Yellow and black!

Hi everyone! Tomorrow is a Public Holiday here - Queen's Birthday. Yeah!!  Long time no blog!  I've been super busy the last couple of weeks. No time to craft or even blog visit!! Sophia had her first cold so can you imagine??? ME!!!

Sleepless nights plus among other things!!!  Winter is here and not to my liking. 

Anyhow I managed to create a layout which was inspired by

 Scrap Around the World June Mood Board Challenge 14.

I don't think I need to explain what inspired me... it's seems pretty obvious=The colours!!
Here is the mood board:

And here is my interpretation:

Although summer starts a little later this year... but we had the longest stretch of heatwave compared to past years! like 40C+ for 4 consecutive days!!!... and with my luck... I have to be pregnant on my last trimester!..I think my baby is a trooper.... I survived without any complaint or pain... I am really blessed...she is one strong baby girl!

JUST FOR FUN!!! - I am playing along with ScrapAround the World: February Challenge....

Tranquillity....

Happy Tuesday all!

 

Nothing much from me... just enjoying this whole nesting thingy...

Met up with my BFF bella for brunch earlier today...

The nursery is almost done...just waiting for the stroller and the baby cot to arrive!!

I've got 4 for weeks to go...[hopefully!]

I don't get much sleep these days....but I'm not complaining ..  because other than that I've been very well and healthy....[hopefully it stays like this!]

 

Today layout was inspired by

Scrap Around the World: January 2014 Challenge #9 - A soft & Beachy mood board by Kim Ewins

The Mood Board:

1) I was really inspired by the serenity and calmness of this mood board!

This is exactly how I am feeling right now.

2) The softness and pastel color.

3) The lights on picture 4 inspired me to stitch up these hearts, feathers and butterflies together.

So there you go... here is my interpretation

Princess Arissa....

Hello there...As we speak.... I'm a little under the weather....
Down with Flu [cough & Fever too]

Being naughty instead of resting!!!....
I did one layout which was inspired by Scrap Around The World - First May Challenge

 

 I was inspired by all the images on the mood board!  The background patterned paper I chose was inspired by the 1st photo ..flowers/plants. As all photos have turquoise color in them, I decided to incorporate by using lots of  turquoise  - the paints, faux stitches and the patterned papers.  And of course I worked closely using the sketch!
