Beckie Just Blogs....

I have been chosen on the Scrapsidaisy Design Team!!! I am so excited!!! I have received and completed my first pack, but you will have to wait until after our Roundup Retreat (!!!!!!!)to see those ones.
I do have a couple of others to share though.
No 1 was for the challenge on the Scrapsidaisy Forum. So you had to use the colour red, a title starting with the letter 'O' and do some distressing of some kind!! I love how it turned out! I quite like challenges, they help me to think outside the square sometimes!! And No 2 is Little Moo. Ryan called Lara little moo whenever she had this suit on, it's so cute!!
The colours are different on this one, not what I would usually use for a girls LO. But I love it just the same!!

Well I hope you had a safe and happy new year! I did, didn't make it to midnight on NYE but had a good night anyway. We have been for a holiday to Sydney. We stayed with a friend for 4 nights, we went to the aquarium, which is so awesome!!!! We spent the rest of the day wondering around Darling Harbour, it is so great there. I have not done that before. Lilli had a great day. We went on a giant ferris wheel that was fun and a little scary LOL. I am glad to be home though, it feels like we have been gone for a month!!!
So anyway, I have a couple of pages to share.
No 1 is of Ryan, with his winning scratchie although he did not win the major prize LOL. He was excited anyway!!!
No 2 is a Fathers Day LO. A little bit late (ok alot) but I don't scrap in any particular order, I just like to do it when inspiration comes to me LOL. I love the nook and pantry PP from Basic Grey. I also used some raw chipboard thickers. I inked them pink then sprayed them with pearl glimmermist. I love that stuff!!!!

Wow!! The year has just passed on by!! I am excited it's Christmas, I love the holidays!!
Anyhow just thought I should update my blog just one last time this year, because I am sure I won't get to do it again before 2010!! I haven't done alot of scrapping but here are a few pages that I haven't shared.
No.1 is my little girl Lara with Grandpa. I love theses October afternoon papers they are gorgeous!

Next up, a LO that has been finished since before I had Lara. LMAO Oh dear!! Lilli on her birthday last year! She has since turned 6!

A couple more pages to share, the first one was a challenge over on the Scrapsidaisy Forum. You see I usually don't get them done on time, but I have been on a bit of a roll and this one was complete with time to spare lol. The challenge was to do a wedding LO. It had to include, something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. So I used some old rubons for the title, some new Glimmermist (pearl) that I absolutely love, I borrowed the photo off my sister and I also borrowed the page LO off Jules, and just some blue paper and a flower for the last bit!
This one is Lara, in her little green all-in-one suit. I love green and we called her a little frog when she had it on. (it's too small for her already) That's how the page got it's name!! I love frogs too!!!

Just two new pages to share today. The first one I started a little while ago, and just found all the bits still together in a storage thingy (LOL). So I finished it off over the weekend but have only just loaded up the photos. I absolutely love the sparkly 'thickers' they are gorgeous!!! and a bit of bling on there too. This is my neice...
I have used the new My Minds Eye papers for the next one. I do find it hard to use this kind of PP, But I am quite happy with this page. It looks quite simple but actually took me a long time to finish. I love the papers they are beautiful and I still have plenty left for more pages. I must say I really didn't want to cut them, but thats how I end up with piles of PP that I haven't used (LOL) So I just did it!!!!

.... New page, thats is, and also a couple of cards. So here is my page, I have used Basic Grey Lemonade papers, I love them, I think they are beauitful!! The photo was taken the day after I had baby Lara. Me and my gorgeous girls!! I am lucky.
And I can show these cards now I have given them to the girls I made them for!! Just some Thank You cards, for the wonderful gifts I received when I had Lara.

OMG!! Can you believe it is September already?? The year is just going by way too quick for me!! My baby girl is already 10 weeks old. And dare I say it, christmas is just around the corner.

But anyhow, I have a new LO to share, just one. lol. Actually the photo is from christmas last year. This was another August challenge from the Scrapsidaisy Forum. It was to do a predominately(?) green page. I found these papers in my stash. I didn't buy anything new for this LO, very pleased with myself.....
Don't mind the crooked paper ribbon up the top, it's supposed to be like that ;0)
I do have some cards that I made a few weeks back, I will share them soon.

So thats all I have to share today, I will be back soon hopefully.
