I have finally done some scrapping, the lovely Heidi hosted a CC over at SM on the weekend and these are my creations of the challenges. I haven't scrapped in ages and the challenges have been an inspiration for me to get back into it.

This one here is Challenge 2, there where 4 colours combos to choose from I choose the 2nd combo. I am quite happy with it.

I have used purple and jade cardstock and a pp scrap that I had in my stash. The stamp is a Kaszazz stamp and flowers made from punches. Kaiser Rhinestones in the middle. The top flower is also punched but in vellum, which I prestamped.

This was from Challenge 1, we had to make a A5 mixed media page first then use it on our LO.

On the background white card I have used a red a blue smooch spray then smudged them, then I added paint which I put onto corregated paper then pressed onto the card. I punched out a circle and bits which I then stuck down, followed by stamping on a Kaiser stamp with a faded technique using black stazon ink. I then inked the edges. I am quite happy with it as I haven't done much of this before. It really gets the creative juices flowing.

Then I added it to my LO.

I tried a different techniques with this photo. Just having a little bit of colour with the black and white photo. Quite simple to do and very affective.

I enjoyed my scrapping and I have 2 more challenges to do. One I have already started and the 2nd, I still need to think about.

Thanks for stopping by, leave a comment if you wish.

I'm Back

Well hi everyone,

Don't know if anyone reads this but what the heck. We have finally moved back into our house after 2 1/2 years of renovation. Not finished yet though. But at least we are home. Will be getting back into scrapbooking when my lovely studio is finished be fitted out, it is full of boxes at the moment.

My boys have a big year this year with Anthony doing Year 12 and Ronnie doing Year 11. They are studying like made already.

I am waiting on the hot water service technician as we have no hot water, very frustrating but the plumber has been back twice and he thinks it must be the hot water service it self. Heres hoping that it gets fixed today.

Have a good day and thanks for reading.

New Layout

Just a quick blog with a layout that I have completed for a swap I did. Really enjoyed playing with a girly photo, makes a nice change from the boy ones I usually do.

Also don't forget to check out my other blog: http://jenniskaszazzworld.blogspot.com/ would really like some followers.

I have a new blog

Oh my god I cannot believe how long it has been since I have blogged. Such a long time. Many things have happened and we are still busy renovating. I have become a Kaszazz consultanat and thought that I would keep my creation for Kaszazz seperated from my others. I have put up some cards that I have made and some workshops. Please check it out http://www.jenniskaszazzworld.blogspot.com/ Will try to be a good blogger and post soon.

ALO's, a CJ and a card.

The Manufacturer's Challenge at roll2create this month is Kaiser, this is my example. I have also finished my entry into Tamara's CJ (tickled pink from SM forum) for the Life experience CJ. And last lastly a card. Ronnie DS2 has been invited to a 13th Birthday party.

I am off to Queensland tomorrow with Ronnie, we are going up there for the Mens Gymnastics Australian Championships where he will be competing at Level 7. I am going as a chaperone.

Thanks for looking.

Two Icon's Die

It was sad to hear the news that both Farrah Fawcett and Micheal Jackson have died. I grew up with them both being major parts of my life.

Charlies Angels was a great show when I was a teenager and was a ground breaking television show for women.

Michael Jackson was the most famous and loved star of my generation and although controversial in the latter part of his life he was a megastar.

My thoughts and prayers go to both families.

Surprise Cyber Crop

Well last night we started the Surprise Cyber crop over at roll 2 create and 2 of the 5 challenges where set.

Challenge 1 (my challenge) is to create a LO that has a surprise or hidden photo/journalling in an unual way, you need to use ribbon and also bling of some kind.

These are my examples for the challenge, if you would like to take part in the CC go on over to roll2create and join in the fun. Tonight there will be 2 more challenges for everyone. And Saturday night we will be having a Cyber Crop technique class, which once again I will be hosting.

It should be loads of fun. Thanks for looking and don't for get to leave a comment would love to hear what you think.

Thanks for looking.

OMG how long has it been.......

I can't believe it has been so long since I blogged, I have been so busy with work and life. Thought I would let you know that there is a Cyber Crop on at roll2create which I am hosting it should be a lot of fun. Starts Thrsday 26th June with a few challenges and games and the fun continues till Sunday. Hope to see you all there. I will be putting up some sneak peaks later in the month. On the home front we have been busy with gymnastic competitions nearly every weekend. DS2 has made it into the Victorian State Team and we will be going to Brisbane in July. Yippee. He also had the Victorian Championships on last weekend (5th - 8th June) and although he didn't have the greatest competition as he is still recovering from being sick and a sprained ankle he cam 3rd in the All Around competition and then got a silver medal on Rings in the apparatus finals. I am so proud of him.

Will try and blog again soon.

Challenges from Roll2Create

I have completed 4 challenges from Roll 2 Create, some I am happy with and others I'm not.
This first one was for the Technique Challenge by Cas, you had to use Fozz felt as a mask. Not really happy with the results of this one, I got the paint everywhere. Now this one I like it was for the White Space Challenge by Michelle and I love how it has turned out. simple but nice.

Another one that I am not absolutely that keen on but it is growing on me. This one was for the Black/White Challenge By Lady Grace.

And this final one is of my Art Journal - Challenge 2 byRuby. I enjoyed doing this it was fun.

That's it for me.

We have some exciting news at our house: - We have a new puppy, yet to be named. These are the fist photos of her. One with me at work. I had to pick her up and take her to work with me.

Of her gorgeous face. She is a german shepherd and she is adorable.

I have also been busy doing some scrapping and I have just been asked to be a site mod over at roll2create next step is to get a DT position somewhere. I was shocked when Caroline asked me, I have never done anything like that before but it is good experience. Anyway here are my latest creations.

A swap with Logan from the SM Forum.

This months swap is with lele from the SM forum, I really like this one,

A swap sketch challenge for Keza

This one I did for the CC over at Top 50 not really happy with this it needs something else any suggestions are welcome.

This was from a Random Challenge at 123, where I had to use paint, bling and 4 photos. I was pleased with the results.

Another one from the Top 50 CC you had to scrap about your insecruities.

Well thats it from me for now will try and update with some better photos of the new pup and hopefully with a name.

Busy Time

Well I have been busy getting back to work and getting the boys back to school. It has been a hectic couple of weeks especially with the Bushfires here in Victoria. DH has been working up at the bushfire sites and comes home tired and full of terrible stories. But I have managed to do some scrapping as well. Mainly for challenges and swaps but at least I am getting photos scrapped. I have been experimenting with different techniques and styles and am happy with the results.


I have also been taking some self portraits and getting use to taking my own photo with some good and bad results, here is a couple that I like.

The Valentines Day Card I made for DH, it was also from the monthly sketches from the SM Forum.

The next two are for Caroline's challenge from roll2create this LO you had to do about someone you love and journal about why you love them. Of course this one is about my DH whom I love to bits. The journally that is under the photo.

The LO.

This is one I did for the monthly swap at SM, I really like it, it turned out great. I also used it for Week 4 of the 45 week challenge at top 50 where you had to use a song in the LO. This one I did for the monthly sketch challenge at SM Forum.

Week 2 of the 45 week challenge at top 50, a sketch challenge this week

This one is for the monthly sketch challenge at Top 50. I really like this one, it took a long time to do as I played around with the photos and could decide on what PP to use but it eventually came together.

That's all for now I have a couple more LO's that I will be finishing today so will post them later.

Thanks for visiting my blog, don't forget to leave a comment would love to hear from you.
