Black With 2 August Challenge "Always Special"

Hi everyone. Welcome to my NEW Blog. This is my first post on it. Yeah!!!!  & guess what, I made a boo boo. This challenge was black background with green & NO flowers. I was having so much fun creating this layout, got it all finished & posted,  & then realised I had used a flower border punch down the side. Woops!!!!  So I went back to the drawing board, pulled it apart & redid it omitting the flower punch. SO... This is my 2nd version of the challenge  I did for  the Black With 2 blog.  I found it extremely challenging not to use flowers on such a girly page, but I think I coped quite well considering. Just to keep myself happy I managed to spread a bit of glitter & bling around.  Thanks for dropping by.

Until next time.   Luv Jan xx

"Kraft it Up" June Challenge....".I am Jan"

Hi everyone -   I haven’t used Kraft very often and I must say I really love it – you can put any colour at all with it.  I’ve also sewn around this page, something else I haven’t done much before.  Of course I’ve indulged myself as usual with my scissors!!  As well as cutting out the paper there are these fantastic  “Collections” butterflies and words.  No bling on this one but I just had to use some Glimmermist.  The Crafter’s Workshop butterfly template was the ideal thing and shows up to perfection.  W.O.W. chippies add the final touch.  Thanks once again for looking in    Luv Janxx
