Shearing Shed

It's been a busy week with shearing and school holidays....but i had some great photo opportunities to snap the grandies in the woolshed. Kids just love to bounce in the nice soft fluffy wool!! It brings back memories when i was a kid....what great fun!!

Maybe i will get a free day to scrap these memories soon.

Saturday is Scrapper-day

With the football finals all finished, it means that Saturdays are free for a little bit....so i actually indulged myself amongst all my new papers and SCRAPPED!!

Day OUT fishing....is using the lovely October Afternoon range 'Seaside'....very suitable for these fishing photos. This was such a great day, the boys caught heaps of fish and were so excited. Ethan said on the way home "Granny, that was the best day!!" ....oh how beautiful!!

Great Grand Father's day....is using the new Cosmo cricket 'Togetherness' papers....very nice colours!! A great opportunity to get photos recently when my parents were over....with all the kids!!

I was quite happy with my day scrapping....and better still i used new stuff!!!

Thanks for popping in...

A moment that needed scrapping for sure!

Parcel fun

This one didn't really need any journalling...as the title says it all!!

It was great having a sleep-over at Rachel's the night before Evan's birthday....or i would have missed all this early morning parcel fun and excitement. When you are a parent you don't quite see the funny side of 5.45ams like you do when you are a Granny..... i was all go with Evan, it was sooo much fun!! i see though i have missed placing a date....ooops, must go do that!!

Thanks for looking,

Vacation

When i re- found this Little Yellow Bicycle range 'Traveller' amongst my stash, along with all the yummy embellishments....i was inspired to paw thru my photos!! A very yummy range!

Oh, Luzern is a beautiful city to visit!! Would love to go back there one day!!

Currently - i am

This LO was for Meredith's 'currents' challenge over at escape2create and i usually find scrapping myself difficult.... 1. because normally i am the photographer so not in photos...and 2. journalling about one self does not come easy to me. But once i got started this page just fell into place. I found this photo...i had to crop it down, then fiddled with it by changing it to B&W, which gives a dodgey photo a different perspective.

I have been loving using my glimmermists lately too....just going gun-ho with them!

I enjoyed fiddling with all bits n pieces to put this page together!

last weeks scrapping

I did a couple pages last week....to complete a couple challenges over at escape2create. These have been really good to get me back into scrapping and inspired!

Firstly, a page with my penfriend from Berlin. We had such a great week with her and her partner....and seeing lovely Berlin!

Then i did something totally different for the sketch LO....i tried my hand at alot of glimmermisting to give the 'graffiti' effect to go with the pictures. I was totally taken in by the graffiti art throughout Berlin.

Have my parents here from Adelaide, so no scrapping this week....maybe next week i will get more inspired!

One day in Paris

Finally, finally i have scrapped a page!! It has been sitting on my desk for a week....nothing popping out at me....and finally i cut and pasted yesterday.

It was for a the 'page 100 challenge' over at escape2create blog....it was ideal for putting together a quick page with a few photos from our day in Paris..

Now to get inspired somehow to do some more!! This cold wet weather is not doing it for me,.....after 5 weeks of beautiful sunshine in Europe....i can hardly wait for spring to arrive here.

Oh so many photos.....and not sure where to start! :)
