what to share, what to share

As I'm typing this I really should be creating, but instead I'm trying to blog, lol and listening to the wind outside, sounds nasty.

Trying to remember what I have to share and what I dont, hmmmm, right now its not much

Flat Out - This was a Creative Scrappers sketch nearly 2 weeks ago now, OMG I am slack :( using the AWESOME Little Boy papers from Echo Park, they now have Little Girl too, I'm waiting for it to wing its way over now :) gosh I LOVE ANNA. Anyway this was a fun sketch, pretty much kept with it. All about Dea and his full on, flat out pace.

Miss Paige - this is the current Get Picky Challenge, fantastic sketch :) you really need to give it a go. This is all about Charlotte's best friend Paige, they are starting school together on Monday, ekkkkk. two little school girls. She is incredibly shy (wouldn't think so by these photos) but it's taken a long time for her to warm up to me and actually talk. Has the most gorgeous red curly hair and stunning eyes too. I can see her and Charlotte getting up to quiet a bit of mischief over the years ;) Using some fantastic bits and pieces from Prima, totally LOVE that iron on.

Right now that is it.

Here's hoping I have something to show over the next few days :)

Creative Scrappers

I had trouble with my internet at the end of last week and never managed to get this sent in time but here is my take on the Creative Scrappers sketch. FANTASTIC sketch and you should all hop over and have a go at it.

Family - One of our photos taken by Ali Russell these photos are actually what we used for Christmas presents to all our parents and grandparents and even siblings ;) saved alot of thinking. I simply ADORE this photo, even though Adam was getting grizzly and Deacon was a whisker of throwing a tanty, Ali captured it perfectly. I've used the new Websters Pages Wonderfall for this plus a couple other things

Materials: Card: Bazzill; Paper: Websters Pages; Other: Websters pages whimsies, stickers, trim, leaves and flower, Prima flower and trim; Jenni Bowlin pin, ticket and butterfly; pen, helmar adhesives (450 Quickdry, liquid scrap dots)

Thanks for peaking

:)

What Can I Share????

Only realised that I'm so behind in sharing a few layouts, hehehehe and here I was thinking that I had nothing to blog about. Oops

(Un)Happy Birthday - Poor Dea was just miserable when we had a birthday party for him. Using the AWESOME Pink Paislee Parisian Anthology. These papers are right up there as a favourite for me. So versatile. I created this for my first Step by Step for Annas

Weird Crazy Kids - Creative Scrappers Sketch 134. Using the fantastic My Minds Eye Fine and Dandy range. This was part of my DT Kit again from Annas. We took a few Christmas photos after we decorated our tree, way back on the 1st December. Well the kids were high on candy canes and went CRAZY. Was fun and I love the shots that I did get.

It's A Love Thang - Wow I really am behind, this was the Get Picky challenge for the end of last month. I actually made the biggest mistake on this but you wouldn't know. It started off just being the large photo of Charlotte. Hmmmm makes a lot of sense right, going a challenge for a MULTI photo site and I'm using one photo. Lucky I was able to print off a few smaller photos and adhere them to the bottom of the larger photo. hehehehehe. You do still have time to enter into this challenge too. Most beautiful Bo Bunny papers and Embellies.

Crazy Love - Another of my DT projects for Annas and again using the AWESOME Bo Bunny. It's hard to believe that these photos were taken back in July. How much the kids have grown up. Can't believe in a years time I'll be getting Zac ready for school.

FINALLY

So In Love - Right from the moment they met him they have been smothering Adam with hugs and kisses. Very lucky that I got this photo. Beautiful papers from American Crafts. Plus the most glorious embellies. SIGH.

I think that is all for the moment. I know I have other things to share but I don't want to ramble on and on ;)

Thanks for stopping by

Creative Scrappers #124

My First Creative Scrappers Layout, totally ADORE this sketch

Blur - Deacon is forever running, whether it is to get somewhere, or to get away from you..... in fact he ran away from me today while we were shopping, grrrr. No wonder I don't allow him out of the trolley.  Bits and pieces from older October Afternoon collections. I love how they are a company that never seems to date :) some Co'ordinations for the background which I've given a good sand, love this too :)
