So little time!!!

I can't believe we are almost done with June already... eeeeeek!!! where is the time going? I've so much to do and just never seem to have enough time... i could do with a pause button!

Well enough moaning... I just popped on to share the LOs I did for the Sarah's Cards blog.... of course if you've already been over there you will have seen them, but I like them, so you can just look at them again... lol!!!
I did a step by step class on how to create your own unique painty background paper... the post can be seen HERE.
I did a clean and crisp LO too... for those people who don't do paint and mess!!!

And an inbetweenie LO that was not as painty and messy as the first, but used similar techniques.




Then I completed the post with a fun and silly LO of me and Nat sporting some rather fetching moustaches!!!


This months challenge over on the Sarah's Cards blog was set by me... the challenge is to use clothing as inspiration for your scrapbook pages. Here is my example LO, and a few close ups.... 
Play along with us, leave a link on the blog to your work and be in with a chance to win a £10 e-voucher to spend in the shop.





 I've also been playing with the Sarah's Cards July kit, which at first glance I thought I'd struggle with as it's pink and feminine... but I actually had fun with it. Here are a couple of sneaks....


 I've somewhat neglected my Twisted Sketches promoting duties... I'm so bad! Here are few LOs I did...

*Curve*
This picture was drawn by Oliver at school and was the only thing we kept from the bag of year 2 work that come home at the end of the year. It was already cut into this curve shape... perfect!

*Stop*
I think I said this word at least 50 times whilst trying to get a 'nice' photo of Oliver and Harry together.... had was playing the clown, but as it turned out, the photos of Harry the clown were fab!

*Summer*
What could more summery than a mahoosive deckchair by the sea. This photo was taken at Butlins last year... it's taken me so long to actually get round t scrapping it!

*Time*
It's Carnival time.... well Manchester Parade Day time to be precise. A fantastic day spent with family and friends, and photos scrapped on the same day... go me!


WOW!!! That was so much easier blogging with the new updated blogger... you never know, I might actually blog more often now it isn't so traumatic!!!

See you VERY soon
