CSI challenge

My friend Sandy asked me to join http://csicolorstoriesinspiration.ning.com A new challenge site. There is anew challenge every week and its all about colour, journalling and elements. It certainly made me think and I am quite pleased with what i came up with

The colours we had to use were lilac pink cream gold/brown and grey. The journalling is on a tag and i used the second person and I used a tag sheer ribbon a doily  and circular elements.This is my youngest daughter Helen and myself at her graduation for high school.
The heat wave has finally broken and today is a much more comfortable day at 33C. Unfortunately it is also the last day of my holidays so back to work tomorrow. Meantime I am going to check out the next CSI challenge.
Bye for now

We are in the middle of a heat wave in Perth so i decided to stay home in the air conditioning and have a go at making some cards. I have never been big on making cards as they usually end up in the bin but having sooo many scraps i thought i might as well us some up on cards. I also got some punches and die cuts that i haven't used in ages.

 

I also made this for my daughters 22nd birthday

and this one for my baby's 18th birthday     

Tomorrow is going to be just as hot and it's Australia day, so having some people over for lunch, watching the cricket and maybe get some more scrapping done.

                                                 

Daring to scrap

This year I am going to try and do some on line challenges. I spied this one daring to scrap on Rachel's blog.

The challenge is to use paper scraps to make a back ground. Here is my take on this.

This s my gorgeous nephew who loves me taking his photo. I had a lot of fun piecing these scraps together for this lo and am quite pleased with the results.

Now to clean up my desk and get stuck into all those projects i have got lined up.
