Sunday afternoon ...

... here's what I did for the rest of the day!!

Sun 1pm - Twisted Sketches challenge - to use their sketch and a 'Count your blessings' theme
Sun 11am - Lisa's Rock Chick challenge. OK so I was a bit off the wall with this one as the challenge was to use Rock Chick as your theme and I've journalled about DD1's rock collection!!!!

Sun 5pm - Sketchy Thursday's Sketch challenge. I've added extra paint since I completed this LO as the photo didn't feel very anchored. Had to use water as the theme also.

Sun 7pm - Cathy Zielske set the grand finale challenge to scrap photos from one day. I've chosen to document our camping routine.

I completed 14 out of the 25 challenges, really happy with that. We can carry on uploading until 7pm tonight, but in reality I don't think I'll manage any more LOs. Really hope I manage to win a prize!

Now I need some new stash!

Sum up Sunday ....

1. Favourite photo - desk mid cyber-crop

2. Favourite project - this adorable pincushion! Would love to try and find some time to make one of those.3. Favourie blog post - Red Art Scrapping. Love the projects Karen made for the last Scrapbook Inspirations Magazine especially the little file folder recipe book.

4. Favourite purchase - Jamie Cullum's new album - The Pursuit

Am loving Don't Stop The Music particularly!

5. Number of LOs completed this week - 17 thanks to the cybercrop!

Sunday morning ...

... just waiting for the next challenge to go up before I decide what to do next, so I thought I'd share this morning's creations.

Sat 5pm - to use handcutting and stitching Sat 9pm - to use a PencilLines sketch

Sun 9am - to only journal with 6 words

Saturday ...

... just time for 1 LO before taking the girls to their swimming lesson

Sat 1am - to use bright colours on kraft. I also used the latest Sketchy Thursday sketch. After swimming and taking the girls to a friend's house for lunch I had a bit of time to do some catching up

Sat 11am - to scrap your favourite view. This is of the harbour where we stay when we go to Mallorce.

Sat 1pm - was a colour combo and sketch challenge.

Sat 3pm - to use what's on your desk. I choose to use up the contents of an almost finished Scarlet Lime kit.

I think that'll be me done for the day. Off out for drinks with the girls tonight, so hopefully I'll start afresh tomorrow morning (head permitting!!!)

Friday night ...

... so The Studio's charity crop started last night and here's a quick update of what I've been up to (sorry about the photos, they were taken last night)

7pm Challenge - to scrap vintage - I chose a old pre-school photo 9pm Challenge - to scrap with scallops
11pm challenge - to scrap a Halloween photo with non-Halloween products and to complete the LO in less than 30 mins
I finished scrapping and uploading at about 12am, which is way past my bedtime! The challenges continued to be posted every 2 hours through the night and I caught up with those this morning.

This weekend ...

... I will be hanging out at The Studio's Charity Crop in aid of charity:water - click the link for more details. Starting at 7pm tomorrow and lasting for 48 hours there will be games, challenges, prizes and special guests including Cathy Zielske who is setting the last challenge.

Last night I took part in one of the pre-crop challenges which was to create a LO in black and white, plus one other colour taken from your photo.

I was thrilled to find out this morning that I'd won the challenge!!

I created another PencilLines LO the other day aswell, using the photo that Audrey took of us at our Scarlet Lime Retreat. We're all holding LOs made with the September kit!!
