"A piece of cake designs" and some Cyber Cropping

Well, a couple of weeks ago I took part in my first ever Cyber Crop over at Scrapboutique to help me get out of my Scrap booking funk.  It worked as I managed to create 3 LO's in one weekend using the GORGEOUS May kit from A piece of cake designs . If you have not seen the kits , you really MUST. They are so well put together that not getting a gorgeous LO together is impossible..

So for the first challenge to the weekend a Speed Scrap challenge was assigned by Leanne based on this sketch .

Well, let me tell you, the kit that I had on hand lent it self so well to this sketch that I managed to pull off my first LO in over 3 months (eeekkk) .. But this was my interpretation ♥ I also managed to try out my new Mister Hueys white mist that I picked up from Sassy Scrapper.

Saturday was kind to me .. Hubby was home so was able to tame our rug-rats as I squeezed in some more scrapping.. Bless him.  So first off was Chelsea's Challenge where using up scraps was our task.. Sooo I Hunted around my desk and found the off cuts from speed scrap LO and managed to use those scraps up, and this was the end result . ♥ Now for this LO I used inspiration over at the "A piece of cake " blog. (Remember I have been out of the game a while , so need a little nudge ;)

Then lastly I had Karen's Challenge to conquer. Here is a list of the requirements:

My challenge to you is to REDUCE REUSE and RECYCLE!

I would like to see you:
Reuse - something that has been used before eg. concert tickets, receipts for recent purchases, shopping bags
Reduce - your stash by using at least 4 pp and 3 different alphas
and
 Recycle - a scrap related item eg. packaging, tissue paper or twine that scrap supplies come wrapped in, pizza boxes.

Phew.. what a challenge. Annnndddddd here is the LO..

I even managed to win this challange.. high fives..

I had such a BLAST taking part and feel so very lucky to have been supported and encouraged by the ladies over at Scrapboutique. I am now looking forward to the June Cyber Crop and am now more than ever keen to get back into my love of scrapbooking ♥
