Hi everyone! I've been a naughty blogger this week haven't I?!
But I have had no option - I have been busy-busy creating like a worker bee in my studio & have some sneaks for you that you will only be able to see in the Feb/Mar edition of Scrap 365 Magazine!
But I have had no option - I have been busy-busy creating like a worker bee in my studio & have some sneaks for you that you will only be able to see in the Feb/Mar edition of Scrap 365 Magazine!
I can show them here on my blog eventually (in May 2014!) so rather buy the mag LOL. It's lovely to have in any case. Subscribe HERE!!
Well THAT was fun!
This one is a 'lite version of mixed
media for when you want a quick fix :)
And this one is somewhere in between the two...
Now time for my Bloggaversary Giveaway winners for my giveway here!
Woot Woot! Congratulations Ava!!
You are the winner of Giveaway 1 {the 3 stamp sets}
And to answer your question - "What was your first layout about?" -
I remember my first layout was about a trip to Ratanga Junction Theme Park in Cape Town, South Africa,
when we were on holiday there many moons ago
{my youngest daughter was a few months old}.
I remember it took me 4 hours to make - with the help of a teacher - & I hand-cut around some giant bubble-style letters to spell 'Ratanga' & 'fussy-cut' a very basic Palm tree - but
I remember I felt like the bees-knees &
it was one of the funnest things ever!

Now onto the Winner of Giveaway 2!
Congratulations Chantal!
You have won the mists - and I am so happy about that because
I know you love bright stuff so they will be perfect for you!!
To answer your question -
"How long does it take you to create a layout?"
There is no simple answer to that!
On average it takes me 3 hours to create a layout
but sometimes I can do it in 1 hour & often I can do it in 2 hours,
then occasionally (but not often) it could even take me 4 hours!
These times include everything - from selecting {and finding!} the
stash I'm going to use, to putting it all away again & cleaning up.
I have a very small studio space so more often than not I clean up
as soon as I am finished. These times DO NOT include printing
my photos. I do this roughly once every 2 weeks & spend a
couple of hours editing photos, printing them & cutting to size.
Please contact me with your email addresses ladies - so I can
get these goodies in the mail to you as soon as possible!
My Scrapmatts Giveaway winners will be announced SOON!!
