More holiday layouts....

I was able to do 4 more layouts last night. There's not much to do in an imaculate house you are house sitting and the kids are in bed....so scrapping it was!

This first layout is of when Bree was born (nearly 7 years ago). It is for Ashlee's album. i'm definitely going to buy more MM note worthy papers.

These photos are of my brother-in-law competing in the Busselton half iron man in May. We were holidaying there for our 11th anniversary and they happened to be there at the same time.

This is Ashlee at 7 months old. It's been good to finally start to wade through all my old photos. I don't know what I'll do when i do catch up and have no photos to scrap though!

And this is a photo I took when we were living at the farm in 2005. It was a foggy morning. I just love this photo.

Holiday Layouts so far...

I was able to fit all my scrap stash in the car so I can scrap to my heart content on my holiday. Last night I had Karen and Lissa over and I was able to get one layout finished. The photos were taken 10 years ago back in 97 when Tayla was only 6 months old.

This one is also 10 years ago when Tayla was born....look how young I am (19). I have already scrapped these photos for our family album but I wanted one for Tayla's album too.

And here is Tayla this year with her Daddy. Love these photos.

And here is my layout about this Christmas. I was unable to edit my photos because the computer I am on doesn't have any editing programs so the photos are a bit dark...oh well.

Hopefully I can get some more layouts done in the next week. Hope you are all having a great holiday...

Round 4 Scrap of Faith Circle Journal

This is my entry into Sarah's circle journal. The topic was "words of wisdom from the Proverbs" I chose to focus on discipline.

Scrappin' at Work

Today I had to take the girls to work with me so they scrapbooked while I worked. I had a couple of quiet hours in the arvo so I got a page done too. Here are our creations.

This first one is a layout I did of Ashlee.

This is Tayla's wafer stick tin she covered for her money box.

Here is Ashlee's paper mache CD box she covered to give to her teacher. Ash also made a canvas of herself for Murray and my Christmas pressie but it is already wrapped and I'm not allowed to read it.

And Bree's little paper mache book she covered for her teacher.

So proud of my kidlets...they did a great job.

Fabulously You

I finally finished this layout last night that I started at a crop night 2 weeks ago. I had the page completed right up until the title and journaling but had no idea what the layout was going to be about. The flowers are cut out individually from patterned paper and then I raised some up with magic mount.

Scraplifter

Lately I have been very uninspired by my own imagination so yesterday I decided to try and break out of my uncreativeness (is that even a word) and do some scraplifting. I made a 5 page word document of 100 of the layouts I have in my favourites folder (lots of little pictures of layouts). Last night I managed to do 2 scraplifts...which I am very pleased with.

This first one was inspired by Nikala O'brien by THIS layout.

And this one has been in my favourite folder for ages...it was inspired by Caroline McLachlan's Family layout. (that's actually a white background cardstock...but looks blue in the photo)

Another Girly One

Just had a morning with some customers scrapping at the shop....managed to do one layout although I struggled with it the whole time. I used the leftover paper (big flower cutout) from Bree's First birthday layout from the last post.

Weekend Layouts

I was able to do a few layouts this weekend. This first one is my treasures layout for Murray's album of his family collection.

These photos are from a friends 30th birthday last year. It was a 70's night. The blonde bombshell is my sister Suzie...she looked like Kath off Kath and Kim...hehehe. And in case youdon't know the red head is ME!! The heart idea is borrowed from Karen Smith's "Love" layout.

This next layout is about Ashlee's love for drawing. I am not happy with this layout, but its done now.

Last one...this is one of Bree's first birthday. I am still to catch up on old photos...up to 10 years old....hopefully one day I will be all up to date.

bye bye

My Favourite Products

These are some of my favourite products at the moment.....scollop paper, Autumn Leaves Journaling stamps, MM glitter alpha stickers. I was able to complete one layout again last night at the scrapshop...."Why I Love Being a Girl"

A Quick One

I went to the scrapshop last night with good intentions of getting lots done, but got a bit side tracked with doing a paper order with Kerri, so only managed to do this one very simple layout.
