Be Inspiring

Hey loves happy happy Sunday! What a beautiful day today!! I promised you more projects with the Scraps Of Elegance April Kit, and I am here to deliver! I made a couple cards! Here's the first one;





You can't really tell in the pix, but it's got more sparkle than you can shake a stick at! I loved playing with this collection because it has vintage dressforms in it, and they are so fun to dress up!

And for my next trick; 



I made this for my mama, she is such a worrier I am always telling her to be happy! Hope she likes it ;)

So that's all for now. Have a beautiful evening peeps, thank you so much for stopping by!

Scraps Of Elegance April Kit Reveal = Possibility!

Hey hi! I am here with you today to share the new Scraps Of Elegance April Kit! It is called Possibility;

I'd say that's a really good name for it, being that it is absolutely full of gorgeous products!! It's got the new line by BoBunny, called Cest La Vie. Also some beautiful Petaloo flowers, butterflies by Renea Bouquet, etc etc. Lots of possibility to make some beautiful creations!!

I have 2 layouts for you today, the first one is based off of the sketch for the kit;

Isn't that super fun?! Here's my take, a little different.


I fell in love with this big dress form on one of the patterned papers, so I had to cut it out and dress her up! So pretty. Also, the kit has some gorgeous purple velvet paper, so I used my new bow tie die and made a little velvet bow. Sooo girly! This is a picture of my niece and I at my bros wedding shower. Isn't she a doll? I just love when girls wear dresses! Also the kit had an awesome new stencil by Prima in it, so I used that with the purple Glimmer Mist in the kit and added some interest to the background that way.




Now, being a mama of 2 amazing little boys, I have become pretty good at making boy pages out of just about anything lol! This kit is so pretty, but it does have some really cute striped paper which I love love loved, so here is what I came up with;


My son Beeb has this light about him, this zest for life that I cherish so in him. Every little thing is an adventure to him! Such an awesome way to live! This picture just tugs at my heart, he is in pure bliss. Hence why I chose this awesome quote by Bob Marley.



Another awesome stencil by Prima!! I adore rain, so when I saw this stencil I was like Oh yeah come to mama!



This raindrops came from another awesome stencil by Prima! I just love the rain ;) Makes for one bumpy page lol! 

I hope you'll go check out the other DTs blogs for some incredible inspiration, also there is a feature on us at the BoBunny blog too! Super exciting! So go grab yourself a cup of java and enjoy! Stop back here soon for some more projects made with Possibility..

Love, Rah

Scraps Of Elegance March Kit Round 2!!

Hey there happy Sunday!! What a beautiful day!! I am so loving the daylight staying around here a little longer each day. I cannot wait until I can sit on my front porch again, out in the fresh air, sipping my hot coffee! Ahhh, simple pleasures. Also, I'm reeallly gettin the gardening bug! Especially with this months kit from Scraps Of Elegance! I promised you some more projects, and today I am going to deliver. I have a layout and a card wootwoot!
First off, a kit from Scraps Of Elegance always comes with a fun sketch, so we'll start with that one. Here is the sketch;

                           

Isn't it beautiful?! Here is what I came up with!

 
 
This is a picture of my grandpa on my dads side as a young lad, Charlie. Not sure who the girl is, but I love the stripes on her dress, that's why I chose this green striped paper. Kinda matches lol!




 
This line by Graphic 45 is sooo beautiful! I love anything garden related, it makes me happy!
For my next trick, I made another card with the kit. Green and purple is stunning together, don't you think?
 


 
I took one of the beautiful Prima vines in the kit, and applied a coat of Amethyst Color Shine to go with my purple theme I had going. I softened the flowers with some gesso and it turned out quite pretty ;)
 
If you have spring fever and cannot WAIT to get out and play in the dirt, this beautiful kit will defenitely help!
 
Have a creative day and thank you for stopping by loves!
 
xoxo Rah

Scraps Of Elegance March Reveal!!

Good day!! Spring is finally upon us (THANK THE LORD.) and it's time for another reveal from Scraps Of Elegance Kit Club woohoo!!

                          
And here is the amazingly beautiful kit;

 
This kit is so beautiful, it was like a breath of fresh spring air. There are so many gorgeous products in it, such as Prima, Graphic 45, etc! I had to do a springy layout of course, I've been looking at this picture of my son from a few years back during a highly intense easter egg hunt...
 
 
 
I mean, this kid means business. He is on a mission.
 
 
Oh my gosh I just wanna bite his cheeks!! And look at those feet! You can tell he is springin into action, he's got a plan...
 


 
This kit is full of beautiful springy colors, and lately Ive been a little obsessed with the peachys and the corals. I just love them!! Also it has these awesome Prima letters that you can alter yourself, so I chose to use some Peach Color Shine by Heidi Swapp.
 
For my next trick, I want to share a spring card, perfect to brighten someones day!
 
 
 

 
I love daisies, they make me think of Disney's Alice In Wonderland where she's rolling around in them ;) I try to do that on a daily basis ha!
 
I will be back later to show you this fabulous sketch that was created just for the kit!! Until then please stop by the other team members blogs to see their amazing projects!! Thanks for stoppin by!
 
Love, Rah
