Big Ben

OK not such a great photo but a LO made for Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge sketch

AS you can see I changed things a bit and used two square photos

The LO is about our trip to London before the Olympics- we went hunting for statues of the Olympic and Paralympic mascots- this one was painted as Big Ben so I coupled the picture with a picture of Big Ben and the houses of Parliament from one of our trips on the London Eye
 

medal winner

Sohere is a LO for the Sketch challenge ocer at Dutch dares- you can see the sketch below and a link to the blog- even if you don't read Dutch there is some lovely inspiration and google usually offers the option to translate anyway.

 I started following when I lived in Holland and I still like to participate

this LO is another from our trip to the Paralympics. While we were having our food one of the medal winning cyclists decided to pop in for a traet after her win with her medal on. the photo shows her with her silver medal and then one with the boys in the background.

I google her today to find out her name and while doing so I found someone else picture of her in the same spot with my daughter's hand holding the medal :)

Her name is Alyda Norbruis  from the Netherlands and she came second in the c 1-2-3 500m time trial

cricket

this one was for Scrap the Boys the challenge was the boys favourite summer activity being a Southern Hemisphere challenge site- We in the north are suffering snow but my boys love cricket all year round- they are currently going to indoor winter training and in the summer they love to play as often as they can

tag you're it

the latest challenge at Scrap OUr Stash is to use tags on your LO. 

I went a little to town with the tags on my LO- there are

 tweleve in all- some are punched tags and don't have the hole 

in them but I think they still count.

 I chose the paper as it went with the pattern of my daughter's

 dress and then I went from there using scraps and bits and bobs 

to finish it off.

Union Jack

I didn't think this challenge for child's Play would be so difficult. The challenge is the game of Jacks. I remember being really bad at it as a kid and being wowed by my Mum's abilities.
I racked my brains to think of a way of using the game in a LO but couldn't think of one so instead I just took the name Jack for the title of my LO and made this one about Nancy drawing on a plastic Union Jack sheet at the Olympics

call me.....

 This LO is for the latest challenge over at Scrap it with a song. The song is Call Me Maybe. 

My LO is about the name Nancy wishes she had. She likes to add things to her name. Given a choice she would be.......

Nancy May Pink Princess Each Peach Pear Plum pink purple butterfly Williams

Ted

inspired by the movie TEd- which is the movie poster inspiration over at From Screen to Scrap for January- I made this LO
the challenge is to use the movie poster for inspiration and
1. white card
2. a one word large title
3. a teddy

I may have cheated a little in that I have some small letters to make the title longer but I wanted to make a LO about my son's teddy- he is 10 now but the teddy lives down the side of his bed between the wall and the mattress and I'm not allowed to move it.
