Scrap the Boys - July challenge

This is my entry for the July Challenge for Scrap the Boys challenge site. I LOVE this site because the LO's you have to submit must be centred around BOY LO's. This well and truly suits me being the mum to 3 boys! This months theme was "school". I have scrapped Jack's recent Grade 1 photo. Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.

Here is a close up of the flag. I love twine at the moment and used a wooden skewer and wrapped twine around it for this effect.

Once Upon A Sketch entry

I really like entering sketch challenges and am a BIG fan of the wonderful Once Upon a Sketch site. This months challenge was to create your LO based on the sketch below and incorporate the word "FRIEND". Below is my take on the sketch. It is a photo of my 2 closest friends. We have been through secondary school together and lots of other stuff like weddings, babies and lots of fun. Thanks for looking.

My take on it.

Here is a couple of close ups. The flowers I used were a mixture of Kaiser, Prima and American Crafts. I created a doily look around my circle by using my Martha Stewart punch and cutting the lace effect and layering it around the circle.

Thanks for looking. Nelle -xxx-

Welcome!

Hi and welcome to my very first post on my blog! You will have to bear with me as I learn how to use all the bits and pieces within a blog. I am hoping to showcase my work here as well as get to know some on line scrapping friends. Thanks for checking in.
