Out of the hat

Lost my mojo this morning and didn't have the foggiest what I wanted to scrap at Daphs, so I checked out what challenges were on this month, found my self over here (again( top one)).

Challenge pieces were

1. Use some sort of distressing on your layout 

2. Use black & white and only 1 other colour 
3. Use different types of lettering in your title 

So I did this.

 Using newspaper clippings from the daily telegraph in leu of the photos I missed. Journaling says the day the wind (was not) Blue. Blue is written in orange, under the black mesh.

Sorry about the crappy full layout photo, just could not get a good one!

TGI(almost)F

Nothing seems to have been gotten done this week, a very higgeldy piggeldy type of week. The Husband was off this morning and is worried he will be sick for a gig tomorrow night (not that it matters cause after his precious eels lose, Im not sure how he will play anyway!). Tomorrow will change that hopefully.  The scrapping that we missed on Tues. we are having tomorrow, and then when the big gets home from school, its time for the dreaded bedroom clean!

Bring On Friday! 

Picture is of an card I had made previously,  in honour of the Husband - may he get well soon, cause sick hubbies are the worst!!

Orange

I love an adore orange, its one of my favourite colours. Unfortunately one the few places I dont think it belongs is the sky. 

Dust storm. 

Our reality this morning(!), which started with a phone call waking us up, telling me that No one was to leave the house.  Rod made me promise that we would all stay in doors and not open the door.  

We are an allergy /asthma house and we have lil ones, So no one had to tell me twice. 

The big was over the moon at day off school. Neither He or I could recall seeing one before. The sweet middle is heartbroken at the being stuck inside part. He keeps telling me " I not get sick". Sorry bub!!

 I missed the photo op due to running around dealing with my three, but Daph has a photo on her blog of what we woke up too! Other great photos are here, on the Channel Nine news page.

OHHH

Look here, I saw this and fell in love with these lanterns. I can picture them in my minds eye strung across the boys room and some above my craft area.  Now go look here, Ill wait till you are finished being distracted by the adorable owlies! Ok Now read under - thats me!! Im so excited! Thanks you so much Melly and Me!

Off to scrap (Well, hopefully soon if my ride gets here,) so more pics latter!

PS. Photos of the ducks feathers cause Im a lucky Duck!

A wonderful relaxing time was had by all, the most taxing thing I did all weekend was sketch a plan for my Softies For Mirabel, and that was hardly unenjoyable! 

Miss it already, esp my dad and my niece.  Though the sweet middle one is very upset that we had to leave his "widdle" house
