Hiya

I had the privledge of holding two challenges as part of Scrap Boutiques Fabulous Forties Cyber crop recently.......I had a ball thinking up clues for the girls and the challenges i set.

Challenge one was to complete a LO using a non coloured photo of a relative further back than your grandparents and tell a story about them.

The second was a birthday card challenge that i set .....make a card for a man in your life.

The girls did a fantastic job and i loved seeing what they came up with:)

Attatched are my samples:)

Inspired by.....

...............my friend Belinda:)

B i knew what i wanted to do with this pic as soon as i saw it......i just had to wait for my package to come from Chels at Scrap Boutique so i could do it....

Belinda also photoshopped the photo for me and it is now one of my favourites of dd ever:) Thanks B for the inspiration and the pshopping:)

I have called the layout *You are my dream come true* I never expected to get a little girl and she has made our life complete:) I love you Zo......and i love my bestest boy Leigh too:) Love ya Matt:)xx

Two more

Heres a couple LO i did lst night and this morning.

For the My Girl LO this was a challenge over at Scrap Therapys Cyber Crop being held this weekend....go on over and check it out!

We had to use things that came from the word

F....felt/flowers...i made my own felt flowers frim instructions by Helen Williams (i think)

R...ribbons

I..ink

E..eyelets...i used mine to hold my ribbon folded over for the flower stem

N..notepaper....scenic route for my title to sit on

D...doodling...only in the corners.....didnt want to wreck the lo :)

S..Spots...well they are on both the ribbon and the title box:)

The gorgeous photo of my DD was photoshopped by Belinda and she did eye sparkle......didnt she do a fab job! I love this pic of DD (which i took:)

The other LO was (very) loosely based on a blind challenge from back on March 19th also held at Scrap Therapy. I got these pics of DS printed last night and do you think i could work out how to scrap them.....thats where i love blind challenges in that they say to get 2 pieces of patterned paper and i usually grab what ever is about cause i dont have much of a stash and i love how this has turned out:)

Thanks for visiting....I hope you read my header guys:)

Happy Sunday Charxx
