Last SoF Challenge Layout for April

I got #4 sent in with no time to spare..hehehe. I have thoroughly enjoyed doing these 5 challenges this month! This challenge was to do a layout about a lesson God has taught me. I chose to do it on being obedient to God and through it God brings blessing. Check out the rest of the entries here.... Scrap of Faith Blog

My Scrap Stash

I have just been discussing with Karen L what to take to retreats and I said I take everything....this is why....this is my whole stash so all I take is my stack of drawers, a green coles bag and my Bazzill binder.

All that stuff on the floor fits into a green bag :)

Oh yeh, and I scrap on the kitchen table.

I actually paper scrapped!

Last night I was able to paper scrap for the first time since the retreat in March. Errin came over and we were able to get one finished and another one started. I bought this tree trunk rubon from Karen at the retreat as I have been wanting to do a tree layout for a while now.

Murray is away for a couple more days so I might be able to get some more done...hopefully tonight.

Cousins Oh So Cute!

Aren't these kids just the happiest little munchkins!

Willro&co Designs released this new Chugga Chugga kit today so I had a little play with it. I don't have any boyish photos so I went with these photos my sister-in-law Mick sent me.

Be Still

This layout is for No.2 (out of 5) of the Scrap of Faith Challenges for April. The Challenge was to do a layout about the verse Psalm 46:10...Be still and know that I am God. This is Ella at 18 hours old. I am going to visit again on Wednesday so I will have some new photos at 4 weeks old to show you. YAY!

My New Baby

Look what I got this week! Check out the details HERE.

I haven't had time to use it a whole lot yet, but the girls have made signs for their bedroom doors and made cards. I need to get stuck into some scrapbooking now!

Entry into Carolina's Circle Journal

I decided to do this round digitally. (thanks Sal for the idea!)
Carolina's CJ topic is answered prayer and here is my entry.


And here is the journaling if you are interested.
This isn’t a testimony of answered prayer as such, but a testimony of God’s love and how he cares about the little things and honours us when we listen to and obey him. My husband and girls were to be away on a camping trip and I was all fired up to get stuck into my scrapbooking. Monday morning came and I felt the Lord say to me “Do the weeding first, then clean the house ready for the rent inspection and then you are free to
scrapbook” My gardens were so bad that I thought it would take me all week and I only really had Monday and Tuesday because I was working the rest of the week. Anyways.. I was sitting in the garden for half an hour feeling very overwhelmed when I had this thought pop into my head to get help with the garden. So I enlisted help from four of our youth group. They were absolutely amazing. Their attitudes and perseverence blew me away....we weeded for 5 hours straight and got it all done in one day. Then came to Tuesday. I had to clean my house to my landlords standard....you know like clean the shower and all those horrid jobs. It took me til 4pm to do everything so by this stage I was getting all down thinking that I had to work for the rest of the week and my scrapping time had gone. Then, my friend Errin came over at 4pm for a quick cuppa. I asked her if she wanted to scrap with me and she got all excited. Errin is usually really tired after work but wasn't this time. Praise God! I got 6 layouts done in one night!! I NEVER do more than 2 in a night or day! I believe because I obeyed the Lord and sacrificed my time to weed and clean BEFORE I scrapped he gave me my time back and enabled me to do six in one night, instead of six in 3 days! I am totally blown away at how God cares about us and how he blows our socks off with blessing if we just follow him and choose to obey him.

My Classes from the Retreat

I forgot to show you the full versions of my classes I taught at the retreat on the weekend.
This first class was to teach the technique of cutting your pages and photos in half to continue onto the next page. Apparently it looks much better in real life.


And here is the explosion box I taught.
