Some Wickedness!!!

 Hello!!!
Well I thought I would share my layouts from the Birthday Cyber Crop over at Wicked Princesses on the weekend:)
I must say I loved all my pages and enjoyed chatting away with all the girls on the forum. The only challenge I didn't get done was Kirstys card challenge, because I am scared of doing cards:( Maybe next time........(if I am brave enough!)
This was one Krissys Blind Scrap:

This next one is Krissys Sketch Challenge. You also had to use embelishments that spell out a birthday type word. My word was cards (canvas paper, alphas, ribbon, diamontes, stitching)

This next one was Kirstys Challenge. The criteria for this one was to use a candle and had to be party food inspired! (I dripped candle was over my page and my inspirational party food was liqourice allsorts)

I am so happy with how they turned out!! The girls over there are just so nice:) and very talented. I love how they share ideas and comment on each others work, very cool!!
Hope you are having a good day, I'm off to finish my housework (actually start) and find my naughty boy:))

The joy of Kiddies!!

Well we have have some sleepless nights here:( My poor little Gracie girl has had croup and now has contracted a virus that is going around.
But in true Grace style she still has the energy to pull her sisters hair!!!!
Here are a couple of layouts that I done on the weekend. They are from the cybercrop that was happening over at http://www.scrapbooksavvy.com.au/ I only got two completed (as I mentioned sick kiddies), but I am really happy with them. The first one is the Blind Scrap held on Saturday night, my first game of Bingo too don't ya know, and I love it:))), the page that is.....

The papers I used in the above layout are from The January Kit over at http://www.wickedprincesses.com.au/ and I am pretty sure they are currently reduced so go and have a peek. There was heaps in the kit and the colours are so versatile you could use them for any type of layout:)

And the next one was Kaylas Challenge. You had to write a love letter, mine is hiding under the blue paper in an envelope.

Speaking of Cybercrops there is one over at http://www.wickedprincesses.com.au/ this weekend:

Don't you just love the cake:) I tried to make this cake for Graces 1st birthday:) Didn't turn out exactly the same, but here was my attempt

Ok I'm off to get everyone ready for the day!!!

Bye

A couple of cards and some blue & green

Well it's Saturday arvo and my DH is at cricket so I have been busy with the kids, swimming lessons, craft and a bit of housework.............. We just a storm, but didn't get much rain out of it, although its meant to rain tomorrow.

Well the countdown is on to Kate's Retreat. I am excited but a bit nervous as well (hope I can keep up with all the speed scrappers)I'll just have to get organised and print some photos. I am so use to just printing them as I need them at home:)

Well I have a couple of cards that I made yesterday. The first one was for some friends that have recently moved house:

And the next one is for my friends new baby girl Marlie.

And this is my layout for the February Colour Combo Challenge over at Scrapbook Savvy.

My inspiration for these cards and layout cames from Scrapbook Trends Magazines. You can just buy an online copy and save it to your computer (great for the environment and you get it straight away:O)

I am hoping to join in my first Cybercrop at Savvy this weekend, just see if I can get the kids into bed and myself organised before the BC starts at 8:30pm.....................

Saturdays Share!

Hello! Well it is Saturday afternoon and pouring rain, so what a perfect excuse to scrap and waste time blog hopping on the computer:) I am off to a fancy dress party tonight, op-shop cocktail party, I have been given a few outfits to choose from and Lily has been inspecting, so I'll share a photo at a later date (maybe)!!

My first couple of layouts are from Blind Challenges over at http://www.scrapbookingfromscratch.com/

And this next one is my entry for their monthly sketch challenge.

 I love this paper pack from Crate Paper!! It is called The Bliss Collection, and is very yummy:) I can see myself using this lots and lots!!!
Oh and some news!!! I won a prize over at http://www.wickedprincesses.com.au/ (insert happy dance here).
I know the prize is drawn randomly, but it is still very exciting for me!!! I won a $10 voucher to spend instore (another excuse for me to shop), so if you are looking for inspiration check out this site. The girls on the forum are very nice and extremly welcoming to newbies like myself and the store owner Krissy is lovely and very talented and inspiring (there is a link to her blog on mine so check it out!!!). Here is my WINNING page:)

This is me and Katrina (one of my lovely closest friends here in Dungog) at Lizottes watching Johnny Diesel. We stole Jules' camera whilst she was at the loo and took some silly shots:) Like the title says "it's good to have fun, lots of good fun that is funny!!!!"

So everyone make sure you have some fun this weekend:)

And finally a photo of my littliest angel (well some of the time lol) Grace.

I rarely get a photo of her that isn't blurred from her trying to get away or with her dummy in her mouth, so I must share:)

Nearly Out!!!

Well I just had to share these photos!!!

Lilys front tooth has been loose for weeks and weeks and now finally it is nearly out!!! It is just hanging by a thread, so close.............She just can't leave it alone, constantly in front of the mirror, seing how woobly it is:)

Oh and a layout to share!!!

This is from a Blind Challenge over at http://www.scrapbooksavvy.com.au/

The photo is from my younger brother Charles' wedding day. I've had the photo since 2002 and havn't done anything with it, so now it is out of the shoebox (excellent filing system I know) and scrapped!!!

Well I better go and do some housewife stuff:(

Back to work on Monday so I can't put it off any longer, have a good weekend!!!

My Big girl!!

Well as previously promised her are my Lilys scrapbook pages:) She was pretty excited about me taking photos of her pages to show off!!!
This one is of her and Sam decorating our Xmas tree!! They were so proud of themselves:)

This next one is Sandy and Danny out of Grease!!! Ever since she got the movie it has been on non-stop, she absolutley loves it!!! It cracks me up because she came out and asked me how she could get a picture of them so we searched on the internet and this is what we could find:)

And here are some photos of her on her 1st day of year one:)

Well that's it for me tonight, I might go and actually do some scrapbooking, even though my pile of ironing has now turned into a mountain!!!!

Have a happy weekend:)

Holiday Happenings

Well I am enjoying my first week of holidays:) We have been shopping, hanging out and scrapping!!
I have a few layouts to share and even one from Lily:) She loves doing her own pages, and has her own ideas about everything, very determined little individual, but I guess I won't have to worry about peer pressure....................... I have to take pics of hers tomorrow and upload them on their own space (yes I am a proud mum)

This layout is my second page for the BOM challenge over at http://www.wickedprincesses.com.au/ I am really enjoying this challenge, think I have said that before?, but hey it's nice to focus on yourself everynow and then:)

Close ups:

And this one is the Inspired Blueprints Sketch #40

I am loving using material and different types of fabric etc at the moment, it's always fun to experiment:)

I am off to Wauchope on the weekend to catch up with some family and friends:)

And then another week off before I head back to work and school for Miss Lil!!

Year 1, I cannot believe it..............................

Enjoy this glorious weather everyone:)
