September 15th Stuck?! Sketch

The second sketch for the month is up at Stuck?! Sketches! It's a fun one:

I have created a LO of our 'Little Mister' .... which he tends to get called a lot.
LOL
Oh, but he's a cute Little Mister!!

There's a LilRedRocket button in there ... see it?? And I thought the sketch just begged for misting ... hehe .... but then again, I love my misting .... and splotches .... it's about as messy as I get.

Head over to the Stuck blog and see the other CT takes on this sketch .... fab pages!!

In other news, I have been scrapping up a storm ... just nothing I can share just yet :-). Hope you are having a great week :-)

Going on a Road Trip ...

well, a Prima Road Trip :-). Suzanne from Handmade by Suzanne sent me the Prima Road Trip Collection to play with this month. What fun!!! Love the colours - perfect for travel themed pages and pages of little boys ... as you can see LOL.

He loves his wheels:
I also recieved Sassafras chocolate glitter alphas in my DT pack .... which are as yummy as they sound!! :-). Also available from the store is the twine, the cardstock and glimmermist (can you even see it in the photo??)

Look at this cute button I found in my stash:

I just love smiley faces :-) :-) :-)

Fun in a box:

Who needs toys when playing in a cardboard box is just as fun?? LOL. You might notice I used the cut out piece of pp from the LO above for the background on this page. I have used the Sass Lass alphas again and the twine and also some stitched grosgrain ribbon also available in the store.
Holiday time:
Every year at Christmas time, we head to the Bunya Mountains and spend time with our families. We love it .... spending time with family like this is so special ... and very important for us. The Prima Road Trip Collection was perfect for this photo as was this:
...the Scrapware vintage luggage chippy. Cute hey!!
Lastly, I made a card, using the September sketch by Liz Weber.
The sketch is open to both LO's and cards this month ... with a $20 voucher up for grabs why don't you play along!!!!
HBS is also sponsoring Kraft it Up, Scrap the Girls and Let's Get Shabby this month - even more chances to win so why not challenge yourself :-).
Don't forget the SALE ITEMS at Handmade By Suzanne .... and there are lots of delicious NEW ARRIVALS as well ;-)

Tidbitz In Time

I had lots of plans with this Tidbitz In Time kit, but sadly, I became very unwell and didn't get to do all I had planned. Anyway, these are the last creations I managed before everything went pear shaped!

Twinkle twinkle little star:

I have used the 2nd bonus sketch at Stuck?! Sketches for this LO. I added some alphas, the kraft cardstock, another doily (oh how I love doilies LOL) and glimmermist, all else is from the kit. There were even starfish on some of the pp to cut out to suit my title :-)
And see that amazing vintage button!!! How fun does it look!!

I just loved these "Special Event" tickets and immediately thought to put them on an invitation! I splattered some pink Shimmerz for some sparkle :-)

So, that brings us to the end of my kit reveal. I'd just like to say a huge THANK YOU to Wendy for having me on the DT this month - I've had an amazing time :-) :-)

Have a great weekend everyone! Sorry I haven't visited and commented very often lately... hopefully things will be back to 'normal' soon and I'll get a chance to pop by all my favourite blogs :-)

It's a new month!!!

And up go all the new challenges :-)

Here is the 1st September sketch at Stuck?! Sketches:


I was creating with the awesome kit from Tidbitz In Time! Just loved this music paper ...

{I used another photo by LaBelle Photographics}

I even made my own flower using my scalloped circle punch, adding some pearls and a button :-)
I added the doilies again, but everything else is from the kit. Such a fantastic range of items, I really didn't need to add much! There was even some 'bling' - the sequins ... see them scattered randomly??
So, hope you can play along with the sketches at Stuck?! Sketches this month .... check out the September sponsors to see what you could win!!! And see what fab pages the other DT members created HERE. Don't forget that the birthday bonus sketches and blog hop don't finish until September 10th, so still a few more days to get your entries in for those :-)
Happy creating!!
I'll be back soon with the last of my pages from the Tidbitz In Time kit :-)
