Mid Week Inspiration - Friends of APOCD

Hey everyone,

Today I thought I would blog and share some gorgeous creations I have seen around the web using APOCD goodies.

The first is a lovely layout from our March Guest Designer Lisa Oxley. Lisa created this one using the March Main kit. You can see more of Lisa's gorgeous work on her blog here

The second is a layout from my friend Michelle. Michelle is a big help to me at APOCD and supports me without fail to pack your scrumptious kits. She also is an avid project lifer but of late has rekindled her love of traditional scrapping. She created this layout using our March Cupcake kit. You can see more of her gorgeous work on here blog here

Michelle also created 2 cool layouts using the April Cupcake kit, which had a lot of Heidi in it and also some gouache and a sumo brush :)

And this one using one of my favourite kits, the May Main kit.

Another friend of APOCD is the super talented Charmane Koch. She has her own online store Charms Creations, where she sells handmade felt/doily embellishments. She created this page for the April white with one challenge, but also used some *bits* from March Cupcake Kit - heart stencil, chipboard stars, paper plane flair & sequins.

Kristie-Anne, is a long time subscriber and supporter of APOCD. It is so nice to see Kristie sharing her creations on our Facebook page with us. Thanks so much for sharing Kristie! She created this layout with the March kit and using inspiration from Mercy Tiara's scrapping videos on you tube. 

Our next layout is from another subber to APOCD and a super scrapper, Rikki Graziani. I do not know how this lady keeps up with all her awesome commitments and retains such a high standard of scrapping. This one was created for a Scrapbooking top 50 cyber challenge, where the challenge was to scrapbook a celebrity scrapper. In this case the celebrity scrapper was me, lol, I do by no means consider myself a celebrity but it was flattering to be asked nonetheless :) She has used the February Main kit. You can see her blog here.

Our last share for today is a Project Life style share from Manda Moore. Manda has recently taken a love to creating Scrapbooking Process videos and has her own You Tube channel which she updates regularly. She used bits and pieces from the March Cupcake kit to create this bright and fun layout. She even made a process video using it.

I hope you have enjoyed this post today, for something fun and different and jam packed with inspiration!

Incase you were thinking about it we only have one left of both the June Main Kit and Cupcake kit available in our store. So head there now if you do not want to miss out.

GUEST DESIGNER - Lisa Oxley - Rise and Shine

Hey everyone! I am back again today sharing a gorgeous page from Lisa our Guest designer using our March Main Cake kit. 

Lisa has created this gorgeous page titled 'Rise & Shine' for us all to be inspired by. 

Here is a little bit about the layout in Lisa's own words:

I am a sucker for getting up with the sparrows , as my workday starts at 5 am , so any opportunity to get up and out of the house during the week is something i love to do .
Dawn walks along the beach, which I live very close too, are a ritual on off days.

My girlfriend in these photos is now living in Shanghai and this was our last beach walk together before she returned to China.

I love this blue piece of Pattern paper from the APOCD kit,it was calling me to use it .. so out came the house paint again,plus some white embossing powder to highlight the drips across the page .

Washi tape ,some chevron and heart cut outs from a couple of pieces of pattern paper from the kit and a little of my own tissue paper stash added some extra embellishment.

I detailed with my trusty black pen and this layout came together very easily .

Some detailed shots which really showcase the texture and dimension Lisa creates on her pages:

Stay tuned for some more inspiration coming from our designers Lisa and Natalie :)
