Count Me In…

I got sent the fairly new Sassafras Lass ‘Count Me In’ papers and element stickers from Anna’s Craft Cupboard this month, and at first I thought OMG what am I going to do with these cutsie girly papers..

Well here is what I did with them(journalling not done due to layouts being of someone else’s child)

I’ve Been Busy!

getting stuck right into this months Challenges before my DT kits arrive has proven to be very productive.

Challenge Heaven always prove to provide me with so much inspiration, I cant help but get stuck right in.

Their SKETCH is so cute and I just had to scrap these picture of Charlie at his first ever Book Week Parade. He didn’t want to dress up, so I convinced him to wear these glasses and go in disguise like the mouse and strawberry in the book ‘ The Big Red Strawberry’…. he was happy with that.

And I love their theme this month, Birthday Cake photos…..who doesn’t have a gazillion of these about??? So I scrapped Angus’ birthday cake this year… his Star Wars Extravaganza R2D2 cake

Now the lovely Lisa Warren challenged me yesterday to do a layout with the following criteria- No Ink(WTF), No Cardstock, Multiple pics, 1 word title, and polka dots

This is my Layout using the criteria!

Colours – RED, YELLOW, WHITE and PURPLE
