Rough and Tough - Scrap the Boys

Hey hey,

I thought while my boys trash my lounge room I would post this LO for Scrap the Boys blog

No literally look
 

 

sometimes you just got to breathe and let it happen.
 
Had some fun with mixed media, for this grungy look.
 
 
I enjoyed getting as messy as my Eli did that day in the dirt.
 
 
 
now maybe I should start on tidying that mess.
 
You stay classy scrappy ladies
 
Amy xoxo

We R Memory Keepers

Hello Scrapaholic Bloggers,

We all love Teresa Collins right?! This is my play with Teresa Collins. I don't memory keep/project life etc for everyday. Just too much for me but I do like having an opportunity to use all the photos you take of an event or holiday. Which scrapbooking can tend to limit. So four pages using my favourite brand is shared below;

Harrington 2012
Materials used-Teresa Collins We R Memory Keepers Cards and Summer Stories Collection, American Craft thickers, Piece of Cake Flairs.
Tip - If you use clear envelopes or even just recycling small embellishment packets for sequin pockets

Beautiful Boy-
Materials used - Teresa Collins Summer Stories collection, Wood veneer and feathers from Shop and Crop.com

Tip-You don't have to use stencils for paint only. I used Teresa Collins stencil for my stitched title
 A Day in Sand/Dirt-
 Materials used Teresa Collins We R Memory Keepers Cards, MME Lost and found Collection, Kaszazz rub ons, American Craft Thickers
 






Tip-Don't be afraid to go outside the pocket when creating



Tip - Cutting up the pocket pages can be attached to a page to make a mini book

Ok So Ill See you soon but keep tabs because I may have some exciting news regarding a certain favourite Scrapbook Magazine and one of my layouts. I cant say yet but stay tuned

You Stay Scrappy

3 layouts just for you

Hello scrapping bloggins,
What a month this has been huh???.
I'll give you a quick update. My family went through Easter, a trip to the farm, an attempted suicide (not is but close family) closing day care, getting a job, quitting that job, a broken camera, then broken sewing machine, then broken internet, a tooth extraction and most scary our first school holidays. And we 4 survived it all, even thrived I believe.
I did scrap I promise ... not as much as you can understand but when things like the Easter bunny and the tooth fairy coming in one month its a pretty big deal. (and secretly I cant wait to scrap them all)

so first this is Love
Materials used, piece of cake march kit, embellishments from spotlight, Kaszazz, dear Lizzy and flourish with a bling







 
 
Next Layout is called Five
This is for the white with one challenge, I completed these next two at a crop day at shopandcrop.com.au with a girl friend. That was a fun twelve hours. 
Materials used are card stock, my minds eye and bits of scrap embellishments are dear Lizzy, Heidi swap, kaisercraft and resin flowers
 

 
 
Final layout for today is Party, for black with two challenge
 
Materials used - card stock, black coordinations and black basic grey, embellishments are amy tangerine, piece of cake flair, paper flowers, ribbon and a bit of flourish with a bling, theres also a rub on there but I don't known where its from I'm surprised it still works.
 

 
 
 
Ok girls you stay scrappy and ill catch ya next month.
