Seems A Long Time

Feel like I haven't said anything on here for quite a while. I have been scrapping a lot but also been having a bit of a lull. Last Saturday I was meant to meet up with some scrapping friends but I got lost getting there and I didn't make it. I was so upset with myself. I got back home had a few glasses of red and went to bed. I could of been more positive and participated in a cybercrop but no. Not me.

I found out today I didn't make it though the last challenge in Embellished idol. I didn't expect to feel so bummed because I didn't think I would even make it through the first round. Overall it has been a great experience. Also this is the last week of the Scrapworld challenge. I think I will settle down with all this challenge stuff because it isn't doing my confidence any good really. But I love a challenge though.


Here is my last embellished challenge.



Here is my last 2Scrapworld Challenges I have enjoyed these too and scrapworld have more challenges coming up :)




I have also been doing challenges in 1,2,3 CyberCrop. I have really enjoyed these and they come up once a month and there are prizes to win.

Here are some layouts.




Thought I would add something funny. Don't leave a 2 year old girl by herself in the bath room for a second.



What an innocent face.

Some more layouts

I have been doing heaps of challenges. I am waiting to see if I have got through to the next round of Embellished idol. don't mind really. I'm amazed I have gone this far.

I have been doing the 1,2,3, Cybercrop. Here are some of my layouts.







The Forever Always layout means so much to me. The picture is of when Ella had just been born. she was soon taken to the ICU because she couldn't eat or breath properly. I was told during the night. It was really frightening and surreal at the time. I'm so blessed to have her here with me now.

Can't think of a good title today.

I finished my next Embellished Idol today. the challenge was to use tags. I am so glad I was given some in a Embellishment swap from of Essential Baby girls. Thank you so much :)

Here is my layout.



Well thats all for the moment.

I decided to do embellished idol at the last minute.
The first week was to do a sketch. I was really amazed at all the comments I received. I really enjoyed doing the layouts. I have loved these photos for ages and I finally scrapped them.
Here is my layout.




At scrap world the challenge was to do a certain scraplift. I chose to do Emily.
Here it is



Ethan is really growing up and it really shows in the above photos. He is going to be so handsome when he grows up.

Getting slack already!

I have had quite a busy week and I have done quite a bit of scrapping but I haven't finished all I wanted to do.

I have involved myself in quite a few challenges.

Here is my layout for Scrap Worlds Back to Reality. Week 4.

We had to use 6 different products/techniques in our layouts. I used paint, bling, chipboard, flower, patterned paper and an overlay.
The layout is of an elephant in Melbourne zoo. I love them. The name of one of the elephants is Num-Oi I'm not sure if I have the right one though.



I also did some layouts for 3 Angels Scrapping.

The layout had to have purple.



The next was from Cat and the layout had to be minimalist.



Another one.



Another challenge was from Bons Scraps. The criteria was to have something new, a black background, and felt. There had to be two colors I think from Charms groovy t-shirt :)



I'll leave you with a funny photo of my daughter. Apparently she loves Lamb Shanks.
