Design DolliesSketch challenge

Happy Tuesday everyone, hope you are all enjoying the start to this new week. We have had a good start to the week, my mojo is soaring at the moment (touch wood) so making the most of it. The above layout is the sketch challenge for DESIGN DOLLIES, I just love Kristy's sketch's and decided to get out my Basic Grey papers for this challenge, I am sure this layout borders on being Monochramatic - just not entirely sure.

We had our wonderful lady's morning today and had a lovely time, some photos are below:

This is Dawn and Barbara and make up 2 of the approx 10 ladies that we have that now come along.

Tomorrow is scrap Wednesday with Jan, because of Jan being sick and other things we have missed 2 weeks, so I am looking forward to spending the day scrapping, I hope Amber will come also, and I look forward to doing some more Scrapbook University challenges.

Talk soon, Love Melxx

Hi Mel, I've been catching up on reading your blog. You've been busy! Love all the layouts, especially the MLSB one with the owl button on it ;) Love that pic of your cute poodle too, he's adorable!

Hi Mel, Fabulous LO!! Love how you have shaped the pics and the neutral colours go so well with the B&W pics. Your MME LO is fantastic with those soft muted colours and again with the cute pics. I wish I had more of my kids when they were little. Really didn't have a great camera back then. Oh well I have made up for it in the older years. Cheers :)

Gorgeous, I love the shaped photos on this one. Congrats again on winning my RAK. I'm not sure if you can buy SRM Stickers anywhere in Australia - even when I do a google search, nothing really shows up? I have been very lucky to be sent some from SRM Stickers when I won some challenges. I'll send some to you with your box of goodies. You will see for yourself how fantastic they are!!
