Quick! While no one is looking!

Huge Hello Everyone!

Well i know i really should be doing some thing a little more

construtive ...like cleaning the house top to bottom while i wait for my TAFE course to start

but all i really felt like doing today was sitting in my corner playing with my papers

and have a cuppa or two...lol

So i squeezed in a couple of layout challenges today to get my inspiration going...

First yesterday i did Anna's Craft cupboard Sketch

    If your stuck for a layout design give this one a whirl!

i used the Sassafrass Lass - Robotics papers

Today was mostly taking up by a Double Challenge layout,

First was a Sketch from Handmade by Suzanna

Chloe Nielsen designed this fab sketch for Handmade by Suzanna 

so armed with this sketch and a colour challenge from Deb's Creations

Pink, Greren and Black...

Now if you don't know yet i really loath Pink and green and struggle miserable with this colour combo

so it took two coffees and some hair pulling to come up with this...

Lastly i had a go at this months Stuck?! Sketch..

Oh i sssooo loved doing this sketch!

you know you got a great sketch and papers

when it just falls into place in hafe an hour...aahhh

i totally love these papers too!

Fancy pants - Happy Together

totally great on white with mists :D

well thats about it, i've got to go look busy before my man realizes i'm really doing

anything ...lol

Hope your all have a great week and i'm chat a bit on Sunday :D

thats if i get anything done to chat about...lol

Happy scrappen lovelies :D

{HUGS} 

Finally a bit of Peace....almost!

Huge Hello Everyone!

Well i think i've been trying to play catch all this week!

With Ash Starting School 5days a week i'm feeling the presser

getting every one organized for a day is well...full on!

My Hat goes off to all those Mummies out there who do this every day and go to work!

MAN! you are all like SUPER MUMS!

well another week till i start study so i'm starting to bit my nails and try not stress

while Justin is Confidently taking over the kitchen and Lockie is just like a

leech onhis father...or little baby monkey!

LOL!

i'm feeling the sting already and i haven't even left yet!

Well as you all know i Just LOVE SUNDAYS!

so i finally got to sit down and scrap and have a few coffees in my space

and hide from all the stress and worries and just enjoy 

playing with my papers :D

i tryed out the Bobunny Challenge Any Kind of  "Before And After"....

this took me a while to settle on a photo but i'm really stoked with what i came up with

   Morning After - you Preposed....

This photo was taking on the Morning After my 21st Birthday and the say day my

Sweetheart preposed to me....We were ordering Pancakes for breaky too...mmmmm!

lol! i loved using the collections Cambrigde by Bo bunny

Then i tryed my hand at the Sketch from A2Z scraplets

using yet again Bobunny and some of A2Z Scraplets Chippee

 I think Ash looks so cool! lol! totally cute!

if you love this sketch pop over to A2Z scraplets and give it a whirl!

Next i tryed out the challenge for Kraft it up! with their colour pallet challenge...

Well when i saw these colours i instantly thought of Kaisercraft Rewind collection...one of

my all time Favs!

If your like me and can't go past a colour challenge pop over to Kraft it up and give it a go!

Now i had to squeeze in a couple of quick cards...one for someone's Birthday

and Another for Love day...

My Birthday card is created with the Kaisercraft Collection

GOD! i LOVE these 6x6 pads! they are AWESOME!

Just sprayed the CHippie Numbers with a bit of Cosmic Shimmer

and think i should give them a lick of Dimional magic to make them look shimmery! 



Now i thought i would do something a little different for Justin's Love day card...

i came across one photo of us after my 21st and thought if i fiddle with the

effects on PS i will get something Arty..lol

so to make it pop i thought this Prima paper would be sweet!

all psychidelic like he make me feel! aaww isn't Love grand! :D

Well i really hope your week and your weekend has been great and your ready for round two!

LOL! i'm sure looking forward to an early night!

lol!

Happy Sunday Scrappen!

days before i got to ink it and glue it down...yeap thats how busy it's been in this house..lol

well thursday i finally enrolled in my TAFE course...NOW (New Oppourtunities for Women)

i even have apply first aid in the course outline :D Not bad hey :D

well it's only 3 days a week for 16 weeks then i'm looking at business studies for the next 6months

so that is most of my year planned...lol

Justin finishes work on Monday so it's all home duties for him..lol

He seems to be looking forward to it and getting into him jarring ...i'll explain as 

the mystery unfolds...lol

still i'm thinking i haven't blog like in a whole week!

OMG! it just doesn't feel right! i'll be sure to pop up on every Sunday 

at the very least! i promise myself!

well now let me show you what had been sitting on my scrappen desk for four days..lol

      Now you can see why! lol using the October Afternoon papers

and some over done maskin...lol

still it's different...

well i moved right along from that mess and dived into the new colour pallet from

the Colour Room

I have to admit i love Purple! so i totally loved this pallet 43

i got a little carried away with the Sassafrass flowers...lol

but i loved making the purple masked paper

This has got to be one of my most fav photos, Justin having a nap with lockie :D

well i have to admit i did get to start a new book

but that is almost finished...lol a feww very late nights...

Back In a flash!

Huge hello Everyone!

Well i was almost back in a flash...lol

well truely i have suprised mysle today not only did i get through church a live 

with both the little boys...whom wanted to speed there hot wheels across the church floor(OMG!)

But i also Baked Cup Cakes and

seemed to get another Kaisercraft sketch done?!

I know! i really have to get some more of this wonder coffee!!

it's a worry though when i realize that i'm grinding my teeth?! ...seriously only one cup tomorrow...lol

any way i thought i would give the Double Kaisercraft Sketch a go..

well i sort of made it into a simple layout cause my printer is running

out of ink and i just though why not!

so going of the original Saturday Sketch #1 for Jan 2011

i used the basic outlay for the pattern papers, and focused on the three largest

photos on the double layout and
then a few of the embellishment placementand the title placement from the 

original double for balance and then i just filled in the blanks ....

i hope some of that made sense...lol

well here is what i came up with 

   I really love these photos of Ash and ME :D

they really show those really speacil snuggle moments we have :D which i cherish with all my heart!

i used the Lush collection from Kaisercraft, papers,rubons,die cuts, thise cute little

journal blocks and some Kaisercraft large cream alphas

as well as some Kaisercraft inks!...lol

really given my kaisercraft Stash a work out this weekend :D

Well now with that out of the way i think i can read in peace...lol 

yeah i know... you think i could block out the need to scrap just long enough to read the last chapters

of my book...lol 

But my mind just clicked on how to use this double as a single layout and i was off!

Like a frog in a sock...lol i love that saying :D

Well Lovelies i really do hope your Sunday has been a scrappy one, but

if not i just hope you got to put your feet up....

or   at the very least a HUGE HUG!!!

:D

Happy Sunday!

{HUGS} 

Oh For the Love of Sundays!

Huge Hello Everyone!

Well i've got to say it is just my totally fav day of the Week Again!

I just LOVE Sundays!!

today is even over cast so i'm stoked!!

I'm thinking after i finish up with my Church thingy with my parents..(LONG Story)

 I'll come home and brew some coffee and get stuck into a sketch and clean up my stash

then i'm thinking i'm going to attack my book..only 5 chapter left!

any way with thqat in mind i better show you what i stayed up last night doing

Kasiercraft Sketch of course!...lol

 I ended up using Pear tree collection from Kaisercraft as it suited the colours in my edited photo,

One of those fun perspective photos that lockie and i fluked...lol

still i really enjoyed using the Kaisercraft chipboard as a mask for the background

along with using the yummy lace and pear strips!

well i'm running out on time and i'm sure i'll be back soon with what ever i make this afternoon

...well thats if my book doesn't swollow up my whole day...lol

Happy Sunday Scrappen :D
