Sunny Bunny

Happy Royal Wedding day! It was great to see it all today, hope you caught some of it wherever you are in the world! I have another lovely layout from guest designer, Kat to share with you today. I love the yellow paint on this it matches the kit really well.

I also love how Kat has torn the turquiose crepe paper and how she has wrapped the thread from the kit around the photo. And what a cute bunny!!

Hope this has inspired you to get in some crafty time over the weekend to create!
Thanks for stopping by!

Easter Cards

As Easter is nearly upon us I thought I would pop in and show you a couple of Easter cards that Kat and I created with the Spring to Life kit.
First up is Kat's, she was very clever with this card and punched lots of borders that matched the one in the kit and covered the card with them! Kat said she thought the journaling card was beautiful enough to featured by itself! That was lovely of her though I must admit I do love these journaling cards, if I do say so myself!!
 Next up is a card I created with the kit. I made a chick shape and cover it with glue and then crunched up the yellow tissue paper to cover it.
Hope you all have a lovely long Easter weekend and get to enjoy some sunshine wherever you are!
Thanks for stopping by!

A spring kit layout

I have to share the first layout that Kat, April's guest designer created with the 'Spring to Life kit with you today.
 It's a gorgeous layout, I love the way she has created a layout about herself, a non spring themed layout with the spring kit. How great does that looped gingham ribbon look?! She has also punched her own butterflies from the crepe and tissue paper.
These letter's Kat's used match the kit brilliantly!

Here's some more details about the DIY Spring mini book, it has chipboard covers that are painted with my own design as shown here:
It's roughly 6x4", has 5 double sided white pages and lots of embellishments to decorate it with.
It will be added to the shop soon!

Thanks for popping by!

Spring to Life kit

The Spring to Life kit is now in the shop!
This kit is full of the joys of spring! It's good for Easter too! Lots of pretty colours, pink, yellow and turquoise.
As usual there's lots of thing exclusive to The Make and Create shop, like handmade journaling cards, unique journaling spots and April calender designed by me and 5 unique, handmade embellishments.

Here's a card I made with the kit for Mother's day, it would also be great as an Easter card by changing the greeting obviously!
I will also be launching something very exciting soon, a DIY Spring Mini Book Kit. It will include everything you need to complete a lovely spring or Easter mini book, including the book and things from the Spring to Life kit to decorate it. (picture coming) I have a couple ready but if you would be ineterested in having one please let me know by emailing makeandcreate@hotmail.com or by leaving a comment, thanks.

Really hope you like the kit!
