The Fairy in My Garden Layout

My turn for my Scrapping Sunday spot over at The Stamp Spot has rolled around again, they never seem to come fast enough for me, I am loving creating layouts to share with you lovely The Stamp Spot followers.
Here is my layout for this fortnight............

 I have used Prima stitched mulberry paper as the base for my photo of Jodie in the garden in her fairy outfit. I touched up the photo in photoshop quite a bit using some different layers and also I layered the same photo on top of the original and moved it slightly off so it gives the image a dreamy fuzzy look, perfect for fairies :)

 Here is a close up of the stamps, which are also prima and also the ruby rocket rose ribbon which has been sprayed with mist to colour it to match the layout.

 And lastly a close up of my photo and the stitching on the paper.

I have used all TSS April Spots on this layout, can you spot them?   See if you can and leave a comment with your answer in the comments.

Artfull Crafts - A Rather Sweet OTP

Hi, my project for Artfull crafts for this week is a cute little house decorated with the gorgeous Kaisercraft Fine & Sunny Collection.  The house is a chipboard kitset which was sent to me by Trace ( my partner in crime over at Southern Girls Challenge).  I had lots of fun picking which embellishments and papers to use on this project as there are loads of cute ones in the collection.

 Here is the front of my house, the walls and roof are both from one piece of 12x12 RAINBOW paper.  I have added a sticker border along the bottom, stamped a pennant border from the fine & sunny stampset onto a paper from the 6.5 x 6.5 paper pad which is where the paper came from to make the flag.  The sun/clouds and the bird are from the layered chipboard pack.  The windows and doors?  Well I am sure they would look loads better if I had taken tech drawing at school.

 This is my side view, not very interesting, so we will move on to the next pic..........

This is the back of the house, but totally cute to boot! I used stickers to cover the yukky brown back of the layered Chipboard sun on the roof and also the apple tree is a sticker.  Again the stamped pennants and layered chipboard birdhouse and bird.

So that is it, a cute little project to sit on shelf in a childs room as a cute decoration.

Digital Tuesday Challenge - Distressing

This week over at Digital Tuesday Challenge we would like to see distressing on your projects. Our sponsor is Bugaboo which is where this image I used came from..........

I have coloured the image with prisma pencils and blended with OMS.  The papers are Kaisercraft "Fine & Sunny" from the 6.5 x 6.5 pad, I have distressed the edges of my paper layers then inked with brown ink and a foam blender.

Please pop by DTC and check out the rest of the teams projects and join in with our challenge.
