Scrap happy

Hmm - wonder if I've used that title before? Never mind because it describes my mood perfectly. I've been having a lovely time these past few days - a blind scrap at Challenge Heaven:


I like blind scraps, you never quite know what you'll end up with!

And then there's been the cc at Wicked Princesses to keep me busy.

Challenge one was based a fab sketch by Krissy. You had to include the word 'new' so I scrapped Angus' earring - he got his ear pierced on Sunday and I scrapped this yesterday - how up-to-date am I??


Challenge Two continued the 'new' theme but this time you had to recycle or reuse something. I chose to re-scrap a pic and use only pp scraps. Does the five year old me remind you of anyone?

I first used the pic years ago for an off-the-page challenge. I think my style has evolved a bit since then!


Challenge 3 was by Kirsty and it was an OTP - I created a chart for Angus to remind him to do his shoulder exercises. I used the back of the 2009 school planner and stuck it to a huge (ugly) advertising magnet. I covered the boxes with a transparency so that he can use a whiteboard marker and then rub the ticks out at the end of each week. I think the nagging robot looks like me as I try to get that boy to do those stretches. Angus is not amused!


Have a wonderful Australia Day everyone - I hope you're doing something nice. We're off for a picnic dinner at the lake while we watch the entertainment - jet planes and jet skis followed by fireworks :) A loud but fun evening!

When NZ Grandma was here last week she gave the kids some Aussie tattoos - here's where they ended up this morning.

Also, if you're looking for some scrapping inspiration Bec is running another comp over at Scrapability Sketches - it was loads of fun last time.

TFSB :-)
