As soon as I saw this mood board I just knew that I wanted to use Pink Paislee's London Market collection that I have had stashed away for ages waiting for the perfect layout to use it on.. the soft vintage feel made me think of this gorgeous photo of my little niece and the combination was perfect.</div>

I am here today to share with you this beach inspired mask I made for a masquerade cocktail party I went to as part of the final day celebrations on the Workshop Wonders on Water Cruise I recently had the pleasure of attending.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We had 9 amazing days of fun.... we did classes with 4 amazing teachers... had time to just be creative.... and.... visited some of the most beautiful locations in the South Pacific.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the mask</div>

Hello hello</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have popped by today to share my latest creation.... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love my flowers and I don't usually create a page without them and for this reason I really don't scrap Donte enough... so this page is very different for me...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lovely Tracy Kielty from <a href="http://www.my2angels.net/" target="_blank">My 2 Angels</a> was holding a retreat, she was collecting ring pulls from drink cans sold at the retreat to help raise money for mobility equipment for my precious little man. Donte has a very rare brain condition called Holoprosencephaly and also has CP which has affected his ability to walk unassisted. This photo was the one she asked me to use for the flyer... which inspired me to actually use it... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Donte has such an amazing smile and is cheeky to boot..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I purchased this mason jar wall plaque from one of my local discount stores. It was very plain which meant I was able to alter everything and make this beautiful decor piece for my craft room.</div>

I wanted to add a little something extra and when I saw the new <a href="http://prima.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451cc5c69e201b7c7a7bd92970b-popup" target="_blank">Lumies</a> coming from Prima I thought they would be the perfect addition.... But unfortunately they are not available yet</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sooooo I borrowed a set of fairy lights from my daughters bedroom in the meantime until I can get my hands on some Lumies..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this is how it looks with the lights dimmed and the fairy lights on</div>

I have created a mini album using the very rad, Boys Rule collection from Crate Paper</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
'A Story of a Boy'</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This super cute mini will contain photos and the story of my little man, and how he has defied the odds he was given to grow into a very sweet little dude.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I have not added photos to this yet)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The pages</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Each page has a pocket that contains a file folder to hold even more photos and information, as well as a fold out flap... this mini will hold a ton of photos.</div>

I know, I know its March already and I have not done anything since before Christmas which is a horrible feeling.<br />
I have spent the past few months in and out of hospital and then finally having surgery I am now a whole lot better. anyway enough about that I have managed to be creative.<br />
<br />
I really love using everyday items in my work and when I discovered one of my Mums old lace curtains in the back of the linen cupboard I was super excited with my find. It really wasn't hard to work out what I wanted to do.<br />
so here it is.....<br />
<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">Here I have used a 8" x 10" Canvas and sprayed it with <a href="http://www.lindystampgang.com/" target="_blank">LSG</a> C'est La Vie Cerise. Once the colour was dry I then sponged <a href="http://www.primamarketinginc.com/" target="_blank">Prima</a> Art Basics Heavy Gesso (White) around the edges and softly in towards the middle to add a dreamy sort of feel. To add the lace I gave the whole canvas a coat of Prima Art Basics Soft Matte Gel and then lay the lace over the top. I wanted the lace to still look very soft and delicate so I just made sure there was a nice coat of gel on the canvas so I did not need to seal the top of the lace. once dry I added my photo and pretties.</span></div>

Hi There Guys,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am super excited to share this project with you today.... I had an absolute blast making it...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I created this little 8x10 canvas suitcase from 3 narrow frame canvases (cutting the canvas out of one). The mini is made from paper bags it consists of 4 pages and it fits perfectly inside the suitcase.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have added magnets to the back of the album and the base of the suitcase to stop the album from moving around inside.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Good evening Scrappy People,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not exactly scrapbooking but I thought I would share anyway....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A dear friend of mine was renewing their marriage vows after being happily married for 30 years, and I offered to make her bouquet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was inspired by the things she loves and the wedding location to make this shabby chic beach themed bouquet.</div>

This bouquet really took some work but it was so worth it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All the flowers are completely handmade with real shells and vintage style brooches to give it that real shabby chic look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The burlap roses were made using Prima's Burlap sheets, the carnations were made with torn strips of chiffon and the teal roses were made with satin ribbon. I had some tiny shells in my stash and these fitted in perfectly with a few pearls here and there. </div>

Hi again</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am here to share another class I have created for <a href="http://www.thescrapcottage.com.au/" target="_blank">The Scrap Cottage</a>, this time I have made a mixed media canvas with a feminine or masculine version to choose from. I really do love getting messy with mixed media and these canvases were so much fun to create :)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have popped in today to share a layout with you.<br />
I was inspired by Frank Garcia to create this paper burst layout.... The effect this gives is stunning and the My Mind's Eye Find Your Wings and Fly collection along with beautiful Prima flowers take this layout to another level. Not my normal style there is not a drop of mixed media in it, but when I look at it I am so in love with the way it frames the stunning photo of my youngest daughter.<br />

Hi there everyone,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My all time favorite way to be creative is by altering items...So I am here to share my latest altered project</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I love music and I love guitars but I can not
play. So having a guitar sitting in the cupboard seemed pointless, This
inspired me to do something with it and create an altered project to show my
love of both music and scrapping. Mind you I did have to fight my baby bro for it but of course I won.... or maybe he just loves me.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have used Prima's Lyric collection which I thought was very fitting for this project.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">(Tip: When creating an altered project of this size it
is best to choose papers that have a continuous pattern for ease in making
seamless joins between them.)</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 16.866666793823242px;">There are lots of beautiful Prima flowers and trinkets on this guitar along with Maya Road burlap pennants, seam binding ribbon, Out There Chippy and TSC trinkets </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 16.866666793823242px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 16.866666793823242px;">I hope this inspires you to find an item that's just a little bit different and alter it</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 16.866666793823242px;">Happy Scrappin</span></div>

I have another collage canvas to share.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I absolutely loved make my last <a href="http://atrulybeautifulmess.blogspot.com.au/2013/10/mixed-media-collage-canvas.html" target="_blank">collage canvas</a> that I couldn't help but make another and I am sure there will be a few more to come at some stage. The background of this one was made with cardstock and cobweb paper torn into pieces again I have used lots of Prima trinkets and other nic nacs I had laying around</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have used Luminarte Silks along with black and white gesso to give the colour effect.</div>

The Burlap panels make for a fantastic background, I have added some extra interest to the background by masking a doily with Liquitex modeling paste and splattering some white Mister Huey's Mist<br />
<br />

<a href="http://www.thescrapcottage.com.au/" target="_blank">The Scrap Cottage</a> took part in the Crows Nest In Studio Art Trail this month where artist from all around the area opened up their studios to share their works of art.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a lovely display of scrapbooking and mixed media work, here is a layout I created as a kit for the art trail.</div>

I have used the Prima Divine collection to create this simple but pretty layout.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have mostly used the A4 paper pad, as you don't need a lot of 12 x 12 papers to create a layout.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are a few kits left over from the Art Trail you can find them <a href="http://www.thescrapcottage.com.au/collections/the-scrap-cottage-kits" target="_blank">here</a> if you are interested.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have used lots of Prima trinkets, along with other bits of junk I had laying around. The background was made with torn strips of muslin fabric and then I have used Luminatre Silks and black and white gesso to give the effects with colour.</div>

Hello... I am here today to share a Mixed Media Photo Journal that was created for a technique class at <a href="http://www.thescrapcottage.com.au/" target="_blank">The Scrap Cottage</a>, I made this journal back in April this year as a fortnightly class demonstrating different techniques throughout the pages. The ladies who attended this class loved it and took the techniques and began to incorporate them into their layouts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I used the Prima Mixed Media Journal, Fairy Rhymes collection, flowers and trinkets.)</div>
