapmatts chipboard to embellish.

         

For this project I have used the stunning papers & collectables from Kaisercraft called  'Let it Snow'.

They are foiled and in a gorgeous mint green colour.

It's Your Day Workshop Cog Cards

It's Your Day Workshop Cog Cards

Welcome to my DT share with you all today.

It's Your Day Workshop Cog Cards.

This month has gone past so quickly but I also look forward to the first week of August 

as I get to attend the WA Craft Show and share the stand with Sophie, Andrew and the very talented Rikki G.

I also get to take home some new goodies and play.

I have spent the last week recouping from a cold and just taking some time for myself.

So here are my set of 3 cards I created with some of the new chipboard from Scrapmatts.

Papers used are from the new Kaisercraft Workshop paper pad.

I have coloured the chipboard with the gorgeous new metallic waxes from Finnabair.

I have inked some of the chipboard with Versa Pinecone.

Fun in the Sun with Scrapmatts - DT June

 Fun in the Sun with Scrapmatts

Greetings fellow creative peeps. 

Welcome to a very wet and miserable day here in Perth. 

Great time for scrapbooking.

I have been super busy over the last month organising my first ever Scrapbooking Retreat.

It hasn't left me much time to be creative.

These layouts were the only pages I managed over the weekend.

They are quite minimal but they do showcase the Scrapmatts chipboard.

So here are my efforts this month for you.

First one is called 

Fun in the Sun.

Hello Pretty Boy - Believe in Your Dreams

Hello Pretty Boy

Welcome Everyone

Today I want to share with you my recent layouts using the fantastic 

Scrapmatts chipboard.

The first one is a male themed layout using the gorgeous papers You Rock from 

Cocoa Vanilla.

I just love this range.

The Magic of Oz

The Magic of Oz

Welcome to the month were
 some of us like to celebrate all things Halloween!!
This is my layout featuring the Magic of Oz papers from Graphic 45.
I would like to share with you a layout I have completed this month featuring my gorgeous niece Rochelle.

A couple of years ago she went as Dorothy for the Wizard of Oz for book week.
So these papers were just the right fit for this photo.

Fairy Floss Pink Hair!!! October Challenge

Fairy Floss Pink Hair

October Challenge

     

This layout was inspired by my daughters new hair colour.

She has been red for some time now and recently decided to change the colour to resemble fairy floss.

Ho Ho Holy Christmas - Scrapmatts DT

Hello again. 

I hope we all got through Christmas and the New Year.

I wanted to share with you my projects that I worked on for Scrapmatts just before Christmas.

The month was really busy with work, Christmas parties, appointments, market stalls that I didn't have much time to create. 

So it was nice to finally get into my craft space and design.

The first of my projects I would like to share with you is a mini clipboard.

I started by covering with Christmas paper. I think from memory this is a Simple Stories range.

 It's been in my Christmas stash for some time.

Christmas Birdhouse Decoration & Layout

Welcome to another cold and wet day here in the West.

I am so over this cold weather and I am really looking forward to Summer.

I'm here with you today sharing my latest projects for Scrapmatts Design Team.

**************************************

The first is an off the page project.

I found this little birdhouse at my local Spotlight store and thought it would make a fantastic addition to my Christmas Decorations.

I started by covering it with some Kaisercraft Silver Bells paper but you could just leave it plain if you like.

Turn a paper bag into a Gift Bag

Hi 

Today I wanted to share with you a very quick , easy and simple project.

How to turn a paper bag into a gift bag.

On Stage - Bon Jovi

 Hi All

How are you? I hope you are all doing well. It's cold and wet in my little part of the world today. I really am not a fan of the cold weather. 

Well I'm back again to share with you my latest designs using the On Stage Collection from Kaisercraft. 

Grand Canyon - Bo Bunny Souvenir

 Good Morning/Evening All

I thought I would share one of my latest design team projects for Made with Memories. 

One of my favourite scrapbooking companies is Bo Bunny. 

I love their products and designs. So this range was no exception.

This is the Souvenir Range

 This page was inspired by a design I seen on Pinterest.

I loved the Noteworthy pack and the chipboard embellishments.

I also included my ticket stubs from the Grand Canyon tour.

 With this page I had a large photo that I wanted to use to showcase the scenery of the Grand Canyon.

It worked well with the paper range.

I love to cluster my embellishments and use as many as I can on my layouts to minimise my leftover stash.
