Some layouts to share

Thought I would share the layouts I managed to do at our scrap retreat last weekend. I managed to complete 5 and start a sixth (which I am still working on). Considering I had no idea what I was going to do when I left home, I am very happy that I managed to get these layouts done. I have a huge backlog of photos to scrap. I still have photos from Chloe's formal, the Scrap of Faith Retreat, Chloe's Validictory Dinner, Christmas, Our Holiday in January, The RLO Farewell, and Chloe's 18th to do, so I really need to find some motivation again real soon. I need to give my scrap area a huge clean up and I plan to finish doing that before the weekend so that I can scrap this weekend while Steve is up at school marking exams.

I have to apologise for the dodgy photos. The weather has been awlful lately, very overcast and dull so it was hard to get a decent photo. S

Becasue I haven't scrapped for such a long time, and didn't have a lot of mojo or creativity. I found this sketch from this site and used it for my first layout. Sort of helped to get the creativity flowing again.

This sketch was the inspiration for this layout.
After this I was on a bit of a roll and managed to do the next few.
This layout is not quite finished, I still have to do the journalling over the painted area.

We are in State of Orgin fever in this house at the moment. Chloe has a group coming over to watch the first game tonight, so is busy making pizza's as I type. The house is decorated with balloons and streamers.
Three guesses who we will be cheering on tonight.

Go the Mighty Maroons.
