3 Layouts to Share...

I've had a lovely weekend, Friday night I went cropping at Inspired Crafts as I do with Tina every 1st Friday, Evana came along as well and we all had such a wonderful night. Not that I scrapped much... I started one LO and gave up on that... then managed to finish this one. All I needed was to play with some Dusty Attic to get my groove happening! I love the Picket Fence Borders... and the French Flourishes... wasn't too sure about this Lamp-Post, but now I've used it and got the colours working well I'm in love with that as well.

I've added these oh so cute Prima flowers, what fabulous colours! Popped a Tattered Angels calling card in there... yummy! And you can't have vintage happening without a touch of Chan's Crochet Trims in there!



Saturday I was invited to join Tomorrow's Memories at Scrapbook Central for a Collections Trade Night... the purpose being to have Julie from Collections show us all the tricks of the trade and create a heap of store samples! I had the best fun working as a team to create as many pieces as well could... we made backdrops and heaps of spools, so if you're in Bassendean one day pop on in to TM's and check out our handywork! It was such a pleasure to meet Julie {I swear I'm the only person in Perth who hadn't}. I was also rapt to run into Kath & Jane who I met at the Chookscraps Retreat I went on in March.

So yesterday I was determined to finish 2 LO's I've been 'sitting on' waiting titles. I've had these for ages waiting.


Mmmmmm - French Flourish...


Yeah, not the most ingenious of titles but nothing else was happening... and they are finally finished.

More Dusty Attic deliciousness!


So today is a public holiday here in the west... taking advantage and catching up on more 'relaxing' LOL!!


Take care of you.

I've had a lovely weekend...

Friday night out with Tina at Inspired Crafts, where it is FAR to easy to spend FAR too much, so felt deliciously naughty!

I created this... yes, just this over a 6 hour crop {well there WAS shopping involved of course}, I created it for a challenge at Home & Scrapped to use handmade items, more than 1 photo and some fabric. I'm really happy with this one...


Then I did this one, it was a recipe challenge set by Angie... lots of fun, but I forgot the doodling bit {I think that was part of selective memory!}


And then this one... Bri's BiLingual Challenge {and yes I'm sure my French is wrong LOL}, I melded it with a challenge at Kraft It Up, their Monochromatic Challenge {I used orange, obviously!}


So that's this weekend's scrapping... the creative urge has been satisifed!

Today I mopped {forever mopping}, then cleaned the kitchen, moved some stuff around, cleaned the lounge room... mum & dad came over for a cuppa, then Darren got a bee in his bonnet, love those bees! He strung up a line so we could hang the washing in the sun {we usually just use the drier} and we were able to get on top of a laundry full of washing! I think we need a real washing line after all these years, it's so much quicker and bizarrely fun, that could be the whole novelty factor though! But we've had a lovely day... feel like we have accomplished something!

Take care of you.
