Round 5

I have created this weeks page for Location Location. You can find all the info here at Scrapz
We had to scrap about "inside my handbag".
LOL now that was a bit scary, you never know what you will find inside my bag...
We also had to include a credit card/gift card or something similar, something found inside our bag and something shiny. Here is my page...
I used an old gift card, a buckle that I found at the bottom of my bag from a pair of pants (never fixed the pants as I thought I had lost the buckle, lol) and the shiny items are the metal embellishments. The journaling reads 'my hubby says I carry everything in my handbag even the kitchen sink'.
Has you can see from the contents photo I carry lots of things from perfume, point and shoot camera, hand sanitizer, sewing repair kit, plastic bag and resus mask, as well the usual things as well.
I used some of my older stash on this page. Really have to start culling out lots of my older paper, have way to much!

Round 4 was to scrap about the inside of our cars. I decided to scrap some photos about 'King' my youngest daughter's dog who just loves to ride in the back of my hubby's convertible with the roof down.
We had to include 2 or more photos, a map or part of and a car. So here is my page.
Just love the cute little Prima car rubon I found in my stash. Seeing has the Google map I printed off the internet was blue and orange I decided to go with those colours, which I think worked very well with this layout.
Head on over to Scrapz for all the details of this comp.
Next up I would like to share lots of digital layouts I have created for challenges over at Soul Scrappers.





All challenges over at Soul Scrappers are open to traditional, digital and hybrid scrappers, so why not pop on over and check them out. There is lots of inspiration to be found on the site.
Thanks for stopping by :)

August Lesson

for another page in our album 'my place in the sun', you can find out all the details over at Scrap beginnings.
This month it is all about beautiful nature. The flowers, trees, sunset, sunrise etc
I have done a page on the flowers in my garden.

I kept it simple so that the photos are the main feature. I am hoping to get another page done about the sunsets.

What's on your plate!

Sunday roast was my photo for round 3 'on my plate' of the Location Location competition over at Scrapz.
We have to use a title made from food packaging, eating utensils and 30 or more journaling words.
So here is my page...
I cut the words '...it's a nutritious taste sensation' from a milo cereal box. The green background is a bit bright but I think it makes it stand out more on the page.
Journaling reads 'Sunday roast...it's a nutritious taste sensation yah, yah, yah. What could be better than that! Every Sunday I cook a roast just for my hubby who leaves on Monday for the week. I just want to make the last meal of the week something special for us all...'
There is still time for you to enter. Each week there is a prize and at the end of the 8 week competition there is a major prize. This comp is great!

Round 2 is to scrap about our wardrobes...eeek! That is what I thought.
Mine always looks like a bomb has gone off in it, even after I have cleaned it out, lol...
So after taking multiple photos (the benefit of having a digital camera right) to get the right angle so my little walk in robe looked half decent, I finally got a photo I was reasonably happy with.
So here is my page for the second challenge.
We had to include pegs or coat hangers, material and buttons. I had the dresses with my material for something a little different and I had these cute mini buttons and pegs in stash so decided to use these. I used Graphic 45 papers kit 'Fashionista' for this layout. The journaling reads "My wardrobe is not much to look at. It doesn't have the latest fashions hanging in it and it always looks like a bomb has gone of in it..."
You can find out all the details over at Scrapz for this 8 week competition.

Now To Show You...

the page I created for week 1 for the competition over at Scrapz. 

The comp runs for 8 weeks and each week a challenge is set by the DT's. There are weekly winners and then there will be major prizes at the end of the competition.
So here is my completed page for week 1. ÓOPS! What's for dinner? It's in the basket.
We had to scrap about what was in our shopping trolley's or baskets. I went with basket and I an tell you it was rather embarrassing taking a photo in the supermarket, I pretended to be text messaging on my phone after checking the isle to make sure nobody was around, lol! 
So now to start on week 2. We have to scrap about our wardrobes, eek!!!
Mine looks like a bomb has gone off in it, lol!
