*this girl scraps*

Once upon a time, there was a girl who, when she became inspired to create, she scrapped and then blogged about it to other creative souls...however the 'blogging' part of this story has been forgotten for a few weeks! oops! sorry about that, although the last few days were 'un-bloggable' due to a silly blogger fault thing that I just wont try to understand!

So to share some pages from Shimelle's NSD (national scrapbooking day) challenges! which were so much fun, I wanted to do them all, but ended up finishing only 2.

Here is my LO for Challenge 1- To create a page, using patterned paper as your background. I have been almost drooling over this woodgrain paper from AC's campy trails collection (lush!) for soooo long, and just haven't wanted to cut it up, so it was perfect to use for this project!

This is the my layout for Challenge 3 - To add a border between two photos! I also used last weeks SOTW as the page design, and love the finish of it! I think that I will probably use this sketch again, maybe turning it around?

Sorry that these shots are ridiculous! I just didn't have time to get my camera out...
