Loving You Forever | Little Birdie Crafts

#kerriegurney #littlebirdiecrafts

Hi Everyone Kerrie here with my first post for Little Birdie Crafts Blog as part of their team  for 2020
I am so loving this True Love collection from Little Birdie Crafts and cannot wait to create more projects with it

As soon as I opened my design team box and saw this collection I knew it would be so perfect for this photo of my daughter's friends who got engaged in Paris in front of the Eiffel Tower, definitely a True Love moment that needed to be documented



start by mixing Misty Rose Chalk Paint in with Mixed Media Paste


apply paste randomly using Script Stencil to background patterned paper


add some splatters using Rose Pink Color Splash Spray


add layers and flower clusters, finish off by applying Gel Medium to flowers and randomly in places on layers and then while still wet sprinkle on Shimmer Hodge Podge to add sparkle





finish off by watering down White Gesso and adding splatters, making sure to cover photo

You & Me = Happiness | Cocoa Vanilla Studio

#kerriegurney #cocoavanillastudio

Hi all, it's Kerrie back with a super quick but oh so beautiful layout.
This layout came together so quickly because of this gorgeous wreath pattern paper from Cocoa Vanilla Studio's Happiness collection.


a few layers of patterned paper under my photo, pop on some diecut embellishments add some paint splatters and done in 30 mins.


As always I have used foam tape to make my embellishments pop and add dimension to my layout



 Happy Creating

Creating with Anna Komenda | Cocoa Vanilla Studio

#kerriegurney #cocoavanillastudio

Hello everyone, Kerrie here and I am finally sharing my layouts I created in Anna Komenda's classes at The Crafty Chain  earlier this year using Cocoa Vanilla Studio's Happiness collection
It was so so lovely meeting Anna and doing her classes, we are certainly blessed with lots of fabulous international tutors visiting us here in Brissie.


I have used photos of my daughters and niece at my Mother in Law's 80th birthday and I think they are pretty perfect for my layouts so I am glad I waited before adding photos


my rainbow is certainly no where near as beautiful as Anna's but hey it was fun to create and when you are using watercolour paper sometimes watercolours just don't run they way you would like


 Happy Creating

Celebrating 21

Earlier this week we celebrated a big milestone in our family, my eldest daughter Ashleigh turned 21
I cannot believe I am now the mother of a 21 year old ...when did that happen? ..what happened to the last 21 years?
Not only is my Number one child 21, she moved out of home on the 1st of January this year ...so 2 huge milestones for her this year.

Ashleigh didn't want a party just a family dinner with us, her besties and the grandparents, so we went to Ceylon Inn for some delicious Indian for her special birthday ...here are some snaps, unfortunately we were too busy enjoying ourselves and didn't take many photos.



the very quick Birthday Card (which i forgot to write in )


Pressies from the family



the invitation, I printed it out using my Epson PictureMate PM235 (love this printer)... I know it doesn't match the present and cake theme but it matches the venue :)

Clinton, Ashleigh & Shannen besties since meeting in Y8 (2006)


Ashleigh, Shannen, Me and Taylah


Cake Time back at home
