Had a lovely time this weekend playing with some lovely  Prima goodness, the photos are of my DGD taken 3 years ago however I felt they matched the paper really well

also finished the A2Z sketch challenge for this month

I loved this pretty patterned paper by GCD studios
I am now tidying up my scrap room ... I'm off on holidays for 2 weeks .... heading north to visit with my daughter, her DH & the children. It promises to be a great time ....

I was delighted to be invited to be a guest designer on A2Z scraplets blog ....

I love using the variety of chipboard products & now there is an exciting release

....... vinyl transparent stickers!! 

 They are stickers similar toa rub-on when applied without having to "rub". 

They can be removed and repositioned initially but are permanent after a few minutes

also they are water proof & can be coloured in using Alcohol Pens/Sharpies, etc. There's 8 different sheets to choose from with more ideas coming out soon. 

Check them out here http://a2zscraplets.typepad.com 

here are my 2 LOs I completed as GDT 

I used the Princess Title coloured it with an inkpad & added some bling & also the butterflies

Here I used two of the fantastic flourishes & the 'Girls'  title, again I used an inkpad to shade the chipboard
