last week in april already

have had a bit of playtime in the scrap room the card above is my take on a card sketch on a CC at scrapbudz

my simply diviiine red shoes, so comfortable,they perfectly match my red patent bag which was fluke buying as I didn't have the bag with me when shopping, the LO is my take on the sketch challenge for April on "scrap with V" forum

beautiful early morning in north Queensland Easter 2008, this LO is my take on the "scrapping word pictures" challenge

my beautiful butterfly just hung there and let me take photos with the flash, it's hanging on my weeping fig, I also have a pic of it with wings spread open, this LO was done for a colour challenge
at scrapbudz, orange being the main colour

another challenge for April was for an 8x12 layout using lace, stitching& strip journalling I love the soft pink gorgette roses as the trim found them in a lovely gift store at Brighton Qld.

Sketch challenge for March on SWV forum

Yet another challenge a scraplift of a Jolene Pinear layout ... grand daughter Stevie..


My daughter, DJ and family gave me several " pandora" beads for my birthday, one of which is a bee with a golden crown, for a queen bee who is always "busy". I treasure the love and sentiments that go into the beads selected. boy oh boy how right she was, the last few weeks have been a whirlwind,
I'm preparing for the CC at ScrapwithV this weekend, I am setting the Mystery Layout....
