Look Who’s Turning 7

Well, almost 8 actually, so it’s time I did the layout for last years birthday!

Hi everyone,

Here today to share a little layout I finished off over the weekend.  This one was for the Dlish scraps monthly challenge.

I just loved this colour palette so I ran with that and I did “loosely” follow the sketch too.  I did use their “Just add paper kit” for the month too (well most of it) which kept things simple 🙂

thanks for popping by today.

2 layouts in 1 week = Happy dance

Well hello there,

This is what I love about crops, in particular Cyber ones.  I can scrap in my space with all of my things AND with the challenges, I’m motivated to actually create!

This was the second challenge for the crop I’ve done – I usually use tags but I have so many I thought it might be a good idea to use up a couple.

 Here is my layout, I’ve used 2 in the background/paper layers and then I found these cute letter tags so I’ve used them too.  I love love love the photos in this one, Chris took them…  having a pro photographer in the family does come in very handy for a scrap booker!!

and some close ups to show all the little details…

I love these little Dlish bows… in the sweetest green and pink!

Thanks for popping by, its great you are here 🙂

A new look for "About A Girl" and a challenge

Hi there everyone!

Well, notice anything different?  Yup, I have finally taken some time out to revamp my blog and I am super happy with its new clean look 🙂

Lots to share today starting with a couple of layouts I did at the My 2 Angels retreat recently.  It was so nice to get out of the house for a day and meet some of the lovely ladies I have been stalking online 🙂  All super sweet and oh so talented!!

I have also had some time today to create!  This is for a challenge over at the Scrap Suite for Dlish scraps cyber crop – what a wonderful bunch of ladies they have there, really, they are so fun!

I’ve used lots of Dlish goodies here, the sequin bow, the enamel dots and flair and those cute little kraft love hearts.  I have used the number 3 and lots of shapes, squares, rectangles, circles and hearts.

Hoping to get at least one more challenge done this weekend, just not sure which one to choose!

Hope you like the new digs – please let me know what you think 🙂

Until next time,
Gwen

Hello again crafty people,

Here today to share my last challenge entry, as soon as I saw Wendy’s layout I knew I had to give this one a go.  Normally NOT my colours but I knew I had the perfect photo so jumped on in 🙂

I’ve used another one of my new Dlish flair buttons here too, inside the sun.

Dlish Scraps 5th Birthday Cybercrop – Challenge No 8

Well hello there,

I’m back with more entries for the Dlish Scraps Cybercrop.  This time it is for Challenge No 8:

I have never used this technique so I was keen to give it a try.  I wanted to see if I could use it in conjunction with the techniques I would normally use on a background and I must say I think it went super well!

Here is my take:

and no, I did not make the cake 🙂  I commissioned it though!

and here you can see my stamping – it’s the turquoise colour.  Caitlin is now 7 and 1/2 so I have been wanting to scrap the photos of her 6th birthday for what seems like forever.  So glad to get a couple done this weekend – you will see the other one in the rainbow challenge.

more challenge entries to come!
