Scrapping...

...simply for fun! I'm trying to give myself more time to scrap...I'm truly working on putting myself back on the list ;)
I hope you've eaten, because this layout may make you hungry. They are photos of breakfast that my daughter & I shared to celebrate the end of trials, before her HSC...haha before it got completely crazy! It's hard to believe that's now 7 months ago!!! Time is flying all too fast!


This background was one I had started & ditched months ago...got a LOAD of those ;) my challenge at the moment is to starting using those pre-made backgrounds.


Close up of the misted & stamped background...& our yummy breakie :) I had corn fritters with bacon, avocado & roasted tomatoes & my girl had pancakes...yum!

Don't forget your entry for 123 Challenge Blog, Kraft it Up! & Show Us Your Stuff & last but not least, The Color Room...sadly all are looking a little slim this month :( I hope you'll join in & show your support of these challenge blogs, there are certainly some great prizes up for grabs.

Thanks for stopping by...as always, a huge thank you for all your lovely comments! They really do mean so much to me & I appreciate the time you take to leave me one x
Happy scrapping!

Scrap365 Sketch!

Hello!!! I was lucky enough to be at retreat at the beginning of the month, sadly I've only just got back to finishing off the layouts.
I had started this one for the Scrap365 sketch, only just got this done in the nick of time ;)



I simply adore this range, find your wings & fly from My Minds Eye...actually, I love all their ranges ;)

Have you had a chance to join in the challenges over at KIU, 123 Challenge Blog or Show us your Stuff??? Sadly all challenge blogs are looking a bit light this month...we'd certainly love to see your creations.

Thanks for stopping by! As always, a huge thank you for your lovely comments :) I do appreciate the time you take to leave me one!

Show us your Stuff March Challenge!

My last DT share for the month is for the challenge over @ Show us your Stuff! I loved this mood board, mainly because I love green & I LOVED how quickly & easily this layout came together! Don't you just wish that could happen every time ;) This layout simply flowed...I didn't over-think it, which I believe is my usual problem & I'm really pleased with it!

The March Mood Board....


My layout obviously was inspired by the green in these pics, also the stripes, though I went with squiggly stripes in the form of chevrons ;) & the paint brush with the use of paint.


My handmade item is the badge from A Lil' Somethin'...such a perfect match for this layout!


Check out the gorgeous creations for the rest of the team here...I look forward to seeing what you come up with using the inspiration.

March Kraft It Up!

Today I'm sharing my DT layout for KIU & their fabulous March challenge...which is to create a layout based around a 'list', whether it is a Christmas list, grocery list, bucket list, chores or a weekly planning list, that is up to you!

I've started using a 'menu planner' in an effort to get better organised this year, so I went with that...


PepperPlate is a free app for the ipad, which is the one I'm using. I simply took a screen shot of the months meals & printed it off, adding a few photos of our meals during the month. Haha I may be better organised, but my favourite meal would still be the take-out hamburgers on the beach ;)

Check out the rest of the teams fabulous creations here, the team have created a variety of 'lists'. I look forward to seeing your take on this challenge.

123 Challenge Blog!

Good morning! March...seriously, we are in March!!! As I always say...the great thing about a new month is of course the new challenges to sink your creative minds into ;)
This month over at 123 Challenge Blog is certainly a pretty one!


I loved this colour palette, something a little 'softer' from my traditional colours. I used the washi tape as a frame for my photo & used watercolour crayons to draw frames on my background.


Close up of my details...
