This week's LO for Creative Craft World Scrap Map challenge

Here is this week's entry for the Scrap Map Saturday challenge over at Creative Craft World. This week we were asked to do a layout that is "pink and girlie" !!

This is a picture of me at a Whitehouse Inn staff party - I don't have many girlie pictures with 3 boys !!

Creative Craft World LO challenge for 5-31st March

This is my entry for the Creative Craft World Saturday challenge for 5th - 31st March. For the challenge we were asked to use "circles".

The title of my LO is "My Star-bucks"! and for the circles I used paper from Flair Designs and cut them out with my NEW cuttlebug (hehe!). I knew this picture would come in handy one day! 

Double chocolaty chip Frappuccino with whipped cream - yummeee :)

This week's LO for Creative Craft World Scrap Map challenge

Hello everyone - here is my LO for the Saturday Scrap Map challenge over on Creative Craft World. This week we were asked to create a LO incorporating "the seasons" (one or all!). As you can see I have gone for Spring but with a bit or irony :)

On my recent visit to Kansas we had had some really warm days (Will was wearing shorts though I didn't think it was THAT warm!!) then I woke up on my last morning to find it had snowed overnight. By the time I had showered and got dressed it had started to melt.. note to self - next time get the photos before you shower. Lol :)

 

It's been a busy week this week with 2 scrapping classes - club night at Scrapangels (LO below)

This is a picture of my beautiful mum..the original photo is only 2 1/4 " x 2 1/4" but the local Kodak shop did a great job of scanning it and enlarging it. The quality is not great but it's good enough. As usual there is a tag hiding in there for my journalling when I get around to writing something.



And our monthly "album through the year" class which, of course, this month was March. I haven't any photos yet because it's a work in progress!!

But these were January's layouts - we are doing a double page for each month - this beach is about 200 yards from my house (unfortunatley I cannot see it from the house but  I can often hear the sea and can certainly hear the seagulls)

But as I have finished my final assessment for EYPS (Early years Professional Status) which has taken up quite a large chunk of my time over the last 18 months I decided I could fit some scrapping in....so I did!!  As my boys would say "mum's been scrapbooking in the lobby!!" ..long story :)  haha

LO for Creative Craft World - scrap map saturday 19-31 March

Here is my entry for this week's challenge. We were asked to use a landscape photo in our LO.
This is a photo of Watson Park in Lawrence, Kansas taken 2 weeks ago. I took the photo on my phone as it has a landscape function whereas my camera does not - hence the photo quality is not the best!!

A little bit of hidden journalling expaining the title!

LO created at "Vintage" class

This LO is of me and my little brother.. I think I was about 17/18 and he must have been 14/15!!

This was a vintage LO class by Kerry Grant at ScrapAngels in Cornwall. 

The paper used is Making Memories Paper Reverie collection and we made our own black satin flowers X X

More scapbook pages

This is a gorgeous pic I found of my mum and dad taken at a Masonic Ladies night about 1961!
It was just so perfect for this paper (Papermania ) which is sooo gorgeous by itself all I had to do was add the embellishments (lots of ribbon and sparkly bits!)

And this is my 3 boys with the mega snow man they built last year in their dad's backyard in Kansas. (Can you see the beer bottle!!! :-)  )
Paper is Fancy Pants Hot Chocolate collection
