Scrap Africa challenge 27!

 
Hello ladies i hope you are all well. I finally found some more time to share this fortnights challenge over at Scrap Africa. I am finding it hard to get my mojo up and running these days since i am heavily into study mode. It is a juggling act these days but a juggling act i am so happy to be doing :)
Anyway this fortnight i managed to pull together a reasonably simple page for me but i still love the outcome. Lots of bold colours and an absolutely gorgeous photo of my eldest. I am so proud of the young lady she is becoming. I kept the title simple, something i believe in so much. If you are not happy then is it worth it??? I glimmermisted my stars and stitched randomly over them to adhere them to my page. I decided not to stitch my buttons because i thought there would be too much stitching then.



 
 
So that is it from me, a nice quite rest of Sunday for my little family. Take care xx

March Life in Details reveal!!!!

It is with great enthusiasm that i bring this months challenge for Life in Details. Not only have we got an awesome Smash book challenge but we are also having a Smash book DT call. If you Smash book and would love to be considered please indicate by including "DT" after your name in the link up when you enter your challenge submission for this month.   
 
Which brings us to this months challenge....this months challenge is to Smash about ,depending on which hemisphere you live in,  the first day of spring or the first day of autumn. I live in the Southern Hemisphere so March is the first day of Autumn.
To create my page i used a new range of Smash books i prchased the other week. The patterns are just the same as the K&Co but they are alot smaller.  I had no real plan what i was going to scrap so i gathered a heap of stuff that screamed Autumn to me. Funny we always go bike riding in Autumn.
 
 

So that is it from me, sorry for my absence these days but lfe is super busy right now. Take care xx until next time.

"Addicted 2 U" - OUAS page

Hello all!! Lovely weather we are having in Northern Queensland at the moment, lord knows we need it :) Just hoping it carries itself outwest a little more! Today i am popping in to share with you my page i created for the OUAS challenge this month. My page changed a million times but i just went with the flow and came out with something i am reasonably happy with. I originally planned to use the lyrics to the Black Eyed Peas song "Just Can't Get Enough" but then decided to add more. My partner and i have been on a very long and rough roller coaster of a ride over the years but here we are 13 odd years later going stronger than ever, enjoying silly times together. I even pulled out my sewing machine for this one too, lol! Circles again too, love circles so much.

So this months challenge is "Totally addicted to...." and of course you must use this sketch....


 
Here is my page.
 

Just a little close up!
TFL and have a great day :) I am off to make some RAKS to send off :)

Challenge #3 for Challenge Yourself

Hey everyone, i thought i would take a break from the housework and pop in and share the page i created for Challenge Yourself. It was a bit hard to start it off but it came together in the end. I tried so hard to get the palette right but not sure if i did, lol. Yes, i am still scrapping photos of our Christmas trip away. There were so many car selfies taken, what else do you do when you have nothing to look at for kilometres and kilometres lol!


 
 
So here is the inspiration, an awesome colour combo and the extra challenge of creating a layout about someone you love.
 
 
 
 
So that is it from me for now, enjoy the rest of your day :)

Scrapbook Creations February 2014 Inspiration Board creation.

Ok so i am back again with another post. I have been scrapping a storm lately the creative soul of mine wants to sit and create all day and not sleep. I have so many pages i want to share with you for various challenges but i only want to share each one with you in its own post. I think each page deserves its own piece of glory don't you?? So i thought i would share with you my page i created using the Scrapbook Creations Inspiration Board. Have you seen their blog and their new styled magazine i really am loving it :)

So my page i created, i thought i would take a fancy shot first, lol.



Of course a better view. I love this photo so so so very much. It is of my Nana and my Grandad in their hey day. My Grandfather passed when i was 5 and so i do not remember him :( and my Nana has been battling cancer for awhile now and no longer has hair :( but i love her to pieces!  My page took several hours and forever to dry but i had fun creating it.


Just sharing the inspiration Board, isn't it beautiful. The colours are really not normally ones i use but i loved the challenge :)
February's Inspiration Board Challenge
