Cherished treasures mixed media canvas by Yvonne Yam


Hello there! It's Yvonne. I don't know about you but I'm always looking for standout embellishments for my mixed media canvas. I love the blue ribbon bloom from the Purple Pumpkin store and used it as the inspiration embellishment to pull the rest of the elements together.


The Purple Pumpkin store is regularly updated with new products so don't forget to check it out...you might just find something special for your next project!

For closeup and more details on this mixed media canvas, please read this post.

"Put on a show" - by Arnlaug Koppang

Hi!

Back again to show you my take on the latest scrap365 challenge at CSI. The case file is closed now, but there are lots of inspiration to be found:-)

I've made a mixed media layout this time. First I glued down lots of scraps, paper flowers and chipboard and then I painted over them. After that I sprayed lots of different mists on and got this great background. To finish it of I embellished the page with small dots and the big, bright Purple Pumpkin buttons:-)







Thanks for looking:-)

Love You - Monique Liedtke

Hi everyone! It's Monique today sharing yet another layout featuring my daughter.


I created this layout with a papercrafting kit from Jenni Bowlin and a digital cutting file from Amanda Robinson Studio. I LOVE that so many of Purple Pumpkin's embellishments fit my pages! Take for example the crochet doily and the black spotty fabric button I used on this layout. I love them so much, I could easily use them on every layout I create! 


Hope you liked my page and that I've inspired you to do some scrapping today!

Thank you so much for stopping by!
Hugs,

Monique

Cold Winters Day....

Today is rather cold here in Tumut.

Its a big weekend here with our annual festival which the girls participated in and enjoyed.
Now I'm organising my eldest to attend a camp for band - a week she will be away. Mind you, she is my quietest child. So give me strength for the rest of the week peoples....LOL!!

Todays share is a layout I completed for STUCK. I finished my DT stint last month but just LOVE Laura's sketches, so I knew I would continue to complete her sketches when I find the time.


Here are a few close ups:


Have you checked out our monthly sketch???

Its a fun one. I loved having a play around with this one....

Hope you can find the time and join in too this month.

Bye
Kylie
