Rarotonga - SBT50

My layout for the challenge at Scrapbooking Top 50.
I was inspired by the island holiday theme. My daughter and family have just got back from a very relaxing week in Rarotonga. The girls loved the swimming and Madi, who used to be scared of waves, even mastered snorkelling!

Moana - Stuck?! Sketches

I loved this October 1st sketch at Stuck?! Sketches!
My daughter called and said Madi needed a Moana outfit for the following day (last minute, Charlie!!) and did I have anything in my stash that might work. I found a perfect handprinted table runner that I had bought at a craft fair years ago, some calico and a cheap chiffon scarf I bought for making burnt edge flowers! LOL! I am such a hoarder!!
Two hours later, 'Moana, a.k.a. Madison' :)

Mini Me - Double trouble STB

I was going to use this photo for last month's challenge at Scrap the Boys,  (Father's day)but things got hectic and it never got done, so when I saw the sketch for the October challenge I was ready to go! My title 'Mini Me - double trouble', pretty well sums up these two!

Scrap the Girls - sweet

Love the sketch at Scrap the Girls this month! I have been getting a little bored with my style and wanted to try something different, so I got out my stamps (some I have had for about 10 years!) and the Ken Oliver Liquid Metals that I bought at last years SENZ.

Not happy! July 1st Stuck?! Sketches

My layout for the July 1st challenge at Stuck?! Sketches. Miss R had her grumpiest look on all the way to daycare in the first week when she realised they weren't going to the park. She wouldn't smile or even look at Mum! How to make a mother feel guilty!! By week 3 she was smiling and eager to go most days.
