Scrapbook Fantasies - week 1

Hey Hey.. Back I am with my first challenge entry for the new year..
As usual Scrapbook Fantasies are right on top of their challenge releases and of course I'm "loving" their week 1 - 2015 idea... "Create a project using the word or theme of LOVE"..
 
he waits all her life for this dance
 
 
This special layout features a photo of my cousin Aleesha and her Dad (my Uncle Ian), during their Father/Daughter dance at her wedding in 2010..
I have chosen to use very natural and soft tones for the embellishments so that they didn't overpower the beautiful black and white photo..
 
 
The one pop of colour that I've included on this layout is the tag under the photo.. It serves two purposes in fact.. The first is that it holds the "love" word aspect of the challenge requirement.. The second is that on the back of the tag I have wrote a lovely "father/daughter bond" poem.. 

 
The butterflies were punched from a punch that I picked up from my Mum's.. :)
The flowers are all random and I honestly don't know the manufacturers..
Plenty of buttons, pearls and shimmerz paint for that extra stunning little touch..

Quick Card Share

Howdy... It's been a week since my last post, so thought I'd jump on and quickly share with you a couple of cute cards and an ATC that I completed a couple days ago..
I really haven't done any other crafting.. The boys are keeping me busy being on school holidays.. :)
 
These are only simple, but serve the purpose and meet the themes..
 
"sports" ATC
 
 "Anything Goes" card..


"Fairy" card.. 
 
 
I'm hoping to get some more crafting done soon.... maybe.. lol..
Hope you're all enjoying the holidays too and getting much more craft time than I am.. :)
 
Don't forget to head on over to my facebook page for up to date craftiness, when it actually happens..
