Scrappers Block

Ever heard of writters block, well I've come up with a new twist on this called scrapper block. I have decided to just leave all my scrapping supplies in the cupboard for a few days (but suffering huge withdrawl symptoms). I think I need to take a break from it for a couple of days until I can let the inspiration flow again. I have tried twice to do the Scrapbook Studio 2 for Tuesday challenge and both times with less than pleasing results. I do have a couple of altered items waiting for some scrapping magic but not sure whether I can cope with them either. Oh well maybe in a couple of days thing will start to look up again.

December LO

This is my take on the Scrapbook Studio December LO, set by Faye. Just love using paint now and I now have another medium that I can call upon on my LO's. I have stamped the CS with bubble wrap that was covered in paint. It certainly gives the CS a whole new look. I love using my Cricut as I can now cut out flowers to my hearts content. The small strips of paper are BG and it was nice to use very little paper. I have tried to not cover the background too much so the painted surface can show through.

Christmas Inspiration Overload

I think that I am suffering this great disease. I saw something similar to this on the net, so decided to give it a go. I have placed transparancy Christmas trees between each of the pages almost to look like rubons. I am pleased with the outcome and plan to place some photos of the kids in it on Christmas day.

I have enjoyed the Christmas spirit that the team at the Scrapbook Studio are putting us in at the moment. They have done a fabulous job and given us plenty to do. If you haven't already check out the site http://www.scrapbookingbydesign.co.nz/

Cheers and have a great weekend!!

Fairytale Fantasies

The Junior Syndicate at Jaden's school has been studying the topic of Fairytales for the last term of school. He came home with a note last week saying that the junior syndicate could dress up as their favourite fairytale character. Jaden's immediate response was Puss-in-Boots. So along to the fancy dress shop I went and voila, Puss-in-Boots immerged. They will be hosting the whole school assembly and parading their attire.

I have also since my last blog, received notice that Emma starts Kindergarten on the 7th Feb. Yay, more time to scrap!!! LOL.

On the 3rd day of Christmas....

Well the 3rd of December already. With Hubby away for the weekend I had my chance to spend time with the kids and scrap!! Put the christmas tree up on Saturday, small but looking very nice. Took the kids to the school pool for a swim. Then Saturday night came up with a few scrapbooking creations.

Quiet Weekend

Hubby is away for the weekend hunting (one of those boys weekends). It is just me and the kids at home and we have a few things planned. The Christmas tree will go up today (albeit a little earlier than nomal). Will take them down to the school pool for a swim later, as it is very hot here today. I plan to have a scrap marathon once the kids are in bed tonight, I have plenty to do so will be busy.
