DT sketch

Every month the DT (at SOU) have to scrap a LO using a sketch. So, here is my take on this month's sketch.... it's up on the SOU blog as well as the other DT member's LO's - check them out here. I have used more pics from the photo shoot with Linley.

This was the fantastic sketch we used and it was designed by forum member LG Belarmino:

Well another scorcher here - what a heat wave! I am looking forward to the Cybercrop over at Savvy - it starts tonight. I'm sure there will be lots of inspiration and I could do with a little bit at the moment!!

Hope everyone has had a fantastic week and has a great weekend. Many thanks to those who leave lovely comments - you make my day :-)

A fun competition...

The lovely Tiff has a competition on her blog at the moment... the prize is a fabulous Rusty Pickle pack!! To enter, you have to make a LO, card or OTP project with Rusty Pickle products (or use some selected range names). How fun! I had some old Grinch-mas papers and matching stamp set, so thought it was time to do some more Christmas cards! I really liked this blue and red combo - just a bit different from the "traditional" Christmas colours.
I used all RP products except for the flowers and star rhinestones. Then, while I was "on a roll".... I made these:

They are all made with the same double-sided piece of paper ... with a few extra bits and pieces from my stash. (There is some RP stickers there too if you look hard enough ..lol!)

Well, I guess I should work out just how many more cards I need to make! (Before I get too carried away and make too many ...hahaha!!)

Scrap the Girls!

I missed the Scrap the Girls challenge last month (can't remember what happened now), so really wanted to get this month's done. It was a colour combination challenge this time: blue, red, white and orange. Very fresh and summery! This is what I came up with:
In case you can't read it, the journalling says "Friendship is.... wearing matching T-shirts!" LOL! These girls are just soooo cute together!

Hope everyone is having a great week and managing to stay cool, am so glad for air-conditioning here!

PS. I've just realised how well this LO matches my blog! hehehe!!

Some Fun...

Check this out at Scraps of Us ... it looks like it will be heaps of fun!
Basically, those that play will design a sketch at the start of each week in December and it gets given to someone else to create a LO with! It is a non-elimination competition and there is a big prize pool!!

No scrapping to share today - we had a very busy weekend and didn't manage to squeeze scrapping in at all! Hope to catch up this week :-)

Little Miss B

This is the LO I started yesterday. It's a bit different for me, don't you think? I used the Sketch of the Week over at Scraps of Us - I just loved it - not very often I instantly love a sketch!
The pic of "Little Miss B" is another of Linley's and is such a typical cheeky giggly look of Bethany's. I love it :-). I thought these Heidi Grace papers just went so well with the colours of her hat too.

Well, it's Friday again so hope everyone has a lovely weekend. Many thanks to all those who leave comments here - much appreciated :-). Oh by the way, you might have to look out for ANOTHER LO of mine being published!! Will update when I know which issue etc :-)

Scrappy Day

I've had a scrap day today - was SOOO nice just to sit down and chat and scrap :-). Here is one LO I completed, and I have one still in the process!

This is for a fab site I have just discovered called Out Of The Hat Scrap Challenge. The three criteria this month were: A tree, 3 pics of different sizes and die-cut paper. Really disappointed in how the pic of this LO turned out - it looks better in real life, trust me!! LOL! The colours here are just wrong but can't seem to make it any better?!?!

Loving these photos of Linley's - the one of Dallas with the little frown on his face would have to be one of my all time favourites!

Hard to believe, but he's 12 weeks old now. Where has the time gone! I had him weighed on Wednesday and he is 6.83kg - a real little chubba :-) and oh so cute :-). Well, of course his mummy would think so ...LOL.

Hope everyone is having a lovely week...

Capture...

Finally feel like scrapping again and have done a few pages. Here's one I can share with you:
This was for Emma's 54321 challange over at Savvy. The criteria was:

5 circles (not including brads/eyelets)

4 pp's (not including circles)

3 brads/eyelets

2 photos

1 handmade item (flower)

I quite like these kinds of challenges - and now Emma will have one every month - yay!!

Have also been working on DT things - stay tuned and I'll reveal at a later date :-). Hope everyone is having a great week. I'm off to see what else I can create. Oh, after I hang out some washing ... :-)
