Rob & Liz's Blessed Adventures

Hi Lovelies, Today I'm sharing with you these seriously stunning cards designed by Helen.  Helen has previously designed many layouts, albums, art journal and mixed media projects and has finally taken to cards! The cards focus heavily on embossing and die-cutting so it's the perfect opportunity to rummage through your collection and pull out your favorite embossing folders and dies! All three cards are made from white card stock with a single statement colour. The splash of soft pink on this card is just so stunning.   Tiny little pearls are the perfect way to subtly include a feature colour in your cards and create a seamless finish.   Helen has used Glitzin' Glamour to beautifully highlight the embossing patterns and die-cuts without introducing a new colour. Texture is the key to making a standout card when using a single colour scheme.  Helen has created texture in these cards by using layers of intricate die-cuts...

Hi Lovelies, After a lovely Christmas break things are back in motion this week!  We kick off the year's first Monday Cards class with the lovely 'Beautiful You' range by Celebr8.   The range features soft pastel tones and a plethora of succulents,  perfect for fussy cutting!  This stunning card uses the Tim Holtz inks Scattered Straw,  Shabby Shutters, Victorian Velvet and Weathered Wood to highlight  the colours in this paper range.  Liz has used the 'Succulent Garden' stencil with matte finish texture paste to  create this unique, textured background. With the finishing touch of a mounted cut-out sentiment,  this card is simply beautiful.  The background for this card uses the 'Swiss Dots' embossing folder  which is the perfect staple pattern for any background. If you are interested in finding out more about our card classes, please call the lovely ladies at...

Hi Lovelies, Today I'm sharing with you this gorgeous vintage tag designed by the lovely Helen.  This tag is scattered with vintage memorabilia, unique buttons, distressed music paper, delicate lace and precious photos.   Helen has kept a fairly neutral colour pallet for this tag by using postal tags that have been inked and stamped as the background. Torn, rolled and die cut music paper has also been used to compliment and continue this neutral theme. Beautiful soft hints of pink in the tiny flowers and lace are a beautiful addition to the eclectic of vintage elements on this tag.   Helen's precious photo is surrounded by vintage buttons and sweet little metal star and heart embellishments. However, you could add absolutely anything to this tag to personalise it. There are so many ways to get your treasured photos out of the boxes and on display.  This vintage tag is perfect for those smaller pho...

Hi Lovelies, If you love our mannequin series and wish you could have one of these lovely little ladies to call your own but don't think you have the time to make one yourself, we have a special treat for you! Christine, one of our beautiful Christmas mannequins, has been lovingly designed and handmade by Helen. She is now up for sale and could be yours! These adorable Christmas bell embellishments are just one of the many stunning pieces on this mannequin. Crisp white layers of lace, tulle and fairy mesh, with sprinkles of bows and blings adorn the intricate wire dress form.

A stunning assortment of Poinsettias, Gypsophila, post stamps and tiny bows have been selected to embellish Christine's bust. Our mannequins make fabulous Christmas presents or home decorations. There is only one of these lovely m...

Hi Lovelies, Today's post is a bit of a unique one! We're showing you three different ways you can use the same paper range. We have created a Mixed Media page, Layout and Mini Album  using 'Chesterville' by Blue Fern Studios. The 'Chesterville' paper acts as the perfect background or base for any project.  The neutral, earthy colours and patterns will suit any photos and embellishments. All three projects are very different. To see more of each project and how it's been created,  simply click on the picture! The first wonderful creation from this range is a Mixed Media layout.  This layout focuses on focusing on lots of colourful embellishments and uses  the amazing Tim Holtz Distress Oxides to create a frosted layer over the Chesterville paper.  This layout features the page 'Bretton' which has been  softly inked to change it to the desired colour. The coordinating Blue Fern  flowers have also be...
