I've been busy scrapping this week...

I was only saying to Bronny last weekend that I had decided not to enter any more DT comps after the last round sucked up all my mojo for almost 6 months!! I was bored the other day and was reading blogs and checking out forums which I have been particularly slack at doing lately and discovered SO is running SO Survivor to chose 2 new DT members.

You guessed it I decided to enter, so flagged the housework and scrapped for the past 4 days instead LOL. I have uploaded my 2 LO's to the gallery in SO (shoot over there and check them out) and it was a tough decision picking 2, dunno if I am totally happy with my choice but dh was no help. Will have to photograph my altered item tomorrow and upload it. There is some fab work being entered and it will be exciting to see who goes through to the next round.

Here for your viewing pleasure are the LOs that didn't get picked. In no particular order....

First up is one that was originally meant to be a pic of my lovely friend Tammy on her own, the next thing I knew I had added the heart and the pic of her and her hubby Mike suited it better. I have known Tammy for about 6 years now and we have never met, she lives in Toronto Canada. This pic was taken at Mike's graduation, he has just qualified as a CPA - Woohoo!! This has been a long time coming for him so HUGE congrats Mike. Used Crate Paper and lotsa doodling on this one.

Next up is my lovely Dh acting silly to entertain the kids at the beach by "surfing" on Quinn's boogie board in about an inch of surf! My new fave brand Scenic Route and a bit more doodling.

From DT entries now that I have my mojo back I decided to head over to No8 Wired and do a dare, they have a scraplift a freestyler dare on at the mo so I came up with these.

First up is a scraplift of Wendy Redshaw-Bruhns. I went with my xmas card pics. I love how this one turned out. Paper is MOD from the Scrapbook Essentials Feb kit. K&Co rub ons and some 7gypsies stickers. I painted the Heidi Swapp chipboard and coated with glitter glaze.

I then scraplifted Tia Bennett and did this page of Aislinn at about 1 the first time I found her nappyless in her cot - a start of a nudist streak in her. I had fun with this one and will have to do more dares in the future instead of thinking about it and leaving it too late to enter.

Lastly here is one I did of Roxy a few weeks ago and hadn't photographed. Loving the Cherry Arte chipboard shapes at the mo.

I will update with some pics this week. I have some of Aislinn at ballet and Q all dressed up to go into theatre.

Q had his adenoids and grommets done last week, it went really well. Stinky even had a paper hat and wristband. Q was so good going under, he was really brave and it went really smoothly. He wasn't very happy when he came out of anaesthetic so they put me in a lazyboy so I could cuddle him. Once he was in the kids ward he picked up really well and was eating icecream and jelly all afternoon. We had to wait 4 hours and went to stay at dad's at 7.30pm he ate tea and crashed for the night. He slept all night and has had no pain relief since he left hospital. He was well enough to go back to school on tuesday and you'd never know he'd had an op.

I took the plunge and joined up Jenny Craig on monday. It worked really well for me 10 years ago and i figured it is probably my best bet at getting all this weight off now. It has been interesting rediscovering the food and how it all works. I am hanging out for chocolate though LOL. fingers crossed that monday will be a positive result.

Right that's it from me. Thanks to those who left comments - nice to know you guys are reading this drivel LOL "Hi Peta!!"

Have a good weekend everyone :)
