Stuff 2 Scrap - Rachael's Challenge Sketch!!!

Hello to all my friends out there!!!
I'm so so sorry I have not commented on your blogs over the past few days I have been a lil SICK!!!! :(

Still not 100% so just another quick post today!!!

I am here to share with you Stuff 2 Scrap's Rachael's sketch challenge.....

The Sketch can be rotated, flipped or mix it up a little as long as it is recognisable....

Also a couple of extra criteria’s

1. Butterfly or Butterflies

2. Some stitching hand or Machine

3.Whilst Stuff 2 Scrap Chipboard would be Better  - Any chipboard is acceptable.....

Here is the sketch:

and here is my take on it!!!!!!

Now for the three criteria's, I have used a S2S Bird Chippie which I used liquid pearls on it!! and also added an extra chippie up the top there.....
I have used 2 Large butterflies and 2 small butterflies and the third criteria is the stitching!
I have hand stitched in two places!!!!across the top of the photo on the left side and on the paper on the right side!!!! Both in black!!!
I so enjoyed this challenge So a big thank you to RACHAEL!!!!

Sorry there is no close up's today as they don't want to turn out properly for me!!! LOL

Have a great week and I promise as soon as I get better I will be commenting on each and every blog!!!

Take care

Once Upon A Sketch 1st September

Hi to you all I hope you week is going just fine!!!???


I did the fabulous Sketch challenge over at OUAS I so love love love doing these challenge...
 I truly do think that Nadia is one very talented person and is one heck of a great Scrapping buddy!!!!! **HUGS** to her!!
Please let me give here a massive boost here, as I was one of the Random winners last month YEEHHAAA!!! for me!!!
It took her 2 weeks to send me the prize (which let me add was not long at all, I had not one problem with it taking that long!!) but she felt so so bad about it taking that long, so she added a few extra goodies in my prize for me!!!
WOW I have to say she really is one dear special person!!!!! Thanks so much NADIA!!!! I loved my whole prize and the extra's!!!!
Okay enough of that mushy stuff now
Here is the sketch for this fortnight:

and here is my take on it:

as you will see I have turned the sketch on the side!!

First up are some close ups!!

This photo is special to me as it is really the only one that I have of when I was pregnant with my first Corey!!

as like many of you I was not much of a photo person then, it all started when my Boys were born!! and has never stopped since, if anything it has gotten worse LOL!!!!...........

One Last post Before the Month Ends!!!!

Hello to you all!!!!
And a Very warm welcome to my newest blogger buddy WELCOME!!!!
This month I was able to squeeze in White With 1 Challenge and I so love IT!!!!!!
the challenge was White+Purple+Doodling!!! I so had to do this challenge as my Boy Corey's favourite Colour is PURPLE!!!!! Some people tease him by saying that purple is a girls colour but you know it has never bothered me as he is an individual and he has his own opinion on what he likes and does not like!!!!! ( that's my look on it anyway)!!!

So here is my layout!!!!

This photo was his first day care photo back in 2007!!! 

look how young he looks!!!!!

He was 3 and a half in this photo he is now 7!!!!

OK as always 

Thanks to you all for your lovely comments 

They mean lots to me!!!

**HUGS**

Take Care
