Glasses

My little man now has glasses.  My heart cracked just a little bit more to acknowledge that one more thing is broken,  his eyes.  That may sound silly but it has been a rough six months.  But looking on the bright side he looks absolutely adorable and looks so much like his Daddy.   I love that.  I have used Bo Bunny's Anthem paper since it is a perfect match. 

Surf

This is done for the My Minds Eye competition sketch.   I just adored the sketch and thought of this photo straight away.  I have used paper from a mix of collections.  I wanted to keep it mostly blue and red.  I have also used MME chipboard pieces. 

Love is

I didn't think I would get a chance to do this but managed to ignore the ironing and did this instead.  Scrapping Outback had a blog hop with amazing tutorials on dressing up chipboard.   In Julie Hills blog she put lace on chipboard and it looked stunning.  So that is what I have had a go at.  I also just inked the chipboard dress form and added a rose for effect.  The picture is of my sister with her youngest daughter Shynade.  I had fun playing with the photo to give it the old world look. So thanks to all the girls from Scrapping Outback with their stunning tutorials.   Hope you like this.

Beach Fun

My beautiful boy at the beach.  He had so much fun exploring the different texture of the sand and drawing in it. Kaisercraft paper used,  Blast Off.  Colours matched perfectly but not the theme.  I used micro beads for the big star and I love how they turned out!

Scrapping Outback Challenge

This is the first time I have done a challenge for Scrapping Outback.  The amazing Trudi Harrison has done this beautiful page and we need to find inspiration from it.  I have often seen Trudi's work and just love what she does, so Trudi if you read this please leave me some constructive criticism.  My page looks like a mess of flowers with no real order or rhythm.  The photo is of my girl Em who has the most beautiful eyes.  Big and blue. Anyway here is the layout.  And I can't seem to get the smaller photo to turn for me.

Making Rainbow Cookies

This is done just for the fun of doing it.  I used Little Yellow Bicycle paper.  The title is MFT dies, the snails have watch faces on them with beads in the face and I have also used glimmer mist spray.  Photo's of Emmy in the last school holidays making rainbow cookies.
