How did I forget to post this?

love

why do I never seem to have a minute for scrapping anymore- oh yes its because I'm working full time- I had a couple of hours on Saturday and managed a few LOs for my design teams and only one for a challenge- this one is for Kraft it Up= the challenge- love, pink and kraft- a perfect chance to doa bit of the quilting thing that seems to be everywhere at the moment

the title- love silly photos

Leap jump bounce

The February challenge at Scrap Our Stash this month is another one that leaves you with plenty of free reign to use your imagination.... Its February of a leap year so the challenge is LEAP- in whichever way you want to interpret it

I've been a little bit literal and used some photos of Nancy on the bouncy castle at my Sister's wedding ( hence the inappropriate dress)

I used a barcode strip to underline the title  and that's where I used the word leap to fit with the challenge

choice

So the Scrapping the Music challenges for this month are all taken from Oscar winning songs- it was hard to narrow down our choices from the list of past winners but we have some great ones lined up- the first is FAlling slowly from the movie "Once"

I chose the line "you have a choice" I thought it was a great sentiment for a beautiful picture of my son-

promise

I hate the winter nights- I hate that I am working full time and I can't get a good photo of my LOs until the weekends- I can't wait until I can get some lighter evenings for both my LO photos and my project 366 photos

This LO is for the latest challenge at Twisted sketches- the twist is Promise- the photos are of our recent trip to London- I am desperate to go back again with the kids to see some of the sights again- so the title of this is "Promise we can go back soon"

EDit- a new improved better daylight photo- you can now see the man with the magnificent beard

Valentine challenge From Screen 2 Scrap

the latest challenge at From Screen 2 Scrap for February has to have a valentines theme- what else- so Shazza has chosen the poster for VAlenitne's day the movie

This LO uses photos from our recent visit to see my sister and her new baby- my three were desperate to have a hold and were crowding round a screaming baby trying to get a cuddle!

Shazza'a criteria are

black card

10 little photos (at least)

and two hearts

I had run out of black card so I had to use the back of a page I started a long time ago but never finished! so that's one of the criteria- I printed out 10 tiny pictures as a contact sheet and cut them up to make a pattern with them and then hand cut a couple of hearts in the right colour

this is the poster

love hearts

This one is the Scrapbookers AnonymousFebruary challenge- agreValentines challenge- use at least three hearts and some stitching

- I cut out four large hearts from coordinating October Afternoon paper and then stuck them to some kraft cardstock and cut them out- I then stitched round the inside of the heart ( you can just about see the threads dangling) and stuck the whole lot onto a lighter shade of kraft card

I used a couple of photos of Nancy and a few embellies- simple
