Can you believe it? March is almost over and that means that the Challenge deadlines are fast approaching - time to finish your amazing projects and upload them to the Facebook Gallery and the Swirlydoos Challenge Forums...

Bec's Card Challenge for March, featuring a tutorial and an amazing prize, is all about dies.
Here's one of three cards that Betty created; I love her cluster of flowers and butterflies and die-cut vines.


We're into our final week of the March Round Robin and that means that it's time to sign up for the April Challenge. The theme this time is "Clean and Simple", and the twist is to do it Swirly Style! To find out just what that means (and to sign up for a slot), click on the link HERE.



DT Coordinator Kim has been coming up with some incredible sketches for our monthly Sketch Challenge; this one is part of  the February Love Letters Kit. To see what the Swirlydoos Design Team created, take a look HERE

Here's Ginny's take, with her wonderful use of color and mixed media and one marvelous photo.


The ATF (All That Flutters) Challenge is now open; and the rules are simple: create a project that includes something that flutters - butterflies, dragonflies, bees, angels, fairies, whatever you happen to have on hand. I just love Kim's stunning (and inspirational) page!!!

Hi everybody! Helena here today to share two more layouts with the totally amazing October kit  - Treasured Yesterdays. This kit has so many pretty embellies and papers in it - I could create forever!
 
The first page I'm showing you is a playful, fun one. I decided to use a banner as my main design, and used the beautiful Prima Epiphany papers both for the background and smaller pieces beneath my photos. I have then decorated with flowers from the main kit and flower add on, and the wood Icons and stick pins from the main kit.

 
A couple of close-ups for you:
 

 
I added small pieces of cheese-cloth under the photos, distressed the paper pieces and also painted with some white gesso, to get texture and dimension.

 
My second layout today is a circular one. I love making layouts in different shapes. I have used a plate as a template, and cut two papers (Prima Epiphany collection) with a regular pair of scissors, and one paper using a decorative scissors. This way I get a shabby, distressed look, and a nice frame on my page.
 
 
I have decorated with flowers from the main kit and flower add on, and also a couple of embellies from the main kit (wood icon and stick pin from Prima's Epiphany Collection). Under the photo I have layered a few of the journaling cards from the main kit (distressed the edges of course!).
 

 
Thank you for stopping by the Swirlydoos blog today!
 
xoxo

Happy Saturday, everyone! I'm sharing a project I made with the Lady Belle kit (and a couple of things from my stash) today. I was so inspired by the Maja Design paper, and I just KNEW I had to use it on this Kaisercraft wishing well that I've had in a box for two years!


And, here's the video:


   


I hope you like it.

Enjoy the rest of your Saturday!
