Now for something completey different...

Huge hello Everyone!!

Well i haven't been up to anything too different...lol

Just enjoying a Sunday with My boys , trying to wash some walls for our rent

inspections on Wednesday...same day i get to enrol!!!

Really looking forward to getting back into study and then onto greater things...

not that my boys are not the greatest things i'll ever have/be...Just need to get back into the rat race so to speak..lol

will miss the SAHM routine...and i know my scrappen will turn into a late night thing

Saylav!

What ever will be will be! :D

Just as long as my boys are happy and i get some me time all is sweet!

How you have enjoyed your Sunday!

I bet Sunday has to be one of the best days!

Any hoo! i've gotten into the Colour Room (AT LAST!) i've been floating around but never seem to stick to the colour pallet...lol  well least i've been getting the inspiration..lol

Now wait till you see this Pallet

How Yummy!! and the layouts in the Colour Room!

OMG! seriously worth drooling over!!

so after a while of staring i was all for a simple layout and amp up the

saturation of the pallet...

But thigs got a little out of hand and the page took on a mind of it's own...lol

This is a photo of my Neice Princess Maddison :D i thought her bather totally fit this pallet!
and i'm so glad i used some felt for a change! :D
Totally enjoyed rolling around in my Sassafrass stash...lol :D

then My scrap table was turned into a Cave (Kids building cubbbys..lol) so i cranked up Photo shop and dived in a template challenge from PickleBerry Pop...Man i almost forgot how much Fun it is to scrap on the computer! no Mess no fuss! no worries! ....i think i would miss the hands on feel and the shopping!...lol mind you it's just as easy to get into shopping with all the digital kits! lol!

I have ponder many times about going all digital but i think i'm too far gone to get rid of my stash...just too much!!...lol

Well here is what  i came up with Using the Wild Child Kit by Lindsay Jane and the Template by LorieM Designs

Now here is a question....Could you go all digital???
I also have a real issue with storage!! Now no joke i haven't bought an album for a while so i have now four piza boxes full of finished layout!! How do you cope with your Storage??? Not just the materials i mean the Finished creations!!....Should i just make a libary??? LOL!

Oh well least i had fun making them...lol

Happy scrappen lovely :D
{HUGS}

Another Jack!

Huge hello Everyone!!!

Yes you read right i Jacked another layout from Scrap Jacked *Blushing*

I Just couldn't help myself!..lol

Well this time i think i think i really pushed the comfort zone...

Right out the window!!! ..lol

I wanted to Jack  Lisa Layout,
I was draw by the lovely textures and the circles and over all style.

Now this was a HUGE challenge

as i just don't do Flowers much on a layout and the shabby chic is so not my thing,

I totally love shabby chic but i don't do it cause..well i haven't felt my

boys really fit into a shabby chic layout..lol

 More like loud bright colours, if you know what i mean..lol

so this was a totally drama....figuring out the flowers and the Papers!

oh seriously nilly got a headache over choosing papers!!..lol

i change my mind so many times!

so i settled with Basic Grey...you don't know how much i would have killed for

 some Prima or Webster!

LOL!

Any whoo!

i came up with this layout ,

I'm really happy with the texture on this layout! i love the circles and the machine stitching over them!

I've got to find another way to use this in another layout just LOVE it!!

So HUGE thanks to Lisa! for pushing out of my comfort zone and showing me another thing i Love to do!

So if you haven't caught on yet to the Wickedly Inspiring Scrap Jacked Blog

GO! Check It Out!! NOW!!

So i didn't even mention what a funny day i've had besides Freaking over my non-shabby 

stash...lol 

I honestly thought today was Saturday! got up and got ready for outing to my parents, kids dress and ready and..... nothing?! until i phoned my Mum and she laughed so hard! 

Thanks Mum! now i really do feel like a goose!

LOL! still that reminds me of a fortune i got in a cookie this Chirstmas...

"One good thing about being wrong, is the joy it brings others"

Yes! i got that as a fortune! Seriously!

Now if thats not insightful what is?! ..ROFL

Well i ended up taking the kids to the park and haven a picnic

 and haven fun soaking up the sun and playing with the kids
Taking some fun photos and feeding the Ducks

Next on the pitch is a layout for the New revamped Scrap Jacked! Now i've got to say there is so much talent on this little blog! the challenge is to pick one DT layout to scrap lift, sounds  easy right? well the hard part is chooseing just one DT layout..lol seriously worth checking out!

Now for Januray DT line up i chose to scrap lift "Christine" Layout, i really love her hand made boarders and the way she used the Boy papers from Echo park... so out came my stash the Echo papers

    Just love these colours in these papers! so bright and playful, suits my Boys down to a T!

I enjoy this challenge so much i may just scrap lift an other DT layout...looking at "Mel"s with that

that the course that i applied for i didn't need too, i've just got to enrol on the day?!

so i'm very excited to say for the 19th i'll be a student again! I'm all so picking up application forms

for our loacl supermarkets to see if i can possible get some part time/full time work too... 

Well with that simmering in the back of my mind i really have not been able to stop scrappen

weather that is a good or bad thing...i'm not sure...lol

Maybe it's my body way of trying to get something more construtive done than worrying

or maybe just cause i may not find the time too soon..EEEEKKk!!

well i've been hitting the challenges pretty hard so i'll try and pop up a couple post 

sperately so not to confuse myself...lol

so first i'll show you my layout and card i've done for the My Minds Eye

challenges this month

not only are they haven a layout challenge but also a card challenge this month!

Why not give it a go?!

Here is the layout sketch

Looking back on this layout i'm wondering what i was trying to achieve with the twinge????
Oh Well i really do love this Collections  Fine and Dandy from My Minds Eye, i purchased this kit full of delightful goodies from Scrapbooking from Scratch  after i had won a voucher from Scrap the boys  Now if your like me and LOVE a wicked Kit then you should totally checkout Scrapbooking from Scratch there is heaps to choose from and really great bang for your buck!

Next i gave the Card sketch a go, now we all know i'm not much of a card maker...but it's a great way to use up all your scraps! and i've got to say it has been so handy haven Birthday cards on hand!...lol

I used up some of My Bloom and Grow Collection from My Minds Eye    

If you love these sketch too you really should give them a go and post your creation on the Blog before the 20th Januray :D

Next i'll show you my Creation for Kaisercraft Inspire challenge

now the go is to be inspred by a photo they post up in the forum

now you got to be a forum member to do this challenge...not at all bad..lol

still here is the photo to grab our inspiration

when i saw this i instantly thought of it as a sketch!
lol but how cool is this wall! i would totally love to have wall with rndom shapped boxes to fill!
now bare with me i dived into my Homemade papers from Kaisercraft and came up with this layout

Honestly when i saw these papers i thought the last thing i would use would be these ducks...lol

well i think i was completely wrong! lol

these ducks were perfect to give the eye movement around the layout

Ok i think i'll leave it at that, two challenge a post is fairly good...

i'll be back tomorrow to show the others i've

done over the past couple of days
