Sometimes...

Life gets you down... especially when you have the flu!!!!
Does anyone want it cause I'm over it.... really!

But at least I felt better on the weekend to participate in the cc over at Chookscraps!
So here are my layouts....




There's one missing but I can't upload it yet as it was a blind scrapping challenge so I can upload it Wednesday... I think!

This is my tag...

It's the first time I've tried the resist ink technique over heat embossing... happy with the way it turned out!

I also managed my layout for the challenge for guest designer for chooks as well, but not sure if I can share it here... will find out...

Now I know you visit... so would love to hear what you think of my layouts... please?????

No photo today... but I did scrap some more challenges!

This one is based on Groundhog Day, so the criteria was 6 photos/pattern papers or flowers (I went with photos!), a shadow on the title, and a repeating shape.



Challenge 5 was a word challenge... love



And finally I did the second sketch challenge...

Did you hear the silence???

Cause I did.... the kids are back at school and dh went off to work so I had the house to myself today and for the next 2 days!!!! This is why I took a week off work!
I love them.... but sometimes I really need the quiet!



So in my year of learning to relax what did I do today.... scrapped of course!!!

These 4 monthly challenges from Chookscraps...

This one had to have Blue, 2 photos and a reference to friendship



This challenge was based on the legend of the snowdrop, had to be on a white background, contain wings and a teardrop shape.



One of the sketches...



And a word prompt challenge... the word was sacrifice.



There's 3 more challenges and another sketch, so depending on what I feel like doing I might work on them tomorrow.

I hope everyone in Queensland stays safe.

Yeh I've been slack...

well I have and I haven't...

I've cleaned house, done the washing, scrapbooked and what I really wanted to... relax!

So there's been no photos... you get that!

But scrapping... yes...

I've been working on 2 whiteboards for the last couple of days. I've done them up so that they can go on the wall above my scrap space, and I can put layouts on them on display and be able to change them.

So here is what they look like...



Each board....





And here are some details pics...









And yes I know one board is darker than the other... I was hoping it wouldn't be noticed, but it is... but there were problems on the creating side... the question is, how noticeable it is, and whether I should try to fix it or if it will make it worse...
I will wait and see...
