Cutesy stuff this My Little Shoebox

In amongst my DT Pack was the Home Tweet Home range from My Little Shoebox. It's so cutesy, with sweet little branches and birds. Very fantastic for cutting out :)

Almost 9 Years of Us - Photo by Ali Russell... pretty much enough said in the title. This April Luke and I will celebrate 9 years together and 7 years married. SCARY....  

My School Girl - So sweet, so cute and still looks too small. Does have a big attitude though. I can see so many changes in Charlotte since she has started school. While she had all the basics before starting she has really responded well. LOVES writing and can usually spell any word she wants to correctly. She is really into sounding out and is getting the whole idea of blending sounds.

The Color Room

I've been playing along with The Color Room again lately, unfortunately I've been terribly slack and I haven't uploaded my layouts. To tell the truth I've only just photographed them, there was no point when I haven't had a mouse for the computer...... Kids, scissors, temptation.......

Very Lucky - Just beautiful photos of mum with the kids. Something we will always cherish and I hope they will too. Just playing around with some GORGEOUS Webster's Pages and a few other little bits. I was a little ekkkk, when I saw this combo, but LOVE how it has turned out.

Fast - Dea just goes and goes and goes. He is the most energetic of all four kids. Never seems to stop or tire. Quite amazing really for a little lad. Love my Tape background, so fun and fast. Mix of My Little Shoebox here, worked perfectly with the combo. I do love the colour of the photo though and it gives it a little more punch.

Mwah - When I first saw the colours of this palette I was a little thrown. So I kept it fairly mono with the pink and added small touches of red, orange and brown. I like this photo of Charlotte, love her eyelashes and that where the theme of this came from. She has superlong lashes and loves to give sweet butterfly kisses. Again some beautiful Websters Pages in this one.

My Little Shoebox, wheeeeeeeeeeee

I've been hoarding these papers for AGES now, how bad of me :( they are actually from my win from 2Peas :)

Finally after moving rooms and rediscovering all things I love :) I decided to have a play around

Little Grub Boy - My take on the My Little Shoebox Sketch for January. Loved the sketch but decided to alter it a little and only used one photo instead of the two. Thought that worked well for a journaling spot. Zac the outdoors man, he LOVES it when Pa is home from work and I don't see him for those 4-5 days, except for Breakfast and Tea. Goes away clean and comes back covered from head to toe in dirt, oil, grease. I love that he loves it.

Joy - While I had all the papers out I quickly threw together this layout of Adam. I quiet like the pink through out this. Works great with the colours in the photo. Had a little fun with my stamps too :) how adorable are those birds *sigh* so glad birds are still 'in' and I LOVE my tree too. Super fast embellie thats for sure.

Thanks for stopping by

I'm planning on hitting the desk tomorrow so be on the look out for some fun new creations over the weekend

Kraft It Up - October

Little bit late in getting this up :( stupid downloads

Anyway October's KRAFT IT UP has been up for nearly a week and it's an awesome challenge once again, pop over to check it out and the FANTASTIC DT samples

Mud Princess - Totally my girl :) while it's fun to be all pretty and dressed up it's also FUN to get stuck into the dirt/mud/grease. Using some My Little Shoebox, October Afternoon and American Crafts, I cut the little line and clothes out from one of the MLSB papers, think it's a little fitting considering that week I must have washed every day due to the kids playing in the rain and mud :D

How much do you love the HUGE photos :D

Thanks for popping by
