Bad Sketchy Princess

Gosh I have been slack - we're up to number four of this month's fabulous Wicked Princesses' sketches and I've only shared my first LO with you!

Remember to visit wp to check out each of the weekly sketches. I'd love to see one of your creations in the sketch gallery this month - don't forget there is a store voucher up for grabs :)

So here we go. Week two:


Week three:


Week four:

Check out that gorgeous little cupcake - you want one too? Then run to Mel's blog and check them and all of her other fab creations out - my prediction is she will be selling out fast but if you hurry she might just have some left...

Kraft It Up!

This month the KIU challenge was decorative edges so I decided to have a go - what do you think? The super-cheesy expression on Angus' face cracks me up - he and that dog equal trouble!

Here's another LO I did at the retreat. It started out being for a challenge (I've forgotten which one) but it look on a life of it's own so now it's a 'just because' LO. I read an article ages ago about Stay-cations - hence the title. I'm sure I've mentioned how I love that Americans have to have a name for everything and if one doesn't exist they'll make it up. Well, stay-cation is one of those words... I enjoy a good stay-cation!


Thanks for stopping by :)

Just because

Here are some more LOs that I did on the retreat. These ones are because I could - no theme, no comp - just for the sheer pleasure of scrapping :)

So that's everyone at the retreat. You can't really see it but in the top photo we're all wearing CAPA t-shirts with owls and motto 'who gives a hoot' :) That little owl was on my name tag - cute huh?!
Zoe makes the best mint choc-chip cupcakes!

Such a good looking dog - not sure he really likes his coat though...

Angus posing because I asked him too lol.

Now, if I told you I had still more retreat LOs to share would you believe me? Guess you'll just have to come back again to check ;)

Stuck

After seeing all of Jasmine's fabulous creations using Stuck?! Sketches! I decided to play along too. Since this month's sketch was a 8.5x11 I made a LO for my Birthday album at this rate I might finish it before I hit the next five-year milestone. Anyway, I flipped the sketch as it worked better with this photo of Craig and I karaoke-ing our way through Summer Loving from Grease.

But wait! I still have oodles more LOs from the retreat to share with you! So please pop by again soon(ish) :)

My retreat pick

I had the most fantastic time at the CAPA Retreat on the weekend and I got heaps of LOs done - 17 if I counted correctly! But for now I'm just going to share one. It's my take on the Get Picky inspiration challenge. I took my inspiration from the colours and circles.

How cool is that mega scallop punch? Thanks for letting me hog it all weekend Toni! Oh and just in case you fancy the bits and pieces I used here - it's the wp Hello Sunshine kit - I think this one is my all -time fav Krissy ;-)

I'll be back soon with some more LOs to share - thanks for stopping by :)

Monday sliding into Tuesday

Ok, so I know that Tuesday is almost over too but never let the truth get in the way of a good story! And now, without further ado, here is my take on this week's wicked sketch:


No scrapping to be had this week as I'm off to a retreat on the weekend and I need to get my stuff organised. But that means this time next week I should be offering up an enormous show and tell ;-) In the meantime, have a good one!
