Scrapped up a Strom..

I took the chance while Adam is in Melbourne to scrap up a storm last night. The boys were in bed and asleep by 7.30pm and I spent the rest of the evening digi scrapping watching telly. I am pretty happy with how they turned out.. I still have so much to learn and I am trying to add a little more detail to my pages, but hey I'm getting there!!






We are off to the park today with my (SIL) Kate and Brendan.. Boys will love it..
Adam is home after lunch and then it is more of a busy weekend with, work, packing and being a mum!!
Have a good one..

Photos & Digi Layouts

Sorry these 2 photos are out of order... my computer won't let me fix it.. Grrrrrr


Julie( Pink Pj's) and Leonie( blue top) came from over east to spend the weekend scrapping with all of us.
Rach and Corrina were our table buddies, they were a lot of fun!

Here is a Digi layout i did using one of the photos I took on the weekend. It talks about meeting some of these ladies "In Real Life"..




This layout is using photos I took of the boys smelling one of the roses i grew in my garden.( which is a small feat in it's self...ha ha ha)

Here are some photos from the weekend..


My drinking buddy Kylie ( we started at 10.50am on Saturday morning.. had to beat last years time of 11am...LOL)



Lynn and Marg ( owns CPC)



This is the gorgeous Barbie.. She is such a sweet lady. Lynn and I stayed at Barbie's house in the evening's, and we are very thankful for that..

Adam is away again this week, in Melbourne for work.. So it's just me and the boys.
I have packed 3 more boxes, so that is 17 in total and i don't think i have even made a dent in it..

I scrapped with paper - and loved it!!

Well I am back from a great weekend away in Bruce Rock.. Marg at CPC put on a great camp and it was awesome to meet up with some of the lovely ladies that i chat with on the computer.. I have lots of photos to share but thought i would start today with all thew layouts i did over the weekend.. It was the first time in a long time that i got the chance to sit and scrap with Paper.. and I loved it!!

















One of the ladies from Adelaide came over for the weekend and didn't bring too many photos so it was lovely of her to scrap one of mine " butter wouldn't melt"..Thanks Leonie.!!
This was the OTP memo board we made on Sunday morning.. Great easy fun class!!

Will be back tomorrow with photos of some of the ladies from camp!!

Look at all those flowers..

Look at all those flowers...LOL... i don't think i have ever used that many on a paper scrapped layout..

Don't think I like the font's i have used for the title, so might go back and change it!!
Adam is home from Geraldton tomorrow, and I head off to Bruce Rock on Friday for a scrap camp, so i am looking forward to that!!
Some of the ladies from the forum that i chat on are coming over from the eastern states, so I am really looking forward to meeting them. Will have heaps of photos to share after the weekend.

Well Adam and I are slowing coming down off cloud nine after selling our house so quickly and for such an amazing price. The reality of having to pack up our house is setting in.. LOL ... We now have a settlement date of the 21st August, so that gives me about 6 weeks to pack up our house.. I think I can do it??? If anyone wants to help, let me know...ha ha ha Just kidding, I figure if i just do a box or two every now and then or clean and tidy out a cupboard of things that i won't need every few days, it shouldn't be too much.

Here are a few digi layouts I have done.





The latest 2 lessons over at the Jessica Sprague site was learning how to add a mask to a photo( Lion) and then blending textures over a photo ( Nic beach). I am really enjoying learning all these techniques, some I still need to refine and prac.



I am teaching a kids class done at Tomorrow's memories on Tuesday, looking forward to it.
Have a good week!

We sold our House

Wow..Wow..Wow... What an amazing 4 days it has been. Our house went on the Market on Monday night and we sold it last night.. There was so much interest in it and we had people come through on Wednesday and then yesterday morning. By last night it was sold and Adam and I are so stoked... It was an absolutely gorgeous house, but just became too small with the boys. So it is time to move on and we are really looking forward to that!!
Here are a few photos of Sam helping Denise ( agent) sticking the under offer stickers on our sign..
