Some recent scrapping

I visited the lovely Donna over at Mystical Scrapbooks this month and joined in with their August Cyber Crop.  This month the theme was "Book Lover" ...here are my 3 entries.

I have also been joining in with their Monthly Challenges for August...have completed 2 so far.

Bel's Birthday Challenge

Donna's Inspiration Challenge

Working on the last one, hope to finish it tomorrow.


Well I really should get to bed...sitting up late tonight watching the F1 Grand Prix.

Another day of card making

The theme today at my LSS was black & white...love these very elegant cards.
Had so much fun making them and chatting with the ladies :)

We had the use of some Nestabilities dies and some Martha Stewart round-the-corner punches!

Thanks for dropping in.

Another Card Set

Some more cards I have made today :)  I just love the tones of brown/aqua/rose. My LSS is making a kit available each month and this is the one for August.

 It's a bit hard to see in the photo, but the card front right has the butterflies cut out from the cardstock as a window to see through and then the others are on layered on top.

Thank you all once again for stopping by and I really do appreciate the lovely comments.

Card Crop Day

My LSS was running a card making crop day on Saturday, so my friend and I went along.  We had a wonderful day.  Made these 5 cards using Kaiser's new Timeless collection 6x6 pack and their Sparklets which are just gorgeous!

They are having another card crop day in a fortnight so we have signed up to go again :)

Thanks again everyone for your lovely comments :)

Have a nice day x

Location Location Week 2

ScrapzBiz sent us into our wardrobe this week.  I decided to take a different tack and used the photo I had of my suitcase all packed and ready to when we went overseas late 2009.  Scrapped it as my 'mobile wardrobe' for the next 2 months.
Here is my page:

Looking forward to tomorrow to see where the Scrapz girls are sending us for week 3.

Thanks for stopping by :)

This weeks Scrap It Blind challenge

over at ScrapBiz was set by Judith...love doing these :)
Judith gave us a free choice of theme this week so I went with an old photo of Ross helping Dad to clean heaps of 2nd hand cement blocks to build a retaining wall in our backyard.  Ross was quite apt at using a hammer and bolster too! The young boys from next door always loved to come over to help.

Thanks for stopping by and thank you for the lovely comments...they really do make  my day :)

Christmas Cards

I have started early with my Christmas cards for this year!
My LSS had some lovely pp that was just perfect for cards so I got to it and made this set and all from just 1 sheet.  Still have heaps left for some more.
