A layout

been busy this weekend created two layouts the first was for a sketch challenge over at scrapbook outlet
and the second one I have not taken a photo of yet but it was a layout done just for fun.
On friday we went to raglin to pick Hannah up. I decided last minute and spare of the moment that I would try and get a relever and go to raglin with the family this was very tiring as a trip there and back took eight hours and then there was the shopping and catching up with family the whole trip took twelve hours. Had much needed rain all weekend witch meant deliveries had to be done in the rain but I did get a chance to spend about an hour in the garden so all good.

no excuses

this week
- We have had a full week back at work under staffed and bigger roles than what was thought so it has been a busy week.
- Hannah spent the week in Hamilton. Thanks to Bill and Sue
- Missy had five kittens but one died. They are very cute
- Went to races on sunday, walked out with about twenty dollars more than I started so all good.
- Had some really hot draining days but have made an effort to walk to work three days this week.
- No scrapping or anything too creative. Was on my list of things to do but never got round to it will definantly try in the weekend.

i,ve been busy

While on holiday last week I got to do lots of scrapping layouts that I can now share with you.
This was a sketch challenge. photo was taken at Cornwall park which was a favourite hang out when the children were younger.Enjoyed laceing the frame and highlighting the letters wasa a new techniquic that I tried to use.
this was a colour challenge using green and orange. Dont get to see this wee girl enough so the photos that I have are all scrapped and given to her as a birthday present. Love the colour blocks in this layout.

This was also a sketch challenge. I stamped my letters with ink and love the way the flourishes turned out.
Finally Jess turns 15 tomorrow. Where did those years go. Got her a camera for her birthday. She is very excited. Now she old enough to earn some money so I am pretty excited about that teenagers are so expensive.

man its been a while

Since I last blogged and I apploigise for that I wont boar you with my layouts from then till now but I will put up a few of my favs
this was a layout based on a new zealand song title and I am impressed with the layout even if I didn't get points for it.

and this was part of a word challenge using the word star the photo isnt very good but I like the layout. since I last blogged I have had a birthday not a major one but a birthday none the less I got very spoilt although ended up having to buy a new oven on the day as our one finally cooked its last chicken nugget. So I got an oven for my birthday which I suppose is better than the concrete I got for last christmas. School holidays have rolled around again they seem to creep up fast we were over the teenage attitude by saturday so wish me luck and I hope I survive. Until next time kirsty
