Bazzill Basics Cardstock - Bazzill White, Admiral (included in kit), Wildberry Pie, Mexican Poppy, Grenadine & Hillary (Extra Pack).

Geisha Girl - The photo in this layout is one of a series my father took while experimenting with a camera and colour photo processing back in the 1950's

The base for this layout is a sheet of Tutu Pink Bazzill cardstock. I cut a piece of Cherry Blossoms paper tearing the edges to end up with a piece 8" x 11", which I placed towards the bottom of the cardstock.

I cut the two doilies in half and used three piece to tuck into the top of the paper. More of a lacy effect was created with a 12" length of 1.25" white cotton lace.

I printed my photo, mounted it onto some white card and placed it to the right side of the layout. Using the Cricut I cut some cherry blossom flowers in several sizes, and the Bazzill White, Grenadine & Black Bazzill. I also cut an 8" ring and some large swirls, also in black.

My journalling was printed onto some white card, and tucked it into the top of the patterned paper.

My title was cut using some gold cardstock and the Cricut, and arranged long the outside of the black ring.

I placed the Rosie's Studio Bayfair dragonfly at the top right of the layout. Finally, I added a touch of sparkle to the centre of each blossom, with some Gold Coast, Nuvo Glitter Drops.

I'm Gonna Learn How To Fly - These photos were taken when we celebrated my father's 70th birthday with a Tiger Moth flight. After the flight, the grandchildren were allowed to sit in the cockpit for a photo.



This layout started with the sheet of Postcard paper, I gutted the centre, making a frame of 0.75" including the airmail style border. I flipped the gutted centre over to show the blue world map side. I distressed and inked all the edges, and glued them to a spare sheet of 12" x 12" paper.

Using Admiral Bazzill I cut a title and arrows using the Tim Holtz, Thinlits, Sizzix die set - Vault World Travel. I also cut a globe with the Destination die set.

With the Vault Noteworthy die set, I cut a clipboard with silver Miri card and Kraft Bazzill. The note paper was cut from a scrap of lined paper. I added my journalling to the note paper.

My photos were mounted onto some of the Wildberry Pie Bazzill cardstock, They were arranged onto the centre of the layout and tied together with some red, white and blue twine.

Using the two Woodware junk Label Stamps from the kit, I stamped them onto some scrap card with black Archival Ink. I cut these out and inked the edges with Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink.

All the pieces were arranged around the photos, with the addition of a few of the Rosie's Studio Bayfair Sentiments Ephemera from the kit.

I used the manufacture's strip and cut both 'Born To Travel' labels from it, then arranged these under the clipboard.

Finally, I scattered the Dress It Up red hearts from the kit, over the page.

That's all for today, I will be back with the June kit soon.
Thanks for looking.
