Kitchen Love

Good morning everyone!

This is my last LO I am sharing as a GDT for Lasting Memories, I have had a lot of fun making these 4 layouts! Thank you to Karen and Michele and the rest of the girls for giving me this opportunity, it's been great and I will definitely be back for the challenges! This week's challenge is inspired by a photo:

I've used the colour scheme and theme to scrap pictures of my daughter playing in her play kitchen, a Christmas gift from her Granny and Grandad. She is not yet 'cooking', but loves to play with the oven door (open, closed, open, closed, open.....) and dragging bits of the kitchen throughout the house. Oh well, every chef had to start somewhere, right? ;)

I hope this has inspired you to submit your own project to the challenge,
you have about a week to do so!

Challenges:

If You Give a Crafter a Cookie (Inspirational Cookie, I've used the colour scheme (red, black, white) and the heart/love theme)
My Time to Craft (Anything But a Card)
Alphabet Challenge (You Choose)

Would you like to be our guest @ Ooh La La?

Would you like to opportunity to join us for four challenges as a Guest DT? Then you're in luck, because Ooh La La is looking for some crafty talents to showcase their lovely products for a period of two months at a time. Our challenges are biweekly, so that would mean making 4 creations. If you are interested, join our current challenge "SPARKLE & SHINE" and add GDT after your name. We are looking for more than one GDT at this time, so why not take a chance and showcase your lovely crafty projects :)

You're Wheely Good

Good Morning everyone!

Did you all have a nice weekend? I certainly had, first my friend received her PhD and then we went on to celebrate my mother's 76th birthday! We just got back yesterday in a Winter Wonderland :)

But today it's back to the grindstone at work and I also have a couple of cards to show you this week. I'm starting off with my second card for Ooh La La, using the Toronto 1940s image to make a male birthday card. Perfect for this fortnight's challenge theme of "WHEELY GOOD". In other words, use a wheel somewhere on your project. It would be great if you can join us :)

Ooh La La, It's Your Birthday!

Hi everyone!

Did you enjoy your New Year's Eve celebrations? We certainly did, even if it was just the two of us. Some lovely bubbly and some yummy nibbles and Jools Holland on the telly, what more can you ask for? ;) I also received some lovely crafty goodies over the Christmas period and some money that is probably going the same way LOL.

I am starting the new year with a new challenge, as I've been asked to be a GDT for Ooh La La for the next two months, how great is that? Today's post in the first of four, this week's challenge is "BIRTHDAY". I've used the lovely Italian Window image, together with quite a few DP scraps. I seem to be loving the 'jaunty angle' look at the moment, so expect quite a few more projects like this :)
