The "Autumn
Bloom" Kit, with all of the rustic elements, made me think of creating a
garden setting. The Mediums Add-On, featuring Distress Oxide Inks from Ranger,
made me think canvas. Here's how the two ideas came together.
I had intended
to wipe the ink off the stenciled butterflies, but I think that the Martha
Stewart glitter paint works a lot better.
Fun cut-outs and
gorgeous blooms and foliage make such a pretty setting...
The tutorial is on Snapguide; here's the link https://snapguide.com/guides/make-a-butterfly-garden-wthe-sept-swirlydoos-kit/

Good Saturday
morning, Swirly Savages!
Time to grab you
favorite stencil and dig into that pile of canvases that you bought on sale -
we're going to create a quick and easy (I promise!) wall hanging with the
February "Love Letters" kit!
I've created a
tutorial on Snapguide; here's the link.
And a few
closeups...

Hello all,
Today it's my turn to share with you my Design Team Projects for the Swirlydoos Kit Club 'Market Street' Kit reveal.
This kit features beautiful papers from 49 and Market 'Botanical Heirlooms' collection. I adored these papers and as always the kit included some gorgeous embellishments!
I'm going to start with the
SKETCH CHALLENGE.
We have a beautiful new look sketch this month designed by our very own DT member Kim. Details of the challenge are on the forum HERE

I'm going to start with the
SKETCH CHALLENGE.
We have a beautiful new look sketch this month designed by our very own DT member Kim. Details of the challenge are on the forum HERE
Here is my take on the sketch.
I used the papers 'The Patch' and 'Passage' from the Heirloom Botanicals collection for this layout.
There is some fussy cutting to create the flower embellishments and cutting into the paper to slip in the lace. I have used products from the Main kit, Flower, Embellishment and Mediums Add On kits.
SOMEONE SPECIAL LAYOUT
Next I'm going to show you another layout using the Duty Attic chipboard piece from the Embellishment Add On.
I used paper 'Faded Bloom' for this layout. I altered my chipboard with a Lindys Stamp Gang embossing powder Geranium Coral Blush, from a previous kit.
I used the Prima Memory Hardware Artisan powder 'French sage' in the background of my flower clusters to deepen the cluster and give it some 'undergrowth' background.
I have used the Main, Flower, Embellishment and Mediums Add On kits.
Next up is my
ALL THAT FLUTTERS CHALLENGE LAYOUT
For this challenge use the November 'Market Street’ kit and Kit Add-ons to create a scrapbook layout, OTP project, tag or card including anything that ‘flutters’ somewhere within that project i.e butterflies, dragonflies, bees, ladybugs, birds, fairies
More details of the challenge are on the Forum HERE
Here is my layout
I used the paper 'Oasis' for this layout. I tore the paper into 3 and then turned the middle piece over and used the reverse side in my layout.
The sewing machine came out for this layout!
I used products from the Main, Flower, Cardstock, Embellishment and Medium Add On Kits.
ANATOMY LAYOUT
You may have seen this already in the reveal post but if you haven't this is my anatomy layout.
This layout is made from the Main Kit only.
You can find the SNAPGUIDE tutorial for this layout HERE
Lastly for today is my
TECHNIQUE KIT PROJECT CANVAS
I thoroughly enjoyed this project - a 12x12 canvas and some Bare Basics 'Love' Letters.
I did a Mixed Media background and then had fun with the flowers!
There is a SNAPGUIDE tutorial to go with this to show you my process in creating this.
You can find it HERE
Here are some close ups.
Thank you for stopping by today,
I hope you enjoyed your visit

Hello everyone, welcome to my Reveal of the 'Creamsical' Kit and my SATURDAY TUTORIAL featuring a canvas!
Its my turn today to reveal my Design team projects for the reveal of the September kit 'Creamsicle' From Swirlydoos Kit Club.
This kit features BoBunny paper collection Bella Rosa. These papers had a wide range of colours in them as you will see from my projects, enabling some really different layouts!
Here's the first layout, as always, for the Sketch Challenge. You too can enter this challenge too, on the forum. This runs until the 31st October 2016.
This is the beautiful sketch by Beggahuna.
Here is my take on the Sketch.
Next up is the All That Flutters Challenge. This challenge is also open until the 31st October 2016.
This is what I came up with for this challenge.
Now for another layout featuring the 'oranges' in these papers and my gorgeous Labradoodle, Evie!
This last layout goes with a completely different colour scheme. This Core'dinations paper was also in the main kit and I teamed it up with the Anna Griffin Die cut paper.
I have done a SNAPGUIDE TUTORIAL showing you how I created this really simple layout.
Here is the link to view - https://snapguide.com/guides/create-a-layout-with-swirlydoos-september-kit/
Now for the Technique Kit!
*** SATURDAY TUTORIAL ***
I did get 'carried away' with my canvases this month. I ended up creating 3 canvases!
This is the canvas created with the technique kit and the Tim Holtz Distress Crayons - I LOVE these!!!
There is a SNAPGUIDE TUTORIAL available for you to watch to show you how I created this canvas.
Here is the link to view - https://snapguide.com/guides/create-a-canvas-with-swirlydoos-september-tech-kit/
This is the other canvas I created that is also featured in the SNAPGUIDE tutorial and used the stamps etc in the Distress Crayon Watercolour Ink kit.
And then I created this one too, to show you another version using a photo. You can see I enjoyed doing these ?!

This is the beautiful sketch by Beggahuna.
Here is my take on the Sketch.
This layout is made entirely from the Main kit with just the addition of some texture paste and distress ink...........
................ and embossing powder on the chipboard filmstrip. I used the BFS embossing powder 'Mushroom' from last months kit.
Next up is the All That Flutters Challenge. This challenge is also open until the 31st October 2016.
This is what I came up with for this challenge.
The torn paper edges were inked with Frayed Burlap Distress ink.
The metal trinket was covered with the Vintaj Patina Turquoise and then had the Artisan Powder rubbed into it as did the BoBunny Chipboard pieces.
I used the Nuvo on my butterfly centres (Butterflies from last months kit) and added the seed beads with soft mat gel.
I covered the chippie in a white embossing powder and finished it off with some of the Memory Hardware Pearls.
Now for another layout featuring the 'oranges' in these papers and my gorgeous Labradoodle, Evie!
I used the die of the month 'Cascading Circles' on this layout.
The chipboard filmstrip was dabbed several times with Walnut Stain Distress Ink.
And some stamping with Distress Ink Black Soot.
The heart trinket was covered with the Vintaj Patina Sandstone.
This last layout goes with a completely different colour scheme. This Core'dinations paper was also in the main kit and I teamed it up with the Anna Griffin Die cut paper.
I have done a SNAPGUIDE TUTORIAL showing you how I created this really simple layout.
Here is the link to view - https://snapguide.com/guides/create-a-layout-with-swirlydoos-september-kit/
I inked around the edges with Prima Chalk ink pad Farmers Jeans.
I added a Kaisercraft Die Title and some Teal Petaloo flowers from a previous Swirlydoos kit.
Now for the Technique Kit!
