Off to Tassie.....

Not me......but some of my cards.I have never considered myself a card maker but I started making blank ones out of my scrap papers etc about a year ago. Now I didn't consider selling them either until a family member suggested it........so I have been selling them through our Motel in town and now I have a few spots in Tassie that want to sell them. Here is a couple of pics of some of them.....





Thanks for stopping by......

Just because.....

I like this photo....it got scrapped! This was one of the first pics I took when I was playing around with my new camera flash....Elise kept peeking over the side of the lounge and I got her! I randomly brush stroked gesso around to break up the bright colours a bit.....love these Kaiser papers!!

Ryan's 5th Birthday.....

What a great day it was! We painted a little birthday greeting on the old cement tank....he loved it! I find myself completing a lot more double layouts to include more photos......I find keeping the design simple is the best way to do this. Another precious memory recorded!

DT sneeks....

I have just completed my DT pages for Just Scrapbooking and thought I'd share a couple of sneeks.....really love the Glitz printed paper on the skateboarding page-great 'boy' paper!



Great day to stay indoors today so I'm off to scrap Ryan's birthday pics....

More of the PINK Party....and some boy stuff too!

Just finished this simple double on Elise's Pink Party.....aren't those three little girls so sweet! Used my Jablo flower stamps again.....I have used these so many times! Lynne from my LSS gave them to me as she received them as an added extra with one of her orders....a nice little gift.

I also have some little peeks of my girlfriend's christening present for her son. I am still working on it but want to scrap the rest of the album so she can just add photos as she goes. At this stage she isn't aware of my blog so hopefully she won't come across these until the big day in a couple of weeks (shhhhh Karina!)




Lastly, I have been asked by my children's Primary School Admin to scrap an album cover for one of the retiring teachers. It was such an honour to be asked as this particular teacher was the teacher who took me for work experience all those years ago......infact, she cemented the fact that I really wanted to be a teacher. I have to bind it all together with the beautiful story some of the children have written and illustrated....all by next thursday so I had better get cracking!

Happy Scrapping....

Some sneeks and a Flash!!!

Just sharing some sneeks of my latest pages for Just Scrapbooking....





I also ordered my new camera flash today.....a Canon Speedlite 580 EXII.....can't wait to have a play with it! After borrowing my brother's flash unit a couple of months ago, I was sold! Just love my camera, so of course I can't wait to add this to it!
I'm currently working on an 8x8 baby album....which I am giving to a close friend on her son's christening in July. I'm using the Making Memories Animal Crackers 'Jack' papers etc.....they are so beautiful!...just like her boy. In between this I am also finishing off a commissioned wedding album......big job but it is finally coming together. Of course this is all squished in between my day-to-day musings with my four treasures.

Take care,

P.S Hi Gill.....miss you!

A Birthday LO...

Just scrapped one of my favourite pics from Elise's birthday party. I am also going to scrap a double to go with this as I love all the pics, especially the ones taken with her little girlfriends. I am also scrapping some DT layouts which includes some nice bright papers.....will share some more soon!
