2 latest layouts

Here's 2 layouts for Enchanted scrapbooking's cybercrop.The queer gear one was using all warm colours and the Stonehenge one needed 4 photos plus a one word title.

This and that

I've just found this cute site for cards but the ideas are transferable for layouts.

Meanwhile I've been working on design team work for From screen to scrap.The layout for 2 months time features a new baby or pregnancy photo.As there were very few of the latter,I opted for the new baby.It is the first time I've done one of those triangular banners on a layout but I'm having fun.

There's a cybercrop on at Enchanted scrapbooking this weekend.


I missed out on my application for the Design TEam at Scraphappy Kat but I'm not too worried,it was for a sketch co-ordinator which could be quite time consuming.They are sending me a mystery gift for applying ,which is generous of them.

Scrap that poetry

Here's my layout for Scrap that poetry. It is based on the religious poem about footsteps in the sand. I chose the phrase "one set of footprints" to scrap. The blue background is not part of this layout,I just put it on for the scanning.These footprints were on a plinth where a statue once stood thousands of years ago in Lindos,Rhodes,Greece.

Inspired Blueprints sketch # 50.

Here's my latest layout for Inspired Blueprints.I went dotty with this one,which nearly drove me crazy when trying to "stitch" the layout using my scanner software.It shows Erica sitting in front of the Parthenon on our holiday last year.

I'm on another design team...yeaaaah!!!

"Thank You so much for your application to be a member of our Design Team August 2010 – January 2011….
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you aboard our team, and look forward to working with you over the next few months." This email arrived just a while ago from Brittannahlee stamp and scraps.
I'm very excited to be asked to be part of their team. Here's the link to their site.http://www.stampandscrap.com.au/ They are based in Shepparton VIC and have an online store.Go and visit!

A new blog for inspiration

I've just been "blog surfing" via mandysea who very kindly left a message about the last layout.I discovered a blog called the thrifty nest which features quotes and interesting pictures from the 1950's and earlier.She is a collage artist and has some interesting links.I'm sure she will provide inspiration for the shabby layouts.
