A Happy Scramper

Shabby Tea Room and MME Challenges

Hey there...hope you had a great Saturday.

I spent a few hours serving Pork Rolls and Nachos....at the school fete....it was good to be involved and meet other parents. Where would schools be at times like that without lots of parents chipping in hey....it's what you've gotta do:-))

Tonight, whilst kicking back and enjoying my creative time, I've been playing with the latest challenges from My Mind's Eye and The Shabby Tea Room....here are the challenges....

 

Here's my card based on the MME sketch and the colours and theme from The Shabby Tea Room.....

Papers are from MME Hattie Paper Pad, stamp set is Basic Grey, lace is Kaisercraft,"hello" is part of a sentiment in the PTI Think Big Favourites 3 Set, glittered Ric-Rac is from American Crafts, buttons are from my grandma:-)

Tomorrow looks like another big day....a Uni Open Day to check out, a trip to Spotlight for some work related craft shopping and then shoe shopping for DD's Dinner Dance....that should be quite enough to fill the day I think.

Lucky I'll be home on Monday enjoying the Brisbane Show Holiday....yippee!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend...thanks for popping in and for your lovely comments that make my day! 

The Shabby Tea Room and a Giveaway

 

Hey there....hope you're having a great weekend! It's a hot one here today....phew!!

Firstly I wanted to share my card for the Shabby Tea Room DT Call. You can't win if you don't try right??:-)) So I'm trying lol.

The inspiration pic for the call is this one....
