well you know how i warned you YESTERDAY that it was a long post.. well this one is way WORSE... superbly long............
to start off i will show you my Bird Is The Word latest challenge word...
AMAZING.. yep i know its just amazing that word...hehehehe...
"Thats Amazing"
i have had that photo for ages ..and well this was just the perfect time to scrap it....{{and dont forget if you are stuck there is a Sketch prompt on the Bird Blog.. i did use it ..well sort of...}

the photo and the title..oh and the banner..cool hey.
the journalling..
and i just thought i'd throw in one of the height...hehehe..

and now onto the BOXX newsletter... well as most of you know i have been doing the Book of You kits.. i chose the kit stuff and then do layouts relating to YOU as the theme... anyho. i must admit right off the get go that i am NOT happy with these layouts.. i'm not sure why..but they just well.... blah me....so here goes.... {{FEEL free to skip to the end but still leave a comment...hehehe}

"Like a Hurricane"
i sent out a thing to the subscribers asking them to let me know what they wanted as themes..one came back as a SONG you like or means something... well this song is something that oneday i will find.... i know..but sometimes i do get lonely.... {{DONT LAUGH BB>>>....}

the photo.. a crappy old one..but still a photo of me.. i loved that journalling that was on the pp that i chose so i JUST had to cut it out and use it....
some stitching and the words to the song.. and YEP the "love" and "hurricane" are from the same sheet of alphas.. i got a white one and then just changed to suit my layouts.. {note below i have used them again in some other colours..so versitile...}
the banner...... and then someone suggested.... "something you love doing"

well spending time with my soul is a big part of what i love doing..even though sometimes i just wonder.. you know the times where you just have enough and have to lock them outside... oh i kid.. no seriously i dont.. LOL...anyho.."Our Time"
i actually thought alittle bit about this one..and took photos on the way so i will load this into the kit group..so a step by step instructions with photos.. i know ADVANCED hey..lol
the letters again..and some paint and some ripped tissue paper.. cool.. the flower .. i like how that turned out..

and the cage and bird was on the tissue i just stuck it to some chipboard first to give it some depth and strenght... and THEN.... another suggestion was a TEENAGE page... so i dug out some photos of my ever present nieces.. Tosharn this time....
"16"
yep... LOTS of random here.. some ripping.. stitching.. doodling.. and paint.. teenage really..hehe

oh yeah and i drew and wrote and coloured randomly through this... {and if you are looking for some of those flower cabochons go HERE.. my shop..PLEASE...lol...}

another couple of flowers..the bottom one i made from the pink paislee artisan tape.. love that one and will definately try it again...and YEP i just added the other numbers randomly coz well it was a WHOLE lot of random for this one... so have you had enough .. i probably think so.. but tomorrow is tuesday and then Wednesday ..getting photos printed...and then its thurday.. and then FRIDAY and that will lead me right to the Scrapbooking Expo.. at south bank..yep i am goin on the Saturday and SUnday..so be there or be square... seriously..
