if you read my post #SINGItForJapan then you'll get what this is about. the video is finished and the song is available on itunes with all proceeds going to red cross.

this is such a beautiful song, and i'm still shocked that my artwork was one of the few picked to be in the video. there were hundreds (maybe thousands) of submissions. i was happy that my chemical romance looked at it, but the fact that they picked it just makes me super proud.

watch the video and look out for this pic at 2.34, then download the song from itunes.

My Chemical Romance are making a special version of their song 'SING' with all proceeds going to Red Cross Japan. Their asking for videos, photos and artwork to be in the video, you can read about it on Ray's blog, so I figured I would use my scrapbooking skills to make this peice of art.

I added a New Zealand flag to show where I'm from, but then it looked weird, like I got the flags mixed up lol, so I added the Japanese flag aswell.

And here's the original version of SING, it's such an amazing song.

challenge 6 is up on Punky Scraps.

it's a picture inspiration challenge based on this pic:

here's my take:

(oh, for the love of music)

i ruffled up some lace with thread then stitched it down. the photo was kind of an accident lol, i didn't aim the camera right and thought "i'll delete that one later". but after some editing, it turned out to be the best of the bunch. plus it focuses more on my earphones and the music posters in the background, rather than on me. the journelling is some of my favourite songs right now.

i'm kinda bored atm and feel like blogging lol. i don't have any new lo's to share, i seem to have scrappers block and i've been making dolls clothes to sell on etsy =)

anyways, here's some drawings i did a couple of months ago and some paintings from my yr13 art portfolio

 lately i haven't been able to do much scrapbooking coz my dad took the laptop out of my scraproom/bedroom so he could convert tapes to mp3s or something. the laptop holds all my sketches and inspiring layouts, so it's kinda difficult scrapping without it, and he just doesn't understand that lol. but at least it's given me a chance to make some christmas cards, i still have about 5 more to make.

and in the spirit of christmas, here's an awesome song by an awesome band:

this is the band that started my music obbsession 5 years ago lol.

 i used some badges that i bought a couple of years ago and never really found a good use for.

yet another music layout. this band sings hate songs, so this lo kinda reflects their style lol.

another lo to go in my 'favourite music' album. i started this one last month but couldn't think of much to write other than "awesome". so i left it on my desk for a couple of weeks just waiting for inspiration to strike. i finished this a few weeks ago and i'm finally putting it on here (still getting used to this whole blogging thing lol).

another layout to go in my music album. i cut the embellishments from a cereal box and doodled on them.
