Authentique - Accomplished Collection


How quickly time flies when you get lost in being a Woman and all the different hats that come along with it, Mom, Wife, Chef, Gardener, Interior Decorator, .......and the list goes on, never mind your actual career! Needless to say, I have yet again lost track of time but here I am to share Authentique's Accomplished Collection!

This collection was launched late last year and I 'fell in love' with it's boldness,substance and timeless essence. My personal stash of this range is about 80 sheets, it is so versatile.  I have used it for cards, gift bags, gift boxes, Heritage, Family, Birthday and Graduation Scrapbooking and just wanted to share above and below some of the things that I created.

I hope that you will be inspired by this and if you would like to get your hands on this range, please visit my website: 'Kits Online' and take a peak under 'Paper Collections', where you will find some stash! http://www.kitsonline.co.za

Until next time xoxo

Throw Back Thursday!

 TBT! and that it is as June 2015 is around the corner and my younger (not so young anymore) son is off to his 5th Surf Camp as Photographer/Chef.  Surf Camp is a time away where young people get to surf, hangout, form new friendships,enjoy sports, laughs and late fireside nights all whilst sharing the Word of God and taking in the Beauty of His Creation.

This is a layout that I completed quite a while ago, but it remains one of my favourite sketches. All you need are 12 photos, a border punch, a paper collection that works well together, a ruler to ensure that your two rows of photos are straight and you can get lost in your creativity as you mat and embellish each photo.




I used the 'Graphically Speaking' Cricut Cartridge to cut the waves at the top of the page but this sketch could be used for any theme.  All you would need to do is style it accordingly, but the sketch would remain the same. See the picture below for some of the detailed matting etc.



Until next week xoxo
