Aussie Scrapjacked Young Scrapper

Hi my friends,

This post is a very special one for Christina, my youngest daughter. She decided to play along with the Aussie Scrapjacked Challenge for young scrappers, which was to jack a LO by the wonderful Ruby Bisson. Here's her entry:


Not bad for a 7-year old huh? She did it all by herself. All my suggestions were politely listened too and then discarded LOL, and I couldn't be more proud of her!
Notice that gorgeous concentrated look on her face:

Now I know that she would loooooove to receive some comments, so if you would have a minute to write a little something, I would be so grateful! Thanks!

Love xxx Peggy

  1. Christina! This is an amazing layout!! I love your use of paint to accent the photos and the stitching in the corners!

    You must be following in your mom's footsteps - a good place to be! You should be very proud of your work! :) I am so glad your mom shared it with us.

    Wonderful photos, Peggy - look at how serious she is about her art! My dd is the same way. :)

  18. Thanks for the vote of confidence for the Forward Progress Now blog. I'm a bit nervous...not sure what I will be doing exactly. But, as always, I'll just be me and roll with it! LOL!

    I LOVED your response to my post today. I feel I am EXACTLY like you. I think we could be soul sisters. I too can draw most things as long as I have something to look at. Of course, I think my talent falls short of yours, but nonetheless, I can do it. I have spent so many years striving for "perfection", the kind that I feel others have reached. But now, I only work toward being the best me I can be. Because no matter my achievement, there will always, always be someone who can do it better. And that is a good thing because it means that for everything I do, someone may be better than me, but in turn I can do it better than someone else. KWIM? That's why these blogs are so awesome. We can all share and learn and grow in the process.

    You are one talented, incredibly awesome lady who provides constant inspiration. Don't ever forget that. I LOVE YOU dearly!

    P.S. My eyes popped out of my head when I read your comment about the Forward Progress Now blog. I thought I was receiving updates to the blog, but I guess I was wrong. I had no idea Ellen had posted that. I guess it is now official, huh?

  23. Christina I wanted to let you know how much I loved your first page. I love the color and the stitching. I hope you will play along with us on The Next Step Challenge. This month is altering paper and I can tell that you would be good at that. Next month our challenge will be something that you know how to do also. My daughter started scrapping with me about your age. She is not 25 and still scrapbooks. You will have great memomories as you grow up.

    Have fun!!! Gayle
