Just a little reminder....

There's still one more week to get your entries in for the Oct sketch comp over at Handmade by Suzanne.

There is a fabulous store voucher up for grabs!  You can check out the fantastic entries so far HERE in the gallery.  Would love to see some of blog followers giving it a go.....

Sketchabilities

I stumbled across Sketch # 57 over at Sketchabilities the other day & loved it....so of course, I just had to scrap it!

Here is the sketch

 

And here is my layout....

Using some newish Echo Park - Victoria Gardens & old Kaisercraft & Pink Paislee papers...with a few handmade goodies from A Lil Somethin, Lovelybug Bits n Bobs & Charms Creations & a super duper old die cut from MME. 

I am without my computer atm, and having to use DS' old computer (when he's not on it)...and it is taking me forever to do anything as I'm just so use to my own comp!  Hopefully I'll have mine back soon....off to get fixed under waranty - just hope they don't take too long!

Thanks for dropping by...have a great week :-)  xx

15th Oct Stuck sketch...

Home alone on a Saturday....washing done, cleaning done...even a bit of baking done, so what's a girl to do next?.....why, scap of course!  lol

Here is the sketch....

And here is my layout...

I'm not sure if I'm completely happy with it....not sure exactly what it is?  maybe it's the misting?  or the colours?  I was almost at the point of binning it, then I added a bit more misting, and I then I thought it was ok...but only just ok  lol.  Pics are of our family paint war a few years ago on a little getaway at Jindabyne...which was a lot of fun!  (used lots of Lil Somethin's on this one)

Manor House Creations

Are having a sketch competition, so I thought I would give it a go....it is a gorgeous sketch!

And this is what I created.....

Using the gorgeous Manorhouse Creations "Grandmas Garden - Rose Garden" flowers that are available at Handmade by Suzanne.  I have also used some really REALLY old papers from my stash - Pink Paislee Vintage Moon  - Moon Pie & Chatter Box Olive Parlor Roses (now that's old!  lol)...plus some more recent My Minds Eye Lost & Found two.....with a few buttons, lace, handcut leaves & Prima pearl flourish.

Pics are from our trip back in May - While staying at Mildura we took a trip out to Red Cliffs....wow, stunning scenery - my camera & I loved it!

Thanks so much for dropping by & TFL.  xxx
