Pixie Dust .....



Hello ... 
I hope you are having a good day ... 
Thank you all so much for your sweet comments and your well wishes for my son ... our GP agrees with the hospital diagnosis ... a long word I cannot pronounce let alone spell ... but it means inflammation of the inner eyelids ... he still has to see an optician but he is a lot better thank God ...
A couple of days ago I received my Midsummer Nights Dream kit from Pixie Dust Paperie ... a beautiful kit full of gorgeous papers, embellishments and ribbons ... I couldn't wait to start creating with it ... there are a lot of photos here ... a journal / album ... I will be adding to this ... namely journalling ... notes and things ... but this is what I have done so far .... I added some bits from my scraps but nearly everything is from the kit ...




I just adore those beautiful charms ... they are quite heavy too and I've decided I am going to use one as a handbag charm ... 


Now this was sheer fluke! I was using the reverse side of the paper and when I turned this piece over I couldn't believe that I had cut a piece that actually said "Journal Des Ros" ... on the paper it is Journal des Rose ... but I had unknowingly cut away the 'e' ... Perfect!!


I used some of my quotes ... from the little book of enlightenment
This beautiful lady and I have gone through a lot together ... she is my angel


My boy ... some days he has a moustache ... some days not  ... but he is and always will be my greatest joy ....



The purple dragonfly is from my stash as is the heart frame ... but how beautiful is that paper and lace ... even the words are in the kit


Lots of butterflies in this kit ... sweet Kirsty even put a little packet of real tiny ones in ... so this sure qualifies for the competition at Pixie Dust Paperie
(burlap and heart from my stash) ... those pretty resin flowers are also part of the kit ...


Beautiful ribbon to match the flowers ... 2 different shades in this kit ...


The clock face and the buttons are from my stash ... but I added one of those tiny butterflies to the clock face too ... and there are a whole lot of stickers to use



I fussy cut this butterfly boy ... and I love those big felt flowers ... tulle from my stash 
... nearly done ...



Angels come in all forms ... and this beautiful shepherd really was an angel ... she came into my life at one of my lowest points ... I once told you that though I rescued her ... really, she rescued me 


And this is it so far ... and I have tons of stuff left ... so I will have to make some more of these ...
I hope you have enjoyed seeing this ...
Have a wonderful weekend 


Till soon

Hey Ros... love your new background!
Wow... fabulous album. There is so much in this month's kit... don't you think that they are just the greatest? Kirsty is amazing at putting these together... it all mixes and matches, and from kit to kit also! I bought "ingredients" for two chipboard albums, but haven't gotten started on them yet... thank you for the inspiration. As always... your work is gorgeous!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hello dearie :)
My oh my you really have outdone yourself. There is not one page of this album that I don't love. I love all the journaling. Everything you wrote is so so true.
The pictures are so lovely to look at; and the one of you and your dog melts my heart. I know she meant the world to you and how much you miss her.
Paired up with gorgeous embellishments this is a precious jewel. Love it!
Have a great weekend!XXXXXX

Stella said...

Did you change the background of your blog? GORGEOUS!

Ros, I think you outdid yourself here with your stunningly beautiful album, if ever you CAN outdo yourself... There's SOOO much love in every single page, with every picture I was like {sigh} and oh wow, all superlatives are not enough for this BEAUTY!!

I indeed enjoyed seeing this - your journal de Ros is pure eyecandy!! All pages are so very beautiful!

Joanne Leddy said...

Absolutely and utterly gorgeous! Each and every page is a treasure ... wow. I love this. I've soooo wanted to create an album such as this. I have two waiting on my shelf - it's a daunting task and looks so consuming. But projects such as this are pushing me to start!

Chris said...

Oooohh Ros, I was so tempted by this kit but talked myself out of it. Instead I shall just sit here and admire all the absolutely gorgeous work you've done with it.

Kirsty Vittetoe said...
