I've spent the weekend away at Scrappy Camp and have done quite a few photos....
I'm uploading quickly into my challenges and showing a few LO's I managed to do.
I have a massive week at work this week ahead of me so will be scarce again... but just lets say exams exams exams...
enough to put nerves into anyone!! I really have to run and not be on here at all!!
SCRAP-IT-LAH
The challenge is to scraplift one of the designers. I loved a layout of Yaties that used a black and white photo, quite a few chipboard frames and the colour! So I picked up on the B&W photo, gorgeous colour and chipboard. The challenge is here

USA - SCRAPJACKED
Yes they are back! And here's a natural shot of Hannah and I've loved scrapping it.
Lots of stitching in this one, some watercolour and nothing like a bit of paint!
Here's the challenge
MY FAVE THINGS-WHOOHOO AND IT WON!!!
We had to pick a fav poem - and this wasnt hard especially if you know the 'Miss Mischievous' Poem by Robert Service about 'Miss Dont-do-this' and 'Miss Dont-do-that'
Pretty much sums up Paige! I've put a copy of the poem underneath this LO - as I'm sure you all know one! Here's the challenge
Miss Don't-do-this and Don't-do-that
has such a sunny smile
You cannot help but chuckle at
Her cuteness and her guile.
Her locks are silken floss of gold,
Her eyes are pansy blue:
Maybe of years to eighty old
The best is two.
Miss Don't-do-this and Don't-do-that
roguishness is fain;
To guard that laughter-loving brat
Is quite a strain;
But when she tires of prank and play
And says good-night,
I'm longing for another day
Of child delight.
Miss Don't-do-this and Don't-do-that
will grow up soon.
I hope she'll never throw her hat
athwart the moon.
Yet I'll be sorrowful indeed,
Remembering a day
Before she learned to humbly heed
The word OBEY.
ROBERT SERVICE
SCRAP THAT POETRY- AND THIS WON TOO!! SO LUCKY!
And of course there is this challenge blog complete dedicated to poetry! I love joining in.
Its about the poem 'First Day of School' by Eddie Garcia. Find it here
This was my first day - and behind that smile for the camera... wasnt all joy!
I'm afraid that I didnt like school - but I smiled for my mum as she took this pic on the back steps of our house before walking down the street to school with my little doll in my hand for comfort.

SCRAPPERS ANONYMOUS
This is a brand now challege blog and their very first challenge is to use templates....
yes...its about using stuff we have forgotten about in our stash! I thought 'I so need this!"
What a great idea.... I've used a journaling one with paint and then some dimentional magic. And while I digging deep - I found other embellies I've used too!
These are my two girls with their cousin Sophie.
And I've quickly uploaded some LO's completed at scrappy camp too

These LO's were all done for a great little challenge place called Challenge Masters
Hannah playing among the leaves when she was only two in the back garden
I painted some leaves and pressed them onto paper I'd painted in a dull gold and cut them out.
Worked a treat! Dont you love that quote!
