Happy New Year!

Woohoo...the drought has been broken!

I have finally scrapped & boy does it feel good!!!

I set this challenge over @ Forever Always...I am giving away a RAK to the winner. Hope you'll join in!

Wishing you a happy, safe & inspirational 2010!

December dash!!!

I know I said this the previous month, but I'm sure it's speeding up!!! Where is the time going?
Sadly on the scrapping front...nothing is doing. :( Hopefully that changes soon with the end of the school year.
This is the only layout to share this month. It was for the December Forever Always newsletter...

Hoping someone is scrapping out there...

Lou inspired...

Whilst @ retreat, the lovely Lou asked us to scrap a layout of her. She gave me photo transparencies to work with, so with her in mind...I created this!


She also gave the DT a 'challenge'! LOL, for such a 'minimalist', she certainly gave us a lot of product to use. ;) This is what I came up with...I didn't have a photo @ the time, but have since added a photo taken by Lou @ retreat.

Happy scrapping!

Retreat scrappping!

Here are some of the layouts that I completed @ retreat...

This last one was for last months challenge over @ Scrap the Boys...simply didn't get it in on time, but did have fun creating it!

November Forever Always Newsletter!

The November Forever Always Newsletter is up...you'll find it here. Check out who is our new GDT for the month, as well as lots of 'inspiration' with Renae's 'What Inpires Us' article.

These are my layouts for the newsletter...

'Star Wars' photo credit goes to my SIL Cindy & Kye...I cannot thank these ladies enough! My camera died whilst taking the 1st photo of the day!!!

Inspiration wise...I'm a huge fan of Scenic Route papers & the stars, with their red & black was perfect for this theme!

The title for this next one was 'lifted' straight from the local newspaper after that incredible dust storm.

Again, being a fan of Scenic Route...simply loved this paper, even keeping the scraps from a previous layout to use!

What happened to October???

Can't believe another month has rolled by!

I had a brilliant ending to October with the Forever Always Retreat
...lots of laughs, fabulous food, & fannnntastic company...talk about perfect 'time out'.

I had fun with a few girls who joined me in my retreat class...love how their layouts turned out, thanks ladies. We pulled out our scalpel & had a 'play' with the gorgeous Bella Sarah-Jane range.


Will update later my layouts from retreat...did manage to complete a few pages amongst all that fun!!!
