Well I had a very busy scrappy weekend, Keely wanted to escape her brother and sisters for a while and venture into my scrappy world. We went out to DISCOVER SCRAPBOOKING and enjoyed a fabulous class by Jill Geraghty-Groves (fantastic lady) we did some distressing and stitching and inking and painting and had a ball. Must say Keely is hooked big time on the scrapbooking bug. Anyhoo, I completed this layout at the class. Haven't got any pics of my grandparents, so thought this was a fabulous find, Mum, Pop & Nanna Parsons, and all 7 of us kids, amazingly fairly clear after all these years (given this is a scan of a tiny original photo) think it was around 1973.
We then came home, and Keely whipped out her album and we sat and did a page together for her book. This is what we came up with (inspired by our class that day lol) We cut out these gorgeous flowers and popped them all up off the page, and oh those gorgeous flowers, I'm finding it harder and harder to share these with anyone but these are the ever gorgeous batik flowers from Green Tara that Robyn needs to order many more of for me :) LOL LOL LOL I'm totally addicted to them!
Then of course I felt the urge to sit down and scrap a page of Keely for my own album, I love her big blue eyes so love big piccies of her with them enormous peepers lol
Here is what I came up with. Just a dash of hand cutting on this page lol, wee bit of distressing, silver ink (glorious invention)
Now if only I can make it through the week........ come on Friday it's CROP NIGHT woohooooooo if you are in the area and want to come to one of these fabulous crop nights (fortnightly), ring ahead and book a spot, $10pp can't get better than that, we have so much fun there too :)
LOVE that last picture of the flower with the butterfly!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Jenny, the flower centres are just gorgeous aren't they? I think I have found my new addiction for a while lol They are a Creative Imaginations Product by Marah Johnson, a little bit exxy to buy them, but oh so fabulous :) Thanks for taking the time out to comment on my blog, I love to hear from my fellow crafters :) Take care, Cheers Kris.
