A winner!

I submitted the below layout to Purplescraps for a challenge and won a $50 voucher to the scrapbook hut in Wagga Wagga.This surprised me.Maybe it is a winner.
I've bought some Basic Grey papers and flowers to inspire me to more interesting scrapping.

Here is a different layout I've been working on for quite a while.The clock hands were unavailable anywhere until I saw some clocks in Spotlight being thrown out at $2. I pulled them apart and the hands were perfect.I tried to use as many rub-on numbers and stickers as I had. It took some organising.I cut a film strip outline into 2 and used 6 old photos of myself.The tiltle;In times past took a bit of thinking as I wanted the word Time in it somewhere.I've submitted it to all 3 magazines as an idea...we will wait and see eh?

Blind scrapping

I've done 2 episodes of Blind scrapping on Purplescraps lately and have been satisfied with the results.It is following directions without a picture to guide you. The results are sometimes surprising!

Pink phase

Some famous artist had his blue phase. I think I'm having a pink one!My 2 latest creations have both been pink but I'm happy with both of them. I created "Because I'm your Mum" for White with one blogspot.It was the first non-sketch layout I've done in ages and I'm really happy with how it turned out.

New site(for me) to inspire!

I've recently discovered "pencil lines" website which has a sketch each week to inspire me. I've completed one sketch 81 . I loved the way this one came together and I even used my sewing machine!

Graduation time.

Here is my daughter Erica at her Graduation in Charles Sturt Uni Wagga Wagga. She is now a B.A (Design for theatre and television).
I'm so proud of her achievements as this course has been hard going at times with lots of practical work and long hours at the theatre.It has been a growth time for her and she is quite the independant young lady now!

Back again-that 21st Album.

With all that is going on here I've been neglecting this blog. My daughter graduates next week. I'm so proud of her.She now is a B.A. (Design)
Thanks to Purplescraps I have a renewed interest in scrapbooking. I've been doing Erica's 21st album which has gotten me down because it is taking so long, but finally it is nearly there.She has commented on what a good job I'm doing so that is also motivation for me.
A friend , Kaye has had a layout published in scrapbook creations. It looks great!
