Blogging along final Challenge a scraplift of Dallas Foley layout

Now I know Louise has only put up the challenge yesterday but my scrapping night is Thursday(I do scrap other times but this is my main night) and in Honour of Brendans 7th Birthday today I did a layout of him the photos fitted well with the challenge.

I used Amanda Blu paper provocraft stickers (one I put on chipboard) and Fancy pants chipboard shapes and basic grey and provocraft chipboard alphas which I painted with MM paint. Brendan thought it was cool. I cant believe it was seven years ago that we were so concerned about our not so little boy in nicu when he was born eight weeks early weighing five pounds nine ounces and look at him now doing very well at school and no effect from being a premmie. Happy Birthday Brendan.

Louises Challenge part Two -sketch

Louise has put up her sketch challenge and here is my take. I got idea straight away with this one was finished by 10pm on Thursday -my scrapping night. Its colours I dont use often so ended up been a bit different. Christopher has just started miniball this season and is loving it and the coach is just amazing - the kids listen to her so intently and she chases them around a lot.

Blogging along Challenge part One

Here is my layout for Louises challenge part one on her blog. I was lucky to be picked as the winner for the warm up challenge and got a lovely iron on bling star - thanks Louise.

With part one you had to use patterned paper you make yourself. My paper was inspired by one of my favourite outfits of kaitlyns that she is wearing in the photos. I painted the flowers and leaves and outlined and highlighted them with white and black pen. I used the paper as the backgound and pop out flowers with glitter on. I think I might try making my own paper again sometime - when I have a longer period of time to do a page that is.
