Do you need a quick gift idea for a friend, well I have just the right gift for you to make with some scrap scrapbooking papers an just a little amount of time.

Lydia back today to share a quick, easy and beautiful handmade gift for a friend.

 
So the things you will need for this project are:
 
First of all you will need to find some scraps of scrapbooking paper that you want to use on your card.

 
Next all I did was cut strips of the scrap papers.

 
Then adhered these strips of paper using the Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.

 
Lastly for the card I used Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA Glue to adhere a wood veneer frame.

 
And here is my finished card.

 
So now I am working on a little something to put in my frame. I cut a piece of pattered paper an a cut apart d glued them together using Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.

 
I wanted this piece to stand up a bit in the frame, so I added some fun foam and used the Helmar Foam Glue to adhere to the min piece of pattered paper in the frame.

 
And that is my quick and easy gift for a friend. This project took me all of about half an hour. 




 
I hope you all enjoyed this little DIY project.

Have great day.

Scrapbooking Top 50 Australia

Good morning my beautiful's, I am back today to share my layouts so far from being on the Scrapooking Top 50 Austraia's Design Team.

So how I became a member of this very talented team was I received a Facebook message from the lovely Vicki Burdon asking me if I would be interested in being on the team to give inspiration for their monthly challeges. And I said Yes!


So my first challenge layout was needed within the same week and was the April challenge.

The first challenge was a sketch and this is my layout.



May's challenge was a colour palette and here was the layout I created. I changed it up and created a Project Life layout.


And my most recent layout being for the June moodbaord challenge.


So they are my layouts so far for Scrapooking Top 50 Australia. Be sure so head over to their blog HERE to get some inspiration from many of the DT memebers and as well as keep a eye out for the July challenge.

Hope you liked these layout and I will look forward to hopefully seeing some of my readers entering future Scrapooking Top 50 Australia challenges.

Have a lovely day.
