Hi all. Last day of the month so posting my last challenge entry.

I was inspired by the sketch over at Creative Scrappers,  Sketch #214:


Used Kaisercraft 'Velvet Ensemble' collection, Prima flowers, DA chipboard swirl.

I just love this pic of Adrian and Sophia. Daddy and his little girl! As Adrian is a musician, primarily a singer, i would just love if both my kids get his genetics. You see, while i'm a great music lover, i'm tone deaf, no talent whatsoever! Sophia already loves to sing and dance, which i know most kids do, she's very interested in it so we will keep encouraging her and see where it goes.

Have a great weekend everybody.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone, hope you all enjoyed your Thursday.
Just a quick post with an entry for 'White With 1'. The criteria was white+light blue+flags.


I've had this paper in my stash since 2003, when i began hoarding supplies for my little addiction. I was diiging through for something blue and i pulled this out... perfect! I couldn't even tell you the manufacturer, i think it came in a multi pack. The banner flags are made from some lace stickers i found at  Kmart, of course Prima and misc flowers, and a Kaiser crochet doily.

I cant believe how much my Hudson has grown since this pic was taken. He's walking and gabbling on with baby talk. They grow way too fast and it makes me clucky all over again, which is very dangerous!

Thanks for stopping by!

Good afternoon everyone! Hope your Monday isn't dragging on too much...

I've had 2 blissful hours to myself today, so i cracked on with some scrapping. I'm having a go at 2 of the Kaisercraft Saturday Sketches.

First is sketch #2:

(Sorry the image is a bit orangy, the light was fading when i took the picture!)
Used an old Kaiser paper line here! Love those robots and the hexagon pattern in the flags, funny how scrapbook 'fashion' comes back around full circle!

The pic of Hudson is at a cool new playcentre that has opened near us. There are beautiful murals on the walls and different themed rooms. They have a pirate ship, a haunted house, a fairy garden, a wild west saloon! Its just gorgeous, but can get crowded, which keeps me away from it more than i'd like to be!

Next is for Sketch #4:


Yerp, another Christmas layout, but this sketch was perfect because of the photo size! I love the annual Santa photos but they're so awkward to scrap!

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Sorry for another long absence from the blogging world! Our computer was on the fritz for a while...

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I've been busy scrapping so there is a few photos in this post for some challenges i have entered. I wont post everything i've done this month today, it would take forever!

So the first layout is my entry for this month's Once Upon A Sketch challenge, which is all about 'birthdays'.


Used Prima 'Flights of Fancy' collection.

This pic is Sophia on her 3rd birthday, i enjoyed using the balloons she got from here Nana as a photo prop. And i love the beautiful tree in full flower in the background! I'm not sure what sort of tree it is....


Next is my entry for 'Scrap the Girls'. The challenge was to use photos from being 'outside'.


Used some old Bo Bunny papers, Prima flowers, Dusty Attic chip butterfly, Jenni Bowlin ticket, thickers.


My final layout is for Bird is the Word, using the word 'Colour/s'.


Used Pink Paislee 'Pop Fashion' papers, Prima & misc flowers, Jenni Bowlin ticket, AC thickers.

So, thanks for sticking out this post, i'll be back in the next few days with some more layouts!

Thanks for stopping by.

Used up some scraps here... Prima flowers, Green Tara leaves, Kaisercraft birdcage and cloud stamps (cant see very well!), thickers, vintage swap card.

It's all about the Easter Egg Hunt on Easter morning for my Sophia! To see the delight on her face makes it just as fun for us...
