2 New Challenges

Ok, not as new as I would have you believe - these challenges have been up for a while. But the good news is you have until the end of the year to complete them!

Firstly, over at Child's Play, we have a Christmassy Challenge - using "Twas the Night Before Christmas" Book as inspiration -

Last year we had Christmas at home and spent Christmas eve looking at Christmas lights around Canberra. This year we will be at Mum an Dad's so a quick walk around town to check out mighty Mulwala's lights (not too bad actually) and then if the weather continues the way it is, an after dinner swim...

And then over at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge we have a generation theme happening -
show us your generation layout - maybe you have a wonderful 3 or 4 generation photo that you treasure?  If so, feature it.  Maybe a nice photo of your grandparents?  Then scrap it!! An object that belonged to them?  Scrap it or scrap a photo of it!




This is a much younger me, visiting my Nan with baby Matt in tow. She was able to feed him and have a good cuddle, she passed away when Meaghan was a little baby so she didn't get to meet her.

I've got a few interesting things happening in the next few weeks that I have to get on top of - but all good fun. Henry is the only child left at school for the rest of this year, everything is slowing down before mad Christmas rush. The house is starting to take shape, the first of the frame is going up but the builders spend an awful lot of time looking at plans and shaking their heads is ominous ways...

Have a great weekend. xx

I love what you've done for our blog at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge - you are an awesome designer. And I'm LOVING what you've done for the Christmas layout!! The use of white space on all your work is always so clever, and these two layouts are no exception.
