Face of Felt

Kate loves to use felt tips - lucky for me I buy washable ones, because she has a bad habit of drawing on anything but paper. One day I walked into the lounge to find her standing on the table having drawn all over the picture and frame that hangs above it. This day she told me "butterfly" - I think that is what she was decorating herself as! Kaiser craft papers, gold brads, buttons, gold cord, large chipboard letter.

Bathing Beauty

I'm really struggling to get motivated to scrap the girls baby photos, and until I do I can't really put albums together as I want them in sequential order. This is one of the few baby pages I have done - Daddy learning how to bath new born Lucy.

Dawson Falls

Back at the beginning of June we had some decent snow falls. This layout features some pics of our visit to the snow. Lucy had a blast - haven't seen her sooo giggly and excited in a long time. She got right in to throwing snow balls, and got me a good one! Kate wasn't so sure, and went really pale with the cold. The photo of this layout isn't great sorry. Used felt for the first time - the snow flakes.

Papers are Kaiser Craft. Wooden words which I inked, and lots of bling!

Beach Bums - Onemana

It has been a long time since I posted on my blog, so I have a few to share today. This first layout has photos from our holiday in Whangamata. We went to a cute wee bay (Onemana) fishing one day. The wind was bitterly cold, no sun to speak off, the waves rough, but Kate was into being nude, and so decided to once again strip off. The papers are "My minds eye" - flowers, and rub-ons also.

Poppet and Lucy

Unusual colours!!! Not sure if it works, but done now. Poppet is one of very few jersey cows in our herd, and a real pet. Loves a good scratch, and cuddle.

Up2scrap

Well, I have had a fantastic day out scrapbooking - kid free!!! Loved every minute of it, but because I'm such a slow scrapper I only completed one double page over an entire day. Came home to an email from Up2scrap magazine wanting one of my layouts by next week for their magazine, but previously they had discarded it, so I showed it on my blog. It was titled Rainbow Lamb - some may remember seeing it?

Lucy is 4 today!!! Where has the time gone? Had afternoon tea for her with family and friends. Spent last night making her birthday cake and wrapping presents. Barbie dolls were right up there on her list of "wants" and she also wanted a barbie cake, so this is what I made. Hope to get some scrapbooking done later in the week, so check back for layouts.
