SLYMI weeks 33-38

Oops I have been forgetting to post here so now have a few weeks to catch up with

Week 38 - Scrap a lesson learned, I scrapped the many photos of my girls after discovering how hard it is to get the 2 of them to sit still long enough to get just one nice photo. The title is one long sentence but with 3 words picked out based on the fabulous line uttered by Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight - "why so serious"

Week 37 - Scrap with metal

I used the metal word Love and some brads for this

Week 36 - Scrap something magical

well this was just my 2 looking like princesses at my friends wedding

Week 35 - Scrap a bank holiday weekend

We very rarely have bank hols in Scotland so had to pick the easter holiday

Week 34 - Scrap from the sketch

Week 33 - Scrap a square within a square

SLYMI weeks 21 and 22

Week 21 - scrap a song title

I went for Lily Allen's "Not Fair" for these photos of Robyn being caught on the kitchen counter



Week 22 - Scrap from the sketch

a very minimalist sketch that was hard for me even though I like simple layouts I found this one just a bit too empty

sketch LO and SLYMI week 16

I found another lovely site with great sketches here http://www.creativelyyours.wordpress.com/ and this is my attempt at sketch number 53. I have so many pages that I'm impatient to get done right now. Using a sketch is a wonderful idea as it takes the time needed to decide where everything is going to go away so you can just get on with it. I've also rediscovered sewing on layouts which is great fun and definitely needed on the ribbon as it was a pain to stick the folds down.

SLYMI Week 16 - scrap in the morning

pain in the bum for me as I'm an evening scrapper. it's the only time I get peace and quiet to do anything so this ended up taking about 5 mornings whereas normally I'd have finished it in an evening

a little sketch challenge

There's a fab little sketch challenge here http://sisterlycreations.blogspot.com/2009/04/small-challenge-for-you.html which I decided to have a go at. The sketch is lovely and simple with clean lines which is the style I love. Here's what I came up with
