it was a CC weekend over at the lounge last weekend and what a weekend of laughter, giggles, chatting, creating, inspiration and some mild bullying and lots of sulking when i failed to draw out the "right" bingo numbers.
ROTFL
all in all a wonderful weekend and the gallery is sparkling with lots of gorgeous LOs.
there are such talented people out there.
my challenge was to scrap a monochromatic LO - the girls could choose any colour they wanted and scrap any topic but they had to incorporate hand and/or machine stitching on their LOs.
you can see the results here
pretty amazing some of them aren't they...???
this is my LO for the challenge.
i am thinking i might use this photo (taken one foggy morning from our side door) for the calendars for christmas gifts this year.
i particularly like the effect of having the muslin as a base for the LO
(and muslin is as cheap as chips too)
the buttons are from my nana's stash that i "inherited" after she passed away....there are some pretty amazing buttons in it i can tell you, including these beauties.
the only other challenge i managed to get done was jo's
here is my LO.
i am really pleased with the way it turned out. LOVE those new prima flowers that i received this week from Scrapsadaisy
very vintage-y.
and as you may have noticed i managed to get one of the fiskars water threading punches or whatever you call them.
great punch - stupid name !!!
thanks to a heads up from kirsten i got one from spotlight of all places (and they still had 8 others hanging up) and paid only $16.00 for it - BARGAIN !!!!
i have been busy putting all my LOs into my new albums after i got three new ones last week.
i noticed that i have fallen into the "trap" of scrapping photos and not events and moments in our lives. so i am aiming to scrap more of the moments in our lives over the coming weeks/months. i love my "adored"; "loved"; "blessing" type LOs but i seem to be lacking LOs that tell the story of the moments in our lives.
and that's the things i want to remember and what the kids and hopefully, one day, the grandkids will want to know about.
who we were and the things we did.
anyways....time to get miss kait off to physie.
hope you have all had a wonderful tuesday.
remember to always to look for the things in your life that make you smile
~~ and let those you love, know that you do ~~
