AllyScraps Next Top Scrapbooker Contest



Starts tomorrow! WOO HOO!

There will be weekly challenges, games and other fun stuff throughout October and there will be prizes.

Just play along with some or all of the challenges as you can. There are bonus points awarded too so it won't matter if you can't do EVERYTHING. There will be a prize for the gal with the top score and one lucky gal may even get to join the DT!

Now I'm being a little sneaky here. There are 25 points on offer if you refer a friend. That will be you then! So why don't you pop along and join in and I'll give a RAK to one of my lucky 'friends' at the end of the month. {Just don't tell anyone that I'm bribing you.}

So scoot! Take a look here for more information. I'M COUNTING ON YOU!

I know I've used this excuse before, but life does genuinely get in the way some times.

I've been rushed off my feet this past week or so. Unfortunately my Aunt passed away and I have been organising and sorting things out. She lived new Carlisle so not exactly next door. Still, with the funeral tomorrow, I will be able to say a fond farewell.

I looked in my September folder and it's looking rather dismal! No - not the stuff that was in there, the fact that there wasn't anything in there that I can publish! Wait, there wasn't much in there anyway.

So, I leave you with some stuff from last month and update my Ally Scraps layouts later this week.





It's not often that I scrap with just cardstock, but I felt inspired to make these beach huts,etc. after reading You Can Craft. The photos of Jacob during our trip to Wales where we had the only bit of sunshine in the whole country. LOL.



More photos from Disney last year. I just love this set of papers from My Mind's Eye (they are truly my favourite). The mini book holds umpteen other books.



I had to try out a little bit of doodling after reading Adrienne Loome's book. Not in the same league but something different for me at least. This was done for the BOM prompt this week at Ally Scraps Forum. I know that one or two of you pop in for a sneaky peak. Well no more sneaking around. Sign-up and let yourself be heard! There really is a lovely bunch of ladies who are just so kind and friendly. I'm feeling a bit lonely on the BOM so why not pop in and say hi. Just drop in here.

Anyway, no more rabbiting. I'm off to find a tag!

Happy scrapping!

We're going Back to School

A real mixed emotion because I'm glad to have some quiet time (and desperately need to clean top to bottom), but also I'm going to miss the critters too. Lauren is starting full time - she'll be a proper school girl. Ahhh.

I've got a bunch of things to share but it all takes so long on here. Anyway, here goes...

I'm having a lot of fun over at Ally Scraps.

I've used Quick Quotes Good Times collection for our DT reveal this month. The subject was Summer. I manage to capture Lauren enjoying the paddling pool at our friend's house recently.



I love the little strawberry. I've used seed beeds for the pips.



This little card is so cute! I've used Sandylion Boy Stamps and some left over papers.



Old photos from Jacob's 2nd birthday party (and more bunting - I know). (The photos look strange because of the cardstock but click on them for a better view).







This is Prima for the book of me challenge - what makes me proud.







TFL!
