Shadow Shot Sunday

Boating at the Lake

I have to share something with you!
I have an I PHONE!
How exciting.
Now I have never been one for technology and have never been above to do much more than txt and make phone calls so I really struggled with the idea of an IPhone.
But
When my son James got his IPod Touch for his birthday I became very, very jealous.
So a few weeks ago when feeling quite ill and dragging myself around the shopping centre after work and killing time until my Doctor's appointment...... I Got an I Phone.
Not only have I got an IPhone but I now (thanks to Glen) have some Apps.
My favorite app at the moment is one called Hipstamatic.
It is so much fun, I am loving it!
It's a camera but with these very, very cool effects, take a look.
These pictures were taken one afternoon after school. We have this amazing lake across the road from our house and so my boys trotted of with their boat to have a play.



A rare moment, James and Josh NOT fighting :D

This is Josh being a little camera shy!


And Josh over being camera shy!



Max posing for the camera.

And Max starting to get a little bored with posing for the camera.


Sammy wanting a slice of the action.

I did ask these two to cuddle up together...... this was the result!

James being Mr Cool!

We had a lot of fun playing at the Lake and I had even more fun playing with my new App.

Son, I am Proud of You

One of my favorite pictures from our New Zealand holiday. The title reads "so much like a man", "I just have to say" and the tag reads "Son, I am proud of you".
I have used a mask and some glimmer mist on the background card stock, there is a vintage book page, some raffia across the bottom and I have incorporated some vintage doily across the bottom.

Some of my Latest Creations

I was lucky enough to be a part of a vintage swap which was hosted on The Boxx. I managed to find some time yesturday to have a play and made some Christmas Cards.
This card has a stamped and embossed image which was then coloured with water colour pencils and adhered to some red cardstock. The piece of red cardstock behind the Merry Christmas title was put through my Big Shot which gives it that lovely texture.

This card was my favorite. I placed a vintage music sheet on the base and stamped some scrolls on the top corner. The vintage cherub is from the gorgeous pack of vintage goodies I got from my swap partner and I made some torn flowers at the bottom.
