I am so happy to share with you my first project as part of the Design Team for Aussie Crafters! I am not known for my card-making ability, so when I was asked to not only make a card, but a shaker card, I thought 'Oh no!". But, I was determined to learn & after searching YouTube for turorials, I came up with this! I am so happy with how it turned out :) Please head over to Aussie Crafters & check out their swaps, sketches (soon to be revealed) & awesome inspiration. Would love to see you there X

Products used:

This week for Scrapsidaisy Scraplift Challenges Number 112, the theme was Oscar Fever. Using Minnie Mouse as my inspiration, I decided to go Project Life. I have only dabbled with it so far, so I'm not sure if I went to 'scrap-booky' or not, but I got the effect that I wanted. I'm am going to have to work on my photo-taking skills of my layouts as I can see I need to improve. X

Woo Hoo, here I am again, updating my blog! I may just become a computer whizz after all! ;) I want to share with you, my entry for a new monthly challenge at Kraft Plus http://kraftpluschallenges.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/february-challenge-mango-breeze.html. After starting this layout with stencils, texture paste & inks & sprays, I wasn't happy with how it was going :( So,  I turned the Kraft over & started again! I had seen a technique using Project Life cards on layouts, so I found these Becky Higgins cards that were just perfect for what I wanted to say. My next step now, is to see if I can link this up to the Kraft Plus blog - wish me luck! Thanks for stopping by & remember, Live Life then Scrap It! X

Here is another layout I did recently for Scrap The Boys January Challenge. I was unable to finish it before the deadline, so it wasn't submitted. However, I was encouraged to share it anyway whenever I did finish it. I love this range of papers & had fun doing this one.

Hi all! I know I've been MIA recently, but I had forgotten how to upload here. Thanks to Miss 14, I think I now have it! ;) This is my latest challenge, uploaded for Scrapsidaisy Scraplift Challenges Number 111. The theme was Dr Seuss! I looked up some quotes & after Miss 9 decided on the one she liked best, it was so easy. I took a series of photos, printed them off & simply stuck & cut! One of the easiest layouts I've ever made.

So devastated! My camera has just given up the ghost :( It was a little point & shoot number that has lasted me about 5 or so years... And, just when I was learning how to upload onto my blog and challenge sites from it! Time to start saving for a new one I suppose... a DSLR, I'm hoping :)

Okay, so here I am again! Playing around, trying to sort out my blog... I don't understand why my brain just doesn't want to 'get it'! I am more determined than ever to create everyday & enter more challenges & submit to magazines! This is my first time doing the Scrap The Boys challenge. The theme was Technology Savvy and here is my boy, Jared, completely engrossed in the Play Station. Next challenge is to upload it to their blog - wish me luck! :)
