The third week of March photos.

When I go on a scrap camp, I never get anything finished. I'm a real 'keep adding' kind of a scrapper, and have learnt that if I take everything with me, then it's a long time to unpack ;-) Instead I don't take much anymore, get the basics done and come home and continue to play. As such, Miss Beverley, I will be putting up my layouts on here...but I will be drip feeding them on lol. The first two are here:


Thanks to my twinnie, whom I pinched the sketch for the firs layout from!

I'm also working on a very special project from camp. Megan Gourlay put together a kit and I was lucky enough to buy the one spare kit. I'm making something for a man in my life's birthday, and it's off the page (and you know I don't 'do' off the page ;-) so can't say anymore than that lol. That Megan is a very talented and clever woman.


Some days our house is a bit of a circus, when you have a few animals and they are a bit nuts, then it's not hard to get a photo that's 'funny'.


Those same dogs love a kill any soft toys that can be found. Lucky for us we buy them for fifty cents each at the local Salvation Army store. Here are my 'before and after' shots.



I'm not a huge lover of ice cream. Last year Dad introduced us to frozen yoghurt ice cream. We ate one tub last year. We've brought another tub this year. Because Lyall doesn't like it, Donna and I have the very odd bit of it - it should last us a long time. Where as he goes through a tub of ice cream each week lol. So here is my photo for the prompt 'delcious'.


I can't go out of the house if the bench isn't clear and the beds aren't made. Mum always said that a house looks clean if the dishes are done and the beds are made, and that's stuck LOL. So here is my 'kitchen sink'.


An 'animal'. Meet Charlie. Charile is a rooster. He's our natural alarm clock as he crows at ten to seven each morning. What he doesn't know is that we get up an hour earlier than that. Hmmm he should be right on the ball next weekend when daylight savings ends!


Last one for the week is 'breakfast'. No I don't eat this everyday. Kind of would like to lol. One of my all time favourite Sunday morning breakfasts is a toasted bagel, with cream cheese and tomatoes off our tomato vines - especially if they are slightly warmed by the sun.

Have a great week everyone.

Janine said...

love the wedding layout.....as for that brekkie yum. I am with you on the beds and dishes....now that we havea dishwasher they tend to go in there. And anything that needs a handwash I tend to pop in the sink until there is enough to warrant running the water.

Super layouts. Love the colours of the wedding one. Wish I could take minimal things to scrap camp - it took 3 nights last week to get organised for ours however it is a good chance to have a big tidy out of the scrap room. Have a good week. Look forward to seeing more of your creations.

Cool pics Trace! Love the doggie ones of course, and I hope yours don't progress to the Brodie habit of pulling apart dog beds too! Well, its only the poodles beds he tries to kill, never his own! LOL!

Very nice layouts:) I haven't touched any of my half finished ones since I've been home! A wee laugh about your ice-cream thing - we're no big eaters here either, but it is nice to have some in the house if we get the urge!

well go you on the 'adding' cos I'm kinda like that myself ... gotta keeping adding stuff to my layouts.

But I've been known to ummmmmm ... take a wee few things to scrap camp ... hope Miss Meg isn't reading your blog ... rolling my eyes.

Hannah said...

More wonderful photos! Your breakfast looks yummy, I might make myself the same thing today! I can't believe the damage those dogs do to the poor soft toys ... lucky they are cheap! Buddy doesn't care for any toys at all, he won't even fetch a ball. Funny how they are all so different :-)
