Halloween fun and some stuff to share

2009-11-02T12:30:00.009+11:00

This is the first year the boys have really been interested in halloween, so we took them out Trick or Treating(to family and friends) and they had a ball.

Bailey dressed up as Harry Potter and Declan as a pirate. Here's some pics.

We got heaps of lollies ready for sat night and we didn't have anyone come at all. So we have all these lollies left. I sent the boys with some to give out at school today.

The boys are studying mini beasts at school ATM so Bailey needed to make a mini beast for a homework task so we made these spider bags on the weekend. They are so cute.

We made some spider cupcakes and little chocolate ones too. So much fun and very yummy.

Well, I have been trying to finish off all my odd bits and pieces lately. So here are some pics of a mini album I did at the AP retreat in May. I have been looking for ribbons for it, but still haven't found any that sit right. So I thought I would just take photos as it is.

So The SCRAP YOUR PANTS OFF comp at AP is up to week 3 and I have announced my challenge. I'll share once I have finished my sample layout.

The gallery is looking awesome, full of fantastic layouts.

We are also having mini challenges. Mine is to create a TREAT bag for any occasion, the only TRICK is it has to have an animal on it. My sample is the speckled spider bag above.

This card is from the mini challenge week2. A card using inchies. I have rolled my inchies.

The boys and I made this pen holder for their dad for fathers day. Cute hey!

So I was pretty excited the other day I got my first magazine from my SM subscription in the mail. Then I was extra excited when I opened up to this page.

I am so happy with how it came up. I just LOVE it.

Anyway that's it for now, I should have a few layouts to share soon.

See ya

Quick update.

2009-09-17T23:16:00.019+10:00

I have a few layouts to update and a heap of photos to share.

At ARTYPANTS the paper of the month for September is the Little yellow bicycle Zac's life Bullseye Red. It is available in the shop now. Here is a layout I have created using it.

The AP cybercrop was on the weekend. These are the layouts I did.

This is my sample layout for a Spring themed challenge with spring or sprung in the title or journalling and handmade spring embelies.

I did this layout for Kerry's challenge. It was an inspiration challenge using a gorgeous pic from Pumpkin Patch. My inspiration was the colours, flowers and polka dots in the pic. You also had to use something old from your stash, I used this BG pp.

I did this layout for Jodies quote challenge. You also had to use non scrappy products. I used dotty mesh and woodgrain contact.

Jodie had a sketch challenge too. I hope to finish it at a crop tomorrow. Half way through I decided to try it as a double.
Oh well that's it for scrapping ATM. I am in the middle of a few things, so I'll share them next time.

Got a few photos to share from the last few months

Firstly Declan's 6th birthday. We took a friend to Taco Bill for Dinner they had a ball.

Bailey's 8th birthday. He took a friend to the Pancake parlour for lunch it was great. Check out this cake. It's a chock pancake cake. It was SOO yum.

Some dress ups. For book week Decky wore Bais Mr bump which was easy for me. Bailey dressed up as Harry Poter.

And the boys have been studying olden days this term. We went on an excursion to Coal creek it was fantastic. Yesterday they had an olden days dress up and activity day, it was fun.

Bailey had his first real piece of homework this week. We had to make a mega machine. He made a Rocket Rod out of boxes and lids etc. Declan had to get in on the action too.

Well that was as bit longer than I expected.

Back soon with some more scrapping.

Thanks for looking

Suzi

Lots to update.

2009-09-07T21:28:00.024+10:00

Hey there, well things have been pretty busy around here. Anyway here's an update before I move on to the here and now.

I have been working on the Artypants november 2008 kit. This kit has been re-launched as it was a pretty popular one. I have loved playing with this kit. I still have one layout I haven't finished yet, I'll load it later.

Anyway here are my layouts so far

I have always enjoyed doing the challenges over at Puzzlesketches so I am SO HAPPY to now be a part of the CT. Here is my first layout as part of the CT using the current pieces.

Some other layouts using puzzlesketches pieces

I was so surprised a few weekends ago when Declan asked me if he could do scrapbooking anyway of course I said yes. Here is his layout.

This is a layout using the ARTYPANTS paper of the month for July also using the criteria of the AP june winter challenge.

This layout was for the AP june quote challenge

I did this layout using the roadmaps June sketch.

These next few layouts are from the July AP cc

That's it for now I'll be back soon with some quick updates.

Keep an eye out for some competition details from ARTYPANTS coming soon. Would you like to know how you can have 3 artypants delivered to your door for free?

SCRAP YOUR PANTS OFF!!

2009-10-25T20:17:00.007+11:00

Well the competition is underway now and the gallery is filling with gorgeous entires for week 1. Challenge 2 has gone up it is a pretty cool one, based on a comic strip. I can't wait to have a go at it.

Jodies challenge for week 1 was to include something old something new something borrowed something blue(there were a few extra catches too).

I had so much fun doing my layout, not the best photo but here it is.

My old is a photo corner, buttons word strips and scraps of Hambly.

New is Sassafras lass papers.

I borrowed from a layout by Kerry Snell and my blue was my monster, photo corner and buttons.

I did these next 4 layouts using a new ribbon pack coming to the shop soon at ArtyPants. I also used some dotted swiss bazzill(my favourite thing to use ATM), sassafras lass papers, buttons and American Craft alphas supplied by ArtyPants.

I still had some ribbon left over too. Look out for the packs in the shop soon.

This is a layout I did just for the fun of it. I love these photos of the boys from a recent dress up day at school.

That's all I have for now.

Thanks for looking

See ya

Artypants cybercrop layouts

2009-10-14T21:39:00.004+11:00

I have done a heap of scrapping this weekend. For the AP cybercrop and also finishing off some DT stuff. I can't share all of it yet.

These are my cybercrop layouts

Bec set a challenge to choose an ad and do a layout drawing inspiration from it. Here is my ad and layout. I love this ad. Might have to use it again I think.

Kerry A had a challenge to scraplift one of her gorgeous layouts and also use song lyrics. Here's what I came up with.

Kerry S set a recipe challenge. You had to use 4 different pp's, a flower, a heart, a rub-on, ribbon and a photo with at least subjects in it. Here's my layout.

This last layout is my final layout using the artypants re-launched november kit. Had so much fun with this kit.

Heaps of layouts to share

2009-06-13T13:33:00.008+10:00

Ok I have a heap to share. These first few projects are what I did at he Crop for Kids (pretty pathetic I know, but I hadn't scrapped for ages and I wasn't really sure where to start) I also did half a kaiser clock which I still haven't finished but most importantly I had alot of FUN!

Artypants DT call is over and the new DT members have been announced.

Congratulations and a huge welcome to Laura and Kerry and to the guest DT members Gayatri, Megan and Kerry Snell. I look froward to seeing more of their fantastic creations in the future.

This Layout is one I created as a sample lo for challenge 1 of the DT call it was using an add for inspiration.

I love the Rusty Pickle brassed knuckles papers. I have used them in the next lo and few others below. I loved playing with them.

This was a AP cc challenge to use bling and buttons.

This was a follow the leader run by Jodie for the AP cc.

These next 4 layouts are what I did at the AP retreat. I know that is not much but I am pretty happy with them. I also did a mini mirror album of my wedding photos, but it needs some finishing touches and some repair. Some of the emebelies fell off. I am guessing it is because I had had a bit to drink by this stage and stuck some of my pages upside down. DOH!

It was a great weekend though. Thanks Jodie and Judy for another great retreat.

This lo was for the scrap the DT challenge. I lifted a lo of Jodies which I just adore. Had alot of fun with this one.

The next 2 lo's are using the AP June add on kit. It and the main kit are both available online now. They are just gorgeous full of beautiful bright products.

I have used a piece of felt from the kit as the base of this layout.

These 2 layouts are my most recent layouts just for me I love the photos in both of these layouts I'll probably put them in my BOM. Same goes for the 2 above layouts.

Well that's it for now, I know that was alot but I think that is almost all my scrapping from this year. Now I'll just have to keep up to date.

TFL

A quick photo update.

2009-05-30T16:45:00.015+10:00

Hey there, here's some pics of what we have been up to lately. I'll be back with a scrappy update soon.

We took a train into the city for the day a few weeks ago and had some Japanese for lunch and did a bit of shopping etc. We also took some ace pics of the kids. How disgusting are these jackets? (but I do love the pics).

We have been painting and redecorating our lounge room. My scrap room has been painted, I just need to finish reorganising it and it will be done. We also got a new fish tank. It is so AWESOME. I could watch it all day. It's so relaxing.

Our fish tank was a second hand set up so it came with fish. The boys were so excited that it had two clown fish(Nemo and Marlin).But we have added some extras now. We got a dory(blue tang) and a gorgeous blue star fish.

I have given in to my LOVE for Pandora and got a necklace. I just love it.

Yertle the Turtle is happy in his new home. He was originally in a tank when we got him from Kinder. He now has a pond, paved area and garden to wander around in. He loves the camera too. He sticks his head right in the lens. LOL.

We LOVE meringues. I have been experimenting with different shapes and sizes. These are our meringue monsters we made for easter.

Some of my Favourite photos from easter

The boys love these. K-nex. They got some for christmas and we play with them all the time.

Declan is a big school boy now and is going along well. I haven't posted any pics yet so here's some. Bailey was made the SRC member for his grade. He made this suggestion box for his class(with a bit of help). Declan made this cute elephant mask at school.

Anyway I'll be back soon with some layouts and some AP updates(lot's going on). I need to take some photos of my layouts. I left it too late today and they were dodgy.

See ya soon

Yeah I had my birthday on Sunday, I turned 35 and feel about 55 at the moment!LOL

We had a lovely day at home, DH was at work so we stayed home and watched the chipmunks and just chilled. We went out to Hogsbreath cafe for dinner. It was yum! The boys had such a great time and loved the food. The boys gave me a long arm stapler, which I had wanted for ages. So that was cool. It was from office works. Rick gave me some dvd's one was spicks and specks which I love! Anyway that's that for another year, next week is Dh's B'day and then soon Declan. I better get shopping!

I couldn't believe this, but I got an acceptance for Scrapbooking Memories, My LO me and my monsters! I was so excited, but I just couldn't register it, being so soon to my first one.LOL

Here is my Lo for the june Aussie scrap music blog. I loved the film clip this month, so much inspiration. Here is my Lo. I did a double because I had too many ideas for a single.

OOOH! I just got my kit from Embellished that I won at ASM in May. It looks fantastic, I can't wait to play with it!

Some Keep n the memories news. I was waiting for my first kit to come out, which it did today to share that I am now a permanent DT member at KTM. I am so happy and enjoying working with Toni and Nic!

2008-07-18T11:50:00.009+10:00

Just a quick one to post my DT work for Artypants. Artypants are celebrating their 1st birthday in their new store in Cranbourne next weekend. To celebrate there are 3 kits this month. Aswell as the main monthly kit there is a girls and boys kit. They all look fantastic. They will be up on the Artypants site soon, but Jodie has her LO's for the main kit on her blog(Pretty Cool) and they are available for purchase now. I have been playing with the boys kit and WOW, it's so much fun!

Here's what I came up with.

A card

And I used this little canvas from my own stash to use some of my leftovers

Artypants are also celebrating their birthday next weekend with a birthday bash at the friday crop and all weekend with a BIG SALE and demonstrations, face painting and freebies. Come on in for some fun and bargains.

I am in the middle of a few challenge LO's, so I'll be back with them later.

Lot's of bits to share.

2008-10-02T16:00:00.010+10:00

I didn't think I had done that much scrappin lately. But when I started to upload them I realised how much I have done.(Over the last few months).

I have been trying a few new thinks lately. I have been doing 8.5 x11 Lo's for some family albums and have done a heap of cards.

These first two Lo's are for Nic and Toni's new challenge blog from Aug and Sept. Visit it here. PUZZLESKETCHES.

Such a unique idea for a challenge, I love it.

The next few are from challenges in August.

These were using products from a swap.

The next few Lo's and cards were a DT project for KTM using the Hello sunshine range from Cosmo Cricket. LOVE these papers.

Here is my stuff I did with the KTM september kit. Love these colours.

And some more cards

I've got my most recent DT project for Artypants to share too, but I need to edit my photos. So I'll share it next time.

TFL

LO share

2008-10-29T21:10:00.007+11:00

Not much going on ATM, just a quick share.

Artypants had a girls night in on friday to raise money for Breast Cancer. It was a great night packed full, lots of fun, raffles and I managed a bit of scrapping. Lot's of yummy cupcakes too.

I did a pink LO. It was a bit of a struggle to try and use so much pink, but in the end I actually enjoyed it. It was for a pink challenge that AP were running in conjunction with the girls night in.

This is a Lo for Octobers puzzlesketches

These were my two final LO's for the Stuck CT call

Got a few bits and pieces nearly finished. I'll share them next time.

TFL

See ya

My first sketch

2008-11-05T20:54:00.008+11:00

Hi there,

I am so excited to say that I am now part of the Creative Team at STUCK.

I have really enjoyed using Sara's sketches during the mini comp. I am happy to be part of such a great team and love seeing what everyone comes up with each week. Also so cool to be on the team along with Jodie.

Here is my LO from my first sketch as a CT member.

These are just a few of my recent LO's

I kind of scraplifted my own LO "I think I love you" for this LO. I just wanted to do something with this photo of DH.

Well not much else to share ATM.

Thanks heaps for your recent comments, as always I really appreciate your kind words.TFL.

See ya

Quick LO share

2008-11-13T17:58:00.006+11:00

Not much to share this week. Just a few Lo's and cards. I have been sick most of the week. So I am so far behind with housework and pretty much everything.

Here is my LO for sketch #64 for STUCK

I had so much fun working with this sketch.

This Lo and these cards are my most recent DT projects for ARTYPANTS

I have got lot's of bits and pieces on the go ATM I am finding it had to just stick with one thing and get it done lately.

Thanks for looking

Thanks again for all your lovely comments!

See ya

Suzi

OMG!!!! I didn't realise it had been so long.

2009-01-20T15:17:00.008+11:00

I don't quite know where to start. I might need to do this one in segments I think.

I'll start with christmas, It was wonderful. The boys had a fantastic time and got so many presents. I really need to do a clean out of the toy room.

The whole month of December was pretty busy with parties and school and kinder special days etc.

I hope you all had a wonderful christmas.

Anyway here are some of our favourite photos.

New Years was pretty quiet, we just went out for dinner early in the night with the kids. We went to an all you can eat, so they had a ball. So did the BIG boy of the family. Then we went back to my sisters and played guitar hero.

Bailey broke his elbow on the trampoline. He didn't fall off(it has a net) he just landed the wrong way. It's not a huge break but he has a back slab(half cast) on his arm. He is managing fine but it has been a bit of a bummer with the holidays. He should get it off next tuesday which is just in time for school, which he is very stressed about just incase he has to go to school with it on.

We have just been chillin' for the holidays. Rick has had time off so we have tried to get some stuff done around the house and jut relaxed at home with the kids. We took the kids into the city for lunch at China town which was alot of fun. Other than that we have just been having BBQ's at the park and going out for dinner etc but they seem to be enjoying being at home. We went to see the sand sculptures at Frankston beach, but we couldn't believe how busy it was so we did something else instead, we will still go before the holidays are over, they look fantastic

Both the boys are so excited about school starting. It is both scary and exciting for me. I thought it was bad when Bailey went but I think it's worse this time because Declan's the baby.

But on the other hand think of all the time I will have to myself.

As far as scrapping goes I haven't really done that much over the last few months. I have only been doing my STUCK LO's. I am hoping to get back into it over the next few weeks as school goes back and things settle down a bit. I'd like to start getting some albums together and doing some challenges too.

Unfortunately Artypants has closed it's shop front, but will be relaunching the internet store soon. I already miss being able to pop in and pick up my bits and bobs and off course have a chat. But look forward to catching up with everyone soon.

I have had a chance to do a massive clean out in my scrap room though and it is started to look really good and most things have a place now which makes it a bit easier to find things.

Here's my most recent stuck lo's

Oh well, I think I made it all in one post without going on too much.

I'll make sure not to leave it so long between posts next time.

See ya

Suzi

Such a bad bad blogger!!!

2009-05-02T23:47:00.013+10:00

Anyway I don't have any excuse for my absense. Except that I haven't really had much scrappin to share lately. Just not really getting anything done. Hopefully I'll get back into it now.

I am feeling inspired ATM. Started a follow the leader ran by Jodie at AP and am starting to get all sorts of ideas. So hopefully I put them on paper. Jodie is running a number of cool challenges from the cybercrop and even if you didn't make the crop you have until monday night to complete them to be in the running for a RAK. Why not have a look.

AP is also having a DT competition. you have until sunday night to register and the comp starts on monday. You can find the details at Artypants

or on the new AP blog

Jodie has updated the shopping cart with some cool Hambly and Basic Grey products aswell as the May kit. It is gorgeous a nice mix of natural tones and blue, Jodie has done some lovely sample Lo's too.

I had a play with the March kit. Here are my sample Lo's etc

I loved using this kit. Isn't that Rose Moka paper gorgeous the kit also had heaps of Buzz and bloom chipboard gotta love that.

This is a Lo I did a while ago using the puzzlesketches pieces

These are my most recent Stuck Lo's don't think I have already posted them.

Anyway I'll leave it at that for the moment. I'll pop back with some photos to update everything else I have been up to.

See ya

TFL

I'll try not to disappear for so long this time.

Just a few things to share

2008-10-19T20:18:00.006+11:00

I have been doing a bit of scrapping lately, but a few of my projects are not finished. So I'll have to share them next time.

I went to paperific with Jodie on friday and had a great day. I got lot's of nice stuff. I didn't find a few things I was hoping to get but still had fun.

Here are some pics of my recent DT project for AP a mini book all about Bailey now that he's 7.

These are some LO's I have done for a recent CT call at STUCK SKETCHES. We had to do LO's based on the current stuck sketch for 4 weeks running. I have just completed my third Lo but can't share it yet.

Bailey had another dress up day on friday, this time it was fairytales. He went as Captain Hook, no sewing this time though we just put bits that we already had together and

I got a hook and hat from the $2 shop. Declan got in on the action as usual wearing a Loch Ness monster hat my sister gave him(he was a crocodile).

Here's some pics. I can't wait to scrap them.

Well that's about it for now. I'll probably have more to share next week.

Thanks For looking

See ya

OMG I have been so slack.

2008-09-29T21:45:00.011+10:00

I have had so much going on the last few months, I have been so slack with my blog and scrapping in general.

Anyway I'll start with our holiday to Tasmania. We just got back and had a heap of fun. We flew into Hobart , stayed there for the first night then went to Devonport for the next two nights. We could see the Spirit of Tasmania arrive and leave each morning and night from our Accommodation it was gorgeous. We spent our last night on a farm which was meant to be 5 minutes from the Launceston airport but turned out to be 30 minutes away in the middle of nowhere. But the kids loved it.

We went to the Cadbury factory and some mazes and a few other attractions but it was just a nice break away. The boys loved flying, however Bailey wasn't too happy when he saw the safety demonstration and stressed out when they announced to turn off electronics. He ended up dropping his leapster cause he was so concerned that I hadn't turned off my camera and Declan's ipod. LOL.

Here are some of my Favourite photos.

Well I mentioned Declan's teddy bear's picnic birthday in my last post, Bailey has since turned 7. He had a bowling party and just loved it. It was alot of fun, Decky ended up being sick so it was a bit hectic. I ended up making him a krispy kreme cake. Yummo.

Bailey had his first book parade at school and wanted to dress up as Mr bump. That was fun. I bought a sewing machine and made him a costume. It turned out pretty good considering I can't sew, Bailey was happy anyway.

Anyway I think I have gone on enough for one post.

I'll be back with some Lo's later this week.

See ya

Suzi

A birthday party and some Lo's to share.

2008-08-03T17:36:00.004+10:00

Hey all,

Well I have just put my house back together after Declan had a teddy bears picnic for his 5th birthday. It was only little but they had so much fun. So I am ready for a quick dinner and an early night.

We took Declan to Build-a-bear during the week for his birthday it was fantastic. The boys had a ball. I'll pop back with some photos tomorrow.

I have a few LO's to share.

This was my LO for ASM

This months clip was by Delta Goodrem, I found it a bit harder than usual. I have used the crown, lyrics from the song and the bling as my inspiration.

I love these photos of my niece at her deb. This is not a good photo, best I could get though.

I did this LO for a challenge at AP

It was a challenge set by Andrea using a pagemaps sketch. I loved this sketch.

This was a LO I did for the monthly sketch challenge at KTM

It was designed by Delys Cram. Cool sketch.

This was for another challenge at KTM, You had to use stamps and watercolour pencils. I found this quite difficult, it took me a few turns to get it right.

This is a LO I did using the sketch for July at Roadmaps aussie pubcalls.

LOVED this sketch too. It would seem that I love all sketches. LOL. Sketches and buttons seem to be the flavour of the month.

KTM had there CC last night, It was a fun night with a heap of great challenges, there are some great prizes up for grab and you have until the 10th of August to upload them to the gallery. Go take a look.

My challenge was an inspiration challenge. I have taken inspiration from a coke add I found on the net. Pretty cool, with heaps of great ideas. This is my sample LO.

Well I think that's about it for now, if I have forgotten anything I'll add it when I upload some party photos, I think I got some great ones Declan is such a poser.

TFL

WOW! What a weekend!!!

2008-05-30T10:30:00.005+10:00

Well the Artypants retreat was last weekend and it was fantastic. A weekend full of fun, scrapping and lots and laughs.

Congratulations to Jodie and Judy on such a successful first AP retreat. Thankyou so much for an amazing weekend. I am already looking forward to next year!

It was at camp manyung. It was great. We had a whole table each so we all had plenty room to spread out. The rooms were great and the food was fantastic.

There were lots of great challenges to take part in and the musical scraps was so much fun. Had never done this before.

Judy decided to paint Bec's face, so then we all added our little touch. We also used the photos for a same photo challenge which was fun. The LO's all turned out so different.

So I didn't get that many LO's done, but am happy with the ones I did do. I'm going to take photos now so I'll add them later.

See ya Suzi

Back with some LO's I did on the weekend

This was a tricky one. Andrea's challenge had to have a photo of yourself, say the word beautiful, be monotone, tell the story of the photo and have 5 things you like about yourself. This is my LO happy.

This is my LO for the same photo challenge of Bec after she was scrapbooked.

This is a Lo I did for the scraplifting challenge. This is a lift of one of Jodies fantastic LO's.

I did the next 3 LO's using some of the stuff from the fantastic goody bags we got on arrival. Thanks Jody and Judy.

This is a LO I did for a sample LO for the retreat. Loving these papers.

I think that's all I finished, I have some finishing touches to add to a few more Lo's.

Anyway that's it for now.

WOW what a few weeks it has been. I have got so much to share. A few really exciting things and a few LO's.

I got it! That email I have been hoping for! "We want to publish your LO". I got my first acceptance today from scrapbooking creations. It is my Bailey @ 6 LO. It was so cute, I got home and Rick was acting a bit weird. I was worried something was wrong until I saw the massive smile on his face. Then I noticed the computer had two little bunches of balloons on it. Then when I touched it my acceptance letter appeared! LOL

I got my dream car last week. Ever since I saw the new holden ute in the green I wanted a car in that colour. I really wanted a lancer and then one day I found it a lancer in the holden green. Here's some photos I took at Sky high in the dandenongs and the frankston beach.

My other exciting news was that I won the first challenge at Aussie Scrap Music. I have won some really cool prizes too. This was my LO of Rick I uploaded a few posts ago. I had a heap of fun doing this LO and am loving this months clip by Chasing Bailey.

Well I've got a few Lo's to share now.

Here is a LO I did on the AP retreat I missed it last time.

The KTM CC was fantastic. Alot of fun and games and some pretty cool challenges.

This was my sample LO for my handmade challenge. You had to use no store bought embelies or alphas. I had alot of fun with this and the entries were fantastic.

These are my cards for Michelle's challenge. You had to make 6 cards using 1 pp, cardstock and embossing.

This was my LO for Delys's one manufacturer challenge. I used all BG products.

This was for Kerryn's Nursery Rhyme Challenge. I had this one started ages ago, it gave me an excuse to finish it off.

This was for Nic's inspiration challenge The inspiration I took from her gorgeous LO were vintage, white rub ons, BG pp and two flowers. This was my first vintage LO and I found this pretty difficult, but I quite like the end result.

I think that's all for now, I've got some stuff I can't share yet and some other stuff I need to take photos of, so I'll leave them for next time.

See ya
