Catching up on Christmas Crafts...

I've got my craft mojo back at last and have been busy crafting this week including some sketches over on Creative Scrappers. So I thought it was about time I uploaded all the bits and pieces I've been working on over the Christmas break...

First up is the album I made for my parents for Christmas - we're a big family...so I have dedicated a 2 page LO for every member of the family including her 11 grandchildren. Basically my mum can now carry her whole family around in her handbag LOL!!



I made this 16''x16'' altered canvas in December for my lovely niece Laura who just turned 18. I can't believe where the years have gone as I remember holding her the night she was born. Yikes that makes me feel old!


I enjoyed doing this sketch #33 over on Creative Scrappers, using the photos we had taken recently at Capture Portraits. I absolutely love these photos and I will be scrapping them for years to come.


The next one is for a competition by Sheree, a designer on Creative Scrappers. I designed this using a similar template to the above so they will sit together nicely as a DLO in my album.





I've had this photo for over 8 years now and I was holding off scrapping it until I found the right idea and paper. It finally came together for me this week and I'm happy with it as it's one of my favourite photos of me and Eva. Don't we look alike???

And just before Christmas a friend asked me to design a card for a wedding in Dromoland castle. I made this pull out tag card showing images of the hotel facilities...
