Be afraid...be very afraid...

Someone is teething - eeeeeeeek!  Check out Eli with his special Halloween bib that Auntie Laura bought him.

Again I've used Serif Craft Artist and the sketch from Stuck On You Sketches. 

I feel happier about my interpretation of the layout this time.  I think using the same (or virtually the same) photo three times was far easier as I didn't have to worry about part of the photo being covered plus I think it adds impact to the main photo.
I've even completed the facing page using a sketch from Sketchy Thursdays. 

I was so pleased to see this sketch as it meant I could focus on my favourite photo and really have it large on my page.

I'm still loving using Craft Artist to create pages, but will be using the real stuff as soon as I have a bit more time.  I do think the Craft Artist software is helping me to learn more about scrapping though as it's so easy to move things around and change colours etc.  It's really good fun.

My pages are also perfect for the challenges at...

• 365 cards - Smile (checked the rules and scrapping is allowed and what better smile than a baby's)
• Hooked on Crafts Challenges - Halloween
• Pollycraft - Anything Goes
• Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Have a great day all and thank so much for the lovely comments about Eli.  I think he is super cute too, but then I am a little bit biased.

More Playing...

Here's the facing page to yesterday's quick (not that quick as once you start playing with digital crafting it's all too easy to while away the hours) page about Eli.

Again created using Craft Artist and the digi kits available at Daisy Trail.  Both pages are 12" by 12".  I use DS Colour Labs to get them printed as they do an amazing job.

I'm entering my latest page into the following challenges...

• CD Sunday - cats and using a CD to create your project
• Come and Get it Challenges - Anything Goes
• Dream Valley Challenges - Anything Goes

Got a whole day off tomorrow - can't wait, but meanwhile I better go and have a shower ready to set off to work.  Have a good start to the week everyone.

Playtime...

oh so long since I did any scrap booking and I have so many photos of Eli and holidays to catch up on.  Eeeeeeeek need more hours in the day methinks!  After getting home from work today I decided to chill out and use a sketch from one of my favourite blogs, Stuck on You Sketches to do a page about Eli playing on his jungle play mat.  I'm using the term 'playing' very loosely here as it's more a case of grap an animal and gum it into submission, but hey it's all good fun.

My page was created using Serif Craft Artist - ideal for those times when you're just too tired to get the real papers and embellishments out.  No tidying up to do just a case of closing down the computer and off to bed - brilliant.

Goodnight all.
