Pip

Pip - also known as Pipster, Pipsqueak, Pippy, Pipperella and Fats ;)

One of her favourite spots is outside our bedroom ranchslider curled up on a large toy dog - no irony there considering she's the biggest scaredy-cat ever!

I came across this sketch by Lets Get Sketchy for June and it gave me the inspiration I needed to get this page done and dusted.

 

Thanks for looking, leave a comment if you like it!

Once again the best bud pair Shiloh and Shannon.

That's the trouble with being so photogenic :D

This was taken when we were away for a weekend in Hanmer together earlier this year. Such a relaxing spot!

And a couple of close ups of the gels/mica...

My inspiration for this was the Blue Fern sketch challenge for June -

So pretty and feminine! 

Thanks for the look, leave a comment if you like it :)

Just a quick check in with this one...

My beautiful niece Maddison again, this time at Riverton when we went to Invercargill over the Xmas holidays 2015/16.

The layout comes form a class run by Julie Best (her first!) which was great, using a lot of Blue Fern product, sprays and gelatos, all courtesy of The Paper Teapot.

Thanks for the look!

Exciting news!

I'm finally allowed to share my good news... I made it on to the design team for Scrap our Stash - a fab challenge site with two challenges every month!

Woohoo!!! :D

Take a look here, and have a go at a challenge - you might be surprised at what you can come up with!

Wonder...

This page is titled "Wonder" as that's exactly the expression on Shiloh's face....facing a new year of challenges at school, wondering what path to take, where life will take her.

And a couple of close ups of that texture....

I had two challenge sites that I used for inspiration for this page - 

Firstly the sketch is by Laura at Stuck?! Sketches, I love how it makes it easy to put my own stamp on things. If you would like to play along you have until the end of the month - just have a look here.

And this is the sketch I used...

Secondly thank you to Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge for the title inspiration, this challenge is also open to the end of the month - have a play along with this challenge too - go on, you know you want to! Have a look at it here.

Also, I have to say - I'm a major fan of Bo Bunny texture paste - a really nice effect and so simple to use. 

Thanks for having a look, leave a comment if you like it ;;)
