Have spent the last two days doing some scrapping and polishing off some projects from the pending file.
It's been immensely satisfying and the results are not too shabby.
A very special photo from our wedding. Shelee sent me some beautiful stickers last year and as soon as I saw them I knew they were perfect for this. Didn't have a clue how to go about journalling for the page, but got some inspiration...and a library pocket template...from the scrapbooking pages on about.com. I wanted to semi-hide the journalling as it is personal, but I needed to do it in a space efficient way.
I'm somewhat ashamed to say that this layout has been in the projects pending file for over a year. I had the background done and the photos and buttons but didn't have a clue on where to go from there. Aquamum passed a whole pile of scrapping stuff to me that a friend of hers was giving away. The diecuts from one of the kits were perfect for this. The diecuts lead to the raffia, which lead to the titles and in about an hour the project was finished. I am very happy with it.
Follow the link to see the card I made for the second challenge. The instructions were to complete a photoshoot for Christmas and then incorporate one of the photos into a card suitable for sending. I was very happy with this one and might end up printing multiple copies and sending it...one of the simplest cards ever.

I ended up entering it in the competition even though I hadn't planned to.
Went to Mum and Dad's last night and dad was showing off the shelves he's put in the laundry for mum.
"Shelves in the laundry? Happy thought, indeed" (10 points if you pick the quotation :P)
They are exactly what I'm looking for! A couple of those little numbers at the back of the craft desk and I will be set for life. Can't wait to get my hands on them.
