Butterflies Galore

This week I'm doing the Designer Showcase at MyScrapbook Nook, focusing on repeated patterns.
I chose to focus on how to use the different butterflies featured in the March kit, and here is some examples I made for the class.




Pimp wooden butterflies with rubons!



Rub rubon butterflies to acetat to make your 3D embellishments!

Cut out butterflies from patterned paper and use the cut outs to wamp up your pages!

Cut out butterlies from patterned paper and put them on a string!

And here comes the fun part: Spend them all on one single page!

All materials from MyScrapbookNook march kit, featuring the MME Miss Caroline Collection
Layout title: Early spring? My lilacs on Sunday :-)

You find the entire article here - please visit to see examples from both me and forum members on how to use repeated patterns to make uniform looking layouts and cards.

What about you, do you like butterflies?
PS There are some Maya Road ones in this week's giveaway!

Tuesday Giveaway Winner + Nook Member Inspo Sketch

Hi!

Every month we do a Member Inspo Sketch Challenge at MyScrapbookNook: we pick out a member layout from the Nook Gallery, draw a sketch from it and challenge our readers to create a project inspired by the sketch.
As soon as the challenge is closed, the DT will pick a winner who gets the opportunity to guest design for the next month's sketch challenge.


For February we picked a layout by Scrapping_in_AK, and I drew this sketch from it:

Got to love my fancy drawing program *lol*

And here is my example for the challenge, using the fabolous February kit featering the OA Sasparilla Collection. What a fun collection to work with - I just love the color and the patterns!

The brag part of this blog post:


I have had to move some of the images from my blog. Do you want to know why? Will this image give you the answer?

The Scrapbook News And Review Volume #5 Issue #2 is going up later today and I am very excited. My scrappy goal for 2012 is to submit and get published, I admit that. Not to be famous and celebrated, but to see if I can push myself, get confirmed that I have established a style (hmmm, do you recognize that feeling, not beeing sure about your style?) and see if working towards a spesific goals forces me to try out new approaches to scrapbooking, not running in the same old track.

I will have two layouts in this issue of the magazine, both of them in the Pet department and about our budgies: one happy, and one very sad. So have a look for them, I'll shout out in my blog when I know which pages they are on.

She Must Go

... her planet needs her.

All Materials from MyScrapbookNook February Kit
featuring October Afternoon Sasparilla collection

I do a lot of thinking when it comes to titles on my layouts. I want the titles to say more than just what the photos shows, go behind the images shown.

If you are a cat owner, you will probably understand my title pretty easily. Can you tell me WHY a cat will spend so much energ on doing a long jump from the kitchen counter to the kitchen table, when it would be far less calory burning to just slide down from the counter, walk over the floor and then just access the table via the chair?

Close up showing my hubby's good looking behind

And according to my cat's attitude, the kitchen table is her kingdom and her planet...


Have a fabolous week, with or without prizes, glory and cats! Anything to share?

MyScrapbook Nook features October Afternoon Sasparilla collection in February, and this kit was just perfect for scrapping those barn party photos.

I hereby give you my lovely neighbours:

"She said what? TGI Tuesday?"
You're right. There is never anything fun about Tuesdays. I don't think anything fun or exciting ever have happened on a Tuesday. You're right.

I'm going to do something about it! To celebrate my #500 blogpost, which will be the next blog post I wright, every Tuesday from now and until the end of April I'm going to give away a card kit. I'll put up a blog post about it on Tuesdays (obviously), you have until Friday to leave a comment.  I'll announce a winner the day after. Winners will be drawn by random. Easy, right?

Here is my give away for this week:

And here is a layout I don't think I has put up on this blog before - I just have forgotten about it. DS9 took these photos on his class' field trip last spring, or he handed the camera to his teacher to take photos of him. Clever boy!

Made in Juli 2011 with My Scrapbooknook June kit, featuring lily bee

When I see this layout it reminds me I should get some more Dymo tape...
Leave me a comment before Friday january 27th Midnight GMT+1 to enter the drawing for the card kit. if you are the winner you have one week to claim your prize.
