On the 11th day of challenges Zoe challenged you, use this title prompt. You can make any title you wish, with the word 'Always' in it. Some examples with a Christmas theme are: We Always make Santa Cookies, 'Always singing', 'Always happy', "Santa Always Comes to our house' - the ideas are endless!!

If you have been playing the progressive Scrapbook Challenge this month you are nearly done! If you choose to do this as a stand alone, that is also welcome :p

ALWAYS BE MYSELF

I used this gorgeous paper from My Minds Eye - Lost and Found Range. i've been waiting for a really special layout as i think this paper is just truly gorgeous.

 

 

The paper edges were all distressed. Prima flowers, Kaisercraft Stamp, My Minds Eye - Lost and Found range self-adhesive Alphabet Stickers.

 

Stamp is from Kaisercraft, jewels, stickers from stash.

catch up and a layout

hello blogger friends

what a fantastic November we are having. summer finally seems to have arrived and the Scrapbook Convention came to PE for the first time ever!

and as you know PE ladies rock and we had the best day last week Saturday Scrapping with Glenda and Jowilna at the Radisson.Christmas themed, we did layouts and projects and cards. Can't say too much more until the ladies in Cape Town and Johannesburg have had their turn. So watch this space to see what we did at convention!

Over at Scrapbook Challenges is this week's sketch - 323.

Here is my take on it.

 

i don't usually use big titles on my layouts, but quite like this one. thanks to my trust cricut machine for the title.

 

I used an old sheet of Kaisercraft, and cardstock. 2 sheets of paper were embossed in the cuttlebug and embossed, one with glitter powder (circles) and the other with ink.

 

 

the spritzing on the cardstock didn't quite come out too well.

 

hope you do the sketch, and post it to the gallery at scrapbook challenges.

 

 

happy scrappin' this week :)

A ladies diary layout

Good day bloggers!!

Over at Scrapbook Challenges earlier this month i did sketch 321.

Here is the sketch:

This is my layout for the Sketch Crew:

i used the gorgeous ladies diary range from Graphic 45, paper and chipboard as well as flowers and brands from their stapels range.

I distressed the papers and used the paper as journalling tags. I didn't matt my photo, but sanded it instead.

My little girl is growing up so fast, i can't believe she is 3 and a half already. Such a sweet child, i love scrapping these pretty pictures of her!

Hope you are able to capture your precious moments to and create a beautiful album to reminise over in years to come.

Happy scrappy weekend.

Little Yellow Bicycle Kit

Dear fellow Scrapbookers

Trust you all had a fabulous weekend, and are back into the swing of the working week!

Since yesterday was Monday, that means there is a new sketch over at Scrapbook Challenges - Sketch 319.

Here is the single layout sketch:

Pop on over to see what the other Sketch Crew members have come up with!

I got this awesome Little Yellow Bicyle paper - 'splash' range. I made a lovely summer beach kit, with chipboard and double sided paper. I so enjoyed this kit, I will definitely be doing more Little Yellow Bicycle kits in the future.

Here is the kit, which sold out this weekend at the I-Scrap function:

 

 

 

I used 2 double sided papers, made some tags, and used the paper to make waves.

 

How cute are these chipboard pieces? The lollipops went perfectly with the pictues I wanted to use.

 

 

This is a bonus single layout I included in the kit, as there was so much chipboard over. What a great value for money packet of chipboard shapes!

 

 

I hope to get some scrapbooking done this week.Thanks for stopping by today.

 

Happy Scrappin'
