Blog hop.

Sadly there is no blog hop today due to technological problems. The big reveal is still happening on the scrapwhispers website so why not check that out! We also signing up for the new round of whispers. If you haven't played before it is TONS of fun. The anticipation is almost too much when you see just how the layouts change over the course of the game. You only have to create one layout too, based on a scraplift. Not sure on how to play?

Scrap it with a song

Scrap it with a song's song choice this week is "So happy together" by The Turtles. A lovely track which you might know from the movie Shrek ("I can't see me loving nobody but you for all my life...") Now I've got that fixed firmly in your heads ( :) ) this is the layout I created. DD and the Boy on the beach digging in the sand. They were so happy just sitting and playing "TOGETHER". Here is a close up of the title. I did this by dry embossing onto vellum. I only scratched it roughly to give the impression of wave foam. As an added bonus the vellum turned out a bit bumpy so I'm pretty pleased with result seeing as it was done on a whim. Thanks for stopping by. Make sure you check back tomorrow for the Scrapwhispers Blog hop! Its a fun one!

Scrappy cat

I think my kitten, Pepé, likes scrapbooking! LOL I was trying to work on a project the other day and he kept getting tangled up in my ribbons and then just sitting on the piece I was working on. He is a real mummy's kitten, No matter what I do he is always there. He has curled up on my lap as I type this out :) Enjoy the Sunshine!! I will be. Its the first day of sun all week! yay!

SJ July sketch challenge

A little while ago I was suprised by an online friend when she asked if I would join in the July sketch challenge on SJ. I was very flattered and of course I said "yes". Stacey had made the sketch and it was very versatile. This is the layout I came up with. To see the sketch and what other's did with it click here.

Hello!!

I'm back from my hols! It was fabulous! the weather, the accommodation, the food, the people... now I'm pining to go back. When I logged on here I realised the posts I'd prescheduled hadn't worked! I've no idea what I did wrong but something didn't work. While I was away the July 1st challenge went up over at Scrap that poetry. The poem for this challenge is called first love and you can view it here. For my layout I chose the line "I never saw so sweet a face" to go with this photo of my DD. I'm still using up my scraps and these rolled roses are great for doing that. I'm addicted to making them! The flourishes are mine, from swirling a line of PVA glue and then adding some flat backed pearls. So come on over and see what the other DT members created. Maybe even have a go at the poem yourself?!?!?!?! :)
