Show Us Your Stuff and Get Picky September 2011

Well I have managed to join in for 2 more challenges before the end of the month was up!!! I have created one layout but I have met the criteria for both the challenge at Show Us Your Stuff and for the September 15th sketch at Get Picky The challenge at SUYS this month was to use multi photos and stripes on your layout and of course a handmade item. My handmade item is the gorgeous bottle cap stars from A Lil Somethin

Scrap the Girls September 2011

Well what a miserable day we have here today......so wet, windy, cold and stormy. Thank goodness we don't have to go anywhere today!!! Great day for staying in and getting my scrap on me thinks!!!

Today I have a Scrap The Girls layout to share with you. I am not sure that I have ever joined in over there as I don't have any girl kiddies but I want to try and do a few more girlie layouts as I do have a sister and a Mum and myself I could scrap!!!

So the challenge for this month is to use clips on your layout. It could be bulldog clips, paper clips etc so here is what I came up with......this is a layout of my gorgeous sister who has been living in London this past year and I miss her like crazy!!!!

The challenges are awesome and there is a chance to win a $25 gift voucher to spend on........yep you guessed it Scrapmatts chipboard!!!! Who wouldn't want to win that?
