We Went to the Beach......

4:32 PM Edit This 8 Comments »
And it was absolutley freezing, Well for me it was. I did get my feet wet but thats about it!!! Lilli however absolutely loved it. It was such a beautiful day yesterday almost like summer. But the water was still just a little bit cold for me.
And now it is raining :0( . The day didn't start off too bad though. I made cookies this morning, 2 batches. Then we went to Bunnings and bought some plants to pot, I got some tomatoes, cucumbers and some strawberries, Lilli loves all of these so we planted some and then it rained so now they are getting some water.
Here is Lil enjoying the water at the beach.
Now this LO is a little late, or early, whichever way you want to look at it LOL. The photo is from last year but I think it's gorgeous!!
And this is the Little album I have been working on, well a couple of pages. It is Lilli when she was a tiny baby!! It is a Kaiser wooden album. I thought it turned out quite well.
I think that might be about all for today. I still haven't decided what to give away so I will do that another day. I hope all my SBS sisters are safe in the U.S. There are some horrible storms over there. And I hope all my other friends are safe and well too!!
Take care, Thanks for looking :0).

Thank You Gayle!!

Hi all!! I really can't believe how extremely fast this year has flown by!!! and soon it will be christmas (shhhh did I really type that LOL)
Any how I have been scrapping and stuff, I only have one LO to show you today though, I have been working on a mini album so when it's done I will show!!
This LO is my Mum and Lilli, they always have the best hugs.
And here is a card I have made for Copycat Cards, I haven't made one for a while but it's all up and running again so go check it out!! The challenge this week was to make a card using black white and orange. I used an image that I got in a stamp swap, the teddy is sooo cute!! and I cut the bottom off with my great photography skills LMAO.
So I hope all is well in your part of the world! and I will be back one day soon. Hopefully with some more creations to share.
Thanks for looking.

Wow 2 days in a row!!

Well I did say that I would show you the layout I done, compliments of Kim Archer!! It is gorgeous I love it. I love the colours and the embellishments......There is actually two layers, the top one is a sheet of transparency that we scrapped on, and then placed over the bottom.
This is the bottom page, there is supposed to be journalling on there but I haven't decided exactly what I want to write yet!!! But you get the idea, and a very clever idea it is!
This is an old Milo tin that I have recycled and made into a "hair wear" tin, you know, hair bands, clips, bobby pins etc. They always seem to go missing in my house, I think that most of them might end up in Barbies hair LOL. So I decided if I put a lid on them little fingers probably won't be able to get them out (well thats the plan) See around the scallop around the bottom of the tin, that was made with my new fiskars scallop punch, I am most impressed with it.
And here is the lid, which I thought was pretty and needed to be seen as well lol. Sorry, the photo is sideways, I only just noticed the button is not the right way up. Just tilt your head slighty to the left......................
Ok thats all for now, Thanks for looking.

Some new layouts.

Hi There. Well it's been about a month since my last post, but hey, I am still here LOL. I have still been creating and still working hard!! (most of the time) . And some sad news, My Nanna died a few weeks ago, she was 85. I have done a LO of her with my favourite photo, she really was the most beautiful Nanna.
So, anyways, here are a few new layouts.
The first one was a challenge on the Scrapsidaisy forum, I loved the LO it's great.

The next one is actually my first attempt at a 6 x12 page. I had some small photos and thought I would try something a bit different, I thought it turned out OK!!
This one is a kit from Scrapsidaisy, isn't it cute, designed by Kristy!! I thought that the photo of Lilli would go perfectly in the LO, isn't SHE cute!! I added a few extra buttons on mine and some bling. (of course) And this one is my Nanna, I love this photo of her.
On Saturday I spent the day at Scrapsidaisy, where the very talented Kim Archer was teaching us a few new tricks, it was such a great day. I would show you the LO except I left it at work LOL. I took it in today for show and tell, and it's still there. The guys are funny they just don't get it, but Allison likes to look. So when I get it I will take a pic and post it for you all to see!
We also made a mini album but mine is not quite done, I need to add just a few finishing touches. It really was great, I did learn some great new things.
Thats about all thats been happening in my house. Hope all is well at yours!!!
Thanks for looking.

Hello Again!!!!

How are you all!! Hope all is well. Sorry I haven't blogged for a while, sometimes life just gets in the way lol. I have been doing a bit of scrapping though, I have put a few up for you to have a look at.
For some reason I feel like I have hardly been home, I have been though, just busy I think.
I went to my mums for the weekend a couple of weeks ago and stayed on Friday and Saturday night. That was nice for a change, I hadn't been since March because my car was broken, just making up for lost time lol.
So anyway here is a couple of LO's to share. This first one is Lil, isn't she cute!!!!
My Nephew who turned 2 in June.
Lilli with my sisters new little kitten!!
My Neice, on her birthday in May
And Lilli again, she is my angel, she is gorgeous!!!!!
So thats what I have been up to besides working, and all the usual stuff. It's a bit freezing today, the wind is really cold! But it is winter LOL.
That's about all for now, thanks for looking!!

Where is the Sunshine!!!!!!

Hi there, How are you going, I hope somebody is getting some sun shine. The weather here is just plain miserable!!!!!! The sun hasn't been out for ages! LOL. You know I actually like rain just not 5 days straight!
Anyway enough about the weather, I have done a few new layouts. The first one was for a challenge on the Scrapsidaisy Forum, I think I am only about 5 behind everyone else now LOL.

And this one is of Lil doing what she does best, sleeping. I think she will be one of those kids that are hard to get out of bed in the morning LOL. And a quick thankyou to Jules for cutting out my title on her new machine LOL, it is awsome!!!
Thats about it, I am off to Scrapsidaisy this afternoon for some scrapping so maybe I will have something new to show soon. I best go and pick up The Princess from pre-school first though.
Thanks for looking
