November Layouts

Congratulations to the new DT team at SE - Megan, Neen, Hannah and Janine. Looking forward to what they come up with over the next year. Also picked up the latest For Keeps today and guess who I "found" in there - congratulations Hannah. Its one of my favourite magazines.

Have done a couple of layouts for the November Layout Competition at SE. Had to do a scraplift of one of the "old" DT layouts. The Christmas one is a scraplift of Jo's. I did it because it was simple and used up one of the many Santa photos I have. This is the one being entered. The "Cute" layout is one of Neens. I loved all the circles and it was so easy to do. Am not entering it as it is not exactly as she did. She had stamped the background with circles as well - I tried that but it didn't look right. Used up some of my scraps as well. Yahoo!


Now for a ramble of thoughts.

Tanya left today for Invercargill so "good cropping" ladies and have fun. I'm sure you will. Rebecca is currently in her English exam. Poor thing - its a stinking hot day here and she has to go through to 5pm. Alexia is having a day off study today as her next 2 are both on Wednesday. I have been scrapping finishing the above layouts and also ducked out to the shops to get some rhinestones - me who would never once have thought about including them on a page let alone going out specially to buy them for one!! Aaron has just come home from school absolutely starving - why is it that - there is no hello or anything its just "I'm hungry, whats to eat?" Still tossing up whether or not to go to the Christmas in the Park rehearsal tonight. Can't be bothered with the huge crowds tomorrow and its a lot more relaxed at the rehearsal and you get to sit right up front. Will see what the weather is going to do.

Wow - cool that you saw my layout in FK! I am still trying to get my hands on one, can't find it anywhere locally so I'm bidding on Trade Me! LOL.

I love the layouts you have done for the Nov comp, you should enter them both, a "lift" doesn't have to be literal, it can just be taking one of the design elements and rolling with it. And you've done that. Great job!
