2nd monthly DT LO

I have had this one brewing since receiving my lil Owls!! 

Just had to get into the bulk of assignments to gain the best 'busy' desk photo op LOL

I apologise for the poor design of this message, something I have to work on LOL

Looking to add these to your next pages?

DT commitments!! 1 LO done =)

Scrap Elegance commitments part 1!

These lil "Simple" buttons in yellow and grey spot-

they just set this layout off; giving it balance and drawing the key colours together =)

Love my man, he is getting heaps of attention in my scrappin' of late x

Will update with sale dates for Scrap Elegance with next LO (in a few days!!!)

It hasn't been as long this time...

I have had a lil turn at scrapping over the last two weeks and already have another page planned (just need the photo op to show up)...

Keeping with the theme of catch up I have completed the kidlet's first official Kinder photos!!! Yes thank you very much, thank you!!

They are all similar with simple, clean lines. Now to start the 'getting ready for the first day' pics, it is never ending.....which is a good thing =)

Just a lil thank you to Charmane and her team at 123 Challenge, for acknowledging my entry  in the March challenge with words of encouragement and my first challenge prize...a voucher from Charms Creations!! 

So be prepared to see many LOs with the addition of these lil beauties!

On with the assignment writing only 3 weeks left of this semester, how time flies =)

TTFN

Oh My!!!

Finally a scrap turn, I have been HANGING to do a LO for sooo long (that is how it feels LOL)!! This sketch may just be appropriate.....

Daring You To Scrap

have posted this challenge and their DT takes are just gorgeous...

I have stuck right to the sketch design as I need it to provide new mojo, didn't want to feel like I was floundering for too long trying to get started!

Here is my take...

Yes there are some Charm's Creations there!!

I have also used Echo Pack Boy's Life card and element stickers, LilyBee card, Sassafras card...

twine and paperclips =)

Here's to more pages to come

Balance...

Who would have thought I would get a page done so quickly, especially with my Uni workload? Maybe I am in search of some BALANCE....

Nah just too many great challenges posted yesterday.....and most I could roll into one!!

1,2,3 Challenge's April elements are.....

COLOUR: MINT

WORD: BELIEVE

TECHNIQUE: BEADS

I have been wanting to use these October Afternoon letters for ages, this covered mint along with the Bella! paper, safety pin, Family tile and journalling blocks.

I have strung some wooden beads on to my twine for the tag, keeping it really natural.

And the word 'Believe' is one that you can always incorporate into a family pic =)

I have used a sketch that has been post by Purple Pumpkin that I was going to wait to until after I received all my wonderful goodies from my huge and generous win, but I couldn't wait. With a little flip around I was able to place the printed Crate Paper photo backing beautifully, this is such a fun piece of paper! 

But wouldn't you know it I was stuck for a title.....again!

AND THEN....Polly! posted her April Challenge..... that also uses a mint colour, tree embellishment and the phrase that is just perfect for this pic!

How lucky am I!! 

Ok back to the books...=/ don't want to as I want to get stuck into Daring You to Scrap's

April's challenge....a Page Map sketch, which I fell in love with the other day!

Scrap often!!

The month of March.....gone!!!!

Well hasn't time flown?

Between home-life and uni-life, I have been left with nearly NO scrap-life =(

This hasn't been a huge surprise but the disappointment is still there....

BUT....I have managed to fulfil my DT duties for Scrap Elegance!

I was supplied with a wonderful, bright blue doily pair and three stunning animal print buttons....what to do?? The doilies reminded me of my Nan and the buttons were reflections of nursery rhymes but the two together.....never =/

Gronnie does Nursery Rhymes!!!

I have also used Kaisercraft card and paper, Charm's Creation Fabulous Flower, lace, ric rac, a paper doily and blue pearls.

And then there is the URGE to scrap at MIDNIGHT when the Uni readings are not FINISHED!!

I think I was keen to give this one a go really.....March's 123 Challenge

COLOUR:

Metallic Blue

WORD:

123

TECHNIQUE/EMBELLISHMENT:

use something ORGANIC

Metallic blue....who would have though I had so much stuff! Cardstock, paperclip, paint, staples....

1, 2, 3... in the title....

Organic....the natural string, clay button and the blue mesh.....

Heaps of fun and so fast!!

Hope it is not too long before the next page and post xx

Happy Easter just in case <3

March Challenge - Daring You to Scrap

Well.... life is organised of late =)

Routine seems to be the key, just hope to not get tired as we start the new semester at Uni.

Aiming to still find time to scrap.....here is the first challenge

Daring You to Scrap is up early, get into it!!

THE MARCH CHALLENGE

Create a page using 'oldschool' photos like photostrips (from a photobooth) or polaroids. Of course not everybody has access to the equipment like photobooths or polaroid cameras so we have provided a couple of links on how to make them yourselves.

Head over to Kayla's challenge and there are links for websites that assist in creating photobooth pics!!

Here is my take of the challenge....

Many of the 'bitties' are from Basic Grey's Bittersweet, element stickers range.

This is on cardstock with acrylic paint and pieces of velcro!!

Hope to be back soon
