Rob & Liz's Blessed Adventures

Hi Lovelies, I'm back with some wonderful photos to share with you from May's addition to Helen's Fairie Dust Album! Just like the previous months, this page is just stunning and full of mystical little fairies ans sparkling embellishments. May's design has this gorgeous little stack of fussy cut elements decorated with tiny pearls. This section is the perfect spot to write down some details or you can leave it blank if you wish! This Fairie Dust Album is full of interactive elements which suits the mystical nature of the album perfectly and makes it a bundle of fun to look through! For this month Helen has designed a miniature book which is both beautiful and practical, allowing you to store multiple photos and providing ample space for journaling! We're noticing a reoccurring element in all of this albums pages, which is this sparkly glitter thread, and we love it! It's such a simple little element to add to any of your projects if you...

Hi Lovelies, Today I'm sharing with you the next addition to our Fairie Dust Album of the Year! If you've seen our  previous posts on this Album, you would know it features the wonderful Graphic 45 Fairie Dust range which is full of beautiful fairies, delicate flowers and many magical patterns, which you will get to see more of below! Each page of this album has been uniquely designed by the wonderful Helen and there is a stunning new design each month. March's page design has a gorgeous halo of fussy-cut fairies surrounding your chosen photo in the centre of the page. There is also plenty of space at the bottom of the page to journal some precious memories. This silver glitter paper is the perfect accompaniment for this Fairie Dust collection, adding just the right amount of sparkle to the page. Helen has also used Giltzin' Glamour to add a small amount of shimmer to the fairies. Adding various little layers and features to your album makes it really st...

Hi Lovelies, I'm back again to show you INSIDE the Fairie Dust Year of Photos Album! For this series of classes, ladies create a new page in the album each month and this year we are using a single stunning range.   Things are always busy at the start of the year, so to catch up, both the Album and the January page were made on the one day!   Helen is a master at layering techniques and attendees are sure to pick these up in classes throughout the year. Her albums are always stunning which can be attributed to layering the right patterned and solid papers and complimenting them with gorgeous embellishments.   This vibrant green tassel accompanied by a delicate bow at the top of the page is only a portion of the luxurious embellishments to come in this Album. February's page features three lovely cut outs with a glitter mat, which have been foam mounted onto the page. A very simple method which creates a beautiful ...

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...

Hi Lovelies, Today I'm sharing with you one of our many stunning up coming classes. This here is Helen's beautiful mini album using Bo Bunny's 'Baby Bump'. This album is beautiful all the way from the front cover to the last page.  The front is embellished with adorable hand punched flowers,  die-cut ferns and bling details. Inside there are sixteen lovely pages, with many having extra little pockets and fold outs.  This provides ample space to store all your precious memories and keepsakes. Here you can see the adorable window frame pocket (pictured above) folded out.  This is a perfect way to display and store you photos in an interactive manner. The paper selected for this album is very versatile  and can suit photos from various occasions. There are so many compartments and pockets, you'll have a bundle of fun creating the album  and even more going back through it and finding hidden little memori...

Hi lovelies, Over the Christmas period with school out and no classes,  our team often get to do things that are just for them. Rowena has kindly offered to share with us a mini album she made  to remember some of her fun times in 2014. She built the pages of the album herself from acetate,  and used the BasicGrey Mon Ami range.  The album is full of pockets and fold-outs, just perfect for displaying heaps of photos and memorabilia. Thanks for sharing your album with us Rowena.

Hi Lovelies Mini albums are always fun to make, and they can be so versatile. Helen is teaching this gorgeous mini album in store on Saturday 24th January. The album features the lovely Vintage Rose range from Couture Creations. If you cannot make the class, this project can also be taken as a kit.
