Another Wicked Princesses Sketch Challenge Layout

I have just finished Krissy's 2nd November Sketch Challenge over at Wicked Princesses Forum. I have used the Cosmo Cricket Circa 1934 range.... and oh boy, I am loving this range! I seem to be heading towards more muted colours lately, not so much brights at all.... Must have something to do with old age hee hee
The layout is of a gorgeous girl called Katie, who is one of our good friends from Withcott that we go water skiing with every summer.
So here it is!

I used a Fiskars 'postage stamp' border punch on the photo for something different, I really like the effect that it gave.

We are heading away on the motorbike this afternoon and I havent packed a thing, so I had best finish up and do that before I have to pick the girls up from school this afternoon!

Thanks for dropping by and have a scrappy weekend

A Christmas Cyber Crop @ Scrapbook Savvy

                                         

Tell the truth...have you scrapped ALL your christmas photos from last year?! I bet you haven't.

So this month at Scrapbook Savvy we are cybercropping CHRISTMAS with the aim to have those Xmas 2009 photos scrapped and in albums before Xmas 2010 rolls around in four weeks time.

We'll be playing from Friday 26 November with nearly a week till deadline at midnight Thursday 2 December.

wow... what a day!

My day started at 5am with the alarm blaring telling me to get out of bed and go and do my first PT session, I was a bit scared really at what he was going to do to me lol... But it was GREAT! we did some warm ups on the bike, rowing machine, treadmill and the step.  And then I got really scared as he have us some boxing gloves and pointed us to the direction of the punching bags..... That was awesome, poor Vicki was worried I was going to miss the bag and get her lol. And then we did some push ups (Omg didnt he realise that I am TOP heavy???lol) and then some sit ups. By then it was nearly time to go home... a few stretches and we were out of there! We are going to do it twice a week, roll on Tuesday, I cant wait! (and i say that now, i might feel differntly when I wake up in the morning hee hee)

And then off to work I went, we were quite busy so my work day didnt end until 4 instead of 2... and then I came home to a couple of happy parcels... One was from Peta at Scrapbooking From Scratch with a kit and some Alphas (cause I dont have anywhere near enough bahahahahahah) And the second one had these in it

I got these from Scrap Boutique

They go really well with this tshirt that my gorgeous Cousin Sar sent up to me <3 <3

it sums me up pretty well dont you think???? hee hee

ok, now some real scrapping!
Yesterday I played along with one of Krissy's sketches over at Wicked Princesses, she has a new one every week, here is the Layout I did for the first sketch for November

I really loved how this one turned out, that punch that I got from Scrapbooking from Scratch Retreat is getting a huge workout lately

ok, I had best get off here and think about getting dinner ready ;)
