Scrap The Boys August 2011

Hi all, I am back again today cause I have actually scrapped again!!! Woooooo!!!!

This time I have joined in over at Scrap The Boys for August, an inspiration picture is the challenge for this month and I just LOVE it.

Its just calling out to use some yummy A Lil' Somethin' goodies on this layout so I did just that and here it is:

 The lovely Kim Jeffress had the VERY cool Fiskars cloud punches at Camp Mojo and I thought to myself I will have to get me those I think. I knew I would use them all the time and yep I have used them already!!! Punched some out using some corrugated cardboard!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and for your lovely comments

Take care xxxxx

Kraft It Up August 2011

Hello again!!!!

Today I am back with the very cool Kraft It Up challenge for August.

This month is to be inspired by this sketch and to use Kraft (as always)

Here is my take.... I have to be honest and say I'm not 100% pleased with this layout, it was done in a bit of a rush to meet the deadline. I decided to splat some red mist everywhere but then it looked like the layout had the measles LOL so I swiped some white paint over it to tone it down!!!! I guess the memory is there anyway even though not my best work.

 I used a foam dot backing as a mask here and don't
you just love the Chip Chop shop chippie sun and cloud? Too cute!!

So what are you waiting for, pop on over to the Kraft It Up blog, check out the 'other' STUUNING CT examples and join in the cool challenge, love to see you join in!!

Thanks heaps for looking and leaving your lovely comments, I just love to read them all xx

Camp Mojo Goodness!!!!

I have yet again been very slack with blogging but I have HEAPS of layouts to share now since going to Camp Mojo!!! Let me tell you I had such a great time, I was so delighted to meet Deb Godley and Maree Warren who are now good friends of mine. Boy did we have some laughs!!! Of course I loved sitting next to and sharing a room with Kim Jeffress 

I managed quite a few layouts in between the laughing, eating, drinking and general shenanigans!!!

***WARNING LOTS OF PHOTOS**** Here goes!!!

My favourite from the weekend of Oliver, look at those eyes.......

Now in no particular order....this one was a challenge set at Camp Mojo to use the colours, orange, teal brown and white.

 Wanted to use my A Lil Somethin bits and pieces!!! Thanks Wends and Susan xxxx 

 Have been eyeing off the Tim Holtz film strip for ages now, I finally got me some!!

I have had this photo of Luke printed for ages but was a little stuck for ideas especially for the title but while I was at Camp Mojo it all just came to me!!!!! Thank you to lovely Kim for giving me a 6 x6 Coredinations cardstock pack!!! 

 and for the lend of her cool cloud punches!!!!

This was the great class we did with Sherry Mendoza, we used texture paste on the chippie frame and heat gunned it to make it bubble, then glimmermisted and attached to the canvas!! 

 Here is that same photo of Oliver from earlier only this time in Sepia.

 This one below was for another challenge to have a painted background. I slapped this layout together really quickly and was lucky enough to get 2nd for it!!!!!! I took inspiration from the little owl button by using the colours it has in it.

 Loving my Dymo labeller at the moment!!!

The only layout I did of me all weekend. Sherry was handing out the Teresa Collins silhouette paper for free so I jumped up and grabbed a sheet, I really like silhouettes at the moment!!! It was a little bit too bright by itself so I popped a Hambly overlay on top and now it looks better!!! The girls all made me put this one in for the 'Shiny Things' challenge at Camp Mojo but I didn't win. 

 Phew, hope I didn't bore you all too much with all that. At the moment I am working on my Masters entries and I am running out of time fast so I had better get back to it!!! I will be back very soon with my Kraft It Up layout for August. Thanks so much or stopping by and getting through it all. Take care all xxxxxx
