Hi everyone,
Whilst looking through my Mums old photo's I came across this one of her and her sister and their nephew feeding the lambs. I really love the photo, it really shows the country life they had, the old shed in the background and the chooks in the background feeding
I have used Kaiser Base PP, I am loving this range, so much you can do with it
there's that Chevron stamp Lizzy :)
I am quite liking the kaiser clear leaves as well. The button is from Craftqueen
I have added coffee stained canvas, some muslin and old lace, trying to keep with the old world , vintage theme.
Thank you for popping by, please let me know you called. It has been a perfect Autumn day here, just glorious
I live in Orange, we grow........Apples!
Have a wonderful Weekend and I hope the weather is glorious for you as well
Love and Sunshine

Hello,
I Love the sketches over at Scrapfriends http://blog.scrapfriends.com.au/ and this one is no
exception
I used the Kaiser "In the Attic" range
The photo's are of my Mum and her sister. Mum is the one on the top step
quite stylish back in the day. I have done lots of layering
Also I did this layout with left over papers from the Marigold range.
This is my husbands mum, she died when they were very young, she was only 40 when she passed away, so this layout is for him.
Thanks for popping by, hope your week is super fabulous
Sunshine and Happiness

Hello,
There is another fabulous new challenge site http://scrapyourstory.blogspot.com.au/ and I was fortunate enough to be the first Guest Designer. The criteria for the first challenge is simple ~ to use just one photo, so no excuses for not joining along
This is the layout I chose to do using the Kaiser base PP, I love this range of Papers, so versatile. I added lots of stamping, my idea a brick wall with graffiti. This is our middle son when we spent four days with him in Rome whilst he was living overseas. It was a special four days for us
I have used the chevron stamp ( one of my faves) from
scrapfriends and the Pink Paislee Artisan words and arrows again from scrapfriends
My journalling is on the tag, slipped in the side
I have made a little paper bag envelope that I have used as a layer that the travel tag slides into
Thanks for popping by, please join in the challenge over at scrap your story and don't forget the new challenge will be posted at Orange Paperie http://orangepaperieandco.blogspot.com.au/ in the next couple of days AND we have a new Design Team Member ...... the lovely Cheryl http://cheryl-mylittlecorneroftheworld.blogspot.com.au/ , so please pop over and make Cheryl welcome.
I had a lovely afternoon having lunch at the cutest little Italian Restaurant , delish food, great company and a bottle of red. I really think tomorrow should be declared a public holiday, because I don't want to go to work
Hope the coming week is a fantastic one for you all
Happiness and Peace

Hello scrappy friends,
today I am very excited as the new challenge at color me scrappy http://color-me-scrappy.blogspot.com.au/ has been posted with a new Design team and I am one of them! :) So I would love you to pop over take a look and see what all the lovely DT Members have created, and join in with us on the challenge
which is......
Use this sketch
and to use these colours
The bright cheery colours straight away reminded me of Fiji and its beautiful people
The title says " Friendships made under the Fijian sun. This was a farewell ceremony for Alison a Australian girl who had been managing the resort while the two Australian boys that normally ran it had a break. We were so lucky to be part of a few ceremonies and Karva celebrations whilst there, the Fijians love to celebrate, they just love life.
I have used lots of misting, which of course makes the cardstock go crazy no matter what you do, oh well adds character. Texture paste with the Kaiser wheat mask and made my sun from a misted paper doily.
Thanks for popping by, please pop over and check out the challenge and join in, I will be waiting to see your layouts there!
Hope it's not to windy where you are, feel like Dorothy and Toto here, might get blown away
Happiness and Peace

It has turned quiet cold here tonight we have the heater on ! Looks like goodbye Summer. I hope you are all keeping warm and dry, good weather for scrapping or curling up with a good book or movie.
I created this layout from one more piece of Pattern Paper and some of the leftovers from my last layout I posted
my sister in law and me being a little silly on the beach.
I have rolled the striped pp under the photo and added perfect pearls along the top of the banner, I came along both these great ideas whilst blog hopping.
A little bit of Lacey netting and muslin for a beachy feel
