Lot's to share.

Been scrapping up a little storm lately and am loving it.
I've got a few to share, some for challenges and others I did at the cropathon the other week.

My 10 year old Bailey did this lo about his love for the food in Thailand. A bit cute hey!

 This one was for this months STG you had to use black white and one other colour.

 Loving playing around with my paints and mists with a straw. Also messing around with my stamps a bit more lately. Love these Sass Lass arrow stamps.

 This one is for this months 123 the challenge is the word My, purple and chevron. Loved this challenge. 

I played around with my chevron punch and the sewing machine for this one. 

 This one is for KIU's July challenge about future dreams and bucket lists. Had fun with this one. Photos are of rollerball, one ticked off the list and a few suggestions of what I might do next.

June 123 layout.

So just returned from a great day at a 12 hour crop for Oara. Raising money to support children born unable to swallow. It was a fun day with lots of challenges, raffles and lots of chatting. I only did 4 layouts, but that's cool. This one was a last minute one for the June 123 challenge. You had to use blue, washi tape and the word change. I used my chevron punch with the tape, love how it turned out.

Also worked out why my blog wasn't set up for comments. All fixed up now.

Retreat layouts

Had a great weekend with Jodie at a retreat in Lancefield. A few drinks, great company. Lot's of inspiration and LOTS of laughs.

Was pretty happy with my 13 layouts. 

Anyway here they are.

 This one was for a sketch challenge.

 I used this layout for a paint and mist challenge. It was going to be for the easter themed May Kraft it up but I didn't get it done in time.

 This was my first layout for the WW1 june but didn't like it. Second one turned out heaps better.

white with 1 June

So just a quick one to share my WW1 june layout.

** JUNE'S WW1 CHALLENGE **

WHITE + PALE BLUE + FLAGS

* You have until 11.59pm June 30th to link your entries to this post.

I found this one to be a bit of a challenge at first but really enjoyed it in the end. The flags kinda threw me. Again it took me two turns before I was happy with my layout. The first one just didn't work. 

Heres my ct sample

Be back soon I've got a heap of layouts to share.

Scrap the boys

Just a quick layout share. This one is for the May STB's challenge .
You had to use a photo of your boy or boys getting dirty and your photo had to inspire your layout in some way.
So I have used a photo of Declan eating an icy pole. I have taken inspiration from the dripping icy pole and the colour.

Retreat layouts.

So I was lucky enough to go an amazing retreat recently. It was organised by Malinda Gardner and it was a great weekend. Jodie and I bunked together and as usual that made for a few laughs including a few too many cowboys and lots of fun. Got to meet a heap of lovely ladies and catch up with some I hadn't seen in ages.

I did 14 layouts, which was all right. I wasn't really organised, since we had just got home from Thailand and it took me a bit to get started.

The best bit is Jodie and I are off on another one in a few weeks. YAY!

Anyway here's my layouts that I haven't already shared. Coz they were CT or challenge layouts.

This was a layout based on a sketch for a challenge.

 This was a layout for a recipe challenge set by Mal. Loved this one. 

Absolutely love this new flames template. It is awesome. Had fun experimenting and 

using it as waves too.

This was a layout based on an inspiration pic for a challenge.

This was a layout I created in Peta's blind scrap. It was a lot of fun.

Anyway that's it for the moment. Got a few layouts on the go, so I'll be back soon.

Thanks for looking.
