Hi Everyone,
Got a new kit for you and this one is for the girls. The page is called MAKE A WISH and would suit any girlie photos, especially little princesses. The colours are beautiful lilacs and turquoise.



I have done alot of the hard work for you already by providing you with a punched scollap border and also 2 transparency dragonflies which have been coloured to suit the layout.




You will , however, get the chance to create 2 very cute ribbon flowers, using a simple gathering technique.
The rhinestones add to the feminine feel of the page and the paper distressing techniques help to give the page an informal appearance.




Please let me know if you are interested in ordering a kit ....melodyk@mweb.co.za

Hi Everyone,

Time for a new kit. I know they are slow in coming but please bear with me.

The latest kit is for someone awesome in your life. It is called ABSOLUTELY AWESOME YOU and the colouring is ideal for boys photos although there is no reason that any awesome photos could be used.

The layout includes quite a few chipboard piece, both ready made and some you need to cut yourself.
Tags, arrow and circles add interest to the layout ans assist in emphasizing the title.

Should you be interested in ordering a kit, please drop me an e-mail (melodyk@mweb.co.za) or send sms order.

Hi Everyone,
Well at last I am back. I am sure most of you thought I had let the planet but in actually fact I just moved house. Admittedly, it was into a brand new house which still needed quite a bit of energy to get finished. Things are still not completely done, but then is a house really ever finished.

The first kit for this year is called DARE TO DREAM. It is most suited to school portraits and class photos (I'm sure most of you have some packed in a drawer somewhere), although I don't feel that it is restricted to that. The double page layout features colours that most school photos would be suited to and I have included some distressing techniques to bring a more informal appearance to the layout.

Some of the distressing techniques include crumpling, folding and inking
I also made use of staples to follow through on the school theme as well as the distressed look. This is optional though

I have included an envelope as part of the layout to store reports or memorabilia pertaining to that particular year Contact me via e-mail (melodyk@mweb.co.za) or sms should you wish to order a kit.

Hi there everyone,
Can you believe that it is the middle of November already! This certainly has been a year that has flown by.

My new kit is called "SO HAPPY TOGETHER". It is a lovely fresh cool coloured layout that accomadates 3 horizontal photos. As the title implies it is themed around "together". I made use of sepia photos but you are not restricted to that. The background colour of the layout is white, although the photo doesn't reflect that very well.
There are 2 main techniques on the layout. The first one is the rosette flowers, which I have done in a kit previously, but have since discovered an easier and more effective way of doing. Once you know how to do these flowers you can use them on other layouts and even greeting cards too.

The second technique involves creating paper tubes from patterned paper. These are packed tighly together to form an interesting accent.

Hi everyone,
It has been a bit longer than usual since my last kit! I guess life is just busy!!!
My new kit is called PARADISE FOUND and themed around a beach day or holiday. The beautiful grey blue papers emphasize the relaxed feel of the layout and would suit colour and black and white photos. The layout can accomodate 5 photos.
The use of net on the layout further enhances the beach or seaside feel.

I have included carbon paper in the kit to allow you to transfer the word FOUND onto the page. The script font also adds to the relaxed feel of the layout.


Please let me know by e-mail (melodyk@mweb.co.za) or phone should you want to order a kit.

Hi everyone,
My newest kit is definitely for the girls! It is a very feminine layout that will suit both young and older girls. The layout is called "SHE LOVES TO...". The colouring is pinks and greys and black and white photos work perfectly. The layout allows for 6 photos, 5 of which are small squares.


The main technique used on the layout is paper curling. I have made a curled fringe along the bottom of the photo mounts as well as accent pieces on the blocks.

I have also made use of a masking technique to create one of the blocks on the right page as well as to add words to the title.
In the kit I have included other printed words such as Dream, Smile, Play etc, to complete the title.
