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!

Entry for design team

I noticed on Scrapware that there was a call for a design team so I have sent an entry in. It seems a lot of these sites have their friends as their design team but I thought I'd try. I need some new challenges this year since my scrapbook teaching has finished.I've been doing the sketch challenges on Purplescraps and still working on the CJ's.Other than that I only do occasional layouts for family etc photos. Hopefully the new digital camera will inspire me to get into it again.

She passed!

Finally we have had some good news.Erica passed her uni courses so she will now graduate as a B.A. I'm sooooo proud of her achievements. Now the next step is to get a job in theatre somewhere. Hopefully they need a costume designer.I don't often blog about personal things happening but this is a biggie. It may call for a layout I think.
