Hi there!
Another quick LO share in between my cleaning. I have been cleaning all day- bathroom, toilet, en suite, bedrooms, living area, doing loads of washing, folding and putting away washing, sorting paperwork- blah! I am about to tackle my scrapping area- again. I'm sure it gets messy all on its own!!! :0)
There was a break in the weather so I ducked outside and took photos of my latest two LOs. It has been raining off and on for days now.
This LO 'One Lucky Duck' is my take on Melissa Goodsell's sketch for Sketches Oz. I loved Melissa's sketch and I was pleased with how my LO turned out. Here is a close up of the little duck!
This LO 'Things You Do' is for Janine Kaye's challenge on Scrap The Girls. The LO is about how Emma leaves little notes around the place for me- on my pillow, on my scrapping table etc- she is just so gorgeous.! I have included some of the notes in the envelope.
The butterfly is a free template that you can get from Martha Stewart's website. Pretty cool huh!! Here is a close up.
Before I get back to my cleaning, here is another yummy recipe. I cooked last night and it was gone in no time!

2 garlic cloves
2 cm piece of ginger
1 onion
1 carrot
1 stick celery
1 tablespoon oil
1-2 cups of chopped cooked or raw chicken

As always I'm excited to see more of your layouts. Your so talented.
Thanks for giving me lots more inspiration.
It's been rainy and cold here in Sydney for the last 3 weeks and so it's perfect weather for staying inside and scrapping up a storm.
Have a great week and keep warm and dry. Love from Susan (smiles1965) at Scrapboxx

Gorgeous LOs Janine, love your use of colour :D
Gorgeous layouts Janine, what a great idea keeping those notes, how special is your daughter to leave such lovely mementos around for you. Know what you mean about the scrap room making itself messy, must be the night shift that comes in and messes them up. LOL. Thanks for another yummy recipe. Take care
