Hello..

Hello there....

We are getting some rain here in Tumut...which we need to fill up all the dams around this area.
I have a few layouts to share with you today. Perfect weather for scrapping - hubby might not agree!!

First one I did for Show Us Your Stuff..


I have used my fav heart button and a crochet doiley which I have to order more off.. please remind me!! LOL


Next layout is for Scrapbooking Top50 Australia


How sweet do these fabric buttons look on my layout??
Great for summer....


and my final layout is a "Just Because " layout...


The wooden buttons are so natural and great mixing a bit of twine in the mix of things too...


Well I hope you have enjoyed looking through my creations.

Have you entered this months sketch challenge for May.. you still have time!!

Bye for now
Kylie

PROJECT LIFE with LIZZY HILL

Hi there! My monthly post on using Purple Pumpkin goodies on your PL projects:
I am REALLY enjoying using the PP chippy - raw - & discovered it's easy to cut & pop across TWO of the PL page pockets...so remember this if you think you haven't room for a word you want to use!
This button was PERFECT for chatting about what was going on at home this month! You'll notice I've squished the button up - they don't mind it at all. No harm done to fabric buttons was involved, LOL:):)
I really LOOOVE the 'original' spotty PP buttons. They're my 'all time' faves....that red heart washi is coming a close 2nd! And my whole page:
And my whole page. The colours in the photos were all over the show, but I've used that red hearts washi to sort of 'tie' the page together...
Thanks SOOO much for looking & happy scrapping ~ Lizzy ♥♥♥

A real princess by Monique Liedtke

The entire month of May Creative Scrappers is celebrating 6 years of Creating with Sketches and in honor of this they have designed 12 new sketches. I've chosen one of them and used it to create this page of my lovely niece. She's playing dress up and is wearing one of my daughter's dresses (from when she was 8 or 9 years old). 


Except for the "Little Princess" collection from Imaginisce I've used the beautiful pink crochet doily from the Purple Pumpkin store, some silver with stars washi tape and a bit of twine



For more fabulous Purple Pumpkin goodies please hop over to the store

Thanks for now and I wish you a happy scrappy day!

"And then she fell asleep.." - by Arnlaug Koppang

Hi again Purple Pumpkin fans! Today I want to show you a really easy and quick page.

I started out with the paint sample palette and put together a few items to go with it. The tag has the same colors as the palette. The bazzill is infact a light pink but on a grey, rainy day it's impossible to get a good photo..



On this page I've used a cute heart button and a beautiful crochet flower from the shop.


Thanks for looking:-)

Beautiful tag by Yvonne Yam


Hello there! It's Yvonne here to share a mixed media tag.


The background was created with a mix of modeling paste, glass bead gel and paint for an all-over iridescent shimmer.


Perfect for the showcase of the ballerina fabric button from the Purple Pumpkin store. There's always something in the Purple Pumpkin store that would make your project shine!

I heart Brussels - Monique Liedtke

I don't know about you, but I love to join in scrapbook challenges. This layout was created for a challenge where the main feature on my page had to be a circle. 


To accentuate the circles I embroidered and journaled around them and placed some flairs or Purple Pumpkin buttons in them, like this one with text


and this awesome spotty button top


Don't you just love them?! 
The photos were taken while we were in Brussels for a couple of days last February. 

Thanks for visiting Purple Pumpkin's blog and for taking a peek at my page!

A CAS page from Lizzy!

Hey there! Lizzy with you today to show you a Clean & Simple page I did for a recent CSI case file. And the star of the show is this LOVELY button, which just happened to be the 'perfect' colours:
And my whole page, starring Tom's Great Grand-daughter, who has been through a couple of rough years having treatment for her leukaemia...but she's through it all now....& this photo with her & her Dad during that time - the Winter [rather symbolic] - is just soo sweet:
Sometimes you don't need a pile of stuff to tell the story, right? For this YUMMY button & more, check out the PP store:):)
Happy Scrapping ♥♥♥
