Above is my last minute entry for the Scrapfriends October sketch challenge, shown above.. I have been meaning to try this one all month but just struggled with finding the right photos. Eventually I just made a layout and added photos afterwards. They show my little piggy, Oliver, devouring his breakfast, leaving smears all over his face and arms before licking them clean.....

Scrap the boys October challenge - Outdoor fun


This layout is my attempt at the Scrap the boys October challenge. The requirements are to use the traditional boy colours - blue and green. It took me a long time to get started, and choose a photo but this is the finished result. I chose a photo of my sons first ever time on skis in Falls creek, Victoria.

Life paper scrapbook September colour challenge - Away we go


This is my entry for the Life Paper Scrapbook September colour challenge - shown above. The colour scheme is one Im not used to working with but I took the opportunity to scrap these photos I have had laying around for some time, which show my first ever weekend away from my children, a snow trip to a friends 'shack' for my birthday. As the photos weren't very exciting in themselves it was good to give them some meaning on a double page layout explaining the trip.

White with one October challenge - Uniquely you


Its been a long time since I scrapped last! After moving back home (interstate) Im finally getting settled and back into it again.... I decided to enter my first challenge in months - White with one. This months challenge is to use only white with "watermelon" - and a little black is allowed. After going through both mine and my friends stash for watermelon coloured papers this is what I came up with! I used a picture of my daughter ice skating as it was one of very few that went with the colour scheme and the title (by A2Z scraplets).
