A Bit of A Catch Up...

We had a great family weekend. Kayley and Emma played in the town band for the Anglican Fete and the Relay For Life. What a day. It was so hot...and they had to wear jeans!! I worked on Sat - i even snuck into the loungeroom on the lounge for a shut eye- funny how i only got 20min and next it was "mum, kayley did this". Andrews mum was completing the Relay for Life. So we decided to go down after tea and complete a few laps of the footy ground with her group. I ended up doing 7 laps.

Yesterday was spent at home with lots of people stopping by our place for various things. The girls loved going on the slip and slide all day. I decided to start cleaning out clothes cupboards which i am about to go and finish. I was rudely interupted by that bottle of wine!LOL...

So i better catch up on a few challenges....

Bird Is the Word


ADORE



Our new challenge word is ADORE! The word ADORE should be adaptable (I think) in many different ways. Your pages could feature your children, grandparents, parents...even your animals/pets.

I did a double page layout for this challenge using the Kaiser Animal Party collection.

As most of you know, our design team votes on a winner and four featured winners for each challenge. The winner of the challenge will receive a kit from Tidbitz In Time.

Here is Mary Thomas sketch design for this challenge
(sketch use is not required to win the challenge)
