Ribbon and Rub On Challenge

Week 2 of Sharons Build It Up challenge over at Scrapbook Capital is to use Ribbon from week 1 and Rub Ons.

Here is my layout using the gorgeous Kaiser Waterberry patterned papers, a RW chipboard title, and some rub ons.

This one is Jules Christmas week 3 challenge over at Scrapping Outback. She reintroduced me to the wonderful Tim Holtz embossing resist technique and we had to make a self standing layout. It was heaps of fun.

These two layouts feature my gorgeous girl and her 'best friend' (my gorgeous girlfriends DD).

Also don't forget the Scrap Cap Cybercrop starting tonight. All things Christmas.

Christmas Card photos

On the weekend I took the annual Christmas Card photos. Em was in her element but Zoe didnt want to play the game. Here are some photos from the day.
