Snow photos

I dug out some snow photos on the weekend, maybe I was missing Albury! We moved back to SA in early July and therefore pretty much missed the snow season this year. I think Em would have enjoyed it more this year than she did last, I sure hope Lucy would have because she really hated it the last two years. I was inspired by the Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses range, and while it is wintery and snowy it isn't overly Christmassy like most winter papers are. The sketch I used was a Pencil Lines sketch (number 203). The photos are no masterpiece but that isn't what this hobby is about is it? To me it is about recording moments and memories and if you learn a thing or two that enables you to take great photos then all well and good but snapshots should also be scrapped!

I feel as though I have been gone forever but in reality it was only a few days. Unfortunately my computer got a virus and so I was sans internet for a couple of days. I am happy to say I now have the green light and am bug free! What this meant was I couldn't upload my latest projects and my Wild Card projects. By without any further ado here they are.


I love this little present card and as someone at my crop said, "how cute would a layout look with these presents in varying sizes across the bottom?"


This monster is a cutie, I am not altogether thrilled with him though as I had to emboss him with my Sizzix and he was too big too fit. So I call him Examplar 1!


A great little birthday card and there are so many ways you could alter this card to make it special each time.

Tim Holtz Grungeboard

This month's Scrapaholics kit uses the cutting edge Grungeboard by Tim Holtz. This stuff is fabulous, it's like chipboard underwent a revolution. You can cut it, paint it, ink it, sew it, emboss it, die cut it, grunge it up by sanding for a brilliant effects. This stuff is totally flexible, you can even screw it up and flatten it back out and it will retain its shape. Check out this video demonstration by Tim Holtz.

The Boxer Basic Grey papers in the kit have a grungy feel to them which really works well with the Grungeboard.
