I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas full of fun, friends, family and festive cheer. I certainly enjoyed myself and relived the magic of Christmas through my children's eyes.
The layout I am sharing today has more of a summer feel to it and now I am just waiting for the weather to catch up with me
I have used Birds on a Wire ,Sakura Flowers and Design Elements by 2 Crafty on my page.
This week I am starting to feel festive so I have been playing with these gorgeous Christmas Chipboard pieces. Here I have used a 2 Crafty chip title Sitting on Santa's Knee and the Flourish Ornament Border…
We had a fabulous time this Halloween with the first party since we have had the kids…they had a ball and really got into the fun of it all…here is another 2 Crafty layout then I did using their fantastic scary chip
For my technique showcase at 2 Crafty this month I have decided to use the Grinning Pumpkins chipboard as a mask first on my background paper.
For my layout this month I have used the Scallop Circle Frame Small and Splats Puddles. I have to say I am definitely loving the big scallop circle frames…they add a real impact to a page…
Today I have played with a boy layout and got to use the awesome Flames which coordinate beautifully with one of my favourite paper ranges “extreme boy” an oldie but a goodie
I am having a fabulous time with the 2 Crafty product and I love how quite a few of their designs coordinate beautifully. For this layout I have used the Corner Moroccan and Ornate Dragonfly…
I decided to give The Color Room a go this month to try to revitalise the scrapbooking mojo…lucky me the first challenge for this month is just up my alley …my colours and type of sketch…so here is my take
This months Scrap the Boys challenge #1 is now up…
TRICK -They all have one…you know that trick they play on you whether it be copying everything you say or shadowing you so you don’t know where they are. Well here is your chance to scrap about it.
Or/
TREAT – scrap about your boy’s favourite thing …that one thing you know he will consider a huge treat. This could be his favourite chocolate, game, place or those special moments he gives you (your treat…cuddles in bed on a Sunday)
This month at Kraft It Up the challenge is a fabulous sketch …here it is and my take on it… pop over and check out the other DT’s creations.
First of the month and some more absolutely gorgeous chip pieces to share with you all. I have used on my layout “cute kid” the following 2 Crafty chip products Scallop Scallop Circle Frame Small and Oriental Flower Stems…
It is so hard to choose which gorgeous piece to use on my layouts out of the fabulous stash of 2 Crafty Goodies I have on my desk that I thought I would have a go at doing a layout with multiple items on it …I have to say I love how this one has turned out. In this layout I have used Mummy's Boy, Cog Border, Jenni's Bracket Frames and Buttons.

This months Kraft It Up Challenge is a room inspiration one…here is the room and here is my layout …
This month Scrap the Boys has some great Sponsors … well worth playing along with us to be in the running to win a pack from either Darkroom Door, What Is Old Is New or Lil Red Rocket…and I will say I have seen all the prize pack and wish I could win them… luckily one of our sponsors Darkroom Door supplied the design team will some fabulous products to play with and here is my layout…
This month my first layout share I have used some the new release chipboard products… I have chosen to play with the playground equipment set and also used 2 Crafty Alphas …
The playground equipment set has a see-saw, slide, swings and fort in it...I have used the see-saw on my page and sprizted it with Glimmermist.
Here is my take on the sketch as Annas Craft Cupboard …
In the layout “Lucky” the photo I used was taken at my sisters wedding and so the Design Elements where a perfect elegant addition to the page. She was married in the City Park which has a beautiful classic garden design and the Lamp Posts add to recreate that feel on the layout. 
…my denim swaps for the Scrap the Boys “Blue jeans” Swap and I have a little pack of varied denim prototypes that didn’t make the cut …lol.
If anyone would like them just pop me a comment and I will send them to you… if I get lots of responses I will randomly draw a recipient.
