Fairies and flowers and crystals ... oh my!

A friend gave me some very special creations that he made with bits and pieces from my Fairy Belle and Nature Garden collections yesterday.  Wanna see?! They are so awesome!  Thank you so much Frank!!

Here they are. You won't believe how gorgeous these are ...
The first is a journal album created with the Nature Garden collection. Love the Graphic45 door knob on the front too!  You can see the instructions for this journal on Frank's blog HERE.

The next little gorgeous creation is a mini key plate album. How cute is this?

You can catch Frank as a guest creative on the Prima Blog in January, and he is just about to launch his very own amazing online scrapbook magazine, coming soon to www.thepaperhaus.com

Don't forget you can get my Nature Garden and Fairy Belle Collections here in my Etsy store:

Your Inspiring Designs

Just have to share some gorgeous digital layouts using Jodie Lee digital products I found cruising the Jessica Sprague Gallery today!

Jana Holden from the Creative Team at Jessica Sprague has created a gorgeous layout using the Jodie Lee Chai Tea Papers (below). So stunning!

Jennifer Papadimitriou has made a super-sweet retro themed layout using the Jodie Lee At Grandma's Digital Duo - Crochet Fun. 

laurmadsen used embellishments from the Jodie Lee Ooh La La Kit, and a paper from the Jodie Lee French Market Papers to create this pretty layout:

completelyrandom used the Jodie Lee Art House Textured Overlays 2,  Vintage Brush Club Kit #1, and French Market Papers to create this gorgeous work of art:

Mandi used the Jodie Lee Vintage Brush Club 1,  and the Jodie Lee Art House Textures 1 to create a pretty cover for a custom mini album.  Very inspiring. I love that idea of cutting up a whole bunch of papers to create a patchwork design!

and if that's not gorgeous enough ... Mandi also created this adorable Artist Trading Card (below) which could also pass as a business card! She used the Jodie Lee Gypsy Canvas Textures, Antique Junk Brushes, Steam Punk Brushes, and the Vintage Etsy Banner Set 1. 

and finally, mindeth used the Jodie Lee Gypsy Canvas Textures to create this stunning layout that I'm sure she'll cherish for years to come... isn't it so, so pretty?

and finally, Camille Robinson created a stunning hybrid album from the Jodie Lee Gorgeous Hybrid Bracket Album. This is really beautiful. I want one!! :) I retired this hybrid album, but if I get anyone interested, I will list it again!

There are many more digital delights to come ... I will feature some more next week!

Your Inspiring Creations!

It's really inspiring to see what some crafty talents have been whipping up with the designs from my new book 'Create Your Own Printable Scrapbook Papers'. The book is now available for sale on www.GypsyChickStudio.com and Amazon.

Check out what my good friend Paul Browning from the UK has created! I just adore Paul's style and love checking out his blog to see his latest card designs.  

These are the papers Paul chose from the book, then customized in Photoshop to use in his card designs. 

And here is the beautiful card and tag he created, using the papers.

Aren't they just so beautiful?! Thanks once again for the inspiration Paul, and do hop over to Paul's BLOG to check out all his GORGEOUS creations!
