Our Sleeping Prince

Here is our darling Dimitraki …
what a peaceful baby who loves his sleep …
so like his daddy in many ways …
as my Mom would say!!! LOL 🙂
This layout was done for my Yahoo group and we had
the chance to use a Cherie sketch, one she did for us …
and here is my layout:
I’ve used a Sarah’s kit once again …
I’ve put some American craft decorative tape over the pattern paper.
The title is rubons which I’ve outlined using my Sakura starburst pens …

Glamour and excitement

What else could this layout be called??
🙂  LOL 🙂
Here are the girls, on a night out in town …
hair freshly cut,
dressed in their fav clothes,
ready to hit the town ~~~
To make the photo pop off the black,
I painted a frame in white, and a bit of pink,
used rubons on it, and placed the photo with 3D foam pads …
Some paper, ribbon, and a bit of doodling around ..
and voila!!!

Thanks Friends

This weekend has been a long weekend for me …
I’ve had a fair dose of family time, 
visiting a cousin in hospital,
Sunday lunch and afternoon at my aunts,
visiting with another aunt,
but have managed to sleep a lot
and get some scrapping done …
I’m working on a mini book which is almost done 
and have managed a few layouts as my yahoo group has been having
a Musical on line crop which has been fun … 
 
This layout is another one about the wedding that my friend
Zeffy had invited us to …
I had already printed out the photos for the Crafty Croppers crop, so got out my square punch, and started cutting up photos and papers … I’ve used some foam pads on some of the photos to give them a 3 D effect, have used rub ons … and some butterflies that my friend Roula had cut for me.

Some close -ups … 
Photos have been taken with new camera  and I’m still trying to get used to it!

Sassy Sketch May 21st

Good morning everyone …
For my non Greek friends, 
today is my Nameday!!! 🙂
St. Constantine and Eleni Today …
Cherie has outdone herself again, with another brilliant sketch …
I think this one has to be my favourite so far,
but then again that’s what I say about every month!!!
Isn’t it a great sketch?
To see more inspiration go on over to their blog!
This is want I’ve done with it:
‘Wedding Bliss’
My friend Zeffy, invited us to her daughter’s wedding ….
My Faye and Panagioti have a beautiful life together …
a few more details:
The papers are from a Sarah’s kit, I think March’s … church stamp is Unity,
charm was given to me by Zeffy,
feather, initials and paper that I stamped the church on, and journaling hearts are from the invitation!
