November!!!

Hello weekend - you went too fast! Lucky for us down here in Canterbury, this week is a short week and next weekend is a long weekend, for Canterbury Annivesary day - am looking forward to a three day weekend.

No scrapping happening this weekend, but Project Life is up to date. I journal no trouble but only do the photos every three weeks or so, so the finding, sorting, printing and putting into the album is what takes time.

However I forgot to put up this layout last week. We were given a pack to work from at the Scrappin Patch birthday crop, and here's my take on it. We all had different papers etc to use. In it was also a pumpkin stamp - didn't think the pumpkin would go to well with the body boarding photos ;-)


This one was my take on last months sketch at Paperchase NZ's blog:




I think the weekend went so fast, because the weather is so stunning. Yesterday it was lawns and gardens and a trip to the dog park. Today we went and spent time down the river with our good friends and their three rotties. There are six very tired dogs now...



And of course kids and water...




This week Donna's house is looking like this...



Right, I'd better go!

Have a great week all!
