Screen 2 Scrap (August 2011) YOU & ME

Screen 2 Scrap's challenge this month is to use the movie poster "Holiday Inn" as inspiration, and the additional requirements included: 1. some sheet music, 2. a 2 colored title and 3. the colors red & navy. I think I've met all the requirements with this layout of Daren and myself, taken last Christmas. I've tried not to make it too Christmassy, but rather just a layout about US!!

ARTastic Aug 2011 - What a long face

ARTastic Blog challenge for August is to use inspiration from the painting 'The Playing Claude Renoir'. The additional requirements were to have a photo of a child playing, ribbon and a painted/ inked background.
My photo is of Leigh (almost 3) at playgroup.

CMIT - August. Are you ready?

Creating Memories In Time have proposed a challenge that marks the end of summer, and the start of the school year.  This layout contains an old picture, back in 1992 when my eldest started school. Unfortunately this is the only photo we have (and oh how different we would do things today!). Don't you love the jeans?
