Oh Oh look what i made!!!

So i have these Tilda and Edwin images and am afraid to use them because well i am not a fan of cutting stuff out, and i suck at making scenes with them. I figure i am not going to get better if i don't try! So here is my second attempt! I think it turned out cute:) Let me know what you think!!!

hugs

...i'm turning japanese i think i'm turning japanese i really think so....

Well not really but i hung out with my friend Heidiko yesterday and we did some scrapbooking:) She has never scrapbooked before and did a fab job i think! She had fun too so i think we will make this a weekly habit:)

This first card was for a bella challenge:) I had to case one of Vikkis amazing cards! I kept the layout and changed the colours and image. I made this card for Yukimi who is going back to Japan this week:) She is a snowboarder so this was a perfect image!

This next card is for a swap i am in where i had to use a Sketch challenge on SCS. I chose SC157. I also incorproated BCC52...so that is why it kind of looks halloween-ish:)

This page...well its not done yet it needs something and i have to find pictures for it! The image is from Pink Cat Studio (i love their stamps!)

This page Heidiko picked the colours, they are not colours i would pick! But i made them work. I am going to use pictures from work for it:)

Today i went to the flea market and found a DVD i have been looking for...its a Skid Row video called "oh say can you scream". It is my fave video of all time, so funny!! Ummmmmm what else...nothing really i guess! lol

Have a good Sunday:)
