Sweet Grunge

I've completed another two LOs for Challenge Heaven for this month. This one is for the song challenge - Hush little baby - you also had to include pearls. I've wanted to scrap this photo for ages and this seemed like the perfect challenge :) Although the photo was a bit of a joke, Zoe's constant crying wasn't! The library card behind the pic holds the tale of her crying, our combined pain and the final diagnosis of severe reflux. I wanted the LO to be grungy to play on the earmuffs but not too rough as it was essentially a baby LO. When Jasmine saw this she coined the phrase 'sweet grunge'. I thought it was a perfect description and exactly the look I was hoping for - thanks Jas!


This next one was for the colour challenge – use purple and teal – and a decorative edge. Us in NZ back in March 2004.


And now for my wp Interior 4. Check out the inspiration Kirsty provided:

Cool huh?! And here is my take on it:


That little face belongs to my friend's gorgeous new son Ole Benjamin. He's wearing the designer beanie I gave him :)
Oh and in exciting news before I finish - I won a little prize for having the Purple Pumpkin button here on my blog! Thanks so much Sam - mwah!!
Catch you on the flipside ;-)

Finally life has slowed down a bit and I have taken the advantage of it and am out blog jumping, visiting old friends :-)

The Sweet Grunge layout is so cool - love the stamping and the color combo. I didn't see the earmuffs until you told the story - thank you for telling!
