LAYOUTS TO SHARE

just a quick post to upload some LOs.
the first is from the Stick and Giggle retreat run by the gorgeous jody up at Mt Tamborine a few weeks back. i was unable to go for the whole weekend but managed a surprise visit up there on the saturday -it was so nice to catch up with old friends and to meet so many lovely new ladies.
this LO is from a class that the gorgeous and VERY PATIENT jolene pienaar ran.
i just love jolene's style and i am thrilled with the way it turned out, even after linda and i sent jolene into a bit of a spin by telling her that we only scrapped in the smaller 8.5 x 11 size.

this photo of kait was taken at louise and chris's wedding back in 2003.
she had been such a good girl all day but by the time the photographer snapped this little gem i think kait was just about over being the cute little flower girl.

the second LO today is one for the scrap lounge CC last friday.
the challenge was set by my gorgeous pal, jodi
a.k.a. "the lounge hog"
LOL
the criteria was as follows.......
-> our patterned paper must be scraps - no NEW sheets
-> a border made from non-scrapping supplies or something recycled
-> a mixed FONT title, I want to see at LEAST 3 different types of alpha's in your titles girls - use up those letters.............
AND - because we are celebrating our FIRST CC as your Creative Team;
the topic of your LO should be about a "first" of some description

and here is my LO for the challenge

this was jakey on his very first day of preschool.
he was so chuffed to be heading off to preschool with all his "new" things including his ninja turtle sleeping bag and sheets.
he was such a little cutie-pie, don't you think...???
i used glad wrap in the bottom RH corner as my "recycled" object.
it was a fun LO to do but i am still unsure as to whether i like it or not.

my CT pack for august arrived today - FINALLY !!!!
rondelle and i were just about thinking that it had disappeared into an Aussie Post black hole.
the goodies within are lovely and i should be creating with them in the next few days.

anyways....that's it for today.
remember to always to look for the things in your life that make you smile
~~ and let those you love, know that you do ~~

~*~ LIVE OUT LOUD ~*~

I love the layout of Jake's first playschool day! Love all the text paper in the background, and the splashes of colour. And he did look so little and cute :)
