Sharing The Love

Everytime I scrap, Lachlan and Michala keep tabs on who I am doing the layout about. It's like they have a little competition between them to see who I scrap the most - perhaps they're trying to establish who is 'the favourite'! LOL Yesterday I had some ladies around for a scrappy day - including Donna who travelled all the way from Dalby (that's 2 hours each way!). I managed 3 layouts (including a double!) and they were of each of my kiddies - no arguments necessary!


My first layout is for the current sketch challenge at Get Picky. Here is the sketch:

and here is my layout:

Those of you who read my blog would know that I don't enjoy doing double layouts - but 8.5 x 11 doubles I seem to be able to handle.

I have used October Afternoon 'Schoolhouse' on this one and once again flicked a bit of paint around. :)

I don't think there is a layout of mine lately that doesn't have the title outlined! LOL And I've even added a banner:

This next layout is for the March 15th sketch at Stuck?! Sketches. I have changed it around a little:

I love the bright colours in this range from Bella Blvd. I've misted the background and also sprayed the Pink Paislee Artisan shape. And oh the troubles I had with this flower (hey Donna! PMSL). (On a side note: is anyone else as dissapointed as i am in the 'new and improved' Pritt gel? It's too runny and takes forever to dry.)

And finally a 'just because' layout about my baby:

I've used Echo Park 'Springtime' - I love the pastel colours. I've used a Chip Chop shop fabric flower and popped a brad I made using my new I-Top in the middle:

And a bit of doodling, as usual!

Congrats if you have made it to the end of this mammoth post! I just wanted to say a big thank you also to all the lovely ladies who left comments as part of the Chat With Charm blog hop. Such a lovely surprise! Thanks so much for stopping by...
