Sassy Scrappers moodboard and OUAS sketch

I love the colours in the July Moodboard at Sassy Scrappers!! Gorgeous!! And there is another very cool sketch at Once Upon A...Sketch with the theme of 'Numbers'!

       

Last week it was Emma's 29th birthday and I got a couple of gorgeous photos of her and Madison before going out to lunch. This time next year, on her 30th,  she will be a very busy Mum of 2!!

We have just had SENZ (Scrapbooking Expo New Zealand) and I picked up these beautiful Prima dies (the gold doily and lacy leaves), from Paper Wonderland. Paper Wonderland is a new online shop in New Zealand and Kristy has some gorgeous products, so check it out, here!!

Check out these two great challenges,the very inspiring DT samples and have a great day!

Cheers,

Sue :)

LO for Paper Secrets & Scrap and Play

Check out this great multi-photo sketch for the July 1st challenge at Paper Secrets. The  extra challenge word is 'SPLASH'.

They are teaming up their challenge and sponsoring Scrap and Play this month also, so you can pop your layout into both challenges!

S - stitching (yellow paper to background)

P - Prima paper (background chevron paper))

L - lacy die-cut (heart)

A - arrows

S - sequins

H - Heidi Swapp embellies

Best wishes everyone! We have had a very cold, wet, windy and wild week in the upper part of New Zealand after a long warm summer and autumn. The sudden change in weather has been hard on the little ones,with so many viruses suddenly springing up and my little grandson in these pics is at present in Starship Hospital with Bronchiolitis. He will be fine, but it is heartbreaking seeing him hooked up with tubes to help him breathe and feed!

Keep warm, Kiwis!!

123 Get Scrappy #12

The July Challenge is up at 123 Get Scrappy and it is a goodie!! The tic-tac-toe board is a little different this time, having only colours on the board. Easy peasy right?!

And my DT sample using the diagonal;

 Turquoise/Aqua, Yellow, Green

So check out the challenge, here, and maybe combine it with a sketch from your favourite sketch challenge blog!

Cheers,

Sue :)
