Wowzers :o} Update on events

Happy Friday Followers;)

Wow! Firstly, I really wanted to say a big thank you to all who have already placed their layouts in for the October Sketch Challenge, YOU ROCK LADIES!!!! Some wonderful work being produced for this month and I think Im really going to have trouble deciding on a winner:o}.

Well the last couple of weeks has been busy busy busy for me as I have started full time work at the school in a Teachers Aide position... LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!! The position is very rewarding and helping kids what more can I say! So sorry there hasnt been more updates, but more brain has been in overdrive with mental stimulation. hahahaha I know hasnt had it in a while!!

Anyhow apart from that, life seems to be going ok! Taking each day as it comes and well really that is all we can all really do hey! I recently completed a couple of challenges for different sites which I will share with you in a minute.

Ive had some awesome news from "Srapbooking Memories" on one of the publications that is going to be in an upcoming magazine, so that's always nice to hear about!!! Keep your eye's peeled for Vol 14 No. 4 my layout will be in the Family photo section. I have a few more coming up, but for now will wait to hear on confirmations etc etc.

Ok, so in saying all of that above (pays to post more lol lol) I recently completed a Black and White photographic challenge for Scrap Therapy. The gorgeous Tiff Firth set a task of taking a B&W photograph and scrapping it. My layout is of Curtis, a picture I took when he was confortable on the couch kicking back and I snapped away....

Layout called "Mysterious Eye's"

The other layout recently completed was for a challenge site called TCR (The Colour Room), they supply a colour palette each week and you can either use the sketch they provide or your can create your own design, but you must use the colours that are supplied. Below find the colour palette for viewing and my layout called "Sweet as Cherries"... To my surprise this afternoon I received some wonderful news from TCR stating that I was selected as one of this weeks featured artist for this layout (yayyyyyy) Thanks TCR it certainly made my week!!!!

My Interpretation "Sweet as Cherries"

Ok! I think Ive fitted in as much as I can tell you at this stage, keep posted ladies as I have some more news to come... If you want to be in the running to win a colour co-ordinated pack, be sure to look for the monthly October Sketch Challenge here at SNA and send me your layout entry to scrap.n.art@hotmail.com before the 29th of October 2011.

Until next time, take care of yourselves and each other;)
