A Challenge

Oh dear, sorry I haven't got around to blogging sooner, must try harder!! I managed to do much scrapping this week, I've been quite busy but I have a couple of layouts to show you that I haven't shared yet. This first one I did is for the 16th October challenge at The Studio. They have changed the challenges now so you don't have to do all 3 parts, they are;
1. You must use (at least) 1 new and 1 old sheet of patterned paper on your layout.
2. Use glimmer mist or a technique to get a similar effect on your layout.
3. The subject of your layout must be YOU!
So I did 2 parts of the challenge, I used my glimmer mist for the background, I love them but they are messy to use! I did use it in a pizza box but still got it everywhere!! And I used a bit of some old American Crafts paper and a bit of newer My Eye Mind paper. This is the result, hope you like it, I'm really pleased with it!!

This one is the other October Afternoon paper one I made of my little nephew seeing the animals at our local farm shop. The papers were perfect for the photos.

I cut the animals from the paper and stuck them on foam to make them stand out.

Hopefully I will get in some scrapping today, I'm missing it!!

My Mum and I made our Christmas cake this morning, it's in the oven as we speak! The mixture tasted yummy so fingers crossed it come out the oven nicely!

Not much planned for the weekend, we are looking after my nephew for a few hours on Saturday so we might do something with him.
