So Happy Together

Another challenge. I was thrilled to win a prize in the 123 Challenge blog for their December challenge.
Their January challenge is Yellow/Texture /Together. Yellow has always been a favourite of mine. Such a happy colour.On this theme I chose  some summery photo's and used texture paste that I had coloured yellow and stenciled some sun-rays.
I was happy with the bright and sunny feel to the page.

Happy Scrapping

Pretty Cool

Well this page is the first cab off the rank for 2016.
I had a wonderful time at the Scrapbookit retreat in Spring and  I am looking forward to the Autumn retreat in March with much enthusiasm. I am looking forward to catching up with all the wonderfully talented ladies that I met in Spring. I picked up some great ideas especially a great way to amalgamate my single pages with project life.
Scrapbookit  have a delightful little sketch for their first challenge of the year. I used as the main an assortment of Kaisercraft papers from their Little One collection. Even though it was the boy range I was able to make a pretty and sweet girl page. I added some pretty embellishments and was quite happy with the result.

Happy New Year and I hope you enjoyed my page.

Perfect Moment

I have just managed to squeeze in another challenge. The team at 123 Challenge had  an interesting challenge. The challenge was Black and White /Perfect /Stamping.
I liked the Black and white theme and chose a photo with good colour to compliment  the this. My photography of  the page is not very good and for some reason I have a blue shading across the bottom. Ignore that! And I was actually pleased with the page. The black and white is an interesting colour way to make the photo pop on the page. I think I will try this combination more often.

Happy New Year and Happy Scrapping.
Heather B,

Sweet Hair

Christmas is knocking on the door! This will be my last post for 2015 before all the visitors arrive. To have all the family together is always the bonus. Best wishes to all my scrapping friends and a special thought to my dear neighbor who has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. I hope everyone has a very happy and festive Christmas season and a wonderful new year.

This page is for a challenge with White With One and the colour is Majorca Blue. This really was a challenge because it isn't a colour that I usually work with. But once again a bit of a scratch through the stash and you surprise yourself with what you find. It is a cute photo of Fletcher and he has really come to the party with his eyes matching beautifully with the colour challenge. I just love cooperation all around. The hairdo is not manufactured...it is real!
I was happy with the result....just a sweet little boy page with little fuss.

Merry Christmas and Happy Scrapping.

Travellers

I have managed to fit in another scrap challenge this busy month. Sometimes it is so relaxing to go into my scrap room and immerse myself in the construction of a page. The memories as you sift through the photo's to choose one to suit the page you have in mind almost take the most time!
However I have done the Scrap The Boys challenge for December. It is a fairly simple page with lots of punching and cutting and finishing off with a bit of machine stitching.
I loved these photo's of Noah and Grandpa as they were waiting for the train at the station.

Merry Christmas and Happy Scrapping.

Smile.

I thought that I would get this challenge in for Scrap The Girls quick smart because I think it is going to get busy and hectic this month.
I loved the colours and the inspiration on the mood board. I flicked through a few photo's and this one popped up perfectly to match the theme that I had chosen. Lily had just got a new parka and gloves and beanie for a trip to the snow and modeled them for me. Lo and behold the camera just happened to be handy and I got a few nice snaps.

I hope you enjoy my page.
Happy Scrapping and a Merry and safe Christmas.

You & Me

 When all is good with your computer .. the world is sweet. But when things go awry you could tear your hair out. Enough said..... the latter is happening at the moment.

Hopefully I am doing a post for the Scrap the Girls November challenge. I loved the sketch and had fun playing with it. What a cute photo of Chloe taking dolly for a walk. Such a cute photo deserved a really sweet treatment and with these papers from Kaisercraft the colours and designs worked beautifully.

In between starting and completion I have been to Adelaide to celebrate Chloe's third birthday and arrived home to do battle with a sick computer.

I hope you enjoy my page.
Happy Scrapping.    Heather B.
