Another Layout and some cards...

Just thought I would show the cards I made for my classes last week, I haven't been showing my cards on here but I will from now on.  I am an independent Stampin Up demonstrator and I hold 2 classes a week here at home. 

This first one was done using a serviette!  It is gorgeous IRL.... so easy to do.

Just noticed the bow on the right one has fallen off!  These little flowers are so easy to make and look gorgeous, you will be seeing some of these on my scrapbooking pages!!  I love them. 

I did this LO for my scrapbooking class last week using Kaisercraft papers.
Me with my dear friend Janet down at Mount Gambier. I wish we lived closer so we could scrap together, I will just have to visit her more often!!

The next layout I did for Out of the Hat, they have great challenges each month, it takes me out of my comfort zone...I have been doing sketches for so long and I thought it was time I did something different.  The 3 challenges for February were to 1.  Misting and Masking  2. use clouds  3. use Tree/s
I"m not real happy with this one, I feel like pulling it apart and doing it again but it's done now and I'm happy I have scrapped another lot of photos.
Cooper sitting on a deck chair at our Xmas get together at Black Point with two hats on and when I went to take his photo he said "HoHoHo Merry Christmas"!  So Cute!

That's all for today....hope you all have a fabulous day!

This weeks sketch..

at Nuts About Sketches is a double and I really enjoyed doing this sketch.  I scrapped the photos of New Year's Eve fireworks that was held at Wallaroo.  I take lots of photos and the grandchildren like to check them out on the computer to see what shapes they can see, the layout is all the things they saw in the photos.

I have used some really old fireworks paper and put kindy glitz all over the fireworks, it looks really good.  I sprayed and splashed glimmer mist all over the cardstock for the background.

Thanks for looking and I hope you have a great day.

This weeks sketch....

...at Nuts about Sketches is a beauty.  These photos are of Emily getting her 13th birthday present from Mum & Dad.  She had a BIG weekend with about 12 or13 girls for a sleep over but Mum & Dad thought they would surprise her with a special gift...a gorgeous silver bracelet.

Have a great day!

Thought I had better....

catch up with my postings!!!!  That was my  new years resolution to keep up with my blog, not doing too good am I?!  Been busy busy looking after my beautiful grandchildren during the school holidays and now school has gone back I'm looking after my adorable, lovable, soooo cute Montana, she is just sooo beautiful!!!!
Here are some more layouts I have been doing for Nuts about Sketches, I love Shawn's sketches!!!
First one is based on this sketch
My crazy 6 Grand-children.....they had all been swimming (the water was freezing) and they were all tired and cold....they were sitting on the edge of the decking getting warm so I went down onto the beach and told them to all smile....well all I got was grumpy faces, no one wanted to smile, so I told them to all make a stupid face, I thought that would make them smile but I get these photos instead!!  They are gorgeous!
The next one was based on this sketch....
Darling Cooper on his 3rd birthday.....the saying was so true on this day, Cooper did spit and dribble on the cake as he was blowing out the candles, so we just removed the decorations with Bart on it and all was OK!  The kids enjoyed it anyway! 


This is sketch 146....
Renae & Jason's 3 children enjoying the beach at Black Point.  These photos have been sitting in an album for a few years so I'm glad I've got around to scrapping them.
Sketch 147....
I love how this layout turned out!  Montana having her first lollipop and boy did she enjoy it!


Have a look at Nuts about Sketches  and try out one of Shawn's sketches, if you do I would love to see it!
If you have got this far, thanks for looking and I'll be back soon.

Hope you have a great day!
