Cute Camel.?.

This one is a lo for our local group where it was a sketch challenge and apparently my original looked nothing like the sketch {and i have to admit it really didnt lol} and for this month 2 of the challenges was to redo 2 previous challenges.. so i did this one.. for reference this is the first attempt..

the end result is ok.. but kind of funny coz i had to try and make the pages flow because looking at the original sketch it just didnt feel right.. so thats why i have created the border around the outside...
CUte Camel...?..

yep i know.. dont you just love old photos..
love the height here..and the random of the doiley that i sprayed with 3 different glimmers.. not that you can really tell.. anyho.


cool photos.. actually they are kind of funny.. and love how this whole block turned out..

the journalling..
i know hard to read so it says....who.. this is me. photo 1982 in preschool i was always pretty much a tom boy, we never had pretty dresses or many dolls, just overalls and our bikes, we spent hours outside which was just where i liked it, even now i still haven't quite found that girly girl me....
{ps.. i think we were always outside so that mum could keep the house clean and werent under her feet.. she really does love us..just liked us to play OUTSIDE..LOL}
i also had another go at bunting...you know those strings of flag thingysand when i was doing this i just kept thinking BOY that is SO different from the last page.. i dont have a style..unless you include.. "whatever comes into my head style" an actual style.. but i love this page so thanks Sarah for the challenge... woot woot..
oh and another photo that i thought you might get a laugh out of...... i KNOW how cool.... cloud PJ.s... {oh yeah.. thats me trying to do a selfy that didnt look like total crap.. }..LOL>. and super huge ZITCHES...
thanks for your love...
thanks for the super love.. and if you think you can name my style please share...

PS... oh oh i have had a lo accepted by SC.. so i know it wont be published for a while {issue 87} but atleast i know when .. and yippee............

Serenity..

this weeks challenge at the boxx was by the amazing Danielle Q.. prompts.. painted altered background. and a transparency

although i didnt use alot of paint i did need it to change the background.. it was too white.. so added some blue..

the journalling

simple title.. Serenity... its well her name after all..

my use of the transparencys..

a flower created by me from paper doily sprayed with 2 glimmers and a Leeann Pearce button and doiley.. {reckon it came up nicely}


Isn't it funny that for some reason deep within your head when you are doing another super scrappers challenge you seem to channel that scrapper.. i can see so much Danielle in here yet a heap of me as well.. anyone else do that or am i just alittle wierd..oh hang on dont answer that i think i already know...
Anyho.. Ivy is in bed havin a sleep and Tarj is watching Charlie and Lola,, ps i love charlie and lola, so i think this calls for me to sneak into my room for a minute for alittle rest as well.. so i will see you all later.. thanks for stopping by and havin a little look see..

On Ya Bike...

okay so this is a little different for me..notice that the highest thing on this page is the chippy.. yep not one little piece of foam mount..unusual hey...
and it was also time to do a page or two on Tarj..{i can only show this one at the moment though}
found this funky Hambly screen transparency at a LSS that i hardly go to .. {and yes OMG funky stuff}

needed journalling and just wasnt sure where.. happy with my end choice..

my little man is always off in his own world even when riding his bike.

he is riding off into the sunset..LOL.. actually Julie Winks often has photos going off of the page so thanks Julie.. stole that idea..ZITCHES..

oh and couldnt resist.. a sneaky of my next Journal It CT layout..

got some The Chip Chop Shop from Leeann , i have been wanting them for ages but when i saw one IRL on a lo at the expo i KNEW i had to order it... so the cloud is hers and the rest is mine... {coming soon}... well maybe...

anyho i hope everyone is fantastic and i am really hoping to do another page tonight.. oh and thanks to those who told me to submit Your EYES had an email asking if it was still avaliable for publication..HELL YES>....
