Scraps On

I have been dipping in and out of Shimelle's Crop Party and this is what I have done today:


I've always wanted to do a large photo page so I am happy to have given this a bash even thought it is only a 8x8 but shh don't tell anyone ;p I've used Bazzill and a scrap of some very old TLC patterned paper - I love this colour teamed with the traditional red, white and black Disney colours. Other supplies are Doodlebug Uncle Sam, TLC (alphas) and Creative Imaginations stickers, Papermania gems and a couple of red brads.

I am loving all the bunting that is out at the moment so I was delighted to give this a go on a page:


Supplies include Bazzill, scraps of patterned paper (some TLC) ribbon, Papermania gems and some TLC (alphas), Doodlebug and Creative Imaginations stickers. Thanks for stopping by - happy Saturday!

I Heart Alligator Bayou

I've been working on this page as part of a challenge for Shimelle's Something from Almost Nothing class. The challenge was to pick a shape and use it over and over on a page. I picked a house as I thought I'd get some use out of my little house Sizzix die although it didn't quite work out like that but here is the result...



I only managed two houses - the photo mat and the little Sizzix die but I am happy to have finally used up a teeny tiny bit of the 18" little white picket fence I bought in Joanns/Michaels over two years ago and two wooden embellies that I bought it the same time. Some super stash busting I think ;)

I also used two sheets of cardstock that I received in one of my Sarah's Cards Grab Bags so I'm happy to have put that to good use. I added some Thickers (the brown vinyl ones were also in one of Sarah's Grab bags) for the title and added a Doodlebug Home Sweet Home charm aswell.

The photos were taken at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside Resort in 2007.

Thank Crunchie it's Friday!

I heart pink

It's no secret that I love pink and I am very lucky to have two neices to create lots and lots and lots of pink pages for. This is my most recent page using K&Co Small Wonders, Bazzill, Sizzix Hearts die and Papermania butterflies. I've left the journalling block free so her Mummy can add her own thoughts.

There's a first for everything



This is the first page of my little man's first album and I've used his first photo ever!! (minus the three scans I had but shh)...

I've used DCWV Grade School and My Little Yellow Bicycle Baby Safari.

What's in a name?

I've picked the name 'it's all about me' for this blog because... when I ask my son Jack (18 months) what it's all about he says 'me, me, me' although it's more like mi, mi, mi. Watch this space for some crafty goings on.
