For U Mum

Sketch #82 from Tanya Leigh @ Little Shop of Sketches seemed perfect to at last scrap this pic from last summer when Luke stopped to pic a buttercup for me. (awwwwwwwww) Here is my layout:



Come over to the site to see the sketch and join in the fun with us - there are prizes!!! Or just simply come over and see what the Design Team has done. You never know - you might get inspired :)

Thanks for looking and take care.

Chillin... with Little Shop of Sketches

Sketch #80 with Little Shop of Sketches see's Luke and I 'chillin' in the spa pool on a hot summer's day. It's been sooooo humid this summer that we've kept the spa on cool and are using it just like a swimming pool.

Luke and I love to stay in it for up to 2 hours, when our skin has totally wrinkled and we're very prune like. He loves to lie on my back and snuggle (and I have to admit, I love it too!)

Hope you like the layout. Here is the sketch:


And here is my take on it:


Don't forget to come and give it a go, and join in the fun with us at LSoS!

Strawberry Fields Forever

Hi everyone

Long time no post! Crafty Sketches have got me enthused with their latest sketch for February. This is my take on it... and I love it! My little one eating our first crop of strawberries he and daddy grew in the garden, and enjoying the taste of them in the chocolate dip. I love how the chocolate is dripping out making him look really vampirish in the last shot. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm gotta love it!



Thanks for the sketch, you Crafty ladies! :)

Take care

From Screen 2 Scrap

Well, I thought I would take up the challenge that "From Screen 2 Scrap" gave us for January.

The criteria involved having to have 1) a red title, 2) a clock, 3) an 80s photos. Well, I don't have any 80s photos so Paul gave me one of him and Chris to scrap.
You can see it here: http://screen2scrap.blogspot.com/2011/01/another-entry-from.html

It was a lot of fun - I haven't done a 'recipe' challenge in a long time, so I think this might just be a new thing to do for 2011. Watch this space, coz I always have famous last words!! LOL

Thanks for looking.

Our new form of punishment...

... pegs on all fingers! Well, it was going to be our new form of punishment, but he enjoyed it too much. LOL.

I was folding the washing one day and Luke decided he wanted all his fingers to have pegs on them. This is the result - one happy, crazy little boy!

This layout is done for Crafty Sketches January challenge, so thanks to the ladies there for getting me inspired enough to scrap these pics - coz I've had them sitting there for over a year!



Hope you like and thanks for looking :)

A new year... and a new competition

Well, I've been extremely lazy re the scrapbooking lately, but then again, IT IS SUMMER! And what a summer we've been having - absolutely glorious.

Then today it's a bit overcast and our household is feeling extremely lazy, so I've taken the opportunity while daddy is looking after Luke, to scrap. So I scoured the internet and decided to do the 15 Jan sketch challenge with Stuck?! Sketches.

And since it's summer here, what's more fitting to scrap than Luke playing with our dog, Rusty, last summer? I love this photo of the two of them, and think the papers I've used are fun and bright to capture the mood of the photo.

For once, I've kept it clean and simple, which I have a real problem with, but didn't want to overwhelm the pic.



Hope you like it and thanks for looking :)

Just darling....

I don't normally do 'simple', but for some reason, Sketch #73 for Little Shop of Sketches just made me do it!! LOL.

This LO is of my "little darling" when he was about 8 weeks old and of me, when I was simply exhausted. (Well, nothing has changed on that front, other than my 'little darling' sometimes isn't! LOL)

Here is my take on it:



Come and have a look at the sketch and what the other girls did over at Little Shop - they're FABULOUS!

Thanks for looking.

Oh, and I'm off to Fiji for the next 10 days so won't be doing Sketch #74 :( See you when I get back :)
