Life is beautiful

After a lovely afternoon of scrapping with Kim and her niece Roxanne, I finished this page for the May Photo Challenge at Home and Scrapped. The challenge was to scrap a season with the colours of that season and a quote.


This picture of my gorgeous friend Mary was so perfect and as an added bonus I used on the page some of the things she had given me, the journal spot, tag, red hessian and punched bird edging. I also used Webster trim, Kaiser wood shapes, Martha Stewart Doily punch and ribbon from Craft Queen.

Much to my delight this page was chosen as a featured layout for the week at the Scrapboxx, very honoured.

SCRAPPY SATURDAY WITH COMPANY

I am so fortunate to have two really awesome ladies, Mary and Kim as my dearest friends, and incredibly lucky that we have the opportunity to get together every second Saturday to scrap.  This Saturday was fantastic as we had the lovely Cheryl (Cootamundra) and the gorgeous Jo (Mudgee) both travel to join us all for the day. We all had so much fun, scrapping, chatting, playing with the great toys that Jo (bigshot) well looked at Jo's didn't really play, but will next time and Cheryl (cricut) did have a play with it (can see a wish list happening here)   And then of course there was lunch, chicken, tossed salad (with a yummy handmade dressing by Mary) and crusty french stick, but the thing that we were all waiting for was Kims Famous PAV and boy was the wait worth, it think she excelled hereself this this. And if the look on Jo's face was anything to go by, yes, it tasted as good as it looked, I still have one piece left for afternoon tea today. Yummo!!!! Then u...

Stuck?!: October 15th Challenge

So the second challenge I did a layout for is the October 15th Challenge at Stuck?! Sketches, October 15th Challenge . Really liked the Sketch for this Challenge It was perfect for this last picture of my beautiful dog Wombat who crossed over the rainbow bridge on the 22nd September this year. He was not quite 17 and was the most gentle, loving and incredible dog that I have had the privilege of being part of our lives. Unfortunately his arthritis became that bad a decision had to be made. He took a piece of my heart with him and he will never be forgotten. For this page I used some old 7 dots studio Lost and Found paper, washi tape, jute ribbon and lots of bits and pieces from my stash. Cheers all Annette

Natures Splendour

I recently went for a lovely stroll around Orange Botanical Gardens with a dear friend Sharon. Of course I took my camera with me as spring is such a beautiful, and fav, time of the year here, with the amazing zoom I have on it I took this gorgeous pic of a honeyeater doing its thing. Fast forward to the latest challenge at Kraft Plus Challenges which is Inspired by Nature and I knew that I had the perfect pic for it. I used a couple of different stamps - Kaisercraft Arty and Prima Marketing, Lindys Stamp Gang Mist, Scrapmatts leaf, dyed muslin, die cut leaves and twig, black tiny twine, small prima green flower, lasercut chippy butterfly, larger handmade flower, brown leaves and for the nature element seed pods. Loved this challenge so go and have a look at all the amazing ideas there already. Hugs and love Annette xo
