Hey Hey its Scrappen Sunday!

Huge Hello Everyone!

Well what a fun filled week we have had this week!

Besides me catching a cold and feeling rotten for most of the week
(thank god i can breath again!)
Tafe was amazing this Firday as we started our First Aid course and i now know how to
do preform CPR, i'm feeling awesome about leasrning all this as 
i really want to help instead of just panicing, god forbid anything happens
but if it does lets hope i get in and help!

I am so greatful for my class at TAFE all the ladies that go are fantastic and our lecture
Sarah Lotzs is AMAZING! i'm always happy to
see what she has to say and have a good time learn with her,
Very excited for one of our project/assesments is to create a vision board/mindmap
sort of...but the theme is Yourself now, future and your goals..
so super excited to use my skills in a creative way :)
so i will keep you all posted on that massive creation, with process details.

I have also got to say i have had a few awesome days of being creative with my partner,
most times when he goes off to paint or draw we stay in differnt areas,
but this week i was scrappen right next to him, well give or take a couple of feet..lol
while Justin was finishing of his HUGE painting for The Vasse Art Award held on the 23rd April
it's called "Sea Within" it's really amazing...i should have taking a photo but i think i'll wait till he is finished to show you all, anyway
it was really nice just enjoying each others company while doing something we both love.

So what layout did i get done while i was scrappen???
i had a crack at a Scrap Jacked layout :)
i Scrap lifted Vicki's layout, using it as a sketch..so many layers and i love that she created her own
background with a little mist.

so with this in mind i broke out the paints cause they were all there
with Justin..hehe



As you can see i really had some fun :)
These handmade canvas and denim flowers i will be sell on the 1st of May
with a bunch of other goodies i've been making.

I also used the scraps from my DT pack from  Scrap Therapy

whom has just posted up one of my first creations with this  

As they have launched a new forum so you should checkout the new set up!
so joy! and they are holding comps this month with $25 each comp! how joy!
they have also brought back Man of the Month
this is where they pick a designer to play with and create some awesome artworks with!
this month is Teresa Collins and you'll find my work here 
       Oh what a thrill to see my name and work in a Guest Design spot!
EEEEE! so exciting!

so now i've got to show you some of the goodies i have made this past two weeks,
funny to find out that i really need to time manage if i'm going to get any scrappen done with 
handmaking these goodies, TAFE and rent inspection on Wednesday!
lol! i think it's only hard when it something you don't like doing like cleaning and homework..lol

still i so love making these fimo creations and have loads more ideas! as well as these flowers!
OMG! i so love making flower! with two boys i never really got into flower
but to make them! so much Fun!





    

Oh i am so excited to start on some raindow silk flowers! but more a vintage rainbow..
some thing to go with those bottle tops caps,
Oh so excited waiting on a button, badge maker too!
oh the fun i am going to have!

So all of these and more will be posted up for sale in kits and singles on
1st MAY 2011 as well as my new Monthly Blog Sketch challenge
where you can have a chance to win one of my handmade kits :)

so much fun for everyone!
lol well i think thats about it...ummm oh yesterday was a FULL on clean out scrap stash!
OMG! the things i found!
i was thinking of making up a couple scrap kits from my over flowing stash
huummm where to put all this stuff!...lol
sort of shot myself in the foot when my partner saw how much stuff was really hidding in my 
scrappen space, he is now sure i don't need to buy any more till my 30th birthday!
Man that like 3years away!....
oh well :)

Weekend is almost here!

Huge Hello Everyone!

i thought i would be sneaky and pop up a 
blog post before school starts today...hehe

i really wanted to share with you all a few different creative things
i've been doing through the week

First i was stoked with how my bottle caps came out for this
months swap at Amandas Swap blog

this months theme was
St Patricks Day
are the Luck of the Irish....well thats what they say


So i'm thinking i really loved creating these vintage bottle caps i'll make more to pop in
 with my fimo creations...slowly buliding up my goodies for
my homemade embellishment kits...
still dreaming :)
an ideas??

well next i squeezed in a Challenge layout from the
sketches i have been gathering
i couldn't pass up this beauty from



 
  How joy is this sketch!! pop over to Handmade by Suzanne
all the juciy details!

I used the ever delish Little Boy By Echo Park
Oh you got to love breaking out the brights!
lol

Now for a little shock i actually sat down and did
some drawing with my partner
well he was paintin and john butler was playing
and i had the itch to pull out the charcoal and pastels
and seriously...OMG! i forgot how much i loved drwing with music!

if you haven't realized before children i was a starving Artist...lol
so a few years in Art school and a life long thrist for creativity...lol
i'm sure you all understand...
but here is my first charcoal and pastel drawin i have done in 
years and years!



so all i got to say is, GO have a doodle! pens, pencils anything that makes a 
mark! and enjoy just being creative!

well time is running out and i'm being pulled away...aawwwww

One Creative Morning....

ne CraHuge Hello Everyone!

Well what a week!

with all the excitment of Deb's Creations 
Launch of the New Emerald Faires
and Isla...
I have had sometime to get my homework done from TAFE and
find sometime to have a go at a couple of challenges... YEAH!

Now i really happy to have had the creative bug the past weekend so i could also have a crack 
at the Fimo and flowers i have been wanting to make


 Well what do you think?? Good enough to start an Embellishment
Kit club???...lol
Oh i can dream can't i ...lol
Dream in progress :D

So i was totally amped up on Sunday to get into some serious scrappen
as i had all morning to "Go for it" as my partner put it...lol
thank hun :) 
so i wanted to have a Go at this months Sketch from Anna's Craft cupboard
Using the Cosmic Crieckt Garden Vairiety collection



So funny when your trying to photographe a bunch
of
little kids...what a mission to get them all looking in the same place..lol
these photos crack me up!
i so loved when My Big Brother and his totally LOVEABLE family came over
for christmas...LOVED ever moment!
and so did the Boys!


Now what awesome News that Scrap the Boys Are BACK!
WOOHOO!
so i had to jump in to this challenge!
being "Freeze a moment in time"
 i couldn't help thinking back to when Justin
asked me to Marry him...aaarrhhh
totally Bliss! ..lol well i think so :)
so here is my take on this challenge
using Cosmic Cricket Get Happy collection



One lastt one before the morning was through...
this one was more of based on a sketch and then carried away on it's own and looked
nothing like the sketch i started with...lol
but i love this photo and it was one of the most beautiful Birthday mornings
i have ever shared with our little family
total bliss!



Using that fantastic Seaside Collections from Kaisercraft
and adding some shells we found on the morning :) 

Almost forgot my Mum asked me to create two
card for Two Decans that are have their Ordination in the next few weeks
so i seeked out some doves of peace and played in photoshop
Mounted them on some Basic Grey papers


I have also got so super exciting news but i have to keep my lips totally sealed...
Hehehe, so sorry to be cheecky but i'm EXCITED!

well chickies i hope you have found some inspiration
or at least something pretty to look at, lol
Oh Also Don't forget to Give My March Colour Combo Challenge a go!
See here for the Juicy Details
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments!
they make me smile and realize there is more scrapbooking addicted
loves out there! 
Happy scrappen Chickies!
