2 boys on a train

the challenge over at Child's Play this time is a lovely toy train ( theirs is under a Christmas tree but I ignored that aspect)
My LO has a tiny little train on it but the LO is also about our regular trips on a steam train to Minehead when we go and visit our friend in Somerset.

Passport photo

Passport photos are a real game to get right when the subject of the photo is under 10. Nancy was supposed to have a serious expression which means her photos make her look like a criminal in a mug shot

natural

this is a minimalist LO with lots of white space for the challenge over at Kraft it up

Park Live ZOne

this LO is about our trip to the Olympics this summer_ We had a great time and part of that was being able to hang out around the Olympic Park after out event had finished. This Photo is from Park Live where there were big screens to watch the action and see the medals being won

using a sketch

both of these LOs were made using the recent sketch at Sarah's Cards. the bottom one is my favourite I think.

the top one is a close up of the Olympic Stadium. I think the striped paper mirrors the pattern of the stadium nicely.

this one is quite typical of me. I take some bad photos but I don't delete them I quite often print them out and use them on a page. this one Nancy got too close so she's blurred in the picture but I love the natural smile.


here is the sketch

london eye

A quick post- A LO I made using instagrams of our first trip on the London Eye back in June

Late yet again- you'd think I'd learn.

This LO is for the latest challenge at Scrap it with a Song- the song = Homeward bound by Simon and Garfunkel and I used a patchwork effect that was highlighted on the Crate Paper blog this week and an instagram photo that my son took on my I phone of my husband and the other two children
