Tae Kwon Do

Another layout I did back in November while scrapping with friends.  For this layout I had to step out of my comfort zone to use a colour I don't usually use - yellow.  It is not my favourite so I rarely use it on layouts, but with all those yellow mats and the yellow wall in the photos I didn't really have much of a choice!  I chose to use mainly black and white with touches of yellow and ended up pleased with the way it turned out. 

Gingerbread House

This is a double layout I did back in November at a scrapbooking weekend away with friends.  I decided to use a fairly clean style for this one but couldn't resist stamping the flourishes in the corners :)  I also couldn't resist making the cute cork gingerbread man to finish it off!

This layout is for Amy's album and of course I also had to make another layout the same for Laura's album!

We had such fun making this gingerbread house for Xmas - hard to believe it's such a long time ago.

Get Picky Challenge #15 - New Year

Get Picky's New Year challenge is to think about what we might resolve to do in the New Year and I thought that doing a layout on my scrapbooking resolutions for 2012 would be a great start to the year and a way to motivate myself to carry them out, so here it is!

Update

It's been ages since I last blogged due to moving house (3 times as we moved to Mum's, house sat for a month and then back to Mum's until our new house is ready!) and have had internet connection problems.  With all the moving around I haven't really had much time to scrapbook except when I went away with some friends for a weekend of scrapbooking at the end of November - I will post some of my layouts from the weekend soon.
 
I did make a quick card for my mother-in-law's birthday in November using some new paper lace and a foiled calendar from Merci and some gorgeous butterfly Mariposa paper by DCWV.

Can't get the photo to turn around but you get the idea!

Xmas Kaszazz challenge

Kaszazz challenge for the team training day on Sunday had a Xmas theme so I quickly did this page for Amy's album from Xmas a couple of years ago.

L Plates

It's been a while since I posted as it's been a busy time for me - first a fantastic week in Sydney singing with friends with Sing Australia (taking lots of photos so plenty to scrapbook about later!) then back home packing to move and sick with a horrible cold :-(

Not much time to scrapbook so here is a layout I did a few weeks ago just before I started this blog - my 'baby' has her L plates now!!!  Hard to believe she is already 16 and learning to drive - where has the time gone???

Me&My Big Ideas paper, stamped cardstock for background using Kaisercraft stamp, & Kaisercraft I Am stamp

Get Picky August Challenge #11

Loved the sketch for this month's Get Picky challenge and did a layout of Laura and her friend Lily using some new stamps, glimmer mist and butterfly masks.
