March's First Big Reveal

This month I was a busy little bee and managed to complete three projects with my monthly kit. This is the Bo Bunny Word Album that i decorated in preparation for my babies first birthday....

I would highly recommend this month's kit - the papers are soooooooooooooooo fun and fabby!

If interested in subscribing to our monthly kits email Louise at info@cleocrafts.co.uk. The kit will then be on general release to non-subbies from the 1st of March.... however, there will be an extremely limited number of kits so get in quick!

oooh! with all these sneakies i am really spoiling you!

bright and funky swirliness!

The first sneaky of my layout for March's Monthly Kit.... despite all the sneakies below we still haven't had any guesses as to the paper... are you all stumped? some extra blooms for the first subbie to leave a comment with the range of papers and the company that designed them

sneaky, sneaky, sneaky!

well, here is my second sneaky peek for march's Monthly Kit - aren't the papers FUNKY!!!!!!!! I love them! ... and you can't really tell, but the imaginisce flowers are made of some really cool velour type material - they are so lush in the flesh!

Keep watching this space for more sneaky peeks in the next few days - i have lots this month!

March Sneakies

Time flies by when you are having fun!

I decided to make a scrummy Bo Bunny My Word Album for my babies first birthday - a summary of his first year. I couldn't resist using the papers and embellishments from our March Monthly Kit. They are so bright and funky they were just screaming out to be used for this purpose. Above is my first sneaky of the album... can any subbies guess the papers straight off?

Winner of our Blog Challenge is......

Lorraine! Well done! Tara will put together a lovely goody bag for your prize!

Cat among the pigeons - Louise style

Here's my effort at the same cybercrop class......

UKS Cybercrop

Finally, after much deliberation, i have been brave enough to try one of the UKS Cybercrop Classes... and i totally loved it! Here is my interpretation of the 'Cat amongst the Pigeons' Class.

Do you think DS will forgive me in time?

Tara's present for my DH birthday......

Tara made this lovely collage for my DH's birthday last month - using our Daisy Bucket papers.... we just love it!!! Thanks sis!

Cleo Crafts Scrapping Retreat First Challenge......

Hi retreat-attendees.... here is our first pre-crop challenge.... you can either email me the entry or bring it along with you to the weekend if you have too much stash to carry!!!!! This sketch is from www.pagemaps.com :-)

February's Blog Challenge

I thought that with a new month we should have a new blog challenge.... being February how can the challenge not be a little bit about LOVE?

So, the challenge is to give us your interpretation of the above sketch and to include at least one love related element - a wee heart, some words of love or a lovey dovey piccie.

Entries to be emailed to info@cleocrafts.co.uk by Sunday 8th Feb at 8pm... Our favourite will win a mystery love themed bundle worth £5. Have fun!

(PS. My Layout has been created using SPLENDID papers from Fancy Pants Designs.... yum scrum papers!)

Terri's recipe box

One of our newer subbies has decorated this gorgeous recipe box using her February kit and I just had to blog it on here... we have one non-subbie kit left to go on sale this week - if you are interested, keep your eyes on UKS!
