Where am I?

Huge Hello Everyone!

i think i am missing my time, missing blog hopping, missing get creative!
this week has been so jammed packed with
crazy important responsablities with a dash of a cold thru the family
i just haven't had the right time management skills and
i feel like i have just been flying by the seat of my pants like all week!
or more like a bit over a week!

I really have had little or no time to create what i have wanted to for Eye candy Magic
and seem just to have a pile of papers with random doodles and colours on them....lol
but i have created some more cute as little fimo pins and i have been thinking through what colours
of tattered flowers i want to make,
a late night last night helped my finsih my last Masters layout!
so mission accomplished i have now enerted the Masters,
as far as i'm concerned that is my biggest challenge,
just entering...lol
now to move on to more important things like....
gettting the house clean for Rent inspection!!!
OMG! seriously i thought we just had one of those????
well no play untill wednesday afternoon then???

well this post is becoming a little depressing!....lol
i think i just might have to grab a sketch and just play anyway!
i did finsih this Kaisercraft Sketch i think last Sunday night...or was it Monday?
oh Dear?!
well here is the First day at kindy layout i have had stashed for a while waiting to have the right sketch and the right papers
thanks to Kaisercraft the class of 87' is totally perfect!
with the July 1# sketch


     
As you can see i used one of the cute littel owl buttons i had made and the spotty
 blue fabric buttons too.

I'll be sure to post up some photos in the next couple of days of wht i have been trying to create, but i'm sure i'll bonbard you with loads of sneak peeks before the July sale of the 17th!
so keep happy chickie babes!

Now it seems that in my midst was a moment of pure luck
as on my first cuppa of coffee this morning

Mazz my dear friend caught me eye on face book with a lovely
photo of her family...when she was a little sprout :)
and i loved the colours in the photo and had to comment...
next thing i know Mazz throws me a challenge colour pallet
from Mad Scrappers

saying "I'm going to Challenge the challenger"
sounds a bit like a cowboy stand off or a mortal kombat sence...lol
but i was really taking with this pallet and being my scrappen day i thought..
Why not?!
the pink was going to be a battle but i was thrilled to get stucking to my kit from


 that i won from entering Bird is the Word
totally luck duc i know THANK YOU WENDY! MWAH!
check out this months kit....

                                                         What a delish colour explosion!


Now to get into the groove even more i got out the New July sketch from Anna's Craft Cupboard

and came up with this little number
First Swing






How cute are these little buttons!
made a heap of buttons yesterday!
like maybe this much....

and a few more little one :)
once you start it's knid of hard to stop....untill you run out of buttons...lol

Well lovely ladies i hope your all have a lovely Sunday and hope your
all finding some time to get creative and make yourself smile :)

Get messy and get creative!

Huge Hello Everyone!

Well with the June Sale of Eye candy magic being a  great hit
and goodies running out, i'm happy to say i have already started planning
July sale goodies and i have a very speacial someone

but you'll have to wait...just a little...hehe
But with that aside i have finally gotten sometime..or
 just make time to scrap!

thats what its all about right!
so i let my hair down and got messy!
i'm really getting into the mix media backgrounds
 i've been seeing, so i armed myself
with Bobunny's Friday Challenge Sketch
and some paint and mist and got stuck into it!
created this layout "New PJ's"
feature little lockie with his new Buzz lightyear Pj's
using the learning curves pattern papers and some eye candy magic! :)




With the mist and paint flying around i thought i would also have a go with the Kaisercraft
using the lovely offshore collection
and a few of my own handdyed dolies
i also went a little crazy with the mists...hehe it was too fun!




As you can see i got into to doodling too and the sewing machine was dusted off
I'm now thinking up big ideas for my next couple of layouts, eyeing off a couple of challenges
and thinking i'll just practice a little before i jump into my Masters enteries...
well almost...hehe
