Let's Get Shabby Challenge #30

Let's Get Shabby's #30 is up and its all about a List!

So check here what the list consists of and the fabulous prize!!!

Here's my DT sample
It's the box. I made the little star album for Scrap Therapy and it needed a little box to go in.

My four items from the list are

Bells

Tree

Stars

Ivy leaves

Here's what the box originally looked like

This is the first coat of paint...

And after the 2nd coat and some decoration(the fun part!!)

here's how it turned out!

What a difference that made!

 Its been so busy getting scrappy committments done on time, not that I mind because I love creating everyone of them  - its just a pain when work gets in the way LOL!

LESSology - Challenge # 6 Hanging Mobiles

Your challenge is to create your own Hanging Mobile

Here's what I came up with.

It was total joy putting this together and who would have thought that doilies were so versatile!

The awesome sponsor for this challenge is Nikki Sivils. The winner gets the fabulous Gingerbread Lane kit! :)

Go see how I made this mobile here

And see the other designers gorgeous creations too!

December Daily

If you have been to Scrap Therapy to see the thread we have going over there at the moment, please do as theres lots of discussion and pics of Dec Dailys being constructed.  I've got mine completed now all ready for December 1st~!  I cant wait to start and to share the completed one here (big smile)

Here's a sneaky peeky:

Also over at Scrap Therapy we have Christmas projects on the go and hopefully inspire some organisation before December hits with all the festive flurry (another big smile)

I have had this OTP Kaiser Christmas Tree for so long, and it was about time to put it together!

Just leaving you with these beautiful little roses in my garden at the moment.

They look such a picture!

December Daily

I've started mine!

Here's the covers:

I've used a fabulous Fancy Pants Transparency

And the covers from Teresa Collins Noel Kit (and a few bits of the papers)

plus glued Kraft over the very bold red and white print covers!

But mostly I'm using in the Dec Daily,

Simple Stories Christmas Kit

(please excuse my very unavoidable reflection in the overlay)

It will be finished all ready to go by December 1st, so I wont be uploading how I put the album together here on the blog - but you can see that part at:

SCRAP THERAPY

This link will take you to the beginning of the thread

where we are all sharing getting a December Daily together!

so far I've got pages Dec 1st - 14th uploaded there.
I've also put up pics of my 2010 December Daily there, and a the cover plus a couple of my pages of my 2009 one too.

Once my December Daily is properly completed with pics and journaling and final embellishments then I'll upload it here! (big smile)!

This will be my third one and I LOVE doing it!

I've Got a Little Note Above My Computer....

And that little note right at my eyeline says...

"Christmas doesn't have to be stressful'

And I'm making that my mantra this year and for once

be organised  at least plan/think about it as early as beginning of November!

I've got my December Daily on the go with my cover in bits being organsed on my scrapdesk

And I've started a thread over at Scrap Therapy to help us all get on our way with this fabby little project hoping we'll spur each other on (big smile)
