I've Slowed Down!

Well, my goal of having my Hawaii book done for Christmas is no more.  Really, I've been working on a bunch of other projects, too, and it has just gotten too far behind.  I will finish it, though.  Until then, I've done a few more pages!

Hoppin' Down the Bunny Trail!

Well, I must admit that I am falling behind on my Hawai'i book.  There is just too much life going on!  Christmas probably won't happen but we'll see.

So, you'd think I'd done an Easter page from my title but I had fun using an Easter kit to do this totally non-Easter page.

Crazy Week and Crazy Good Designer!

This month we have a new guest designer at Oscraps who goes by the name Jimbo Jambo Designs.  She is a template designer and her work is just fabulous.  I have had the amazing opportunity to work with some of her templates and here are my results.

Well, I've gotten a few more pages done and here they are...

Waikiki Aquarium
I just love these templates that I used.  Simple, clean and lots of room for photos!  Perfect for this page.

Getting There!

Well, I have not made as much progress on my Hawai'i book as I had hoped, but I have made more progress than I thought I might, if that makes sense.  It helps when I have such wonderful products to use!  Oscraps is full of beautiful items!

These first couple of pages are for some of the monthly challenge at Oscraps and I love the inspiration I got from them.

Beach
This was for the colour challenge - such a perfect palette for our beach days!

The Blowhole
This challenge was about contrasting your type with the background.  I think I did an OK job, but it's not as dramatic as I would like.  However, the challenges are about inspiring you to get your scrap on and it worked for that!

Exotic Beauty
This collaboration from the Oscraps designers was just the perfect, gorgeous thing to scrap the pictures I had of these exotic flowers!  I don't usually use such a colourful background but I really love how it turned out.

There are several more pages for my book and I can't wait until I make even more progress.  This will be so cool once it's printed!!

Until next time...
