A New Blog to Follow - And a RAK to Win!

I met an absolutely lovely lady today - Georgia Keays is a Scrapbooking Master with Scrapbooking Memories Magazine who presented a workshop today at the Papercraft Expo.  She very generously shared an hour of her time to describe her experiences in "getting published".  It was a wonderfully informative time, and I promised to start stalking her immediately as soon as I got home... so I am!

I checked out her blog and she is giving away a fabulous RAK right now:

Still going... July GDT Spot at Sketchy Thursdays...

Another day, another challenge.  I really liked the GDT sketch for July over on sketchythursdays.blogspot.com, so I decided to have a go at it.  The colours of the Kaisercraft Skull Girl line fit in well with my daughter's hat and big mischievous smile in the photo.  

I've also been playing with more bling and doodling and brought it into this design.  Very happy with how doodling around the design on the paper made it *POP* out.  

On to the next project... =D

Sketchy Thursdays... on a Tuesday...

Still trying to keep at the challenges and stretching my imagination, here is a layout for the latest Sketchy Thursdays call:

I've had the paper and the photo for a while - I have no idea why I haven't put them together before... but I think I'm happy with the overall result.  :)

Yay Me!

Just thought I'd post that my LO - Sisters by Marriage took the Runner Up prize over at Screen-2-Scrap!

Woohoo!  Time to pull out all my stuff and get some more challenges... this is starting to be fun!

Sketchy Thursdays on a Scrappy Mother's Day

Was directed by a friend to the Sketchy Thursdays blog and found their weekly sketch.  Inspired me to finally use these dodgy boogie boarding photos that have been kicking around for a while.  We had a fabulous time frolicking in the ocean on the Sunshine Coast (thanks Auntie Betty & Uncle Chris!) and I'm glad I finally found the information to scrap it!

Can't wait to see next Thursday's sketch!  http://sketchythursdays.blogspot.com/2010/05/56-sketchy-thursdays-challenge.html

Back at it again!

I'm back at the online challenges... And here are some of my latest entries:

I uploaded this one at Screen 2 Scrap (http://screen2scrap.blogspot.com/)  I love their concept:  Take a popular movie poster (this month was Fried Green Tomatoes), throw in some basic criteria and have at it!  Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

This one was for a sketch challenge at A 2 Z Scraplets (http://a2zscraplets.typepad.com/).  I love sketches because they give me just enough to boost my creative mojo, but I still have the freedom to make it my own.  The frangipani flowers in this layout were picked for me by my kids when we were at the koala sanctuary.  They are such a beautiful, delicate flower... just like me!  (*lol*)

Stay tuned... I'll try to upload more in the next little while...

Cheers!
