I'm Back...

Well that layout didn't take long...I love buying coordinating patterned paper and chipboard stickers...great for quick and easy layouts :) This layout is just 2 pieces of PP, a pack of chipbaord stickers/ribbon and alphas...oh and some bling...can't forget the bling :)

I did this layout for Ingeborg's April sketch challenge.

Now..shall I do another layout??

Two more for the weekend

Last night I was able to get 2 more layouts done. I had planned to do another one but wanted it to be special so went on the net to get inspired but didn't get any further cause I went on MSN and chatted with Lesley for ages :) Ah well..there is always this arvo :) and I have new papers I just bought at Country Scrapbooking...beautiful Kaiser ones called 'La-Di-Da' with cute birdies :D
So I am thinking I might have to put last nights layout aside and use my new papers.
Here are the ones I did yesterday...
Ashlee's Baptism...
I told Tay I did a layout about her and as she was looking at it she leaned over to her friend and whispered 'Mum can do better'...HAHA!!! She said it was too plain...so I told her that I like plain these days :D
Probably be back later with another one.

I Finally Have Photos :D

Yesterday I got my Snapfish order in the mail which is enough photos for 9 layouts!!
So today I had the urge to scrap! Felt great too as I thought I didn't want to scrap anymore.

Tayla and Ashlee got baptised 2 weeks ago to make a declaration before their family and friends that they want to follow Jesus. This layout is of Tayla's baptism for her album. It was such a special day for us :)

And our boy Angus...
Murray is going away for the weekend so I am thinking I might keep my scrap gear out and keep scrapping :) What a nice way to spend Easter.

6x4" Scrapblogs

I had a play on Scrapblog last night...hadn't been on for a while, and came up with these little 6x4 cards using our new family photos. I love how this site has all the digital papers and embellishments on it...although now they have changed it so you have to earn credit and pay...but I got around that ;)

If only I had a credit card so i could buy some credit and make some cooler ones.

An Old Family Photo

We have a public holiday today and I had the urge to scrap...but had a problem...NO PHOTOS!!!!
I found this one I had in a frame. It's of our family back in 2006 and we really haven't had a nice family photo since so I am hoping to get the family dressed and head out bush today to get a new one...seeing I have a new hair cut now ;)
So here is my layout. I love this valentines paper range by Daisy Bucket Designs called 'Loves Me Loves me Not'



Edited to add- and here is the photo I took yesterday...yay...we have an updated photo at last :D

First for 2010

To keep me scrapping each month I have decided to do Ingeborg's PageMaps sketch challenge each month as I haven't been overly inspired lately. HERE is the sketch and below is my take on it.



I do have a few more sets of photos to scrap now that I am back from holidays so maybe this month I will get some more done.

I Scrapped!

Last night I scrapped for the first time since the Wave Rock Retreat! My friend Ingeborg from the SoF forum has started a new challenge blog so I had a go at this months sketch challenge.

This layout is about Ashlee and her new guitar :)
