Project Life: Dear Lizzy Fifth and Frolic

I started working on a Project Life album last November, as a creative way of displaying my photos and recording memories. I bought the Neutral Baby kit and Wellington Childhood kit and have also used a lot of papers I already had, digital scrapbooking kits, and some Simple Stories Snap papers. I have loved the process so far!

I pre-ordered the Dear Lizzy Fifth and Frolic core kit the day it went online at Australian stores. This beautiful kit was an exclusive for a store in the USA, so I had already admired it from a distance but a limited amount of stock was then released to international sellers. Yay! I recently received it and absolutely love it! Here are some creative photos I took highlighting some of my favourite cards:

Cathe Holden: Just Something I Made

I love to see what other people have made! 

Cathe Holden has a wonderful blog, Just Something I Made, with lots of photos and instructions for craft and d-i-y projects. I love this idea for creating beautiful "engraved" jewellery from clear stamps:

Cathe's also giving away some sweet blog headers she designed:

Rosy Rosettes

I really like these layered rosettes I've seen on scrapbooking lately (Studio Calico Looking Glass Alice Add-on, Two Peas in a Bucket Frosty Aqua Lollipops). I also saw something similar on a dress a few months back. So I had a go at making some, and put brooch pins on the back.
This is the first brooch I made. I used bits of fabric that I already had - satin, cotton, organza, plain, patterned, floral... I was pretty happy with it! The cute flower buttons are from Spotlight.
