Scrapmatts - Celebrating Women

Hi Girls,

Have been busy with DT work for the last couple of weeks and I have this month's Scrapmatts creations to share with you.  This month is all about celebrating women and girls and I have created 2 LO's and 3 cards using some delicious new Scrapmatts chippies.  Check out the Scrapmatts site to see the all the fab new designs Sofie and Andrew have in the store.  Don't forget to check out this month's challenge to be in for a chance to win a fab Scrapmatts prize.

Miss You

I started to create this LO for a Guest DT spot at OUAS and realised I hadn't taken the sketch into account.  It was a perfect LO for this month's theme, so I have added a few more Scrapmatts chippies and tweaked it a little.  This was a difficult LO to work on, as it's about my mum, who passed away when I was 25.  I used an angel from the Kaiser Sweet Nothings pp's and added the Wings 01 chippies, which are in the white mist colour.  I ADORE the new Ornate Frames 13 and used the larger one to frame my photo.  I inked in 2 tones of green and then coated with crackle medium.  We have a new set of butterfly chippies which are fabulous... there are 8 different sizes in the pack!! I know this will become another of my favs.  The butterflies were inked and then topped with a pearl

Time Flies

Had some fun creating with different mediums on this LO.  The background is tissue paper which I misted in gold.  I made my own mist by mixing some Jo Sonja metallic paint and water... so easy.  Crafter's Workshop stencils are fast becoming one of my fav items.  I used the cherry blossom with some texture paste, then dusted the flowers with Perfect Pearls.  I softened the colours in the floral pp with cream whitewash so it would blend in with my colour scheme.  The title was inked in pink and gold, then coated with some crackle medium.
Used some pretty vintage chippies on this LO.  With all those fussy cut flowers I just had to add some of my fav butterfly chippies, which I inked and dusted with Perfect Pearls for a lovely shimmer, then gave them a pretty pearl centre.  The Clocks 03 I left as they were in the white mist colour and the Federation Corners 03 I inked in gold.

How cute are the new cupcake chippies... they are perfect for jazzing up a birthday card!! I used the Cupcakes 02 which have 3 different styles in the pack.  The top was altered with some liquid pearls to look like frosting then topped with a resin flower.  The ATC Bracket 01 chippies are fab as a background for your sentiments.. I covered the chippie in pp and used a stamp and a rubon for my sentiment.  I also used one of the new Hearts 05 chippies which I painted in white then added a little rubon.

Sweet Birthday Wishes

On this card I used the Cupcakes 01 chippies which are a bit bigger.  I inked the cupcake with pink and tied some organza ribbon around the casing, then used the little hearts which I cut from the Heart Spray 01 as sprinkles and inked them in mint green.  The Ornate Frames are also a great way to frame your greetings on your card, I just inked it and highlighted with a couple of fussy cut flowers.

On my final card I played with more new gorgeous chippies.  The Antique Stands 01 go perfectly with the Micro Chips 20 Birdcages and Birds.  I inked them to fit in colours then added the new Leaf Spray 01 which I cut up to add a little greenery and topped with a mini paper rose.  I used the mini Ornate Frames 14 to frame my sentiment.
