Creative Warriors Inspiration # 9

Time for my next project to inspire you, which is using this month's Challenge Image Wonder by Michelle Grant. I really love the coloured images with the two sides of the face. 

 

Something just a little bit different this month! 

I created a couple of Art Journals and used the images for the front and back covers.

I actually printed these ones on glossy photo paper.

Matted onto black card stock and then laminated.

Punched with my Happy Planner punch and then put on the disc.

I cut up some Water Colour Paper pad and also Acrylic Paint Paper pads to fit my covers and added them too.

My words are from Karen Yate's Little Word Bits #2.

The only problem with these is that the covers are very slippery!

I hope my Crafty Girlfriend loves hers as much as I love mine.

Well, I hope I have inspired you to look at your packs a little bit differently and maybe try this out yourself for some special gift giving.

Don't forget to share with us any of your projects over on the Michelle's Creative Warriors Facebook group, we'd love to see them.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Sparkling Spring Kids

Hard to think it's April already and Easter is just a few short weeks away!

I know this year just seems to be flying by already. 

We have endured a lot in just a few short months, hard to believe it wasn't Christmas that long ago and we were all filled with hope for a better 2022!

On that note, here is my projects for Gecko Galz this month - a bit of snark always brings a smile to my face!

I started off by making some ATC's using the new Sparkling Spring Kids Collage.

I googled quotes, as I do, and came up with some great ones to use.

I then decided to add 4 others to a Happy Planner Pocket for my Planner.

I added a plaited ribbon that I had left over from my Butterfly Book Binding Card last month.

A lovely little butterfly charm, a patterned paper from my stash as the background to tie them all together, some washi tape to cover the gaps and then my "Laugh" woodchip because we all need to remember to have a laugh. I used distress inks and Gold Wink of Stella Brush with my white Gel pen on it to come up with a grungy mossy type look to it. LOL, works for me!

Anyway, after all the rain and floods here in Queensland, happy to say that the retainer wall between our house and our neighbours is now repaired (that is not cheap even when you only have to pay half!) so the fence no longer is shaped in a V and wondering if Tiggy will try to jump the side fence to get out through the missing soil area! My son and daughter-in-law lost power for around 8 days and could not get to work as they couldn't get out of their apartment building due to it being flooded through the foyer. Lucky they are on the 7th floor! We are all looking forward to some normalcy in our lives again now, whatever that is now!

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

2021 Cat Lovers Hop

Have you joined in the 2021 Cat Lovers Hop this year yet?.

Here is my 2nd project

I used an image and words from the 3' Note Cards and Envelope set by Ephemoire.

I fussy cut and adhered to my Planner - just perfect, and cute to boot!

LOL, I don't get too fancy in my planner as my shifts keep getting switched around on me so I am forever crossing out, etc.....maybe next year as I am working on changing roles where this won't happen as much...fingers crossed!

Don't forget to leave me a comment to be in the chance to win some super prizes.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Planner Mermaid

Another Mermaid from the Mermaid Magic sheet from Gecko Galz.

This time I kept it very simple and added her to my planner.

I went for next month and that particular weekend happens to be Father's Day here in Australia.

All going well, fish and chips at the beach for lunch!

A couple of rolls of washi tape and some stickers and we are ready to write on .... let's just see how this on again off again lockdown saga goes first.

I am entering the following Challenges:

Pastel Holiday Mason Jar Card Set

The Pastel Holiday Mason Jar Card Set by Ephemoire is a very versatile set for all year round.

I created an accordion card with 3 of the Mason Jars. Perfect for Christmas.

I also made an easel card with the lovely Angel as the focal point.

As well as a planner divider using another of the jars and one of the wine tags!

Add rhinestones, sequins, twine, die cuts and anything else in your stash.

Such a versatile range with so many possibilities.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Creepy Hair clip and planner accessories

Here is something a bit different - planner accessories and hair clip using a file by Ephemoire.

The file I used is The Creepy Closet.

I printed off a few pages from The Creepy Closet files, decided which ones I wanted to use and fussy cut them.

I then popped them through my laminator and fuss cut again. Added a small hole in top and attached clip to each one.

The it was just a matter of adding to jumbo paper clip, band and onto a hair clip.....easy to switch them out as wanted.

I must say, I really like that hair clip!

I hope you like it and I have inspired you to create some tags.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Respect ...

I just had to share the new dividers I made for my Happy Planners!

I used two of the girls from Karamfila's Respect Clip Art  and the background is a paper from Alo-ho-ho-ho paper pack - yes, not just for Christmas!

This first one says " I SWEAR We are fighting two pandemics: Coronavirus and Stupidity!

This second one says "When this quarantine is over, let's not tell some people...

Don't they just make you smile!

I have them both in my mini hp as it's easy to photograph, but will use one in my Classic hp as well.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!
