I've been doing a lovely lot of not much for the last week!!

just back to one job now & i am loving it...

the house got a much needed clean up & clean out!

lots of bits to finish now - frames to hang, clocks to hang & walls to paint & then i will be really happy.


sicknesses almost all gone & nearly back to normal!!


Miss T got her drivers licence...OMG...i freak her out she tells me as she was reduced to tears this morning after driving to school -darling A choose to ride his bike :0) - thank goodness another pro lesson this afternoon for her & i think might need a driving training lesson too or some drugs to calm my nerves...



scrappin..i've only done a few - too busy cleaning the house you see - no kidding!!!



so here they are...

some Scrapz.Biz challs

sketch challenge LO that i really am not the impressed by...



couldn't work out the colours right & didn't have the pp i imagined i needed???!!! the pp matt under the photo is wrong but gave up in frustration...oh well scrapped a holiday pic all the same!!



Scrap it Blind...i adore these challs...


had to use a photo that didn't turn out how you would have liked...well the look on my face says it all really....ugh - HORRIBLE!! but ignore my ugly looking face & look at the background of the pic..gorgeous across the bay to San Francisco!! BEAUTIFUL...

White with 1...

June WW1

white + red + circles/polkas dots

is been a while since i did a WW1 chall but the criteria matched perfectly with our Disney pics!! As i was taking these photos S whispered in my ear

'you know they are only people dressed up don't you???!!'

he is such a bugger!! so I had to use that as my journalling :0)

So i had to give it a go...I didn't have any red pp or CS so I had a scrounge & found some plain red tissue paper (the scallops), red spot tissue paper butterflies, red/white spot ribbon, red felt heart, red taffeta material for lollipop flower!! Its amazing what you find when you actually LOOK :0)

some challenges...



that I actually finished last night!!

A pic i took from our room in SanFran..i set the camera up on the ledge & slowed the shutter speed & got a pretty cool pic!!


The chall was to use a body part in the title of your LO! A cute pic of Miss T looking at the 'stars' hand prints on Hollywood Boulevard, this LO was for a colour chall using the pinkish colour-aqua & lime green.
& i found a very old but very cute pic of Miss T & A!! adorable!!
