More Challenges...

I just love these cards. They were the Scrappy Hour project at CreateMyKeepsake.com this week. What a great design! I had to make two of them.
The peach one is on the Bazzill bling CS. I used yarn for the flower and a Prima Hydrangea bloom on top.
The green one uses two of Bazzill's big buttons for the base of the flower and some Prima blooms.

Daniel had a Pizza Party with his Summer Friends in Victoria, compliments of Grandma & Grandad.
Lil' Davis stamps
MM rubons-'summer', Friend tag, 'July' rubon
Good Times rubon (from my secret friend, Tania)
MME pp
CB Stickers

Challenges at ScrapCentral.ca

First I worked on a Black & Blue challenge. I pulled out a couple of photos of Daniel with my Mum & Dad's dog, Kona, from his recent visit.

The second challenge was the 'C' from SCrap. Make a Christmas Card.


The third challenge was the 'R' from SCRap. Do a layout of a Relative


The 'S' was to make a post about a neat Storage idea we used in our scrap space.

Another of Daniel's holiday...

Gingerbread Men are a Xmas tradition at my Mum's. It's not Xmas so the boys made monsters and dinosaurs instead. Still the same great taste!

And one of me from way back when.

Christmas in July

Christmas in July was celebrated at www.createmykeepsakes.com this past weekend. I only had time to participate in one challenge. I made a candy can jar out of a Prima Flowers container and a matching card.

I also made a start on Daniel's photos from his recent trip to Victoria. Mum and Dad took him to the Titanic Exhibition at the Victoria Museum. This layout was for a 2-4-6-8 Challenge. 2 Photos - 4 papers(3CS & 1PP) - 6 embellishments (buttons) - 8 rubons (letters for 'titanic' and 'd')

Breanna's new 'do'

This is Breanna before her haircut. Her hair is so thick and heavy. She wouldn't let me near her with a hairbrush and the poor hairdresser discovered that, while Breanna was combing the top layer of hair, it was a matted, tangled mess underneath.

Now it's truly wash and wear! And it looks cute too :)

Air Show




We had a crowd over for the airshow on Wednesday night. The ladies and kids sat on the shed roof to watch and the men climbed up on the garage roof. It really was a great show!

A new look

Got my hair cut yesterday. Had Breanna take a few photos. Love how my stylist layered the back! When I got home Breanna said to me, "We should go clothes shopping, and then we should go visit Lilia. If you took something other than fruit salad she wouldn't even recognize you". I think that's a hint that I need to come up with some other desert recipes. LOL

I'm getting lots of compliments. I like the back view better than the front! We were having a glass of wine before dinner and Breanna joined us. She filled her wine glass with ice water than proposed a toast. "To Mum's good hairday". Clink! Clink! Clink!
