Bad Girls June 09 Project

My Bad Girls project for this month is a Mini enevlope album, with lots of ageing techniques and gesso involved! Wendy's idea for the book was to write love letters to yourself. but I am going to use it to keep all the letters I have been wiritng to Mum since she died. I feel it's the closest thing to having a real conversation with her, as if she was here and I wrote a letter to her I wouldn't get answers straight away (IYSWIM!)

Not my usual style but I have enjoyed doing it. Not finshed yet but here are some of the pages.

First LO is from June's SL kit with some added extras. Will doing his rock star stage jump off the sofa! Boys at Natural History Museum Ollie giving Will some brotherly love whether he wanted it or not!last 2 are from my first Cocoa Daisy kit.
Canvas of Mum, really please with this Mum and Will, Mum called Will her "little Man" (this is the pre workshop challenge for the Tracie Hudson workshop I am doing next week - was a sketch and had to use paint, ribbon and 5 lines or more of journalling)

Mini Book

We had Total Papercrafts come and teach a couple of classes at our weekend away, one of which was a fab mini book! The sanding was a pain so won't be doing scallops again! but I love the effect. I gave it to my Dad as the pictures are of his birthday dinner at Gordon Ramsey's in London

Finally some crafting

Finally managed to get some crafting done with my May kits!
Firstly my SL kit
Ollie has started pulling this really frowny/pouty face when he doesn't get his own way. I saw the rules on Emily Falconbridges blog - Very funny!
1. If I like it, it is mine.
2. If it is in my hands, it is mine.
3. If I can take it from you, it is mine.
4. If I had it a little while ago, it is mine.
5. If it is mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
6. If I am doing or building something, all of the pieces are mine.
7. If it looks just like mine, it is mine

Will and Ollie at longleat on Ollie's bd
My friend came down in his plane and took Will and Mike up in his plane. LHS of the LO is scrunched up and painted toliet paper! (Challenge from scrapping outside the book)

I didn't manage to complete any of the challenges over on SFIO this month but the kit was lovely so I did this Lo of Ollie from the holiday
Finally a LO with my Bad Girls kit
