Quiet Moments


We all need a few quiet moments in our day, and yet we so seldom take them. This kit is a reminder to do just that...nurture ourselves just a little bit!




Wonderland

... and then of course, there is Alice!  
Direct from the archives, extracted and colored, Wonderland is based on the fabulous the Alice in Wonderland  theme and her marvelous adventures. Honoring the works of John Tenniel, Lewis Carroll, and Arthur Rackham, I hope you find this large collection a thrill to your senses and are inspired by these marvelous Imaginaries!   


and from Gina, Cheryl, Hayley, Jean, and Jeannette, these amazing pages to give you inspiration

This is a first in a series of this style. Floral Fancies are adult Flower Fairies....

Chantilly Lane

Chantilly Lane Bundle, an 18th century town just waiting for the stories to be told. A Downton Abbey, a Peyton Place,  a Place to Call Home....this kit is waiting for you to tell your stories!  Filled with fun characters, gorgeous settings and backdrops, and elegant furnishings, the Bundle is everything you need to create amazing pages or journal art. 


Just look at  some of the pages my marvelous team has created!  I love showing off what they can do!

Hayley created this country scene, and I love how she overlayed the various blended elements to create such a soft environment. 

Gina created such a totally different look using some of the same material, I adore the misty look, and love how she used the little girl to look like she is knocking on the door!

Cheryl used the farmhouse blend on top of the background paper with the trees to create this beautiful scene. She added the tree limb, fence, birdbath and maid, and toned down the grass a bit to make this amazing page look like a painting.

I just adore this page by Hayley.  I love how the maid looks like she is scolding the cat as the little boy and dog look on with anticipation that they are next!

I got carried away and had to do a page myself! I guess I love 18th century style!

Doesn't Cheryl's page look like a watercolor painting? I will have to ask her how she did this, but my favorite part of this is how she arranged the window with the shutters, making it larger than life, adding such an artsy feel to it. It is fun to see how all the same elements can look so different!

I love this doorway, so had to add this one to show you!  This was one of those quick plopping elements on a page sort of thing as I tested the elements to make sure they are usable.  I liked the courtyard look, and since I wanted to show off that archway door...well, here it is!

Hayley wanted me to show you the car and staircase, so she quickly put this magnificent page together!

And of course you need to see inside of Chantilly Lane, so welcome to Chantilly Place

Ship to Shore

Excited to present Ship to Shore, my latest kit.  The name actually tells you all about the kit, but let me add that this kit is pure fun!  Just drag and drop the elements onto a page, and try them with the various backgrounds.  If part of an element overlaps too much, just apply a soft eraser at a low opacity to it!  Create your own art!  That is what my designs are all about.  Check out what my team has created using this kit, I am so lucky to have these wonderful ladies who play with abandon!!



So here are a few pages to give you an idea of what YOU can do with this kit!!
Hayley said she just plopped things on a page and this is what she came up with...how fun is this?

I love how Cheryl stacked these elements and created a story by adding the sailor.

I felt like this was a cover of a book, Gina designed a page that was emotional for me, making me crave more!

And see what you can do with texture...beautiful page by Gina!

Look how playful you can get, I just love the whimsical feel to these next few by Hayley and Cheryl:




I love the stacking and blending on the next few pages by Cheryl, Hayley, Gina and myself. The bottom line is that this kit is a blast to play with (if I do say so myself, LOL)







And if you are more into the "less is more" category, how about these? I love the one by Cheryl, creating a shipwreck scene!
