My Guest DT Layout for 'Scrap That Poetry'

As the winner of challenge #14, I was invited to be the guest designer for the current challenge;

Here is the poem:

Woman WorkChallenge #16 by Maya Angelou

I've got the children to tend

The clothes to mend

The floor to mop

The food to shop

Then the chicken to fry

The baby to dry

I got company to feed

The garden to weed

I've got shirts to press

The tots to dress

The can to be cut

I gotta clean up this hut

Then see about the sick

And the cotton to pick.

Shine on me, sunshine

Rain on me, rain

Fall softly, dewdrops

And cool my brow again.

Storm, blow me from here

With your fiercest wind

Let me float across the sky

'Til I can rest again.

Fall gently, snowflakes

Cover me with white

Cold icy kisses and

Let me rest tonight.

Sun, rain, curving sky

Mountain, oceans, leaf and stone

Star shine, moon glow

You're all that I can call my own.

I chose the last 2 lines of the poem as my inspiration.

Luv Shelee xx

I'm going to be PUBLISHED again!

I Am Creating!

Hello Followers!

I have been busy creating but unfortunately can't upload any of my creations as they have all been Design Team submissions for ARTastic and my Guest DT Spot for Scrap That Poetry. I also scrapped '10 Quick Cards' last night to submit to the Stamping & Papercraft magazine to see if they are intested in publishing them. I am busting to upload them all but I must exercise patience!
I am receiving the new Kaiser 'Hey Birdie' PPs today or tomorrow, so look out for some creations featuring those very soon!

Happy creating!
Luv

Soul Scrappers Photo Swap #2

I swapped photos with Erika, from the USA, and here is the layout I have created using her photos. It is her daughter, son and hubby exploring the wonders of Little Otter Creek in Spring 2008. It was so much fun to scrap photos of subjects I've never scrapped before.

I sent her a photo of Holly. So as soon as she posts her LO I will show you all here too!

Luv Shelee :)
