SCRAPS OF DARKNESS - AUGUST REVEAL AND KIT

Scrappy Dark sisters, Here we are another month almost gone and I am Late again.......

This month Scraps of Darkness revealed their gorgeous Jamaican Sunset kit filled with luscious summer colours to delight our eyes.

Suepup or Charlotte has provided a gorgeous sketch to tantalise us all

So here we have a couple of my layouts, Firstly, Id like to introduce you to

Tammy and Buffy.

I got Tammy, a Cardigan Corgi for my 7th Christmas. She was such a gorgeous girl and after a couple of years she had a litter of puppies. We kept one of the pups, Buffy a male is on the left in the photo.

Tammy and Buffy came everywhere with us, we used to campand travel Australia for long camping trips and we always took our dogs.....

Then I used my current mixed media course Im taking to inspire the next page

Its of my Little Bella, and her Tiara falling off her little head.....Isnt she adorable...ooops Mum, it fall'd off....I used a stencil from last Months kit and added a little saying: She was a creative soul and knew she was loved!

Bella sure knows shes loved and shes always being creative!!!!!

I have to shout out a Humungus Thank you to Manorhouse Creations for the flowers & paper, they saved my bacon this month.....Thank you Nerrida.
I had a major catastrophe with the postal service and wouldnt be scrapping this month without their input!

Please do yourselves a favour scrappy sisters, check out Manorhouse their flowers & paper collections are to scrumptious to pass up....yummy!

My next layout is of My Handsome Big Man Mr Spike....The treasure of his Momma's heart!!!!!

This one looks better in person ,but the afternoon light had set in....... Here is my Big Man on the bed, giving cuddles!!!!!!!!! No matter where I am he follows and if I go take a "nanny nap" hes right there.....

There was this month a mixed media add on, WOW, it is awesome, and the possibilities are endless...I made this mixed media steampunk canvas using the kit contents.....I called it Time Flies....I love steampunk so bought that theme forward

You wont be dissappointed with this kit.....Its scrumptious!!!!!
