Been busy

I got a new kit a few days ago from scrapagogo..it was the best yet! Here is what I did with it

I told you I had been busy!!!

Quick scrapping!

These were the photo's we took on Friday and I have scrapped them already....highly unusual for me!
The LO is based on sketch 245 at pencil lines

Always happy to be together...........

that's Dan, Beth and Ethan, and they will be tomorrow since we are all getting together for a weekend away to celebrate dad's 70th birthday. Hoping to take a fresh batch of photo's to start scrapping nexy week too!

This LO was based on sketch 243 at pencil lines and I'm still using up old scrapagogo stash for the use it up challenge!

Funny girl

Beth loves to lark around and has a great sense of fun and playfulness about her....I love it (in small doses!)
I did this LO using up scraps from lots of leftover scrapagogo  kits and worked from sketch 161 at creative scrappers as my inspiration point. TFL x

Modern Day Princess

Just thought I'd post this LO I did for sketch 242 at Pencil lines of my super cute neice in her snow white dress brandishing a light sabre...she doesn't need a handsome prince to rescue her...she can take care of herself!!! All supplies used from various scrapagogo kits.

Remember when it was sunny?

It's rained so much this week, I'm longing for some lovely warm sunshine again, so it cheered me up a bit to make a LO from a sunny day of my little neice Caitie playing in the garden. I used this weeks sketch from Stuck as my starting point and all of the supplies are from the February kit from Scrapagogo. Thanks for looking!

Tranquility

Sketch #47 from sketchbilites was perfect for a LO I had in mind using one of my fabby scrapagogo kits....

One sketch two layouts

For this weeks sketch (144) at creative scrappers I've done two layouts, one is traditional paper scrapping and the other is digi, hope you like them both!

I used my kit from scrapagogo for the paper one and a mixture of a couple of digi kits both by Zoe Pearn from sweet shoppe designs

A sketch

I love taking inspiration for a layout from a sketch, it's really great at kick starting the creative process when you've not done any scrapping for a while.

Scrapagogo not only produce great kits, but also provide loads of inspiration too....this layout is based on the Feb 'Blueprint to go' sketch.

It's my lovely little nephew looking so smart ready for his first day in school.......

Where is Melman?

The story behind this layout is when Dan has an ache or pain we always call him Melman after the sickly

giraffe in the madagascar movie! So when we saw these guys at universal studios we just had to get a photo of them together.  It's based around sketch 114 at Creative scrappers and I've used mainly scrapagogo kit stuff here.

Happy scrapping

Finally I've managed to spend some time in the my craft room and completed some layouts....I was beginning to think I was never gonna get in there.

I had 3 Scrapagogo kits piled up unused, so thought it was high time I made a start on them, here's what I came up with....

Onwards and upwards

Spurred on by finally getting a scrapbook layout done at the weekend, I decided to keep going and this is what I came up with (Mainly using up bits n pieces from old scrapagogo kits) speaking of which, a new one will be popping through my letterbox very soon...Yipee!

TFL! x

So glad it's the weekend!

I've had a busy and challenging working week and to top it off have got a cold, so I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself  right now! Anyway, this morning I took Dan to footy and stood in the rain watching the match (we lost 6-0  Ouch!), but it was nice to be out and even though we lost I enjoyed the game.

I'm really pleased with this month's scrapgogo kit, so much so that I've already done 2 layouts with it and it only arrived on Thursday!

Go go power rangers!

This is my take on this week sketch over at Creative Scrappers. Dan really didn't want to pose for a photo, but we managed to persuade him that his cousin Ethan would love to see him with the power rangers! I've only included a very small photo of Dan in the layout since he was so embarassed about it!! I've used some of this months fab scrapgogo kit.

Scrapagogo hybrids

I am currently trying to get to grips with PSE6 and decided it would be fun to try a layout only using this months scrapagogo hybrid kit. It's quite a basic layout, no drop shadows or anything too complicated, but since I am a complete beginner (this is only my third digi layout!) I am  quite pleased with it.

I'm now off to play with the real paper kit...woohoo! Thanks for looking!

Scrapagogo Feb kit

Just a quick post to show a page made from my latest scrapagogo kit..

No snow

No more snow for us, even though lots of the UK has got quite a lot at the mo, so I thought I'd make a quick LO about the now we did have a few weeks ago instead. I've used up the last few bits of my December scrapagogo kit to make this one....

Cheers!

This layout was created using some of my January scrapagogo kit...these kits just keep on getting better. I sometimes open them and think OMG that's not what I would normally buy, but when I start to cut into them I am never disappointed.

I also tested out my new MM slice - I love it! I cut the title, the flourishes and flowers with it in seconds.

Yum-tastic

It's been my day off work today and after doing some much needed housework I spent a short while finally cutting into my January scrapagogo kit to make this...



I have just ordered my Christmas pressie! Yes I know it's a bit overdue, but I've been deciding what I REALLY wanted to get with the money I was given at Christmas and today I finally decided on a making memories slice, so I'm now really looking forward to trying it out....hope it comes soon!

Family

I've managed to get a bit of scrapping time in this week, which is good because I'm still playing catch-up...this photo was taken back in August. I don't always scrap in date order, but I'm trying to finish off my 2009 album and had a few gaps. I've got some great snowy photos from the last few days and I'm looking forward to scrapping them, but have challenged myself to finish last years album first! I still have loads to finish for our Oct 2009 holiday album, but that's another story...
