Winnie White Christmas - Planner

Hi Crafty buddies

Its time for a brand new challenge over at the Polkadoodles Crafting Challenge Blog. Anything Goes and great Polkadoodles prizes to be won. https://polkadoodle.blogspot.co.uk/

The DT are doing Not a card -autumn,winter, xmas so the Winnie White Christmas Collection had to come out and I thought ha ha!! lets get started on the planner pages for Christmas. So I printed off some of the pre-coloured images, embellies and design sheets onto label paper. I used some  of the banners on the design sheets to make some washi tape and hey presto my planner spread all done.

You can find the Winnie White Christmas collection right here

Ghosts Planner Inspiration

Boo!!! Bet that scared you!!
Everyone's gone a bit Spooky at the minute and Scrappers Delights is no exception.

Firstly there are many sale items in the Halloween section of the store
http://scrappersdelights.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=89_157&zenid=d5345bc2bf6c9b27956dd53aef41e6b3

Secondly some news.... As you know I've always been a Scrappers Delights DT but now I'm on the Planner Inspiration team which is soooo exciting. Janice has digital planner pages that I've used in my spread together with one of her digi kits Spellbound 

http://scrappersdelights.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=10&products_id=332&zenid=d5345bc2bf6c9b27956dd53aef41e6b3

I've also added her little ghosts

Here's my planner spread.

I did most of this digitally in My Craft Artist adding the images from the digi kit which include the witches, tree, cat, pumpkins, book, sprite, hat, cobweb, googly eye, cauldron and fence. I took them  into the photo section and then individually  arranged them to make a bit of a scene as they are all individual digi kit elements and added a drop shadow to them to make them stand out.
I also used 2 of the papers in the kit and cropped them to make a washi tape effect on the top and bottom of the spread and added a skull.
I then added the ghosts and printed the whole spread out and added some colour to the ghosts with copics.
I stamped a few of my everyday planner stamps from Craftin Desert Divas and punched the holes and added them to my planner.

50's Chic

Hi buddies,

Time for a new challenge over st Sheepski Designs Facebook group, Anything Goes with a Sheepski image would love to see you enter.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1730005463906336/

I've chosen to use 50's chic, I just love the 50's don't you. All those beautiful Audrey Hepburn/ Grace Kelly type dresses so girly  and of course these vintage style dresses are all the thing now for lovers of vintage chic.
To think of 1950s fashion is akin to a bright summers day!  Glamourous shapes, colourful prints and always exaggerated with voluminous skirts and tiny waists, just like mini LOL.

You can find this lovely right here in the store
 https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/534436669/50s-chic-image-no-98?ref=shop_home_active_17
I've coloured her with my favourite copic combo R89, R85, R83, and R81 with a few spots of course.

Lulu Cat Girl

Hello there everyone,

Ooow Julia Spiri is back on the case with her new Cat girl Collection. This lovely is Lulu Cat Girl. She's a bit steam punk don't you think? I may have to get a couple of hats for my kitties I'm thinking that they might look rather dashing and some specs to. LOL can't imagine the kerfuffle there would be trying to get those on them...

You can find her right here at the store:
https://www.etsy.com/listing/564774943/

I've coloured the kitty with pencils on white card and used Julia's steampunk watercolour clip art to create the background. You can find it right here

The stickers are digital so you can print them yourself on your favourite paper or onto label paper and cut them out so they are ready to go. I did this and then cut them out on my Scan n Cut. LOL never used a cutting machine so much without tearing my hair out!!

You can find them here at the store

I also used the large planner spread from Scrappers Delights which is digital to and is the same size as a classic happy planner.
