Welcome to Elise's room....

I made this today for Elise's bedroom door from bits of scraps....she is very happy it!

Saying goodbye....

can be a hard thing to do when you have had such a wonderful time! I have just recently resigned from the Just Scrapbooking Design Team after three years. I loved every bit of my time there from the friendships I have made, the professional nature of the team, the awesome products and the great boss lady at the helm of it all....Jordie thankyou so much for everything!! I will, of course, be keeping in touch and I am so excited about attending their August retreat (Nomes, you can finally get your needle back!)
I promised myself that this year I would make more time to spend establishing my own little creative business, just inspired. This will mean that my kits will be out on a regular basis and I will also be working on a creative staionery portfolio that will live at Create & See. I am also putting quite a bit of time into my Patching by the Port workshops and this has really kickstarted my passion for working with fabrics. So keep checking in to see what I have been busy creating.

I will leave you with this quick double layout I finished last night and a photo of my flower canvas (which I revamped by adding a chocolate coloured fabric base to).





See you very soon...

Two posts in one day!!!!

A mammoth effort from me.......but I just had to share a peek at my next kit. It uses traditional Christmas colours, Kaiser papers and some lovely metallic cardstock....on it's way to Create & See this week.

Another sneek.....

Here is a peek of one of my beyond the page projects I will be teaching at Patching by the Port. It is a 12 x 12 canvas which involves patchwork fabric scraps, buttons, twill, stitching and more. I am also working on another BTP project which uses old jeans pockets. Stay tuned.....My class samples will be on display at Create & See from next week for you to take a closer look. I am also happy to say that my next kit will be available next week too...so if you have some christmas pics that need scrapping then get them out....will share some sneek peeks in the next couple of days. Have a lovely Sunday!

Patching by the Port.....

Patching by the Port are spreading their wings this time around to incorporate scrapbooking into their program. I will be offering three workshops which will all incorporate fabric and stitching. The first workshop will focus on machine stitching, the second hand and machine and the third will use these techniques with beyond the page projects.....of course they will all involve the use of fabric and other haberdashery items. I have some sneek peeks of one of my projects to share with you.....




I will have more to share over the next few days but must get back to my DT work.....

Have a great weekend...

Still holidaying......

It has been such a long time hasn't it? I had such a fantastic break down south over summer and my holidays aren't over yet! I leave for Sydney on Thursday with my mum and meet up with my sister there (she's coming from Tassie). We are having a week long girl's trip. We booked it last year and gave it to mum for a combined Chrissy/birthday pressie. So my next kit won't be in the shop until I return.....so stay tuned.

P.S Thanks for checking in Linda.....will have something to share soon.

Tis the season to be jolly.......

I really have neglected my blog of late but things are very hectic in a jolly kind of way here.....lots of school celebrations, concerts, presentations etc All very exciting!



My second page kit went as well as the first and I have the third in the planning stages at the moment.

Yesterday I sent off my December DT work to Just Scrapbooking. Absolutely loved creating with what I was sent and here are some sneek peaks.....






Off to town for the Christmas Parade so take care....
