Happy Birthday again...
Little Shop of Sketches is having a birthday sketch competition (as mentioned below) and you had to do a LO using one of their sketches. Here is my take on sketch number 2523 which I think I copied to a tee (as we were meant to but just try and ignore the shadows - it was a very sunny day!!!):

Home Ec Class
What a week this has been. We were mostly all still sick and Luke has been too scared to sleep, so no scrapping till Thursday. But I managed to do my homework for my Home Economics class and nothing else!!
This week we had to do an "Off The Page" using at least 3 different flowers (which teach told us how to make) and different materials - and bonus points for a book too. This is my first OTP creation, so I'm very proud of it - hee hee hee. Can't decide if I will put scrap stuff in it or use it for something else... So here it is:

Live, Laugh, Love...
Dream Girls set a challenge for the month of May to do a LO based on the words "Live, laugh, love" - you had to have those words somewhere in your LO, use the colours red, turquoise, black and white, use some material at least 3 x 3 in size and cut out pictures from paper to use as embellishments. Far out!!! What a lot to remember!!! Anyway, I found this old sweatshirt of Lukes when looking for material with roads/trucks etc on it and thought "Yep, that's it!" and this is what happened... hope you like it :) Lots of paper embellishments - the flowers, the houses, the trees. The material section is HUGE and the colours are everywhere. Thought I would throw in the UFO with sparkling lights to help you 'laugh' - hee hee hee. It says "Whatever road you take in life make sure you live, laugh, love!". Thanks for the challenge, Dream Girls!

Crafty Sketches... made my day/weekend!!
OMG!! I can't believe it!! I placed 2nd in the Crafty Sketches comp for April and have won this beautiful bangle/watch!!!
Absolutely made my weekend coz we're all at home sick!!! Last Sunday night Luke had a fever so I was up all night with him and then hubby stayed home Monday with him. Then he got sick too so they were both ill all week and hubby home all day Friday (left a course on Thursday to come home as he shouldn't have been in there in the first place!!... Can you tell he got an earful from me??! LOL). I was meant to go out Thursday night, but coz hubby ill had to stay home and look after Luke. Then I got sick - of course, just in time for the weekend - and so we've had to postpone brunch tomorrow with some friends, who were coming last Sunday, but we had to postpone them coz of Luke being sick!!!
So I've not scrapped since Weds and am feeling in need of it but all I'm going to do nowis curl up in front of telly till about 8:30pm and then head to bed - Luke has had me up since 4:40am this morning!!!!
Anyway, thanks to the ladies at Crafty Sketches - they've made a crappy week end happily!!!

English Assignment Over and Other Challenges...
Okay, so this week at Design School we had English. We had to journal at least 75 words but bonus points for over 100 words. Well, I can talk till the cows come home so it was more a matter of shutting me up coz I ran out of space!!! LOL :) Also had to have a 4 word title so this is what I did: 
This LO is for Scrappin Patch May Sketch Challenge. Did this one really quickly - 1 hour - so I hope it doesn't look like it. It just seemed to come together:
Then this one is for Little Shop of Sketches, Sketch #37. It's Daddy and Nana in the spa with Luke, but I've neglected to mention Daddy... and have in fact cut him out of all bar one picture... and really just focussed on Luke and Nana (Please forgive me, Daddy!!):
