FOTD- Spring Pastels

Hello,
Is anyone else really fed up with all of the rain and grey weather we're having? I'm so desperate to start wearing all of my pretty summer dresses or even just a little cardigan rather than a thick coat!
Alas, for now I'll just have to channel the summer vibe through my make-up. Today I've been wearing pretty pastel shades.

I seem to have pretty big eye bags here after my night of not much sleep last night but other than that, I was really happy with todays look.

What I used:

Face:

• Estee Lauder Invisible Fluid Foundation in 1NW2
• Calvin Klein Long Wear Clarifying Powder in Light
• Benefit The POREfessional
• E.l.f Healthy Glow Bronzer in Luminance
• Benefit Dandelion
• E.l.f Natural Radiance Blusher in Coy

Eyes:

• Chilli Pepper pastel eye palette nude and teal
• Rimmel Londond Eyebrow Pencil in Black/brown
• Rimmel London Scandaleyes in Extreme Black

Lips:

• Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub
• Collection (2000) Cream Puff in Cotton Candy

I really like light, fairly natural looking make-up so these are all products that I reach for pretty often. I know there has been a lot of disagreement over Cream Puff amongbeauty bloggers recently, but I personally love it. It might be that I happen to suit this colour better than some people do, but I haven't found any problems at all. The smell and taste is yummy, the consistency creamy and the pigmentation high quality.

What do you think of todays look? Have you tried Cream Puff?

From the Scrapbook #4

Hello lovely blog readers,
I am so happy; today I became the proud owner of a gorgeous dark blue leather Osprey London handbag. I am in love with it! And after being good and saving a lot of money lately, I thought I deserved a treat :) Isn't it beautiful?

I think we're all rather fed up of winter now and are looking forward to spring arriving so for this week's From the Scrapbook theme I chose Pastel Colours to create some pretty bits and pieces for you to use.

This sweet blog header suits most colour schemes and can be personalised by adding your blog name to the empty purple backing and also by adding a tag line along the floral banner. I like the simplicity and I can't get enough of chevrons at the moment. This scrap can be saved as a JPEG or PNG file.

This scrap is perfect for adding to any scrapbooking project. The shield frame is left transparent so that you are able to add your own photo and the speech bubble allows you to add a description or quote. I have also kept the chevron pattern light so that text can easily be added here should you wish. Save this scrap as a PNG file.

Finally, this little tag is a sweet addition to a scrapbook page or could even be used as an invitation to a tea party where you can hand write the details on the back of the tag or something like that. I've been looking for an excuse to use the little purple tea cup for a while now!

So there we go for another week. I hope you like these bits and pieces and, as always, I'd love to see them in action.
Have a nice evening :)
