Cybercrop weekend

I've had a very busy cropping weekend, what with the UKS cybercrop and my all-day crop at Nicki's yesterday. I am a very slow scrapper, so I only managed 4 layouts before the deadlines. These are the cybercrop layouts. I'll upload the others tomorrow when I've photographed them.

Shop Signs

This was a challenge to do a symmetrical layout, with 4 of everything. I used BG Two Scoops paper (with a symmetrical pattern) and Prima flowers.
The photos are of hanging shop signs in Winchester, and this will be eventually be a double layout as I have some more photos and some journalling to do. For my album about Winchester.

Little Witch

This was a ribbon class. I only had an hour to do this one before the deadline so it's a bit plain for me. Think it needs some stitiching around the edge. The paper is from Me and My Big Ideas. Photo is of Sophie last November in the little hallowe'en witch's dress I bought for her.

Simply Sophie

This was a challenge to use lace somewhere. I only had this sticky lace so I just added a border at the top and bottom. The buttons were from the Early Learning Centre and just seemed to be the right colours to match Sophie's clothes, and the flowers were drawn on acetate with Sharpies and cut out. A bit of a hodge-podge of styles really.

Delight in Everything.

This was a class by Artbase using a pre-cut chipboard frame. I didn't send away for any kits, so I cut my own frame out of card. Took me for ever to get the apertures to balance properly for my photos. I used BG Two Scoops paper and buttons and Prima flowers to finish it off.

Watch out! I'm 3.


This layout was done for the weekly challenge on UKS. Use sketch, use black and white, use stamping and use flowers. I turned the sketch on it's side to accommodate my photosThe paper is by Tinkering Ink and the felt die-cut strip is by Prima.
I thought I'd better scrap these photos of Harry as they are of his 3rd birthday party last year, and he's now nearly 4.
