It's a Lift!

Hello lovely people!!

This is a scheduled post, so as you read this, I'll be either splashing around at the beach on the Sunshine Coast, or laid back at the day spa... probably snoring!  lol  

Anyway, back to business.  It is my turn to pick a layout from the Boxx Gallery ... and shamelessly lift it!  I couldn't go past this stunning page by the gorgeous and super talented, Heather Jacob.  I just love the white on white with a touch of cream and golden tones.  I've wanted to do something like this for ages and this gave me the perfect opportunity.  I also loved the layered strips of punched paper and the white chippy element on white cs... and of course the stitching (duh)  :)

Thanks for popping by... try not to think of me sipping mai tai's by the pool!  hehee

See you soon,

Jules

December Boxx of Scraps

This Boxx of Scraps is a bittersweet one for me - sweet because it was such fun to design and create with. A little sad that it will be my last kit with Scrapboxx as I have resigned from the design team after two fun-filled years.

This kit has a really vibrant and cheerful Summer vibe, with flowers, clouds and fluttering creatures galore! I had such fun playing with it. Instructions for this first layout 'Garden Girl' will be uploaded to the Boxx of Scraps group shortly.

 

December Book Of You

Hello Again... :)

Back with my final installment of the Book of You Kits....
The December Book of You is all about "The Things I Love About Christmas".

For me, Christmas means simply, spending time with my special people and really cherishing those everyday moments and taking the time to focus on the fundamentally important things... like just giving your children the gift of your time and attention. Only then can we really appreciate these special moments that might otherwise go un-noticed.

My first layout is all about a photo I took of my eldest son on Christmas Day this year. He’s a very active little man and just doesn’t stop from the moment his eyes open in the morning, until bed-time. It was nice to watch him find things to do on Christmas Day when we were camping at our local camping spot, especially in such a lovely tranquil setting.

My second layout is all about my youngest son. He gets away with soooo much more than his brother and sisters ever did at the same age.... even chocolate before breakfast on Christmas Day! I just adore the ‘and what are you going to do about it’ look on his face... although I know I shouldn’t! :)

Tutorials for these layouts are available to kit subscribers in the BOY Kit Group over at The Boxx.

It's now time for me to pass the BOY Kit on to Gina.  I'm absolutely certain you will love what Gina has in store.... :)


Cheers for now,
