Happy August

Hello scrappy peeps.  I hope you are well.

Unfortunately I have a head cold that I just cannot shake.  I am off to a scrappy retreat on Friday so I am hoping that another 48hours and I will feel a lot better and I can get my scrap on.
I guess it helps if I start to pack and plan first though doesn't it?

I played along with CSI this week. I could not resist the colours and the gorgeous photo certainly inspired me, as did a number of the DT girls.
I solved the case by using the colour scheme of course, my evidence was in my drips and my ribbon which I created as a frame and my testimony was my journaling to my children about their childhood. And there are 4 of them in the photo so they are my "4 favourites".


I have finished my last project for Scrapbooking Memories CT.  It has been an awesome ride and a lot more work than I thought but I have enjoyed the journey and have loved seeing my pages in the mag.  It has eased the pressure a bit and now I can scrap without deadlines. 

I have also completed my projects for my Masters entry.  I was happy with what I created (not wowed but happy) but I don't think they will be what SM is looking for. It was fun creating anyway and it's done and posted now.

So off to make a cuppa and try and tackle my packing for the weekend.

I hope you enjoy your week.
