Been scrapping...

its Saturday at last and my DH is home for a couple of days before he is off again.  So while the 3 boys where outside this morning playing/doing yard work, I got stuck in and got my jobs done and then sat down and did this layout.  It is for the sketch challenge at SUYS.

Sketch:

Admiring new Spring flowers...I decided to try out the awesome technique by Kim Jeffress in the latest Scrapbooking Memories magazine.  So I rummaged around and found some older Hambly and cut out the centre bit of this gorgeous MLS diecut and stitched the transparency on. Thanks Kim for the tips and inspiration!


 A cute little Purple Pumpkin button...

Hope you are all enjoying your last weekend of summer weather, although here in Central Queensland summer goes for a lot longer....yipeeeeee!!!

Thanks for stopping by, I really do enjoy your comments that you leave...it makes my day :)

    Just love the little "scene" that you have made, Min - it is gorgeous & very cute! loving those black splatters too (you do them soooo well - mine always come out not looking right). You are really on a roll lately - such gorgeous fantastic work!

    ps. to answer your question on my blog.... Yes the cardstock I used in my "Italian Job" layout is an embossed coredinations cardstock
