August

No post for a while... sorry...

I've just managed to keep my scrapbooking up to date during these stuffy hot days.

Been obsessing about the upcoming holiday too...

Really hope to get into a good blogging routine soon...

Beautiful view.

Garden Goddess

My Mom finally got her new shed! So she's/we've been busy painting and re-felting the roof etc. She wanted me to get lots of photographs of her hammering the felt into the roof!

It was a lovely sunny day and the roofing felt gets all nice and warm... heavenly lying against it...

I've been trying to remember what I learnt at the retreat a few months ago and try out new techniques.  I was washi tape as borders and used a hexagon template to draw shapes - some were covered and trimmed to size with washi tape (does that make sense) and some were stitched.

The white AC Thickers don't tend to stay stuck with me so I put one stitch on each letter to hold it there.

The photograph is a flap with journaling on the other and this group of other photographs.

So excited about doing this Camp Scrap class next month. I usually don;t finish online classes so hoping the summer warmth and sunshine will help me scrap! This class I'm not sure about... I think it would be good to get more/better use out of my phone camera....

Sarah's Card Sketch Challenge

 Finally got around to reading Life Of Pi and thought this would be good for a simple layout for the challenge at Sarah's Cards. I really want to see the dvd now!

 This is the 28th book I've read this year.  The "this years book #" is just below and free for your personal use.

The chevron stamp border, I carved out of a rubber stamp a few weeks ago.  I really like making my own stamps now and then.

Project Life FREEBIE Cards

 What do you think? Trying to find my 'voice'...

Both are FREE for your personal use.
