Motat

At Easter 2013 we went to Auckland with 3 of our children. I used the Artfull Crafts Sketch challenge to make a layout of our day at Motat.

 

I had fun playing with washi tape for the first time :)

Blue and White

I love this colour combo and I love working with black and white photos. This photo was taken of me and my husband without us knowing, so it is candid and not posed and for once I like this photo of me (pity about the double chin)

 

And a few close ups

 

 

I Love this Martha Stewart butterfly punch my Mum bought me for my birthday

 

Little handmade white flowers

 

And I had to test my window die I just bought. I have used it on some cards too which turn out well. Such a neat die!

 

Any way thanks for looking

My Mum and her favourite colour.

I made this page for my mum. I have been trying out different styles of scrapbooking to find my own style. I havn't often scraplifted but this one I did. I found this beautiful blog A walk down memory lane and I have used her page as my inspiration.

This layout is of my Mum and her husband.

This is my first page using tattered angels glimmer mist, I love how spraying flowers e.t.c brings all the colours together. I also made some of the flowers myself. Using you-tube as a teacher :)

 

I love the little white resin flowers I found on Trade-me.

My littlest princess

Miss 3 loves to dress up and on a recent trip to the zoo she decided she would dress like a fairy princess. Around every corner it was the same story "mum take a photo of the fairy princess" "look at me, look at me, look at me"

 

 

I had a lot of trouble with todays light and the glare off the photo from the flash, so the photos are not the best.

 

Here is a close up of one of the pretty flowers by Petaloo 

 

  I won this kit from Scraps of elegance- it was their Feburary kit- Lovesong. Lots of lovely goodies.

Southern Girls Challenge this fortnight is "you can say that again" using a sentiment. Here is a close up of the sentiment on my layout (so true) "I love you so much my sweetie, can't you see it in my eyes?

Thanks for looking and thanks for your comments :)
