I guess most of you know that I'm a card-maker at heart.... there are times when I dabble in mini albums and small projects but I seem to shy away from 12x12 scrapbook LO :P
And yes, I'm still a bit shy..... I am definitely making a commitment to make two 12x12 pages by end of October but erm, for now, here's a 6x6.... start small, then we work our way up, k? :D
This LO is based on this "Photo Inspiration Challenge" by Papier. Here's the very lovely photo... how not to be inspired? *winks*
Very lovely kitchen and colours, no? I love it! It looks so clean and fresh... and since I don't create LOs a lot, I had to think quite hard to create mine.. hehe... I wish I'm a tad bit like Jessy, Amy or Savitri. They seem to create LOs effortlessly :)
Anyway, here's my take based on the photo above. This is an 'up-cycled' calendar... you know, those table calendar we throw away each year end? I hoarded saved some and it's proving to be useful! I love that it's already sturdy and makes a nice piece of art, ya? :)
I used glossy accent to highlight some of the tiles too and even misted the base and the flowers with gold iridescent spray. It looks a little sparkly :) Oh, and thank you Cindy for the lovely lace ribbon and doily... they help make this project work! :)
Love how it's already made to stand on the table! hehe... yeshhh, I'm lazy so this helps! :)

You did such a great job that I think you should do more layouts from now on! Seriously! What a lovely piece of art!
Oooo.....this is gorgeous! Can make me one?
Beautifully done! Ever since I started scrapbooking, I collect just about anything and everything! Now I know that those table calenders have sum use..I shud start collecting them too lol..! ;)
So now that you did two of these you NEED to do that first 12x12. It really is not that bad. You don't have to use up the whole page :)
