Sketches in Thyme #122

It is very exciting that Sketches in Thyme is up and running again. After it finishing up last year I noticed that completed layouts of my son, especially when he was a baby, had diminished.  So my task of using the sketches from the Sketches in Thyme blog to complete only photos of my son has just started again. Yay! Here is Sketch #122 As we are currently on our Summer holiday by the beach in our caravan I had to be clever with what I would take to scrapbook. I couldn't (unfortunately) take my whole collection. Actually, it would be great to have my own caravan for scrapbooking (shhh! Don't tell my hubby! :)).  Anyway, I thought Santa photos would be the easiest. Here is my take on Sketch #122. I have used the Simple Stories ~ Handmade Holiday Collection .

Two posts in one day - wow!!! I have started participating in #fmsphotoaday. The creators of this challenge give you a prompt each day with the purpose to at least once in the day stopping and reflecting on life and what goes on around us. It has been heaps of fun finding something in my days to match the prompt but also to stop and think about what is going on around me. I also see it as a record of my day/months/year and hope to use the photos in my Scrapbooking. Well that is the intention anyway. Here is the collage of the first week of #fmsphotoaday.... Enjoy your weekend. Mel x

5 months between posts is far too long! A lot has happened in that time...a very busy work year, a trip to Thailand (check out our blog from our trip at fieldfamilycv.blogspot.com.au), Christmas and a New Year plus lots of other bits and pieces. Probably the one constant is my creating and making. Unfortunately the busyness of life stopped me from posting it all here but head over to scrapbookitblog.blogspot.com to see what I have been up to. Speaking of Scrapbookit...today my first post for the New Year has gone live. Here is a sneak peek of the star album I have been working on... To check out my project head over to scrapbookitblog.blogspot.com. A few new things for this year...well there is only one new thing...#fmsphotoaday! I have decided to participate in the #fmsphotoaday. You can check out my photos on Facebook or Instagram. If you are not on Facebook or Instagram I will do a collage of my photos every few weeks and post them here.  I will conti
