Being Slack?

Well yes and no!


Have been really busy this month with doing up our shed ,to make it a games room and scrap space. YAY! And looking for a new car. Got one! Being sick and working !


This has left little time for scrapping. Boooo. Still got lots to do in the shed but it's getting there.





Two LO's to share


First one is for Challenge 8 for the Survivor comp. We had to scrap our scrap space! I seem to be rather tidy in comparsion to the other girls. But I do feel that might change when I have my own area and can just shut the door on it!! hehe.








The second LO is for Ann's April Challenge.



I have done another 8.5 x 11 lovin' this size at the moment.



I have also used product from the WOIN Sultry Kit. These kits are great for those of us that have trouble co ordinating different pp's - everything goes together so well. Check them out May Kits will be revealed soon..............


Lastly,

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

to

Emma and Phil

on the safe and rather quick arrival of

Jett!

Another bouncing baby boy to add to their beautiful family.

Good luck sweet..................3 under 3!!! At least you are surrounded by family and good friends.

Mwah!!

8.5 x 11

I loved doing this size..........gonna do a few more I think.

This one is for Toni's April Challenge over at Hybrid 4 colours, 4 word title and 4 types of embellishments.




The story behind the blackeye? Giving my son a gentle wake up kiss on the ribs!! He thought I was going to tickle him so he swung his elbow back and POW......just about knocked me out! April fools day to me!!
Off to figure out what to do next

Challenge 7

Oh my....how hard was the challenge this week at Hybrid, I didn't like it at all!!

Theme is -- some aspect of being on the Island

The criteria

1. you must have at least 3 sentences of journalling

2. Your LO must include metal, in any shape or form

3. You must use blue OR green OR beige/sandy colour as your predominant colour

Oh yeah and it had to be a double!!!!!

I've hit a wall at the moment and have hardly scrapped. So I thought I'd try a change in size of LO's. This one is just 2 15 x 30, but I'll be doing 8.5 x 11 to shake things up a bit and hopefully get the juices flowing again.




I've stitched the page protector in half and have also added some embellishments to the outside of the sleeve for something a little different. Photo's from Photobucket - I wish they were mine!!!

Off to finish my first 8.5 x 11!!! Bye

Survivor Challenge 6

Goodness I didn't think that I'd get this done in time. I have been feeling rather washed out and totally uninspired. But here it is the next LO using at least three pp's and a leaf/shell motif. I used BG, IOD and Kaiser pp's flowers from Target, Heidi Swapp ghost leaves, stamped Kaiser leafs, wooden flourish and pearls, CC and Prima Flocked stickers. TFL!

Another LO!



Here's my take on Ann's (from Hybrid) Challenge. Doesn't meet the criteria, but I'm not fussed! I have had this photo for years and have not known who the gorgeous girl in it is! I just love the casual way she sits on the chair and she has an air of mischief about her. After Mum had her stroke she forgot lots of things and who this girl is was one of them. After alot of searching Mum managed to figure out that it was her Aunty Ella!
This is the reason why we all scrap I suppose...................to remember. TFL!

Lucky 7?

Just a quickie today! Here is my LO for challenge 8 at Butterfly Crafts. I found the criteria quite difficult as I dont really have a lucky charm or wanted to scrap about bad/good luck so I went with my so called lucky number! Two things I haved wanted to do on a LO for sometime - a photoless LO and using pp to create a border - able to do both on this one. This was my LO as the GD.
