Scrappy Go Lucky "strut your cuts" Challenge 3

Hi
Well I have had such a busy week & only just got to do the challenge yesterday
Head on over to Scrappy go lucky to see what carts you can use this week ...but hurry as its nearly closed for this week!!

Here is my entry using the only cart i had on the list...B is for Boy

Im slowly getting all my kids baby photos done...i don't think i will ever finish!!
I used some Sawyer's Place Washi tape....i do love that hearts & clouds washi!!

I also made a vinyl sticker to put on my kids files for school...I used some Brushed silver metal look vinyl using rock princess & i think it was basecamp for the words

The weather here in Western Australia has been a bit strange...the other day we had a wild thunderstorm...we were out in it as my kids had swim lessons down at the beach ...but im not insane..i made them stay in the car as the lightning & thunder crashed around us & my husband went to see if they had been cancelled or not...crazily they were not but there was no way i was letting my precious kids out into the weather!!! As it was as we just got up the street the car got pelted with lots of rain & hail & massive flashes of lightning & the wind was very strong!

This pic i took from our car shows how flooded the roads became along with turf farms being underwater in a matter of minutes...the tree shows just how crazy the wind was blowing!

I am going to do some washing today & then maybe get my scrap on!!
The new list is up for the week ahead over at scrappy go lucky...so im off to read what carts i might have!!

Scrappy Go Lucky "strut your cuts" Challenge 2 & oh my WASHI!!!

Hi
Well its week 2 for the Scrappy Go Lucky Challenge!!
This week i managed to use all 5 of the carts!

Create a Critter

Rock Princess

Home Decor

Cuttin’ Up

Graphically Speaking

Its quite a different take on christmas photos...but it was such a struggle to get my eldest to stand next to santa....I think it might be our last Shop Santa photo for him...which makes this one Priceless!!


As a design team member for Sawyer's Place, I received some fun washi tape exclusive to Sawyer's Place to have a play with!
I have made some cute robot cards using the Titus Range of Washi tape

I used the Collection of washi tape to create a robot using the offcut from the other one!! It saved throwing it out & looks quite good...i will add a sentiment to the card when i use it as it could be for a get well or a happy birthday!

Isnt it the CUTEST boy range ever!!!

Other Designs i played with are Hearts & clouds..its so so sweet!!

I love how easy washi tape is to use!!
It is very hot here today & Im melting away....

A little bit of sunshine on a dreary grey day

Hi
Today started out very dreary & grey....really didnt want to get out of bed...even the yougest said lets sleep in til 10.30!

But we had a playdate with the kindy mums & yes we were over an hour late as it was!!
The grey clouds followed us from home all the way to the park & then seemed to dissapear as the kids ran off & had some fun while i sat with the mums in the sun...i think it was what we needed.

The park we went to was nicknamed Dr Seuss Park due to all the colourful poles & mounds in the white red & blue colours....it was fun...you cant be gloomy at a place like this!!

After a fun morning at the park we were a little bit naughty & got hungry jacks for lunch & then we came home so i could scrapbook this layout for a challenge that is due to end very SOON!!

This challenge was to use a particular page in the ROCK PRINCESS Cartridge handbook
go check out the M.A.G Challenge by the page blog here

Here is my page....its my grandma & her sisters celebrating grandmas 90th birthday!! you cant leave these 3 alone for too long...or if you do cruises get planned and all sorts of mayhem can happen....they love the casino too & go every week....i cant wait til im 90 & get to have some fun too!!

I used dcwv paper...random birthday paper i have had in my stash for ageeessss.....flower brads...tim holtz distress stickles & ink in worn lipstick & the Bad Influence & lightning bolt wings ( does that have a proper name??) from the Rock Princess Cartridge

thanks for stopping by

1st of December ......countdown to christmas begins!!

WOW i just cant believe its December already!! It means i have been blogging for a whole year!! Maybe not as much as i would have liked but hey it can only get better??

Ive done all the christmas cards, secret sant gifts, teacher gifts & am now onto sorting out gifts for the family!
Im getting a bit excited about christmas this year & to think of next year with so many new experiences for us all!!
We are putting up the xmas tree today ( as per tradition in this family!) we also get a photo of the kids together near the tree or in costumes...im thinking my 11 yr old isnt wanting to do the whole santa suit thing this year so by the tree it will be!

Its a cooler day than the last few days so all windows & doors are open to cool the house back down...our power went off for awhile today also but that just made me do some cleaning!! lol

Here are a few photos of things ive done.....these are some photos of our day trip from cairns to the daintree!
I used the RELAX from rock princess cartridge & i cant remember if the barb wire was from indie art or scal!

here is a little basket i made for my sons choir teacher...i used the easter 2010 cart for the basket & jots for the wreath!


have a great start to the december rush!
