The color room #15

The little chick laughing at me.While is was busy taking the photos of her running in and out of the water she seen the water coming in and over the top of my feet, shoes and all.Well you can see by the pics she thought it was hilarious.

A couple of close ups.

For some reason i had to ponder this layout for days in my head.I really struggled with the palette this week.Don't ask me why cos i don't know lol.
Well only a couple more sleeps for the little miss and i and she will be seeing Mary Poppins.She is beside herself with excitement.Take care have a great week love Kerry xx

Just one layout for the week

One layout this week not many hey.I really liked the pink piaslee papers along with the Donna Downey stamp and also my fav prima.

Mikayla and i are off to see Mary Poppins next week yay.We will meet Mikayla's sister Deb there and she will have a chance to catchup with her.Mikayla is excited and scared she wants me to hold her hand as she cant remember going on a plane before even though she has at leat a half a dozen times in the past but she was a lot younger then.

The color room number #14

I just loved the colors this week so i have managed a couple of layouts one boy one girl.

Just a few closeups.

I just love this little girl she is such a character that's for sure.Sometimes she does push her luck getting cheekier by the day.But there is times that i have to hold back from laughing at what she says.At the moment she is sitting down here with her fathers mobile singing along to a pop song a Delta Goodren song and really it is quite cute.

And this is my interpretation of the color combo a boy layout and i actually don't mind it as boy colors too.I miss this boy or man should i say so much i do wish he was here and not so far away.I only have pics to remember him by and a few odd phone calls.Maybe sometime soon he might visit here's hoping.Love you Travis xx

And Mikayla version of the color combo this week she decided to draw and then add her em bellies.

And also the layout i did last week is featured as one of the artists of the week on the color room here is the link http://thecolorroom.ning.com/ come and play i think you will enjoy the challenge i know i have been.

Well have a fab week i know i will.Take care Kerry xx

The color room challenge #13

This is my take on the color room challenge i loved the colors this week.I have hand painted and color changed prima flowers and also made some crepe paper flowers and glimmer misted them too.I keep taking pics of my layouts crooked gosh i think i must go cross eyed when i photograph them.

And a few closeups.I have used my cricut again on this layout the swirls and the title were cut using the cricut.I even pulled the rose paper from the bottom of my paper stash it is and old basic grey paper from about three years ago.And of course i love this pic of Mikayla she looks so very happy here and her natural beauty just shines through.Biased mum here lol.If you are reading this thanks for visiting my blog have a great week.Take care Kerry xx

the little chick

We decided to go to the beach yesterday after Mikayla had a birthday party to go to at the fairies.On the way down to the beach front miss independent.

Well i was standing and not paying attention to where the water was and i got a bit wet, shoes and all.And Mikayla thought it was hilarious as you can see her thinking it was a great joke.The water was so darn cold.

And god only knows what she was doing here but i love this shot and the next one.

Cracking the sads as she didn't want to go home. But we did.lol.She really is a beach baby winter or summer she would live down there i think.Well have a great week everyone and thanks again for visiting my little blog.Take care Love Kerry xx

A challenge at Bons and also the new delovely papers .

And this layout i have done for the room of the month at Bons scraps i couldn't help but do it as the colors were very inspiring.Mikayla at the beach looking like a real beach baby.She loves the ocean.And when she seen this layout she responded with oh mum look at the rainbow it really is beautiful.She is such a little gem sometimes.

I really love the colours in this delovely line of papers so bright and summery.I have put a couple of shots on here to show that there is a little bit of dimension to this page.You really do loose a lot of it when you photograph it flat.

And thanks so much to all the girls that come and visit and take the time out to leave me a comment i really appreciate every single one.

The color room #12

I looked at the colors this week and oh gosh what can i do.But after delving into my stash i did find a few bits and pieces.I think that's what i like about it it makes me use all the stuff i just buy and stash. I colored the bird and flowers with water color pencils.I have also done another couple of layouts last night just have to title them and then photograph them .

color room challenge #11 another layout

I was so happy with this layout i love these prima stamps and Donna downey and Ali edwards stamps.No patterned paper just all stamping.Just to cute i think lol.

Palette 11 for the color room this week and another layout

When i got these Donna Downey stamps in the post i so had to get them out and play straight away I'm in love i think.The bottom right hand corner is stamped with them also the two little birds on the bottom right.They stamp just fantastic too.Must say they are probably the best stamps i have as far as stamping nicely.Made by unity stamps.Can you believe i actually have used my cri cut as well the title was cut with it along with the little branch on the bottom of the page.

I love these papers they are just so girl and feminine.the brand is paper mania and you get a whole pad for about $18.00 dollars i think i have made four layouts with them now and still have more papers to use.Loads more.And i love the Ali Edwards stamp too. I love the frond leaf punch fro Martha Stewart i think it will become a new fave along with the two other punches i have use on here by her.And the Donna Downey bird stamps is adorable along with the Kaiser craft birdcage.Whats not to love about the prima flowers.

Well thats me for a couple more days .Have a great weekend what is left of it.Take care Kerry xx

Color challenge #10 another layout

I really have so many pics to scrap of Travis that i thought this combo was great for a boy layout too.I have taken some close ups as to can never see the dimension used when you just photograph the layout.

Also the photo was taken by me and edited by Tess one of Travis"s friends edit and cropped it.Thanks Tess .

the color room #10

My take on the color room this week.I like doing the challenge Friday nights as i can come home from a week at work and scrap and relax this gives me the chance to chill out. The colours this week were colors i really do not scrap at all.The pic was my niece Melissa and i she could reach his face to kiss him i was too short.We were in Bath in England and it was such a beautiful spot. And i also did another layout this week for the color room number#9 as i thought i might as well use the left overs from my other layout.The flowers are mod podged paper .Janine used the same ones on her layout this week but hers were serviettes.When i seen these i remembered i had wrapping paper like this so i then thought why not use them and i cranked up my cricut machine too the chandelier and the title were made using this.The frill around the circle was inspired by Stacey Cohen.Well happy long weekend i might just do another layout tonight Col has gone to the footy.Mikayla and i will have a spa and then it will be relaxation time for me .take care Love Kerry xx

The color room #9 plus a couple of older layouts

This layout i did for the color room blog number #9.Last week my layout was featured for the week on there blog along with some other fantastic layouts too.I have used another couple of the little collections bird houses here and fabric that was left over from a skirt i made Mikayla

I done this layout a few weeks ago of Mikayla with curlers in her hair.She hated me getting these pics and was running away from me killing herself laughing.As you can see by the first picture with the face pulling little brat tee hee.And by the way her hair didn't curl hahahaha.

This layout was done along time ago of Indianna.I have used a lot of masking here.It was picked up for publication by a magazine that closed down soon after.I was going through some layouts and found it so i thought i would put it up here.How cute was she .?
