Texture in Wonderland


I don't know why I do this to myself, I pick the busiest paper, that is too cool to cover up, and then I try and squeeze some photos onto it!?? Anyway, my daughter had a tea party for her 16th birthday, and then Graphic 45 came out with Halloween in wonderland.... so... I just HAD to use it for her party. I printed on transparencies, used some Prima bling, a key from, I think Tim Holtz? and sepia'd like crazy to get washed out antiquey looking photos, busy yes ( seems to be my usual lately ) but fun :-) like the party!
There are PLENTY of textures here, hard to see but the cards are all different levels too, this was my challenge for http://www.twistedsketches.com/2010/07/twisted-sketch-058.html

Exciting day today!!

Well hello all :-) Today started out a great day when I received the new Graphic 45 line called Hallowe'en in Wonderland Collection, and then it got even better when I won my first challenge at The Pink Elephant! Very exciting, I will wear my badge with pride! :-)


This was my winning page,

Heritage Beach with Graphic 45


This is my Heritage page for
and http://www.twistedsketches.com/2010/07/twisted-sketch-057.html Now, I know it's a busy page, and I Love and Hate Graphic 45 for the same reason... they're pages are so beautiful I don't want to cover them up..... so it makes it very hard NOT to have a busy page! But here goes anyway.... this is one of my favorite pictures of my Aunty Ritchie... she is just a little teen here, and all her older brothers friends surrounded her on the dock.... she's very popular! and oh so CUTE!!
