Sweetest Thing

Isn't this one BEAUTIFUL kit?.... It was a dream to work with. We all LOVED it.

Don't wait and grab yours while they are still in the Swirlydoos Store.

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

Today I'll only post, the main picture and 1 close up picture of each project.

Later this week I'll post more detailed pictures and tell a little more on the how to's.

Otherwise this would be a very long post and I know that you have got some blogs ahead of you.

 

Every month, Beggahuna draws up a sketch that goes with the kit, and this month she created this beauty:

 

And here's my take on it:

 

Enjoying Summer

 

Don't you just LOVE that beautiful coral colored Prima Serenity flower??

There's a full package of these beauties in the Main-kit as well as some lovely, Blue Fern chipboard birdcages.

The Prima wood frames came from last month's kit,

(that is how much products you get in these Swirlydoos kits, you always have something left.)

 

Dream 

This page needs a little explaining and credit giving!

We are waiting on the arrival of our first grandchild. He should have been here by now, but I guess he still likes it too much, inside his mommy. Anyway... I planned out this page, being SURE I could snap some beautiful baby fresh pictures.

NOT!!

So, I had to select some from the internet and found this beautiful picture posted by a man, named Josef Essberger. As soon as my DGS is born I'll replace this picture with his.

 

 

My next page I call for now:

Little toes

 Again this is a borrowed picture and it is by: peanutonthetable.com I just loved it.

As soon as my DGS is born I'll add his picture and name to this page.

 

I love these beautiful Prima Serenity flowers that came in the Main-kit and the papers.... they are so gorgeous.

They can be used for any project. Here are some cards I made:

 

The Main-kit this month is a real fussy cutter dream. Lots of darling images and I couldn't resist cutting them out.

 

 These little, Blue Fern birdcages are so cute and versatile. You can leave them blanc, spritz them to give them a little shimmer, (like I did here) or paint them, stamp them.... etc.etc.

 

On this one I used the Prima packaging for the base. With a little lace and a gorgeous Serenity flower, you can create such elegant cards.

So that's it from me so far. Check back later this week, for more details.

Create Memories

and some close up's:

These beautiful prima bling came in the Main kit as well as that gorgeous, antique gold, très trim.

I used a Prima Marketing stencil and used some regular structure paste. then on top I added some Viva Decor Modeling Paste, which has this gorgeous pearlescent look. I toned it a little down using the Viva Decor Paper Soft which came in the Mixed Medium AddOn.

OMW... Don't you just L O V E these Beautiful Prima flowers?!!!!
They came in the Main Kit... just saying

Well.... I was lost for words when I opened this kit. Beautiful papers, embellishments, trims and flowers. The Mixed Medium AddOn contained also this 12x12 script stencil.
 

Sassy 

 I wanted to keep this page simple, cause I was so in love with the embellies and trim, that I wanted to, just surround my picture with all this gorgeousness! I only did some stenciling in the background.

 These lovely, Prima Marketing wood embellies came also in the Main Kit.

 This is a Ingvild Bolme resisn piece that I hoarded for so long. I painted it with Gesso first and then added Metallic Distress Stain.

 Well, what can I say.... I think this picture says enough.

 Pure LOVE!!!!!

I just took this picture to show you what a marvelous effect you can get, when you add Viva Decor Metal Effect paint to some mulberry leaves.

 

This Moment
