whats been happening?

Hi Fellow Bloggers,

I have been a bit slack with the blogging, not sure if I have anything interesting to tell most of the time, but anyhoo I'll do a post and try not to bore you all to tears!
I have a layout to share that I did for a Challenge at http://challengeheaven.ning.com/ the challenge was to do a layout of your girlfriends and NO PINK, so........I scrapped my two crazy scrapping friends Annette http://annetteedmonds.blogspot.com/ and Kim http://lifeisabalancingactx8.blogspot.com/ the pic was taken when we all went to Brisbane this year for the Expo. They are both super talented and gorgeous girls, so glad that scrapping brought them into my life :)


The little girl is from LRR http://lilredrocketbuttons.blogspot.com/ and the date stick is from My2Angelshttp://www.my2angels.net/ The Friends transparency was from a RAK

Oh and another layout that I have to share is a layout I did for a challenge at the Boxx http://www.theboxx.scrapboxx.com/ The challenge was to use Time anyway you chose in your layout and this is mine


So I used the beautiful Free PP in the current issue of Australian Scrapbook Ideas Mag, they are really, really gorgeous, and they just happen to have clocks on them (so I had to buy the mag , right?) it is also filled with great tips and techniques. and I used a verse from a song & used Crackle paint on some clock hands to frame the pic and made a tag and flower to add. The pic is with my Best friend of over 30 years once again at Brisbane at the expo.
and some closies




I am currently working on a layout for Once Upon A Sketch.

And Please pop over to Scrap that Song http://scrapthatsong.blogspot.com/ and join in our challenge for the month. We would really love to see your interpretations of the songs for the month. We have announced the winners for the last two moths and Mr Linky is now working correctly thanks to our Technical Guru ..... Miss Annette.

Today I went and watched my Granddaughter dancing in the eisteddfod, the guys went to the Local Footy and our guys won the Grand Final and I have my DD home for a few days and she is not well (and wants me to wait on her hand and foot) don't you love them ( and a little secret , yes we do)

PS Today we should spare a thought for all those that lost their lives and lost love ones in 9/11
Just no words to adequately say for the horror and sadness of that day.

Anyway lovelies have a wonderful week and lets all see if we can make this world a little better, even if its just a smile or kind word

Please let me know you dropped by and oh how do you like my new blog banner? Paris of course !


Cheers
Mary x
