Clever Miss little legs

Look at what my beautiful Miss Little Legs made!

She did all of the sewing and gluing herself- with a little bit of help holding things.

That's my girl :)

Studio 12 by Polkadoodles- there's goodies up for grabs!

For this Studio 12 by Polkadoodles DT piece, I've made a couple of art journal pages, using the Picknix collection Volume 1.  I wanted to show that art journal pages can be made using anything! I went for a colour theme and chose digi papers and elements from the CDs that fitted in with my theme.

They're all about my beautiful daughter, who got up on stage on holiday and sang a song in front of a packed room. As she's always been extremely shy, it was a huge break through, and worthy of commemoration in my journal!

I do like the natural elements on this CD, there are lots of drawn items which are lovely, but sometimes, especially in an art journal, you want a photograph of something real to tat about with!

I'm entering this into the Allsorts challenge - Anything but square.

Scrapbook pages are HUUUUUUGE!

I've scrapped.

For a challenge.

It doesn't come naturally.

12 x 12 pages are so flipping BIG!

I did quite like the photo choosing bit though. This one makes me happy, it's Miss Little Legs at her Tae Kwon Do grading last October. She was an absolute star in a big sports hall with lots of people watching her. Then afterwards when I'm still choked up and watery eyed and fit to pop with proud mommy-itis, she gives me this smile that says I know what I've just accomplished and that I'm a star, and I'm cute too.

She's a little belter, my girl.

Miss Little Legs is a card maker!

This is my little girl's thank you card for her nursery teacher. She will be very sad to leave him this week, but is equally excited about starting full time school in September.

She's only 4, and this is a portrait of her teacher- for some reason he has lots of fingers and red toes!!!! She got the wavy hair right though.

A princess name plaque for my little princess

My lovey Little Legs (aged 4) has been a very big girl and has slept right through the night for a whole week. TO celebrate, she asked me for a pink picture with her name on for her bedroom this morning. Mommy worked her magic and Hey Presto! here it is......

It's a 10 x 30cm canvas (just under 4 x 12 inches), which I sprayed with Candy Pink Cosmic shimmer mist, then swished it around with a paint brush to make sure it covered all the white. Then I sprayed with more Candy Pink and a splodge or two of Mallow Blush. Once dry, I stamped over it with some foam swirly stamps and foam letter stamps in Blazing Red Stazon, I find anything less permanent doesn't stay put on the coloured canvas.

I'd already coloured a Kraftin' Kimmie image with Promarkers, so on she went, along with some paper flowers and a generous dotting of Stickles.

She is very pleased with it, and is already asking Daddy to put it on her wall!! Not bad for a morning's work, eh?!

I'm entering this into.......

the Kraftin' Kimmie challenge which is Anything BUT a card,

Phew! That's a lot of challenges, and a happy girl :)
