Another year...

...older!

When I was thinking about my layouts for my Sarah's Cards blog work, my impending birthday came to mind and I thought that it would be a good time to do some documenting about myself as I hit the halfway-through-my-thirties mark.


So this layout is all about my 'Facts and favourites right now'.  I make lots of similar pages for the kids but hardly ever scrap about myself but I really enjoyed doing this one.  Need to feature myself a bit more often!

I also made this layout for Evie, using the same supplies:



It's challenge time on the blog using a sketch by Jen.  This was my take on it:


A badly lit shot of scruffy haired children but also one of a precious moment.  I cherish the imperfect pictures; they capture our family life and moments that we'll never get back.  It's also pretty impossible to get all three children to behave for the camera!

There's still time to have a go and enter for a very generous prize :)

Fab layouts! I should do a big 40 layout for me and that got me thinking, we need to do one about our other halves!

I love that last one especially (though getting to know you better through the first one was fun too!) - the photo is lovely and I really like the way you've anchored all the elements down the right. Oh, and the heart is a great touch. :)
