November ScrapBursts..


Over at Scrapville, Janet has been running 4 ScrapBursts & here is the criteria

NOVEMBER SCRAPBURSTS
#1 - METALS
This layout is to incorporate Metals - this can be embellishments, metal foil, charms - as long as there is a healthly balance on the page you'll be ok.

#2 - STITCHING
Ah Ha - and it can be by hand or machine, as long as we have at least 25% of stitching used on your layout, which is more than just the border girls, so get creative!

#3 - NUMBERS
Ok, following the list you will need to have ALL of the following incorporated into your layout:
1 x bling shape/pattern/word
2 x photos 
3 x frames
4 x patterned papers
5 x brads
    #4 - EMBOSSED PAPER
    This layout is to incorporate Embossed Papers, whether you add them or emboss your own.  Your layout must include at least 1/3 ofEMBOSSED paper/s.


    So I played around with the metals I had plus some silvery & shiny bits & bobs & came up with my LO titled Pizzazz & Fun.

    For my stitching LO I choose these wonderful photos of young Ben..ahhh



    Next it was numbers...and I choose to scrap Tashi graduating from Year 12...The Graduate...



    And the last Burst - embossing.  I choose this wonderful photo of Jade's Pete, with his brother & dear mum....top photo hey!!




    I hope you are happily scrapping too!

    Nanny Love at Scrap Jacked


    I decided to join in at Scrap Jacked again this month& so used Jeanenne's fabulous LO titled 'My Mowing Hat' as my inspiration.  I have used similar colours & her sketch to create a page about Debbie & Harry at a fab picnic recently.  What a gorgeous photo that Jadie took. I love it! 

    What a gorgeous array of pages to inspire you there...why not pop over & take a look?

    Cheers,

    Warm & snuggy with Kraft it UP


    I believe that I look blissful in this photo..and I was.  My little Benni was so wonderful (& still is, of course 30 years down the track) & so I deceided to use this photo for my LO for KIU this month.  The criteria is 'journaling' something that I am finding easier & easier to do as I go along. And here is a closeup with my journaling. I just love Kraft & adore textures with it, so misted & doodled & affixed bits & bobs, & enjoyed the whole process.

    Thank you for taking a peek.

    Long time..no blogging


    I have been on a marvellous retreat with the lovely ScrapBoutique gals the weekend before last - here I am with the amazing Leanne. What a top weekend!

    And then a trip up to Brissie to see my grand daughter Tashi's Year 12 Graduation, & then see her all dressed up for her Formal as well.  Spent some lovely time with Jadie & her Pete & all the Willis clan too.

    Then on Sunday night - The Moody Blues in concert!

    So got to get into the scrapping again soon...or I will be left behind!!

    I will also catch up on my blog reading too...just been out of time lately!
