Creating with a

New Year's song inspiration....

We really loved this song because it has quite a positive message and feels very international too!

So create with either the title and/or any of the lyrics within your project

(so long as its visable)

Title of song: 'This is the New Year'

Lyrics:

Another year you made a promise
Another chance to turn it all around
And do not save this for tomorrow
Embrace the past and you can live for now
And I will give the world to you

Speak louder than the words before you
And give them meaning no one else has found
The role we play is so important
We are the voices of the underground
And I would give the world to you

Say everything you’ve always wanted,
Be not afraid of who you really are,
Cause in the end we have each other,
And that’s at least one thing worth living for,
And I would give the world to you

A million suns that shine upon me
A million eyes you are the brightest blue
Lets tear the walls down that divide us
And build a statue strong enough for two,

I pass it back to you
And I will wait for you,
Cause I would give the world
And I would give the world
And I would give the world to you

This is the new year
A new beginning
You made a promise
You are the brightest
We are the voices
This is the new year
We are the voices
This is the new year

I really think this is marvellous inspiration by the DT's at Let's Get Shabby & decided to make a card this time.

I used beautiful vanilla Bazzill, Kraft, doily, birdie image, KKC tag & ephemera, KC flower & other blossoms, MME rubon butterfly,Jenni Bowlin alphas & inks, masks. 

Hope you have been able to scrap today!

Cheers,

You put the Merry into Merry Christmas album....

And this is my 3 page acrylic Merry album I made for Let's Get Shabby - using the is the criteria that was specified -

I have painted each page with my very fave paint Dazzling Metallics in Oyster Pearl, a shade I adore, then added Crate papers, Kaisercraft chippies, Imaginence crystal snowflakes & flowers, Darkroom Door cut outs & some lovely stickers - brand unknown.

Let's Get Shabby #27

What a wonderful inspiration for me...you know how much I love cooking..perfect!

I decided to have a whirl at this fabulous site & here is my piccies...

I have had this corrugated box in my pantry & it holds all my lovely patty pan papers, so wow, it is great to have fun & embellish it all up.

I have used this photo of funny me, from our fabulous Inagural  Golden Circle Pineapple Party from December last year....what fun we all had finding 60's clothes & memorabilia from that decade, & included was recipes from Trish's great garage sale find of the Golden Circle Pineapple Cook Book......& of course featuring pineapple!! 

The inspiration from TallulahBelles marvelous 'Grandma's (very apt for me) Kitchenalia Art Kit, Glamour Paperie'  was just so great! 

All that red.....('when in doubt wear red' & yes I do have my red jacket & shoes on today) & gorgeous tickets, flower, ribbons & oh my that wonderful fabric just did it for me!

A closeup of lovely bits & bobs...

And of course the contents...my pretty patty pans..

I really enjoyed working on this one & tarting up this little box is great too...thanks gals!
