Project Life! - Kraft it Up - June Challenge

Huge Hello Everyone!

 

As you may have gathered by the title of this post

I have given the Kraft it up

 

 

June Challenge a whirl!

 

At Kraft it up this month the Challenge

 is to create a "Project Life" inspired layout. 

 Use a week out of this month and take a minimum of 3 photos

(more if you want to) and you need to journal about what has happened that week.

As you may well know you also have to use Kraft paper or Kraft pattern paper

as the background.

 

I sort of found myself creating a double layout...lol

 

Be back soon!

 

I really enjoyed doing this challenge, I found it exciting to edit and print my

instagram photos and use them as my scrappen photos,

As I seem to be using my phones camera to quickly snap a moment

I otherwise would miss :}

 

Got to love the instagram :}

 

I have used mostly Echo Park Papers from a 6x6 Pad, along with some

My Mind Eye Phrase stickers and bunch of Eye Candy Magic Fimo creations

and doilies I have floating around in my sash.

 

Hope you have whirl of this challenge too!

Today I am thankful

Huge Hello everyone!

 

Wow Wee what a week!

or should a say a couple of weeks, since my last post.

 

I have finally gotten a moment after the a long working week,

I have just finished my first five day in a row at Bunning's!

OMG! I know I really should toughen up...lol

 

I did how ever get to go out with the Activities lady at Bunning's and

help out at a crafty school gig :}

Very chuffed to have been asked, really enjoyed sharing that with the kids

 and making wooden pencil cases :}

 

I'm happy to say that I have been lucky enough to receive more hours

from Bunning's and am now the Bread winner in the house...lol

     Justin on the other hand is really doing an absolutely AWESOME job at

running the house!

Seriously wondering how I would ever do without him, my angel :}

 

Now to enjoy my first day off in a while I wanted to checkout what the lovely

ladies at Sassy Scrappers are up too

 

 

 

and this months challenge is

to use the quote

 

"Today I am Thankful" 

this really inspired me to start a SMASH* journal

 

 

 

 

 

and really help myself keep focus on the things I am thankful for,

another great reason for scrappen :}

 

I'm blown away to see a message to say that I had won last month sketch challenge!

OMG! so so so grateful and just utterly over the moon!

 

 

 

So a HUGE Shout out to Olga and Sassy Scrappers!!

THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

MWAH!!!XXXX

 

I'm pretty happy to say I have also been still getting my creative thing on

 and diving into some digital scrappen

and creating some Project Life pages through an online class by Jessica Sprague.

 

 

 

I'm pretty stoked with the outcome from this class so I decide to sign up for the

 Photoshop Friday: Summer Baker's Dozen Subscription

 

 

this class goes on for 12 weeks, basically each Friday there is a new lesson

and you learn new techniques and by the end I'll have 12 layouts :}

 

So a nice easy stepping stone course :}

 

But I have to admit it's not as good as the real thing...lol

Got to dive into paint sometime :}

 

Hope you are all doing the same, getting creative and enjoying the moments we

are all thankful for :}

 

Sending you loads of warm wishes and HUGS!

 

Samantha :}
