<br />
So far I have managed to complete 3 out of the four challenges.<br />
<br />
<u><strong>Challenge #2</strong></u> -Sports stars and this month Layne Beachley is the focus.<br />
<br />
<span class="postbody">1. Layne Beachley has won 7 world championships so have <span style="font-weight: bold;">7 of something on your layout.</span>
<br />
<br />
2. She has had a lot of personal struggles, being adopted early in her life, and losing her adoptive parents. <span style="font-weight: bold;">So I want you to use a technique that you struggle with, whether distressing, using sprays or anything. </span>
<br />
<br />
3. Layne Beachley has a foundation called "Aim for the Stars" The
purpose of this foundation is to inspire and motivate women across
Australia to <span style="font-weight: bold;">“Dare to Dream, Pursue their Passion and Aspire to Achieve”. I want you to take this quote and base your layout around it.</span>
<br />
<br />
4. Layne Beachly's name was originally Tania Maris Gardner and it was changed when she was adopted. <span style="font-weight: bold;">I want you to alter something that is on your layout.</span></span><br />

My 7 is the 7 clear film frames, using glimmermist on male layout is something I struggle with, the quote inspiration is the title (which means strength is adversity and this is the last thing the Norwood players read before they run onto the ground at home game) and wording on the photos (which are on the wall in the players gym). Something altered is the chipboard footy which I have inked.<br />
<br />
<strong><u>Challenge #3</u></strong> - is the sketch below<br />

<br />
Brandon commenced his Bachelor of Education and Bachelor of Arts, he has another 3 years til he finishes.<br />
Taylor completed year 12 last year and did exceptionally well and will commence a Bachelor of Nursing at Adelaide Uni this year.<br />
Hamish will commence year 11 this year....only 2 more years of school fees...WooHoo.<br />

Hamish's Tea Tree Gully Team made it into their 5th Grandfinal and in a row and again they achieved the ultimate sucess. Hamish was also a member of the Norwood Under 16 squad who also achieved sucess in winning their Grandfinal. Unfortunatley injury in the major round cost Brandon a spot in the sucessful Gullies A grade team who won their premiership and were promoted back to division 1 for this season. <br />
<br />
In 2012 Taylor had her school formal in May and in November she had her graduation from school.<br />

I am off to a good start with scrapping this year. These 2 layouts are both challenges for this months challenges at <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=43">chook scraps</a>. The boys have all decided they wanted to return to golf and have reactivated their memberships. The koalas have had a few scares in their first few rounds but they are all improving. <br />

He particularily likes the main photo as he believes he should have been awarded a free kick for hand in the back.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPQDneMZWnpdSsah1al0JQ8DsXeqUECFNA8mpRHmI0jz7Cmm8wJdFRL6jDK0n32v1WXL78G6Y6pLJv9l_3VOV-QVWHOC1dLcC-ZOzv6gLp5h5JWa9Yv2VUXBnVV9tkVvbIrUoCEBt-zsaD/s1600/Karen+Kowalick.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 394px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5583787291894785026" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPQDneMZWnpdSsah1al0JQ8DsXeqUECFNA8mpRHmI0jz7Cmm8wJdFRL6jDK0n32v1WXL78G6Y6pLJv9l_3VOV-QVWHOC1dLcC-ZOzv6gLp5h5JWa9Yv2VUXBnVV9tkVvbIrUoCEBt-zsaD/s400/Karen+Kowalick.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div>Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06978483442426255448noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596460048133992387.post-85209198504768856602011-02-27T02:27:00.000-08:002011-02-27T02:32:49.869-08:00Just reflectingThis time 18 years ago it was just Craig and I, we knew we were about to become 3 but not sure when this event would actually start, I was already 6 days overdue and more than ready to deliver.<br /><br />This night 18 years ago was the last night that we were two as about this time on February 28th I was admitted to hospital and on March the 1st we became parents for the first time.<br /><br />Now tomorrow holds a new and exciting challenge for Brandon as he starts his job, I hope he enjoys his first day even though it is a rather early start.Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06978483442426255448noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596460048133992387.post-10411696051414393862011-02-19T01:49:00.000-08:002011-02-19T02:03:00.258-08:00Some recent work and a surprise for hard workBelow are three cards that I have made for challenges over at <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/index.php">Chook scraps</a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5JIJ1GwuE-4yvuR7KJvXx07G_PdIrMy1ZgFbKvapVXwN2R7ch-GvPc5lFc_nEKJxj-3AtyTZ0_U-UvUb2eS1Ul1jKso109wvTlvHgN0gtXW0Vh04aP_4Sr6YpUClB4d209BmS9mlHerwo/s1600/IMG.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 292px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575336473075546434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5JIJ1GwuE-4yvuR7KJvXx07G_PdIrMy1ZgFbKvapVXwN2R7ch-GvPc5lFc_nEKJxj-3AtyTZ0_U-UvUb2eS1Ul1jKso109wvTlvHgN0gtXW0Vh04aP_4Sr6YpUClB4d209BmS9mlHerwo/s400/IMG.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZUj1W640kxTtBxKaSOQW3cMUndKgtwnfrwRMwaLbOlWfwT5Q6Lp7Tj4sTXL24jRWS2YUk6t5pvV_hGIj0gkbhG_5Wqg5rgYX31d2sIVQMAv8wPTv_gR0pgdJWLMYcoYwH3AV963iGJ0k_/s1600/IMG_0002.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 309px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575336385431155954" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZUj1W640kxTtBxKaSOQW3cMUndKgtwnfrwRMwaLbOlWfwT5Q6Lp7Tj4sTXL24jRWS2YUk6t5pvV_hGIj0gkbhG_5Wqg5rgYX31d2sIVQMAv8wPTv_gR0pgdJWLMYcoYwH3AV963iGJ0k_/s400/IMG_0002.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiRFq_xAaefBQsGfQRlLOGTK_F6cR3iIlZMPOYTkiAWbH73VcsnqnF6F1YCrSC8mn2_CMGw21IrLiejD1vWxKyT5Or7lxKdk0bQpaE2q25iDRxpATB4wZkPvlQW4gEJsa2Oca1phkkW2av/s1600/IMG_0001.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 285px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575336303757057490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiRFq_xAaefBQsGfQRlLOGTK_F6cR3iIlZMPOYTkiAWbH73VcsnqnF6F1YCrSC8mn2_CMGw21IrLiejD1vWxKyT5Or7lxKdk0bQpaE2q25iDRxpATB4wZkPvlQW4gEJsa2Oca1phkkW2av/s400/IMG_0001.jpg" /></a><br />And this was the suprise that was for hard work.....Hamish was in the top 10% for boys in academic achievment in year 8 lst year.

Five other junior Gullies teams have also made the finals this year. So it will be a big weekend for the club this weekend, hopefully we will have at least two of our teams playing at the same venue.<br /><br />Brandon's 18's Gullies team lost their grandfinal yesterday and it was difficult for Brandon to sit on the bench and watch. Hopefully when we see the surgeon later on this week he will just advise physio and rest. He now has pre-season to look forward to. On the positive side he now has more time for his year 12 studies.Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06978483442426255448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596460048133992387.post-80442216083518552482010-08-05T00:15:00.000-07:002010-08-05T00:32:29.715-07:00Ingeborg's blog candy<p>My friend Ingeborg is giving away this great selection of goodies this month.

He shared the day with 3 of his team mates Jake, Matt and Cameron. It was a big game against Walkerville who has previously beaten us on Mother's day, but this time the result went our way and the boys were able to celebrate their 100th game in style.<br /><br />I have used the sketch form <a href="http://scrapbookingcompetitions.blogspot.com/">Ingeborg's scrapbooking competitions</a>, which is also a page maps sketch.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPMj91M5wQyywd6ard6rDYcOe-RU4XCJRZeR65KL0XxsEyR0lHuYzxr6K-xLO5Vy2hM-Ma31uNZkpVHpZTD5uu0wgVMPbEEDCQyV8priSFcEkISruWIz8PM-KF7lAoJDGE3dienPAD7c-x/s1600/P8010051_edited-1.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500213368055352450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPMj91M5wQyywd6ard6rDYcOe-RU4XCJRZeR65KL0XxsEyR0lHuYzxr6K-xLO5Vy2hM-Ma31uNZkpVHpZTD5uu0wgVMPbEEDCQyV8priSFcEkISruWIz8PM-KF7lAoJDGE3dienPAD7c-x/s400/P8010051_edited-1.JPG" /></a><br /><div></div>Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06978483442426255448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596460048133992387.post-7825004002705332662010-07-29T15:51:00.000-07:002010-07-29T16:28:17.866-07:00July updatesIt's been a busy month so far. It started off with Taylor turning 16 and for her birthday I took her to Melbourne for a couple of days of retail therpy. We had a great time and got a lot of shopping in. On return from Melbourne Taylor ventured off to motor registration to get her L's and now she is wanting to drive any chance she gets.<br /><br />Football season is coming to an end....well the minor round is. Brandon will play finals for Tea Tree Gully 18's and they need to win the first final to stay in the hunt. He has been playing well in recent weeks. He gave us a bit of a scare last Sunday as we feared he had fractured his jaw, but thankfully x-rays at this stage have ruled this out and it appears he has strained the ligaments on the left hand side of his jaw. He is only able to eat soft foods as it still is painful to chew. Hamish's team is sitting on top of the ladder and will definately play finals and should finish the minor round on top as they are 3 games clear of the two teams in second spot.<br /><br />Taylor has commenced certificate 3 in retail through bakers delight and on completeion of this course the points she gaisn can go towards her 200 points required for the SACE.<br /><br />Craig has returned to work after 3 1/2 months of long service leave....and no he did not complete all the jobs that he wanted to....but he did have a good rest from work.<br /><br />Scrapping has been a bit on the back burner in the last couple of months. But I managed to complete all the challenges at the recent CC at <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/index.php">Chook Scraps</a>. The theme was Harry Potter.<br /><br />This layout of Hamish was for <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10776">challenge #3</a> which was a sketch designed by Lorraine. The photo was taken of Hamish when he played mini league earlier this year.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwoSDCA2AcqDu8yI2tVNWDr58uGxwlz38CFhwGLpYx5USb1bEzDSnqa0Oxu29MixTgL7ZwQJoQ6uGj34GHh3srN6hMVuHxKU61e8ravcRn0zug2EjHaQ3mWxCRc3e07g5DAKcDrffDMM4t/s1600/P7180187_edited-1.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 397px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499465472674248418" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwoSDCA2AcqDu8yI2tVNWDr58uGxwlz38CFhwGLpYx5USb1bEzDSnqa0Oxu29MixTgL7ZwQJoQ6uGj34GHh3srN6hMVuHxKU61e8ravcRn0zug2EjHaQ3mWxCRc3e07g5DAKcDrffDMM4t/s400/P7180187_edited-1.JPG" /></a> This layout was for challenge #2 and the criteria was<br /> use a proper nun in the title (Harry Potter's name is always used in the title)<br /> some stars to represent the magic in Harry Potter's books<br /> some purple as it is often connected to magic<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIu5jEVkU_1D2fKqLrB5ZUUCX3845UGkyxeIwt-aQW63fIs_fPq3KfRICSiG7MKDr57jLdOsrZcOJZooQw7vmARhLx_VN56HA0MBMNO_MCNXc7jjZ1vfqCTHD2j19bSstV5ULMk3m4GonQ/s1600/P7180186_edited-1.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499465348664479202" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIu5jEVkU_1D2fKqLrB5ZUUCX3845UGkyxeIwt-aQW63fIs_fPq3KfRICSiG7MKDr57jLdOsrZcOJZooQw7vmARhLx_VN56HA0MBMNO_MCNXc7jjZ1vfqCTHD2j19bSstV5ULMk3m4GonQ/s400/P7180186_edited-1.JPG" /></a><br />Challenge #4 was the card challenge and I choose to use the colours of Slytherin....using only green and silver<br /><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZjMttRKQrLCGfNe5lKCPEy3lRAB0aE4gJGzwankMQgwA_xY5fUBeY7iz61y8zvehtwGDvKhRiR8HVP4PlsAatm9YeB7G_u6xB8evmeHbUKsnLNNxJnhxgkTJtLlnZ85fIkkQ1hWhyVmQX/s1600/P7180183_edited-1.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 289px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499465051016334786" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZjMttRKQrLCGfNe5lKCPEy3lRAB0aE4gJGzwankMQgwA_xY5fUBeY7iz61y8zvehtwGDvKhRiR8HVP4PlsAatm9YeB7G_u6xB8evmeHbUKsnLNNxJnhxgkTJtLlnZ85fIkkQ1hWhyVmQX/s400/P7180183_edited-1.JPG" /></a> </div><div>Challenge #1 was a spell and the spell criteria was</div><div> one of cardstock, two of paper'</div><div> three of ribbon and use a stapler</div><div> add some stamping and some bling</div><div> and some flowers and some inking</div><div> hubba, bubba, cut and paste</div><div> mix and stir, then finish post haste.</div><div> </div><div>Yes our cat Milo does rule our house...she has such a tough life...NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8zU_Y6p4wT-ASPpyVcKK0-gNeWz8avb1JSTDhW_dqUgqgFp5HqYciumxIFX_at-F8BxWEFbz1jSl9wECwevdyDoSg4ohIBZ-dvUxFaTd16JwNhDQrxTq4-NVOhDH24aCLJNmJQSyRVedY/s1600/P7180181_edited-1.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 398px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499464822745351490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8zU_Y6p4wT-ASPpyVcKK0-gNeWz8avb1JSTDhW_dqUgqgFp5HqYciumxIFX_at-F8BxWEFbz1jSl9wECwevdyDoSg4ohIBZ-dvUxFaTd16JwNhDQrxTq4-NVOhDH24aCLJNmJQSyRVedY/s400/P7180181_edited-1.JPG" /></a><br />If you are after some inspiration for scrapping why not check out the <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10702">non sketch challenges</a> or the <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10700">sketch challenges</a> or you may like to check out the <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10701">card challenge</a> at <a href="http://www.chookscrapsscrapbooking.com/phpBB2/index.php">Chook scraps</a>.<br /><div></div></div>Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06978483442426255448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596460048133992387.post-33734520616764761452010-07-04T13:39:00.000-07:002010-07-04T13:41:17.683-07:00Happy 16th Birthday TaylorI can't believe that Taylor is now 16....wow has that time flown by quickly.
