It's that time again over at Scraphappy Kat's. I was at the Craft Retreat this weekend and got heaps done, this was the first one of the day to be tackled. The sketch this week was:

 

No other requirements needed. I scrapped a friend  doing a little dance at the opening of the Retreat last year, she was playing the curse game. The curse game is SO funny, we had such a ball. Here is my entry for this week:

Well I'm off to send this in now. Until later bye Kerry.

Here's my page:

 I don't think the colours have photographed real well and I have taken heaps and this is the best. It is unusal to have a photo of myself so here it is with my neice Chelsie who is now 10, she was adorable and  she has turned into lovely girl.  I don't know why this photo flips itself the other way, anyway this was the first time I had made these scrunched up flowers which I love.

 

I'm off to Juene's Craft retreat {www.juenesretreat.com } this weekend and can't wait, hopefully I will get heaps done. Last time I think I got over 40 pages done and lots of laughter as well. Must go until next time Kerry.

My neice Chelsie!

This weekend I had my neice and nephew stay over which was great fun. My neice Chelsie loves crafty things. I was surprised at how talented she is, her mother doesn't enjoy craft and she does it on her own most times. Here is Chelsie and some of her work:

This one I am entering over at Scraphappy Kat's Friday Night Challenge. I loved the inked flower she did with my inks { they are shaped like petals }, which I had never thought to do using them.

Here is another one that she did of herself:

I love the chook she made all by herself and the horse on the side. These are her favourite things what she has at home. I didn't realise she even has the chook  singing which I didn't know until I took a close up.

Well that's it for Chelsie's talents, we also baked and visited cousins etc etc. A weekend isn't long enough. Until next time Chelsie. xx

Scrapbookit June/ July Challenge.

Here is my entry in the Scrapbookit challenge and here is the requirements:
This month its all about 'SUMMERTIME'
I would love to see what makes you think of summertime and chase away these wintery blues!!
Well I hate winter so I loved this challenge, bring on summer I say. We love our pool and it's the best way to enjoy the warmer weather.

Well thats it for today until next time bye. Kerry.

Black With Two Challenge.

I really LOVE this page. These are the requirements:
DOMINANT BLACK CARDSTOCK BASE ONLY
WITH WHITE ..
AND STRIPES ..YOUR STRIPES MUST BE IN BLACK AND WHITE ALSO .
Here is my page:

This is the welcome and thankyou photo we got from our neighbour after we gave them a present for their new little one. The black and white is so striking and suited this photo { even though the photo is dark brown and blue, which is what I was orginally going to use }. The big brackets are chipboard, the photo corners, feet and title are all cut from my cricut, which I couldn't do with out. I also stamped over the title. Off I go now to link it to their blog. Bye Kerry.

Friday Night Challenge!

Here I am with this weeks FNC from Scraphappy Kats. This was a fairly quick and easy challenge this week for me. Quick? Well didn't take too much thinking until the end, it just needed something and once I put the journalling on it came together. Here is the sketch and there was no other requirement just go for it, so here it is:

This is my daughters boyfriend at Christmas time. I wonder if Kathie will notice it isn't red and black ha ha although I do like this combo. Well here is the finished work of art:

 Until the next entry. Bye Kerry.
