Scrapping Life...

Its sketch reveal day over at Scrapbook Challenges !   I went with the single page layout, rotating the sketch and replace the title with a grouping of pretty flowers!   The pics of of Cathy and I - best friends and best scrapping buddies!     http://scrapbookchallenges.com/sketch-329/ and the double sketch....      So please pop on over and check out the gorgeous inspiration from the Sketch Crew !  

This is one of those layouts that I have had hanging around in my stash for forever!  It is a georgeous design by Lara Cousins that I did at a Mega Crop back in 2005!   I loved how the red polka dot picked up on Kelby red polks dot bow on her clown outfit.    And here is a layout that always makes me smile!  Nick the morning after the Major Production After Party!  I reckon Spud got the best seat in the house that morning!   God bless all and have a super week!  

So this is how time fly's!  I found a photo of Kelby on her first day of school in Bridge Class and then I had one of her in her Matric year.  It was such fun seeing this layout come together and remembering so many of the highlights of those years in between these two!  

So all my planning for the weekend come to nothing when I decided to re-arrange and clean my sons bedroom!  Uptill now it looked like a 11 year olds room and since he is turning 17 this month, I thought it best I get moving on updating it a bit! Needless to say he wasn't home the whole weekend, so I at least got to work in a bit of piece and quiet.  And now he has a room more or less befitting at 17 year old - computer and all! Now all thats left is to tidy up my scrap space and finally get down to some serious scrapping!

Our four legged babies! This is Bella - the bigger one and our newest addition, Mr Merlyn.  They are both Standard French Poodles and need I say I totally adored in our household!
