Long weekend scrapping!

Our recent very wet, cold and windy long weekend proved very productive for me! scrapping wise anyway......I scrapped the day away on sunday and managed to do six pages :) I also forced myself to use up some kits I had been hoarding. I'm not buying any new papers until my pile of "stuff" reduces in size LOL

This LO is for ScrapBoutique's stash stomper sketch, the 1st challenge set by the new stylist Emma, who seems like a lovely girl and her work is fabulous.

this is for Scrapboutique's stylist challenge by Manon, which was picture inspiration from some photos Manon took at Floriade - inspired me to scrap the photos of the beautiful flowers Peta sent me :)
this is Kayla Renee's 1st challenge at Savvy, and it is a scraplift of a "Mel" layout

this is the monthly sketch at Savvy (pagemaps) and I loved it so much I did it twice. Great one to use up scraps and cropped photos.

this is the version that I uploaded to the Savvy gallery

this is Kerryn's ad inspiration challenge for Savvy - I used the ad as a sketch

and this is for Sara's 1st DT challenge at Savvy - love this goofy photo of the family in the car

And thats all my scrapping for now! I found out today that I won the monthly sketch challenge at Savvy for september, so I am very excited about that!! $25 to spend at the Savvy store!! WOOHOO! thanks to Sar and the girls at Savvy xxx

School holidays are rolling along nicely, I am enjoying the time with the kids. we have been to the movies twice to see "Coraline" (OMG what a freaky movie - scared the shit out of the kids) and also "Aliens in the Attic" which was hilarious!! Highly recommend it.

Izzy slept at noony's for a few nights which gave us a nice break, Cayle has been sick as a dog with the flu but is back at work now and slowly recovering, brielle got through her dental operation with flying colours - she was so brave and has had very minimal pain so I am happy. Declan has gone off today for his very 1st playdate with a school friend - I am so proud of the progress he has made this year. I'm sure he and Emily are having a lovely day together :) And I have started de-cluttering and spring cleaning which of course has made a HUGE mess - I have 10 boxes of crap in my loungeroom that need to be sorted through HELP!
