A new Kit for Daisy Chain Scrapbooks

Hi friends, it's so nice to be back here on my blog after a break that has been longer than I expected.  I've still been working on lots of projects, just haven't had a chance to share them here.

This weekend is one of my favourite weekends of the year, the Brisbane Scrapbook and Papercraft Expo!  I'm looking forward to meeting up with scrappy friends, hopefully meeting some online friends in person for the first time, learning in the classrooms and definitely a bit of shopping too.

I have a few layouts that are being sold as kits at the Daisy Chain Scrapbooks stand.  This kit uses the lovely Teresa Collins Design | Memorabilia collection.




I so love chalkboard themed products and this collection features them heavily.  There is a lot of fussy cutting and a lot of stitching, both of which seem to have become a regular feature of any kits that I make.




I also love to make one-off DIY embellishments for my kits.  The feathers that feature on this layout are made from a template that comes with the kit, and they are then hand cut, sewn and then hand cut some more.  



The Studio Calico chevrons have had a little bit of a bling treatment ha!







I always, always include instructions and product for a bonus card to make after the layout in my kits.  I pretty much always do this myself when I make a layout and its a good way to use up all those little left over pieces.




There are three more of my kits that the Daisy Chain girls are stocking this weekend, so if you're at the Expo drop in and take a look.    This layout featuring Crate Paper's Boys Rule collection, a dreamy Prima Seashore layout, and also a bright and happy (and sparkly!) layout to document who you are right now using the Teresa Collins Design Daily Stories Collection are all bundled up and are ready and waiting on the shelves.

If you're at the expo and you recognise me from my profile pic or from my Instagram feed pull me aside and say hi - I'd love to meet you!

Happy weekend!!
