On saying that I have been making lots of things that I have really loved making all because of the fantastic Martina Downes and her coming across Kathy Orta of Paper Phenomenon fame!!! My creative side of life thanks Martina for letting me know about her however not my wallet!! I swear I can hear my Paypal account crying along side my hubbie :)
Now as I bought a few tutorials initially, I love the way she writes them and I bought the class video annual subscription to get a feel of how she thinks and works. The woman is amazing!! I love how she makes the most detailed and seemingly impossible creations and then breaks it down to little building blocks so anyone can do it.
She has a really infectious laugh and the way she interacts with everyone is funny and she makes it feel like everyone is her best friend.
I've been making up a storm and loving every minute.
Now I made this from the from the Scraps of Darkness Apri Kit of which I always get at least the Main Kit and the Embellishment Add-on. I love the kits Melinda makes up every month and I also started with her Scraps of Elegance Kits and Add-ons as well as she is inspired in her choices.
But I have to say hands down that this has been the most amazing kit that I have EVER seen in my crafty live ever!!! I love, love, loved everything and once I found out what collections the papers came from I bought 2 of every paper collection. That is they were American Crafts Amy Tangerine Plus One, LemonLush from Studio Calico, Bo Bunny my Li'l Monster and Printshop from Studio Calico.
I decided to start off with something easy and even though I can't tell you how it's done, I did do my own thing in regards to size of the pages which were 5.5' x 7 and could hold over 100 photos or mats.
I made it for my niece and she was blown away!!
Well I hope you like it and love how fresh and vibrant the papers are. I'm already working on a new project with these fabulous papers.
Let me know what you think!!
