Hello everyone, hope you are enjoying your weekends, wet again here, we had 2 dry days though which was nice to get some washing dry....Well we had our busy week here, we went to see Frosty and Nate had a great time, and Thursday I stayed home and did the layout above which was for the colour challenge on the Crate Blog. I treasure it when Nate comes up and kisses me and says " I wuv you muumm" so I just wanted to document these great shots I took using my other hand.....
This is the great photo I got when we went to our local shopping centre for their photo shoots with Santa. It was great. They said it was such a success they will do it over 2 days next year. I was on a waiting list until the Friday before this shot was taken so feel lucky I made the cut....
Stanley is on the left and Maxi (his dad) is the greyer 14 yr old hog.
Bought myself this book as an early Christmas present a few weeks back and just love it, the layout for the Crate blog challenge is from this book, I have completed 2 layouts so far using it, it takes me out of my usual style and I am enjoying using it.
At Sketches 4 all this month, there is so many fantastic prizes up for grabs, you just have to come and join in, I have just won the ECHO PARK BOY papers and am stoked as I just love them. The above layout is for Fia's sketch challenge, and again the prize is just amazing, and I also have a great rak up for grabs to the winner of the "Scrap your traditional colours for Christmas" challenge. All you have to do is create a Christmas layout using the colours you love for Christmas, I am a red green and gold girl but there are some amazing colour schemes in the GALLERY. Just press HERE to check out this sensational challenge blog.
Love to you all, I hope you and your family's are well, thank you for being my extended family, you all mean the world to me. Love Melxx
