Our Little Yellow Bird

Here is my take on whitewith1 this month - the criteria being 

WHITE + LEMON + 3 PHOTOS

Although this photo of our baby Jade is not clear, it is a lovely photo in its own right.  Jade loved the colour yellow from such a young age & when this gorgeous little sundress was given to her, she could not stop wearing it!  She still at aged 29 still loves yellow, such a sunny & happy colour.  We have called her our little yellow bird for years, so I really thought that I had to participate in this challenge.  

I have used white Bazzill, BG Piccadilly range, Dew Drop ink & SU stamp, assorted flowers I have been given, Margs Bits & Pieces flower, Auhentique alphas, Sassafras Lass alphas, KC pearls, Zig writer & KC rubon, plus a lemon Copic marker for some doodling!

Maybe you can join into this fab challenge too?

Cheers,

You are so Fabulous!

How blessed am I with this gorgeous & charming lass as one of my grand daughters!  this is Tashi smiling along for the camera last Friday night...

This page is for White with 1& the criteria for January is - white, lime & buttons...so enjoyed playing with this LO & all my bits & bobs!

I used Marg's Bits & Pieces banner, Tattered Inspirations seam binding, Echo Park paper & stickers, page pebbles, Heidi Swapp stamps, inks, glimmermist, buttons & butterflies, brads, plus machine stitching without any cotton, to get a bit of a 'grungy' feel to my cardstock too.

Happy day,

Santa baby...

And here is little Harry way back at Christmas 2006, with Norn on Christmas Day, in our home (now Harry's home!)

And this is my page for White with 1 this month & criteria being....

White

Christmas Themed

Christmas photo

My inspiration was from Garland's blouse, the pink/red flowers & Harry's little Santa hat. And then adding the fabulous Bo Bunny 'Back to Basics' papers I achieved that white/pink/red page that I was aiming for. These are not Christmas papers, but I thought them wonderful!

I hope you are enjoying the lead up to Christmas & not stressing too much.

I have been in the kitchen today & I am in the process of making Corn Relish.  In the fridge & setting, is Apricot & Sultana Balls, Fudge with Cranberries & Fundge with Nuts, Bark, & Rocky Road.

I think it is time for a rest!!

The fabulous & amazing thing with scrapping is how some LO's just 'fall into place' & sometimes from something quite insignificant. 

I saw the February challenge at 'White with 1' & knew what photo I had to scrap with the criteria this month.  White + brown + vintage .  Then when I was ready to work on my page I picked up my new Crate Paper Restoration Collection chipboard pieces, & there was a gorgeous little number 27!    I couldn't believe it......this is my dear mum's house number where she grew up.  And so it just grew from there.

Here is a close-up of some detail taken while I was still adding my extra bits of ephemera. I used an original photo of my mum taken in 1937, as it has been scanned & I would prefer it on a page than sitting in my photo box.

This is my lovely big boy cat Bobby helping me take some photos...

Take care lovely gals,

White with 1 blogspot.....

Well decided I would have a go at this months challenge over at White with 1, which has just begun setting challenges again....I have to say that this blog site was the very first one that I ever saw, & I really like feeling confident enough to have a whirl now.

The challenge is to use white of course, with yellow this month....

 I had fun with yellow paint over a doily mask, then using ribbon & lace & Marg's Bits & Pieces yo-yo flower - gorgeous isn't it, Tattered Inspirations pin, BG paper, alphas & chippies, journalling card & my faithful Zig writer.
