Scraploot Step By Step Reveal

A few weeks back I created a layout for the Scraploot blog, with step by step instructions using the one of my all time favourite collections, Lily Bee Head over Heels. I was also lucky enough to use to We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy tool and I have absolutely fallen in love with it. It makes handstitching on your pages super quick and easy. I adore the photos on this layout. These photos were some selfies taken on my 30th Birthday of my little man and myself. This layout definitely reminds me of why I scrapbook... the emotions and memories that just looking at this stirs in me makes me so happy.

Scraploot Monthly Competition

Yesterday over on the Scraploot blog it was announced that there is to be a monthly competition. This month its a sketch comp, which I designed... and for my first attempt at designing a sketch. I really hope you will play along...  Here are all the details......

Today we are excited to announce our new monthly Scraploot Competition. On the first Saturday of the month we will be announcing a new challenge that will run for the entire month, giving you lots of time to get your entries in. To kick off our monthly competitions, this month we are going to have a Sketch competition. Below you will find a sketch and sample, which you can interpret anyway you like, as long as we can still recognise the sketch. You can complete it in whatever size you feel comfortable working in (8.5x11, 12x12) or even as a card sketch. This month the prize for our competition will be a $20 voucher to spend in our Scraploot online store. To enter this months challenge, email your layout to info@scraploot.com.au and we will be sharing the entries via the blog.

Head Over Heels...

A quick share from me today, of a layout I shared over on the Scraploot Blog last week.
This layout is a photo of my boys and I taken on my 30th Birthday last year in November. I was absolutely spoilt. I have absolutely loved using this Lily Bee Head Over Heels Collection, as although it is quite feminine, it is not too over the top. I will have a couple more layouts to share over the coming weeks using this collection. Hope you are inspired by some of my creations.....
