SFS Challenges

Wow time to blog!! 
Things seem to be a bit hectic lately, but I managed to scrap a bit last weekend and this is what I managed to create. 
I shouldn't complain too much though I did manage to spend a weekend away at the Scrapbooking From Scratch Retreat at the end of April. It was a wonderful weekend away and got me back in the mood to scrap. I haven't managed to photograph my layouts from the retreat yet, but will share eventually!!
So back to my share...they are both  for monthly challenges at SFS.

Charms Sketch Challenge:




And Donna's Quote Challenge:

OUT FOR PUBLICATION!!!


So pop over to the forum and join in the fun :)

Wet Weather Fun

One of my favourite things to do when its raining is to scrap!!
I set my kids up with their own crafty goodies, except Sam he is more of a gamer (think wii, ipod, ds etc etc), and that's how our day goes!!
So last weekend with all the rain, this is what I managed to get done:

Firstly the Savvy Sketch with a twist:



Next up the Sketch challenge at Scrapbooking from Scratch:


And the SFS Quote challenge:



And last is a page of me.... I know it's very rare that I scrap myself and to be honest I don't particularly like the photo but its done now and I am actually loving the page (can I say that without sounding, um, well loving myself???)
Its for the White with One Challenge this month: White + Pink + Hearts:

out for publication :)

PS All the photos I used are from our family photo shoot with the fabulous Jen Hall @Jenerations Photography xxx

Challenges

Hi :)

With this wet weather I actually spent some time scrapping. And I actually finished a few pages, without sitting there paper shuffling for too long lol

So here they are:
This first one is the sketch challenge over at Scrapbooking from Scratch. I think I may have lost the sketch a little along the way, but I'm sure you can still see traces there!!





This next one is for Scrapbooking from Scratch as well, it's the quote Challenge for January.




And this one is the January Sketch over at Annas Craft Cupboard. I used the Studio Calico Darling Dear Kit over at SFS.





And here is another couple of layouts using the same kit:

Starting with some sketches

Oh my, Oh me, it has been a while between pages!!
I guess I just haven't been "feeling it" , but decided enough was enough, I was just going to sit and start sticking things down and go with it.
To get me started I used the Scrapbook Savvy January sketch:







out for publication:)





Close ups




And then the 1st January Sketch over at Stuck Sketches:

Scrap the Girls

Hi all :)

Last night I managed to complete the Scrap the Girls September challenge, had to use Action Photos this month. 
I have had these photos of Lily for nearly 12 months and can't believe how long its taken me to scrap them! She was so happy on this day, finally being brave enough to have a go on the motor bike out at Aunty Bec's place. She went really well, except for one close call, but she knew what she had done wrong and was fine after that.





And now a page of my youngest, Miss Grace:




This page is for the September Quote Challenge at Scrapbook Savvy. Grace was so desperate to shoot goals with Lily, but couldn't quite get them in, so in came Dad to the rescue!
TFL and thanks for your gorgeous comments xx
