I Believe In Fairies...

The theme over at One Stop Craft Challenge is 'I believe in angels/fairies'.. so I dragged out the enchanted forest digi kit as it's full of pretty fairy papers and embellishments.
The photo is from our graduation party, our mates dared us to kiss for a photo, wow not like we haven't done that before in the 5 months we've been together but hey lol. I love the wire word embellishment on the top right hand corner, it blends so well with the rest of the page :)

Happy B'day Anne-Marie

It's one of my SBS 18 sister's birthdays on wednesday...so happy birthday for wednesday Anne-Marie... i've been a bit busy recently so I didn't manage to get a card made and posted off to the USA for her... so I made her a digi scrapbook page nstead and emailed it over :) The papers are from the new kit from kaboodle doodle 'party picnic' with happy birthday cupcakes and lollies stuck over the papers. I used a stamp flower image and then put the message over the top of the image... very similar to the signature Anne-Marie has at the end of each post... I then added pink ricrac, a red tag and pink brads to look like they are securing the tag to the page... and i'm glad that she liked it :)

SSC summer challenge

This weeks challenge over at Scrummy Stash Cafe is 'Here comes summer' so I've made a summery scrapbook page using the Long Hot Summer digi scrapbook kit and candy filled alphas.... sadly the photo isn't one of my own either :( but i doubt i could get a summery image on such a dull, wet day like we have here

Gutter Girlz challenge #2

Yay time for Gutter Girlz second challenge...

THE PROMPT:I'm a JUNKIE

THE SONG:Shoes by Liam Sullivan (please don't feel limited by the song, your creation doesn't have to have ANYTHING to do with shoes)

THE PRODUCT:Packaging, wrappers, or logo of your addiction...

So i've done another digi scrapbook page but only managed to get in 2 of the prompts this time but oh well it's still very me :)

Many of u will guess from my blog that my main vices are flying and aircraft so that's the theme of my scrapboo page... i've used the kit 'Little Flyer' for the embellishments, paper and frame... the logos are all aircraft or gliding based... and then there's my little bit of journalling, sounds like something you'd hear at an AA meeting, perhaps i should start Airheads Annonymous lol!

Gutter Girlz challenge #1

So i found this new challenge blog called Gutter Girlz, and fell in love with it! I totally dig the attitude of the ladies and i think this will be right up my street so i'm gonna try and join in every challenge...the challenges come out on the 15th & 30th of every month with a 3 part challenge, you don't have to do all 3 but each part you do earns you an extra entry for the prize :)



The most recent challenge was...
The PROMPT: What makes you feel like a Woman?
The SONG: MAN!! I Feel like a Woman! by Shania Twain
The PRODUCT: Panty Hose

So my entry is a digi scrapbook page i've done of myself, ok so the picture is about 2 years old now but i really like it, it's my grungy days as a college student lol. It's made from papers and embellishments from the 'Urban Grunge' digi download kit and it's free! I got the panty hose in, the backing on the left hand side is made up of womens legs wearing fishnets, this itself makes a fishnet pattern...they are a beautiful product called burlesque wonder fishnets. What makes me feel like a woman... well acting like one of the lads in a hoodie but being able to look good and posing for photos at the same time... so this is what this picture means to me!

more scapbook pages

So i made another 3 digi scrapbook pages; one of me at uni in our 737, one of the OH and i at our venture photo shoot at christmas and the third is a picture of the glider i used to fly, it's my dad's.
I used the kaboodle doodle papers for the backgrounds andd flower embellishments, used a few shabby princess embellishments; the ribbons, brads and stamps to finish off the pages :)
