we're going green!!

hey there...who's ready for another challenge???? for this challenge i thought we would do something a little different....i would like you to recycle something around the house by decorating it to use as something for yourself.....so grab a box, a jar, a container of some sort, a note book that needs jazzing up, anything at all and decorate it to use....

i am in the middle of decorating a box that i was given some coffee cups and now i am turning into a storage box for some of my scrap goodies....i'll post a pic of it tommorrow for you so you can see what i mean.....but if you have any questions in the meantime...just email me or ask here in the comments section...

this challenge will be due by 9pm wednesday night so have heaps of fun with it....can't wait to see what you all come up with....

more, more more!!!

it is my kidlets turn to show you their creations for the comp....they all scrapped their pages after my class today....the photography isn't great... the weather was awful by the time they finished but they had to be put up today...so here they are... first up we have chantelle (8) and her "all dressed up" page....she chose not to use the sketch but did use her fav colours of blue and pink with flowers and butterflies....she even had to pen in the butterfly's flight cause "you do that all the time mum"...chantelle even used a Krissy handmade twister rose in the centre of her flowers for her butterlfy to sit on....she had to use the good stuff thank you very much!! it is beautiful honey...you did a fantastic job!!
can you guess ebony's fav colour??? LOL.....i helped her cut her paper but she placed it on her page after very close study of the sketch...hehehehe....she put her paper flowers through the cuttlebug to "pretty them up more" then stuck them all around and added bling for centres...she chose her title of "ebony loves krissy" herself and just got me to point out the right letters...way to go gorgeous girl....it is perfectly pink and pretty! (chantelle tried to argue with me that i must have done the big flowers cause it is layered but i DID NOT...ebony has seen us all do it so often it was the first thing she did with them...pmsl...she even said "krissy would be proud of that don't you think mummy?")

my Man ethan had a quick go to with his "footy star" page....choosing blue for his colour and stars which he cut out with the cuttlebug.he had SO much fun!!!.very quick but oh so cute...good boy for having a go!!
keep them coming kids...i am LOVIN all these awesome creations!
(i have pages of my own to post but i will hold off for a while as i want the kids pages to shine and not be mixed amoungst other posts....)
