Don't ya just love the summer hols?! Life is still hectically busy but with a much happier and far less stressful vibe. So far the girlies have been to the beach a couple of times, visited Leeds castle, Linton Zoo, Canterbury and seen Kung Fu Panda at the movies. We still have a list an arms length of things to do and places to visit including our annual visit to Jane and her darling girls in Wales. I'm beginning to think maybe 6 weeks holiday in not enough!
And so ... I scraped through Round3 of the Embellished Idol competition, by the skin of my teeth LOL , with my take on the challenge. We had to create on something other than 12x12 page and include a life motto/quote. I used a quote from the Monsters Inc movie as it seems to be my lifes motto at this moment in time ... I must tell the girlies a hundred times a day "not to touch things that don't belong to you". I used a kids cartoon canvas and altered it into a 'mummy monster'.
And now on to Round 4 .. this week we had to atttach everything onto our layout using at least 2 different type of stitching and include a title and a lil' journaling. So I dug out some fabric I had languishing in the cupboard - cut out a gazillion flower/bird/butterflies and a birdhouse and scrapped these pics Toopie took of me and the twins back in 2001. I love these pics - they always make my heart smile. Everything is stitched onto the background cardstock, I have the bloody fingers to prove it - must have pricked them 10+ times! Aside from the cardstock the only "official scrapbooking supplies" I used were 2 of the deliscious Chatterbox Eclectique embellies!
Voting is on the
Embellished forum (ROUND 4) and closes at 5pm Sunday AEST. This week you are only allowed o pick 3 of your favourites ... all entries can be seen in the Round 4 gallery on the
Idol blog.
Till later dahlinks .. MWAH

LOL I am so glad that I am not the only one who seems to repeat 'If its not yours don't touch it!'
I am sick of the sound of my own voice most days.
I adore the life is sweet LO I just love the whole feel of the page. Beautiful x
