WOYWW

How did it get around to Wednesday again so soon?

Well here is my table with an almost complete layout for Shimelle's 4x6 photo love class (with 8 photos!!!) which may or may not have some MME Lost and Found papers on it ;-)



I WILL be updating on LSNED in the next couple of days and also sharing photos of my re-organised workspace but I am waiting for semi-decent light to take pictures of the latter and waiting to get going on the former!

In the meantime, I can share a couple of the layouts that I completed on Saturday at the crop.



I used my Dear Lizzy papers!  And I cut them up!  I needed to have a little lay down after that... ;-)  I quite like the effect of the circley-flowery things on pop-dots to add a bit of texture.


This next layout will be featuring not once, but twice, in LSNED.  The photos were taken at Beaulieu and the children are sat in a car in one and on a truck shaped see-saw thingy in the other.  I've had the pictures out for a while waiting to scrap but I was trying to think of a suitable title when I suddenly realised that they are wearing different clothing!  I thought they were taken on the same day but it appears not - oops!  I made the journalling quite general then about how they can play together there so nicely when we are on our own.  Lesson for 3rd Sept - check the photos actually relate to what you think they do.     Ahem...


I broke into a new kit for this layout called Country Drive by Echo Park.  I love the bright summery colours and the stickers etc.


Initially I stuck the red check paper too far up and although in some lights you can't see it, there is a scuffy area where I pulled it off and moved it.  I added a bit of a green splatter to try and hide it but it didnt really work.  Anyway..  Pleased that I had completed another layout, I was eager to get it into my newly organised album.  Hence this not quite splatter effect...


Lesson for 4th September - Wait for the paint to dry before putting the layout in your album or you will get blotches where you intended pretty splatters to be.... * embarrassed cough*

What's on your desk this week?  Share your creative space on Julia's blog so we can come and have a nosey.

Bye for now xx

  4. Lovely layouts, I like the 2nd one. I see a smash book on the corner of your desk. Have you started it? Mine is still unused but definitely not unloved. Lots of paper stroking.

  5. Well done for using paper that's obviously precious to you! I get the shakes when I'm about to cut out some fabric that I adore, so I completely understand!! I've still got trimmings that I can't bring myself to use...how sad is that?? Geat LOs by the way :D xx

  6. Lovely LOs, especially the one on the kraft background, but I do have a bit of a weakness for it!

  7. Er, yes! That can happen. Though because I'm not good at putting my layouts away, I stack them up and then the pages stick together..

  16. I really like your polka dotted pink background. I decided, IF I ever get my office decorated, it's going to be pink. My favorite color is red, but pink makes me happy and so does my office (aka crafting room).

  18. Busy and colourful desk and your layouts are a treat. Oh, and the trauma of cutting up much loved paper - oh, the pain. However, it was well worth the anguish as the layout is gorgeous. The lessons made me chuckle too:) Elizabeth x #50
