How I love our walks...

We haven't done walked Izzie for quite some time and we brought her out this evening.  I forgot how fun it was and how many mozzies there are here - yikes.  My skin is itching as I type.  Well - the plus side is that the kids and Iz enjoyed their walk together and now she is all splayed out in my bedroom totally enjoying the aircon and panting in the after math of the walk.  

SK Forum - CA Jessy's challenge

Made this layout for Jessy's challenge.  I had this very old photo of Sean's cheek being bitten by a mozzie (mosquito) from 2004.  Jessy's challenge was to use this quote:

1)  Always kiss your children good night even when they are asleep by H Jackson Brown Junior.

My journalling was simple - I went to kiss you goodnite but found a mozzie doing it instead. What a laugh!

I have to say that I am not happy with the layout yet.  I would want to add more embellishments as it is too plain.  Will do so later when I am feeling more inspired.

Materials used:

Coredinations cs,  Basic Grey pp,  Cuttlebug with embossing folder,  eyelets,  suede lace,  Jenny Bowlin tag,  clay beads from Australia,  thickers foam alphas,  Making Memories stickers alphas, pearls from local shops and pop up dots.

SK MArch Lift It

This March - Wendy chose LG's layout to be scraplifted.  I love LG's work - she has a great sense of style and this is what I came up with.

Materials used:

Bazzill white cs,  Jo Sonya Acrylic paint and bottle caps, Scenie Route pp,  Heidi Swapp and Prima flowers,  Kaiser pearls,    America Crafts ribbon,  Thickers foam alphas,  Jenny Bowlin journalling tag and pop up dots.

SK March Challenge - Sketch 2

This is the sketch for SK's March Challenge.  Hope you will join us - RAKs to be won for the winning entry which wil be chosen at the end of each month.   

My interpretation is a slighly UTEE'd one.  I have decided to scrap this great photo by Jessy. My kids are constantly bickering and at loggerheads.  Both should learn how to be nice to each other especially when they have friends over.  They may not want to share their friends at playdates and I keep constantly have to remind them to be nice to each other.

Materials used:

Bella Cardstock,  Platinum UTEE,  Clear embossing ink,  Stamps from Stampington and Stamp-it,  Heidi Swapp flower,  Tulle,  Jenny Bowlin journalling tag,  Prima pp,  Thickers alphas,  Brown coredinations cs,  Autumn Leaves buttons,  Ribbon from Making Memories and pop up dots.

Busy this weekend

I have been quite busy this weekend.  I have gone overload with my love of the altered owls ands I made around 80 of them!  Hee hee - that brought my scrapbooking target much lower now to 52 and with the 2 layouts that I have just finished - voila!  I am at 50 layouts.  Finally - I have reached the halfway point and the end seems not in sight yet.  Sigh... Nvm - I will persist and will work harder.  

I am off soon to help my friend in a charity bazaar.  No rest for the wicked!  Have a great sunday everyone!

Layout - Buzz Mania

Sean used to be obsessed with Buzz Lightyear.  He would watch Toy Story  over and over again. I remember when we were at Disneyland,  I used to have to queue for at least an hour and 45 mins for him to play with the Astro Blasters - which is a Buzz Lightyear game. I remember when he used to wear this very Buzz Lightyear costume to bed and we had to get a couple of these costumes for him. He loved going everywhere in his Buzz costume including Disneyland!

This is another challenge by Yvette at the SK forum - to scrap about their favourite character.  I scrapped this simply and loved the effect of it all.  Do join us for our monthly DT challenges at the end of each month in the SK forum.
