Birthday Card & Just For You Card

 

This is one of the card that I have made from my scrap 

items left out of my Fancy Pants - Down By The Shore

range from Scrapbookit. This is an awesome range. If you

go to Scrapbookit and have a look you will see the LO I 

did along with the other work from the DT girls.

 

The stamp is Kaisercraft and I had my first go at coloring 

with my new Copics also from Scrapbookit. The flowers 

are hand cut from the range  and the butterfly is punched.

It is a great way to use up some of the left over papers.

 

My Just For You card is also made from the same range of 

papers with added Manor House flowers, washi tape, red paint 

and ribbon. Everything is from Scrapbookit Store. Check it out

you will be pleasantly surprised at how much Jo has in her store.

To much to have up so if you cant see it email Jo and she will let

you know. I hope you like these two cards. 

I'm also very excited about next months Challenge and the LO I 

just finished for it. Like this months challenge, next month will

be great too.   

Cherish Every Moment

 

I made this card for my DT position at Beyond Grey Challenges.

  http://beyondgrey.blogspot.com.au/

The challenge is Oh So Knotty. The challenge has two parts this 

month. The first is it must contain one or more knots. The second

part is the card is to be black and maroon. You may use other colors

such as white, cream etc, but they must be to a minimum. 

 

I chose to place my knot in the hand of the fairy. I thought it made

it look a little like a pearl. The fairy is a lazier cut from Scraptopia.

I inked her so she wasn't white. I then placed  some glitter on her 

as all fairy need fairy dust.

 

The ornate heart is from Kaisercraft and I colored it with a maroon

Copic. Both of these you are able to get from Scrapbookit.  Hand

cutting the bird and the butterfly punch finished it of, and a little

more glitter just to show the fairy had dusted by. :)

Hop on over to Beyond Grey Challenges and join in the fun. We 

would love to see you there.

 

This is my latest LO for my DT position at Scrapbookit.

Everything on this layout you are able to get from the Scrapbookit

Store. If you can't see it just ask Jo.  She has some awesome items

but not all are listed. That's what happens when you stock so much.

This collection of papers is from the 

Teresa Collins Collection - Sports Edition.

This edition is awesome to use. It covers all sports. It has a something

that will cover it all. The colors in it are great too. They go so well with

most sporting colors. Take a closer look at a my LO and you will see

what I mean.

 

There is a 12 x 12 doubled sided sheet that on one side has lots

and lots of sport related words in different colors and different 

sizes. Awesome. They alone can tell the story. 

 

Ops.....I have been too excited about the papers to tell you about 

the pictures that give me my inspiration. This as you can see is 

the Cape Clear Primary School. This is where my sons attend 

school. When they first started school there were over 40 children.

  This year there is 12 and they are all boys. Last year only one girl. 

Everything they do is like a family event. Sports against the other 

schools is no exception and yes they placed 2nd in the Relay.

To have a look at a couple of closer shots of the papers the please

go to Scrapbookit and check things out. We would love to see you

there. Dont forget to leave a comment. We would love to know 

what you  think.

 

I Believe In Fairies - Guest Designer LO

 

I did this Lo for my guest design position at About A Boy

 http://itsabouttheboys.blogspot.com.au/

For this challenged it was a layout that was white with one. 

I know I should have put my boys on this but I didn't have any

pictures of them with the toadstools but they picked the photo they

thought I should do. This layout was done with suggestions from 

 both of them. 

 

We had so much fun when we went to take these photos. It had

been raining. Everything was shinny and wet. We laughed so

much talking about fairies. About how we could imagine they

lived among the trees, sheltering under the beautiful toadstools.

 

My handsome boys may not be in a picture in the LO,

but this layout is all about them. We played together to

get the photo's that day and they picked and helped to 

decide so for me this layout is All boy.

About A boy have awesome challenges so pop on over 

and have a look at  http://itsabouttheboys.blogspot.com.au/

Join in the challenges and have some fun.

 

 

Mothers Day Card

 

 

I made this card for my beautiful mother. My mum is a very

beautiful person and the back bone to my family. As sick as 

she is, she rarely misses a day coming to our home.  If she 

can't come the phone will ring.

My Mum..... She has a beautiful heart. She never speaks ill of

people and can find an excuse for anyone's bad behavior. She 

likes everything simple. Never dresses fancy, no makeup, no

bling just a wedding ring. No mess, no flowers in the house 

(they make her sick) but in the garden is great. The biggest thing

of all is she loves Riley, Harley and me unconditionally. She 

picks us up when we fall, cuddles us when we cry, laughs with us,

and always tells us she loves us even when mad with us. 

SHE'S MY MUM

When I made this card I knew straight away it had to be simple.

I knew she would love that. She loves the crops of sunflowers in

the district if anyone has them in when we go anywhere. 

 

This is just what we wanted her to do......take a seat.

Did she.....as much as we could make her. She says she sits enough

and sleeps enough on her bad days. Mothers Day was a good day.

 

 

First DT Post for SCRAPBOOKIT

 

Wow this LO was so much fun. It has been done for the sketch

of products just like these ones and this layout and many more. 

Way too many for her on line store..... so if you want something

Guest Design Position

 

This is the LO I submitted for my position as Guest Designer for 

About A Boy Scrapbook Challenge.  

They have awesome boy challenges and as you can see my boys 

are that.....Boys all the way lol. The water smelt, not only did the 

mud make them black but so did the water. They loved it though. 

 

 

With these close ups you will be able to see by Harley's  bright

orange shirt what the water was like. They didn't care though. 

They had a ball and I must admit it was fun to watch them. All

of it was fun till they had to be showed and we were no longer 

in the open and could smell the truth behind the fun.

 

Oh and yes not forgetting the gum boots. They were nice and full

and many a time they would go splat down because the had their 

feet bogged in the mud. The socks found the bin. A mum has to 

draw a line some times.

BUT.....Boys Will Be Boys.....LOL
