Sketches: Creatively Yours... layout 8
Another week, another sketch and another layout completed.... this one I did very simply (just like a lot of my other layouts) and it was 1-2-3 done!
As to why the photos look out of focus and skew... who knows??? it's how it scanned!

Sketches: Creatively Yours... layout 7
Another sketch is up for this month at Sketches: Creatively Yours.... this is my layout
In celebration of all things "World Cup". The background was all put together from scraps of cardstock and I cut the soccerball out of black cardstock. The 2010 is actually ribbon that I bought which might end up appearing on a few more layouts of the world cup.
Be sure to visit the Sketches blog and see what the others on the design team have done with this month's sketch... lots of variety.

Once Upon A Time...
I did some quilling... and now eventually I've scrapped the layout about it!
This layout I did for a challenge over at In2Crafts.... their June challenge was to create a layout about a fairytale... made up if you want! I'm so glad to have gotten this one done eventually!!!

Some more layouts for Let's Scrap
The National Scrap Day {month?} is over at Let's Scrap.... but I had some layouts still planned... here are the last of them all done now...
NSD#3 - this challenge was done on the day but I liked the sketch and challenge so decided to it anyway.... had to use the following recipes:
5 buttons
4 metal items - I used staples
3 patterned papers
2 quotation marks (in my journalling)
1 handwriting - my journalling
Challenge 11 - school based layout and use 3 different embellishments
Challenge 44 - use 2 different patterned papers and scrap a home
Challenge 46 - use paper older than 5 years from your stash, use alphabet stickers in your title, use 2 items from the list... I used stickers & rubons
Challenge 47 - no patterned paper allowed, use a diecut, use a handmade an element (my railway track), use a quote
Had lots of fun creating all these layouts for the challenges at Let's Scrap... why don't you check them out and do a few...

Today's THE day..
World Cup Soccer IS HERE!!! And look... even Google is feeling the fever...
And the same for Google.co.za
It is soooooooo exciting!
Aaron & I along with friends were among that HUGE crowd on Wednesday in Sandton.... lots of fun and VERY VERY LOUD vuvuzelas. We got to see the bus with the team and coach on it... but unfortunately I missed the photo as I was holding Aaron up away from the mass... here's some of the pics from the day.
The bunch of us from work with the SA Police on our way to the madness
That is the team standing there on the bus.... will have to zoom in just to prove it!
and after all this madness we went to Sandton City for some lunch. Everyone was blowing the silly vuvuzelas IN the shopping centre too.... sooooooooooooooooooo not nice! It echos and is about 10 time louder than is actually comfortable on the ears. But in amongst all that we did manage to get this cute pic (didn't realise it was so fuzzy... sorry!)
And so the World Cup starts.... lots of fun.

I really enjoyed the simplicity of this sketch and let the photos and paper gel to tell the story.

I'm going to say it again....
wait for it.....
hehehe..... yes just had to announce it again. I opened my email this morning and found out I won one of the challenges over at Let's Scrap.
That is my crossword layout, which you can see here. This is the prize that I will be getting
I simply love alphabet stickers so this will definitely be a treat! Thanks to Carolina for running the challenge too. You can read more about her fascinating life on her blog... Scrapping Nomad.

Last few layouts for Let's Scrap
Here are the last three layouts I did over the weekend for the challenges at Let's Scrap
Challenge 17 - use red, three circles & stitching
These three layouts were lots of fun to create. I've still got a few more planned that I never got done in time for the challenge deadline (which was 31 May) .... but I will still work on them over the next few weeks.
Challenge 17 - use red, three circles & stitching
Challenge 22 - Nature photos
Challenge 6 - distress as much as possible
These three layouts were lots of fun to create. I've still got a few more planned that I never got done in time for the challenge deadline (which was 31 May) .... but I will still work on them over the next few weeks.
