Lily as a new pet!

Here is a page I completed a long time ago. It was the first page map (sketch) I ever tried. Now I love them. Am off to work today. Looking forward to it, as it will be a nice break from sick kids! Here's hoping this pic is the right way up, and you don't have to turn your head to view it.

Oh shit - I really have to work this out - why blogspot rotates everything!

No picture tonight...

Have a few pics uploaded of some recent layouts, but I was very brave and submitted them to the Up2scrap magazine for an upcoming theme. 5 of them have made the shortlist, so I am not allowed to publish them in any way including on a personal blog, until they have made their final decisions in March. Kate is unwell today - infected throat and ears, so best I get to bed incase it is a night of no sleep like last!

First Steps

I completed this a few nights ago - the challenge was to use only 5 things from a given list, and photos, cardstock, and patterned paper counted. The other two things I used were rub-ons and rhinestones (bling). I found it very difficult as I love embellishments. This is Kate - learning to walk the day before her first birthday. Seems like soooo long ago!

Once again I'm sorry as the image is on its side - it was the correct way up, but seems the blogger site rotates everything to be landscape, and this image was photgraphed in portrait or vise versa - I haven't quite worked it out!!!

Photo Blocks

Here are some photo blocks I made for a friend of her cute wee girl. Usually I do the photo's in black and white, and I think it is better than colour. Have to say they are not my best!

Up2scrap

I have to share with you all a proud mummy moment. Lucy is on the cover of the latest Up2scrap magazine. Not my work, just supplied the pic but very cute all the same.

Lily's New Do - and my new blog!

Originally I had a post before Angelic, but as I'm technology challenged I must have done something wrong as it hasn't shown up. I guess it is floating in cyber space somewhere. Anyway, it basically said welcome to my blog - a place where I will share the creative things I have been up to.

It also had this layout of Lily that I created using a sketch from http://www.scrapbookdreams.co.nz/ I bet Lily is enjoying the freedom of having less wool to carry around.

Unfortunately this is on its side, and no matter how much of the blogger help site I read, I cannot figure out how to rotate it. The original image was not like this! Told you I was technology challenged.

Angelic

Here is a page I scrapped of Lucy before she was two. The skirt she is wearing was a favourite, and Gran (Great) bought her the matching one for her teddy!
