What a week!!!

Well I'm back at work and all I can say is thank God it the weekend. What a ruddy mess!!! Two weeks worth of patient notes to type up, accounts to check and the EOFY stuff to start organising. But all I wanna do is scrap......so not fair. I wanna win the xlotto this week. What are the chances??? Buckleys I reckon.

Enough of the whingy whiney (I can hear Em saying want some cheese with that whine....gee I miss that! Love ya Hon) here's the latest LO.....Bazz and Me. Dont do LO's of us very often must do more of these. The design is a lift but I cant remember from where!? The scalloped doodled border and inked border around the photos appealed to me. TFSB!

Another Quick Share

Just finished this LO......it did give me some grief but I'm happy with how it turned out. It's the first LO in ages I have just done for me...............no criteria that had to be followed..............just have fun with the process.

Scrappin Update

Firstly thank you Ann for giving me this lovely blog award.

Here's her blog http://raggedyannsplayground.blogspot.com/

Now five other people to give the award to...........................

Well I didn't scrap as much as I would have liked with my week off but here's what I done.

Pages B and C in Mitchell's A-Z album.............................

We had to dress a chippie and Maria wanted to see some texture. Well I placed mesh over mine and painted it.....it has a nice mesh look to it IRL you just cant see it in the photo!

For the letter C Maria want us to do some paper casting. What is paper casting? Choose a stamp and then layer loo paper onto it giving the paper a spritz of water in between layers. Let it dry, trim and them decorate!

Kym's colour challenge for June was brown,green and lots of white. She also wanted 2 JB's rubons and bling. Here's what I came up with

I have also finished my first ever ATC for Scrap around the clock.

Bye for now.

Hi All!!

Back in March at Hybrid we had a auction to raise money for the bushfire victims. One of many items I was very keen to win was a LO by Kerryn Fry. I just love this girls work. So much detail, cutwork, layers, doodling etc in every LO it astounds me. We met up for a coffee last weekend and she presented me with my finished masterpiece.......................

Fantastic isn't it?? And Kerryn is such a gorgeous person.....I hope to catch up with her again.

The only thing I have done since my last post is this LO, which was an online class run by Marie at Hybrid. I must apologise to Em for cutting off one of the bridesmaids but it just wasn't working in landscape.

I got kicked off The Island last week.................a little sad but glad in alot of other ways. I can get some other scrapping done now!! hehe Good luck to the remaining girls Marie, Wendy and Kerryn.

That's all from me for now, but hopefully I'll be a bit more productive over the next week as I am home with whooping cough. Feel fine but just cough alot!!!! Tooorah

No Swine Flu Here...............Honest!!!

Well I have been rightly miserable for the last week with a darn head cold that I just can shake. I haven't done alot scrapping wise with the folks popping in for a week stay and now my cold. But I thought I'd share my Challenge 11 LO and my inchies for swap at Hybrid

The photo of the inchies is not to good being night photo but you get the general idea. Cant wait for the swap to be posted out.

Off to catch up on some CJ's.......only have three here waiting(blush) dont wanna let the team down.

Later

Things to share

Why hello people! Been so busy around the house that I feel I haven't scrapped much. But I got a few things to share with ya!

Maria is running a A-Z book of..........whatever you like. So I'm doing one on Mitch cos I really dont like doing boy LO's. So I thought this might give me the oppotunity to try a few different things on a small scale. The cover of the album is covered in denim from an old pair of his jeans and the elastic that holds it together is from the adjustable waist band. His name is double sided stickers which I have covered in red flocking. Now that stuff really makes a jolly mess but goodness it works soooo well.

A is for attitude. This kid has plenty of it!! I've rummaged thru my stash and found some old BG Colour me silly range. Sorry did I say some.................I mean the entire range including stickers and tags (blush) Just put it away a never used it, like a lot of things (more blushing)

I have just completed Challenge 10 for Scrapbook Survivor. We had to use the flourish we made for the mini-challenge, and make a LO about a dream. (This could be an actual dream you've had, a dream-come-true, a daydream, etc.) and use the word DREAM somehow in your title (including the variants - dreaming, dreamed etc)

The only other thing I'm doing is a swap of inchies. I need to make 100 (yes 100) 1" x 1" monochromatic squares in orange. Everyone has a different colour and you end up with 10 of each colour. This is what the finished product may look like

Well I think it looks fabbo and I have a spot picked out on my scrap space wall to hang it when done. 10 down 90 to go!!!

So I'd better go!!!

Challenge 9

Cant believe I'm still on the Island..................... thought I would have been voted off by now! This round we had to scrap about our favourite toy, piece of clothing, holiday spot or person. To be honest I really cant remember that far back!! LOL But Mum assures me Humphrey was my favourite toy. This photo is also special as it is only one of a handful I have of myself.

I also used a WOIN kit to do the LO. I really cant praise these kits enough......they are great value for money ranging from $12 - $20 odd dollars and there is enough product for several LO's. Go check out the May Kits.
