Be Yourself.....

because everyone else is already taken!  I really like that quote! I like that my MOJO has returned and I am getting some scrapping done!  I have even had a few picked up by Scrapbook Memories, so that is exciting too.  I have a little LO (AGAIN with the girly girl) I snapped this pic of Christie at my 50th and I have edited it a bit but I really love the photo.  I love the strong go-getter, know-what-she- wants type of person she has become.  She is so full of confidence and plans and I have no doubt she will achieve them, we are so proud of her.  I have this photo up in my craft room as well.  I thought the CV Free Spirit and its awesome little quotes suited the LO and it was super quick to put together too (always a bonus!)  Pop on over to Scrapbook Boutique and you can browse the shop for your goodies and there is heaps at the moment and maybe join our challenge, our new one is up on 10th April AND we have two super talented new girls joining us so go and check them out!!!

MY Girl

Hello there! I am happy to say I have been scrapping again! I really do like PL (project life) but I think you have to be so disciplined to keep on top of it all and if you miss a day, week or event, you just seem to be chasing your tail...... I have good intentions to just PL EVENTS but even those are really hard to maintain. If I actually used the time I spent procrastinating actually doing the things I procrastinate about........... hmmmmm anyway a messy LO today I have sprayed and dropped and misted and I actually am happy that it looks random (TRUST ME IT'S NOT!!) Christie was a bridesmaid early last year and she looked beautiful, as did the whole wedding party! It was nice to scrap some girly girly LO as I tend to lean a bit on the masculine these days. Head on over to Scrapbook Boutique for the details and products used for this LO (an easy quick one today)

New Suit

Hi there!  Back again playing with my gelatos BUT this time I have changed it up a little.  I have used the Gelatos dry.  This is my controlled mess Angela coming out!  I have used my Tim Holtz layering stars stencil with paste and then swiped my gelatoes across the dry paste.  To get the nice swish look, I have used my finger to wipe across in a diagonal.
I love this pic of my Patrick at his Year 10 Formal.  He was going to a few black tie events this year and we decided to buy him his own suit.  My boys love getting in a suit, they strut around like they are models........
Anyway head on over to Scrapbook Boutique to grab all the the instructions and purchase all the products used for this LO.

My Happy

Hello again, I have revisted my gelatos again and these little things are quite addictive! I do class myself as a fence sitter when I describe my style.... I do like messy  but organised messy!  This LO was a little out of my comfort zone and did play havoc with my senses.  I had NO IDEA what I wanted and just kept adding and playing and eventually ended up with a colourful organised Mess :)
Lots and lots of water was added to dilute the intense colour and if you head on over to Scrapbook Boutique you can see all the instructions and purchase any products used for this LO.
