I did this layout of our Australian Dust Storms in September. I used the kits I made inspired by the colours we saw!
Dusty Hues Collection, or Page Kit and Add On Pack
I also used my Painted Photo Masks to give the photo a painted look.
Journalling:
In September of this year we had some really extreme dust storms. The storms made the news worldwide and caused many breathing issues, not to mention the clean up! We tucked ourselves inside as much as we could to avoid the dust, but I couldn’t resist going out to take photos of the amazing effect of the dust on our view.
Our darling boy is a bit of an enigma, he can be oooh sooo sweet and charming, but can also be SO cranky and moody!
Created with my Urban Myths Page Kit. I put one of the backgrounds over the other in overlay mode to create a different background. I used my Inked Edges Stamps to create a bit of a border around the photo. I used my Urban Grunge and Faux Lomo actions on his photo. I love how it came out! Both actions are from my Foto Action Pack Vol 1.
Our darling girl. She really does rock! Created with my Urban Princess Page Kit . The photo effects were created with the Dreamy Photo and Urban Grunge actions from my Foto Action Pack Vol 1
The frame was recoloured to white from my Doodle Me Crazy Frame Stamps
It is not often I get a chance to join in on the DSP Speed Scrap chat, because I am usually at my day job, but I am on annual leave at the moment so was able to join in for a change. What a lot of fun! If you have never done one before I totally recommend trying it.
Anyway, here is my layout, I did it in around 50mins I think. I arrived late but finished as everyone was leaving the chat. Mind you I was chatting while I was scrapping and feeding the kids insatiable appetites! What is it about school holidays that makes them so hungry???
Anyway, here is the layout created with my Urban Myths Page Kit available in the DSP store.
Check out my latest 2 page Template set now available in the DSP store!
I did a layout of our new house with this Quick Click Template. It is nearly finished but here is what it looks like in June…Click on the layout to se it a bit bigger.

I did this layout with my P365 Essentials Vol 2 Page Kit available in the DSP store.
I did another layout of the kids having their faces painted as I so loved how great they looked. This one is with my Hard At Play Add On Pack and Inked Edges Stamp Set available in the DSP store.

Journalling – Patiently Waiting in line Holding Hands. There was a big line up for face painting at the show, and it was so cute teh way you held hands while waiting ever so patiently.
I created a layout with my Hard At Play Page kit last night. Kyan got his face painted at the local show in March and of course wanted to be Batman, the superhero fan that he is.

Those of you who are regulars at DSP will know about the 9 on the 9th Monthly challenge and I have been meaning to participate for ages and have finally managed it. I have created a brand new quick click perfect for the challenge to help make your 9 on the 9th layouts that much quicker!
The kids were having a wonderful time jumping on the trampoline and singing out their favourite catch phrase, ‘I believe I can fly!’.
Created with my kit Citrus Funk and the 9 Photos and Curls Quick Click Template.
The March Graphically Challenged at DSP is to ‘cross process’ a photo and create a layout with that photo. Cross processing is a traditional still film photography technique that can produce some really striking results, however you can achieve similar effects in photoshop without messing with those stinky chemicals!
I have done a tutorial to demonstrate how to achieve the effect in photoshop. The challenge is to create a layout using the cross processed photo and have it take up the entire page.
I decided to scraplift a layout done by Klamb1111 because I loved the affect she created on her layout with the tutorial and had the perfect photo to use after Jasmine learnt how to ride her bike without training wheels over the weekend!
Anyway, here is my layout using the technique, using the cross processed photo, blend modes and a background paper from my Altered Heart Page Kit.
