Scrapfairies LOs

I showed you the senaks, and if you followed the links to Scrapfairies you will have already seen the LOs in full, but here they are blogged to share.
I loved working with the black and white, although I did add coloured cardstock. I gave the LO of my mum and dad to my mum and she loved it...so much so we had to go and get her a 12x12 album and she has now started scrapping that size too!

The trust is earned LO is my first LO without a photo. I wanted to scrap a poem that Rob wrote for me when we first met. I had just come out of a violent relationship and wasn't in the place to be trusting men... let alone a man who I had met on the internet...LOL!!! There is a line in the poem that reads 'trust is earned and may take time, this being the reason for this rhyme', so now the title should make sence to you. I must say that I am loving the hot pink and electric blue with the black and white... will have to have another go with this colour combination.

The third LO was a back to school LO with a difference. I have already done the 'stand there in your uniform and smile LO', but felt that I wanted to include something about the start of the new academic year. So I decided to scrap about the loathsome job of sewing in name labels! Normally I would have bought iron in or stick in labels, but oh no... Oliver wanted the ones with a picture of a car on, and they only came in the sew in variety... gggggrrrrrrrrr!!!

And I thought I had done a good job of stitching them in... only for Sam to say that I needed sewing lessons...LOL!!!
Went shopping this morning and bought a new pair of jeans and a top, and fell in love with the most gorgeous pair of shoes... just need to be VERY nice to Rob as they were a little on the pricey side, and to be honest I don't really need another pair of Art shoes.... what!!! am I mad!!! of course I NEED another pair... these ones are yellow, and I don't have a yellow pair...
Right, off to Jem's blog for a workout... be back tomorrow with some new scrapping to show you:)
