All The Singlets

At Scrap that Song this month the theme for the challenge is MISINTERPRETATIONS.

I think all of us at some stage have sung along to a song for years not realising that the words we are singing arent really the words.

The song I have choosen this month is SINGLE LADIES (PUT A RING ON IT) by Beyonce



The song was released back in 2008 when my little Holly bear was 5 years old - and what kid didnt shake their bootie to this song (or even adults for that matter - he he).

Well anyway to cut a long story short instead of singing "All the Single Ladies" she would sing "All the Singlets"

Classic..................


It's even got a little spinner that really spins - how cool


My Journalling....



I know that I have never sung the song the same way since and i'm pretty sure my family and friends all have to take a step back before singing the song now as well.

Head on over to SCRAP that Song and give the challenge a go - I need a good laugh :)

Happy Saturday

It's My Life

Hey Peeps,

There are so many fantastic songs that make us TURN IT UP as such. Over at Scrap that Song this month the theme is DRIVING SONGS - so what do you like loud?

I decided to go with a song that suited a big change I had in my life, it's all about the choices we make that get us to where we are today.

The song I have chosen is IT'S MY LIFE by No Doubt



It's an awesomely catching song that deserves to be turned up.

Here is my layout - 


Here is my journalling up close


It's a great theme this month with so many choices - good luck picking - I know the CT kept changing their minds a few times before decisions were made 

And on a last hoorah

I hope the easter bunny finds you all safely 

Sunshine and Happiness

Dawn Fairy

Morning Peeps,

I am just having a proud mumma moment that I would like to share.
My little BIG girl Holly ( who is 9 ) decided to do a layout over the weekend and used one of the sketches from STUCK SKETCHES - this is the current sketch over at the site


And this is the LO she created -





I did help her with a few techniques along the way but she executed everything by herself
Hopefully she will take after her mumma and have a love for scrapping

Happy Monday everyone

Hi Peeps,

Well I was not too sure how to tackle the current challenge at SCRAP THAT SONG because there were so many ROKin songs from the 70's so I thought the easiest thing to do was google the top 100 songs from the year I was born......and who should pop up? No one other than the great Sir Elton John


Crazy..........yep, just like me :) 
PERFECT

One of his songs in the top 100 from (gulp) 1976 was Island Girl



The first thing I thought of one one of my favourite pictures of Alecia when we went to Fiji in 2010 - crazily enough I was singing the silly song in my head the whole time I was creating the layout 


For some closies - 



Thanks for looking 
Why not give the challenge a go this month - go on relive your youth

January BOXX OF SCRAPS: New Years Eve Party - Neighbourhood Trick or Treat - Year One

Morning,

I was lucky enough to create the January Boxx of Scraps kit at the BOXX
I completed a few layouts out of the kit but the first one that I want to share is a double LO


I usually get positive feedback from my double layouts so I decided that I wanted to create something different for everyone who subscribes to have a go at.
The kit contained all sorts of yummy stuff from Jenni Bowlin, Manor House Creations and Bo Bunny

Here are the pages individually -



If you are not a subscriber to any of the kit groups I highly recommend that you have a look - they are great value for money and provide great inspiration from the DT every month.

This is the second layout I created -


And here is the third layout I created -


Just a closie of the cluster in the corner - 


Thanks for looking
