My boys

Football fever has begun in our house! We've just started to watch the opening ceremony of the Euro 2012 competition. It's so nice seeing Irish flags flying everywhere around town, I'm sure the rest of the country is the same :)
The first challenge for the weekend has started on the Scrap*aholics facebook page. It is to use banners, pendants or flags. I was going to do a Euro 2012 page, but I don't have any photos yet so I decided to do a page on my boys. I'm entering it into the  Frosted designs stitching challenge as there is some faux stitching on the paper I used.

Thanks for stopping by!

Friday Sketchers, ICS & Frosted Designs

I took out one of my all time favourite stamps today and made two cards with it. For my first one I used sketch #132 from Friday Sketchers, some Basic Grey pp, snowflakes and some ribbon and made a bow with the bow easy tool so I'm submitting it to the Frosted Designs ribbon challenge.

For my second card I used a sketch from Inspirational Card Sketches, Cuttlebug & small bubbles embossing folder, Papermania ribbon, X-Cut flower punch and a snowflake.

Team work...

Hello everyone :) I have been sick all week with the flu and have been feeling sorry for myself  :(  so today I thought I would get my act together and do something crafty. Here are the results. It's a page of my son and his Gaelic football team. I was a very proud momma that day, seeing him all decked out in his football gear :)

Supplies: DCWV citrus stack, Cricut & opposites attract & home decor carts

I used sketch 223 from Pamela's world of scrap and some die cuts that I made with my Cricut so I'm submitting it to Frosted Designs die cut challenge.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great weekend!

Sketchy Thursday , Frosted designs & TPE

I'm so happy it's the weekend, it has been one long week! Today definately started off on a better note, because on the Club CK forum I won some Basic Grey paper! Woohoo! And I have a jug of Sangria chilling in the fridge to enjoy tonight :)
I made this layout today using this weeks Sketchy Thursday sketch and I was inspired by the challenge on Frosted designs of "celebrate life".  I used some MME (bloom and grow) pp and covered some bare chipboard letters with some of the paper to make them match and added a few stars and buttons. I'm also submitting it for The Pink Elephants recipe challenge of buttons, punched borders & patterned paper.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend :)

Need direction?

Frosted designs challenge this week is to use an arrow on your layout or project. I made this page using Coredinations cs and some BasicGrey pp. I didn't have an arrow that would work with my colour scheme so I traced around an arrow I had and cut it out of cs, inked the edges and ran it through my Cuttlebug using the small bubbles embossing folder. I did the same with a photo corner and finished it off with some Papermania letter stickers.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Hello all, I'm back with another layout. I used some photo's from this years St. Patrick's and this weeks Sketchy Thursday sketch. The pp is DCWV, Cosmo Cricket and BasicGrey. I also used a Karen Foster shamrock sticker, Making Memories journaling stamp, Papermania letter stickers and an X-Cut diamonds border punch, so I'm submitting it to this weeks Frosted designs challenge of "border punches" also.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Hello! I'm back again with another scrapbook page, this time of my youngest. This photo is now five years old, I don't know where the time has gone! I used sketch #73 from The Scrappiest,  Bo Bunny and Cosmo Cricket paper, Dymo lable maker and Papermania letter stickers & flower. The felt tag and brad were gifts and I can't remeber who made them.
I'm also submitting this page for Frosted Designs challenge of felt and to Club CK's flag challenge.
