getting closer...

Our swap date is getting closer, and I'm trying to get all my canvases done before then!

Only 7 to go for me! Here's a couple more sneaks!

One for Al H:

and one for Raquel:

See you soon! xo Ali

a few more finished

although I am still far behind.

This first one is for Alison Wood.  This one got picked up and put down and started and pulled apart for about 3 weeks, seemed like I would never be happy with it, but love it now it's finished.

This next page is Raqual and the pic is of her and Ruby at a Taylor Swift concert.

My final sneak for now is my pic from Raquel Pert.  So hard to get a good pic of this one.

Last week of my holidays are flying by and am wondering where the last 3 weeks went, so much for having them all finished by then. Hopefully I will get another 3 done by the time I'm back at work.

Another sneak...

Here's another sneak peek!!

I made this over the weekend - my second Bakers Dozen layout, yes I know I'm a little behind!!

Thanks Ali!! :)

Another sneak peak

Over the last couple of months I've done 2 of my calico pages.  I really enjoyed working with this.  I think I'm going to do my own album. 

The first one I've done is Jen Wilkinsons photos.  Gorgeous pictures and the colours were so vibrant.

This next one is of a pic for Julie Haywood...a lovey dovey photo.

Can't wait to see what everyone else has been doing.  Hope you enjoy!!

More sneaks!

Hey there!

Over the weekend I scrapped my first bakers dozen layout!

The first pictures I received were from Richelle - a really cute one of her and her cute niece, Mia. I knew exactly what products I wanted to use for this page.

Here's a few sneak peeks!

Sneak Peeks

Morning ladies,

And what a beautiful, sunshiney morning it is! Hope you all have a great day.

Last night I scrapped one layout, and this morning I finished my second! Yes, I'm pretty happy about that!

The first one is my photos from Ros M ... loved the photo of her three children, and found it pretty easy! I de-saturated the photo slightly and fiddled with a couple of other settings in photoshop. I was then able to scrap this photos in creams / browns / neturals. I hope Ros likes what I have done.




The second page I have done is for Michelle. She gave me her photo when she was here a while back giving her some help (I hope) with re-sizing photos. The photo was black and white - and her favourite colour is pink! Hope you like it Shell :)

Just wondering ......

Ok ladies, no-one has braved it here and made any posts. Please feel free too. It would be fantastic if ANYONE ... yoohoo ANYONE out there, who has done any of the canvasses (*ahem - I know one person) would take a sneak peek photo and do a post. We would love to see it, and I honestly think it would inspire the others.

I would definitely post a sneaky peek if I had done one. I'm going to tonight so stay tuned for a preview tomorrow ... errr, that's as long as it goes according to plan LOL.

Even if you just pop up a post about yourself, and what you've been up to. That could be fun as well. No use me going on about myself - because you all know what I'm up to anyway hehe.

Come on girls, let's get a bit of fun happening. First person to post - I'll donate a little RAK too :)

An addition to our group

I would also like to introduce Ros Madeley from Chandon Craft. Ros has had computer problems, and hadn't had a chance to let us know about Baker's Dozen. But Ros is now back in online and would like to join us. It's great to have you with us Ros - welcome !

Welcome to Bakers Dozen

I am so excited that it was suggested to start a group of girls to all scrap together to make a very unique album over a year. Anyway girls - here's to a successful scrap year and lots of fun doing it!

I'd so love it if we can organise a quick coffee one day, all of us girls, and get a snapshot photo to pop on the blog header! What do you think?

Look forward to getting to know you all and seeing some of our projects up here on the blog.

This is not something you have to do as you complete them. Some of you may not be familiar with blogs, and that's ok .. .there's no pressure to put them here. But if you would like to - feel free.
