Well, I haven’t scrapped in a while, but I have had some ideas running around in my head. I finally managed to get one of those ideas down on paper for this fortnight’s Journal Challenges challenge. I never took any photos of Luke when he went to speech therapy. At the time I didn’t deem […]
A couple of things. Amy turned two on wednesday. She is growing up so fast. We bought her a scooter as she is always trying to keep up with the older kids. She can’t work it, so we just push her along. I think the elbow and knee pads make her happier than the scooter
A layout for the Journal Challenges blog. This fortnight’s prompt is “Listen up, because this is important!” A little embarrassing photo there of me. As Steve likes to say “I wish I had seen your school photo’s before we got married.” Yeah well…
A layout share. This one is in this week’s newsletter from The Scrapbook Establishment. I used the Little Yellow Bicycle’s Zinnia range. Well, the school holidays are almost at a close. This holidays have been fantastic! We have done heaps of stuff. Usually we are either sick or it rains or it is summer (ugh!).
I have 2 layouts to share today. The first is for the cybercrop happening over at The Scrapbook Establishment. It was my pleasure to set the inspiration challenge. Here’s the inspiration: Here’s the other criteria for the challenge: 1. Your layout must be either pink or blue or a combination of both pink and blue.
Another layout, this one only took me 5 days to complete. And I wonder why I never get much scrapping done. Truth be told, I love the creating more than the finished product. I did this layout for this fortnight’s prompt over at Journal Challenges. I am totally digging symmetry at the moment. Another thing,
So. Here we are again. So soon. This time with a layout. I know. It’s been a long time coming. This layout was started about 6 weeks ago now, maybe even 7 weeks. A long time, anyway. I originally started it for one of the Journal Challenges prompts. I guess the thing that held me
I don’t really have much to say today, just a bit of a share. Here are some newsletter layouts for TSE: I got to work with Scrap Within Reach’s Industrial Park range. Really masculine and grungy. Really fun just to let go and have fun. Also, I have only about 10 pages to go until
Some layout I did for this week’s newsletter over at The Scrapbook Establishment. I got to use Webster’s Pages, Sweet as Cherry Pie range. I was very overwhelmed at first, but when you cut it up into smaller bits, strips etc, I find it easier to get my head around it! I know, this is
*Gasp* An update WITH a layout! It was my turn to do the sketch challenge for August over at The Scrapbook Establishment. This is what I came up with, it’s a bit simple, but I have had these photos printed for years and I just wanted them scrapped, you know?
Now, I have no idea who reads my blog, but if you have been checking in for a while, you may remember that some time ago, like in April 2008, I picked up some material to make Amy a quilt. It took me about 2 months to make the top and sew it to the
My Journal It challenge layout: Yep. I used bias binding around the egde. I was sewing on this layout and something in my little silver bucket caught my attention. Just what I needed to finish off my layout. Just a note, if you are going to used binding, just make sure you trim the sides
Some layout shares for The Scrapbook Establishment. I used Creative Imaginations Rock-A-Bye Baby range. Alright, well, I am off to scrapbook while Amy is having a nap! 😀
Who’d have thought I would be back so soon, especially with another layout! Not I! So, I was cleaning up my space and I was putting away some papers and I realised that I have waaay too many Basic Grey papers. This is what 159 full sheets of BG PP looks like. It was originally
See, I told you I would be back soon with a layout. The challenge for Make Believe Masters over at Scrap Therapy was to scrap a double page layout using at least 6 photos. Here is my effort. It took me 2 hours this morning as it had to be uploaded by noon. I made
A card I made for a card swap over at TSE. No peeking Jaimee. LOL. You know, for someone who never liked making cards, I sure am enjoying this card swap!
I seriously need to clean up my scrapbooking area. It’s a mess. And I have been on a buying binge of late. Ssshh. Don’t tell Steve. It wouldn’t be so bad if I actually scrapped more to use it up. I guess I should be called a collector instead of a scrapbooker. Sigh. Here are
I have been busy. Scrapping actually. Since the last layout I posted on my blog, I have scrapped 6 layouts. Impressive for me, but they were on deadlines so I had no choice really. Here is one I can share for a little competition happening over at Scrap Therapy.
A layout of Amy. I had this monster chip character for ages but I never thought to colour it in pink and use it on a girls layout! I just got my trusty zig out and used the fat end because I originally tried my hand at flocking, but I failed miserably. Lucky there are
Hmmm. May already. Well, that means Journal It’s first challenge is up on the blog. Here is my take on the prompt, When I was Little:
