Colour Challenge at LPS

Hiya

You know what I love about these colour challenges I keep doing lately... I love that they make me go through my supplies and find things that I had completely forgotten about and actually use them.

There was this great challenge over at Life Paper Scrapbook...

For this challenge this was the palate:

Pretty huh! I didn't quite manage exactly this but these were the papers I had to work with....

I did end up having to go with a brighter darker yellow than the butter yellow in the sample, you can see why... my mother-in-law's cardy needed to be accomodated.

So this is my page: Kinda Modern Kids

I wanted to document somewhere about the technology that has come to be a part of my children's generation everyday. So this one is about Skype.

Thanks for coming by

Creative Scrappers

Woohoo I'm back! Not because the little one slept..well she did a little, but because the girls are all outside playing with the neighbours in the backyard.

So I have to take my moments when I can grab them...

I did a page for the Creative Scrappers Challenge No 253. It didn't end up as much like the sketch as I intended but I just went where it took me.

Here is the sketch:

As you can see I kinda went with the top bit and forgot about the bottom bit. I actually finished the page and then went, oh look at that, there is another bit at the bottom. ha! Oh well.

This page is about my lovely friend Jules, Hi Jules!

Project Life Wednesday..

Hi guys...

How is your Wednesday going? I'm not out at crafty Wednesday today because the little one is having a hard time with some teeth coming through. I'm running on not a lot of sleep so if you could all send me some energy vibes that would be awesome. So I'm not crafting today... BOO! but I thought I would try and make myself feel better by posting crafting on my blog... the next best thing to doing it is sharing it.


So here is my PL spread....

Now let's all cross fingers that the small one with have a nap today so I can post again later!
Happy Wednesday!

A couple of pages to share...

I am loving all the challenges lately... I think I'm addicted...

I did this one for the Scrapfriends sketch challenge, here is the sketch...

and here is what I came up with ....

And for a completely different style I did a super clean page... this one was for Glitter Girl's black and white photo challenge over at 2peas. If you want to join in you can find it here.

I am heading outside now to join the girls in their tea party on an unusually warm October afternoon.
Have a fab day

Project Life day....

Hi Everyone...

Another week of Project Life to share... 

The week I covered here was pretty busy around home as it was school holidays and the children had chicken pox so we only got out I think once.

I just got my photos printed for last week today and I am looking forward to getting these small people into bed so I can get to work! 

Hope you're having a great day

Hayley

You are my fave....

I made this page about my littliest one and her relationship with our cat. So flippin cute, they are.
I love love love Maggie Holmes and the colouring of the papers I thought went well with the photos.
I decided to try the challenge over at 123 Get Scrappy, it was one of those tictactoe ones.

These were the options:

It was kinda easy to pick, I don't really do flowers or pumpkins! I took the chipboard, sequins and stitching row, and here is what I came up with.

Collection Cleanup with Sketchabilities #101

I had a big weekend in the garden, and now I remember why I don't do gardening, cause it's Boring! Yes that's right with a capital. It had to be done though so I didn't get any scrapping time this weekend. Luckily it's my go to thing after the children are in bed so I do have some things to share.

I have been focusing a little on finishing off my old collections, things that I love/loved and I really need to get them used up. I like to do a page with the old stuff and then a page with my newer stuff, that way I stay interested.

So my latest collection cleanup is my Lost and Found by MME. I had very little of this left, actually I'm sure I still have some of the brads somewhere. I loved those brad packets, hardly ever used them, but loved them.

So to get this done I worked with a sketch from sketchabilities. A lot of the time their sketches are a little more arty than I am, but after seeing Annelie's take I thought I would give it a go.

So here is the sketch:

And here is my page:

Supplies: MME Lost and Found 2 - papers and stickers, American Crafts Roxie - stamps, Feathers - cut on Silhouette, Ticket - Pink Paislee.

Thanks for stopping by

Have a fab day
