A bit ago, I decided to throw my hat into the ring and inquire about a design team position over at D-lish Scraps. Not really thinking I stood much of a chance as the talent in Australia is pretty darn amazing. I opened my email one day and saw a reply and I honestly expected

Another layout from the retreat back in June. I know. I’m slow to share. This one is of little Lukey and his glowworm. It was a hand-me-down from his uncle and he absolutely adores it. Well, he’s grown out of it now, but you’ll still see him occasionally put it on his bed. Where have

Amy loves music. Always has. From the time she was about 9 months old and would start waving her arms around whenever Low came on from Flo Rida. Now at 5 she sings to almost every song that comes on the radio. She remembers the words to songs when I can’t. She seriously loves music.

With the rush to get challenge layouts up before deadline, I missed a couple of ones in between. Not that it matters, I guess, if they are in order of creation or not. I made this layout a bit ago, but it was boring and I wasn’t happy with it. So I decided to chop

I know! I created two layouts this weekend! I can barely believe it myself! This one was created for Creative Scrappers sketch #713. It looks nothing like the sketch, but once I started, I was on a roll and I was not stopping! Still absolutely loving the Cameo. Lots of cutting happening on this layout:

I did indeed buy a 60 pack of white American Crafts cardstock. Let me tell you, that’s a bucket load of white card! What’s one to do with it? Check out White With 1 challenge blog, that’s what! I thought the August challenge shouldn’t be too hard, pastel colours and masking. I cut the hearts

A couple of months ago I bought a pack of Dear Lizzy 5th & Frolic diecuts and there was a really sweet word one: Story. And I really wanted to use it but I couldn’t bring myself to part with it. So what does one do? Well, probably not what what I did. I bought

I started this layout last week when I went to Delights all day crop. I took the August 1st Stuck?! sketch with me and got to work. I know, it differs a little, some bits are backwards, but it’s all good. It’s done. That’s all that matters to me. Now to have a look at

Please don’t get disappointed if you happened to come this way and expect to see a mini album. I don’t do them. Along with other off-the-page projects. For whatever reasons, they are just not me. So you can imagine my absolute delight when I won Scrapbooking Memories Masters and with it, oh, about 10  mini

I love Winter. Flannelette pyjamas, hot chocolates, tracksuit pants, not having to shave my legs. There’s so many good things about Winter. Even the daily temperatures make me appreciate the other seasons more. Especially as a kid. Summertime. With a sprinkler. Is there anything better? I created this layout while I was at that retreat

I never used to use sketches, and for the most part, I still don’t. But lately I have enjoyed the end result of a sketch. Here’s another one. This time I decided on the bubble sketch. There was something about it that I just really liked. I whipped this layout up on Friday night after

Last month I went to a scrapbooking retreat at Long Point. It’s a budget retreat where you self cater etc. It’s fantastic value and not too far from home. Sar from Scrapbook Savvy brings the shop along and I always manage to buy a heap of stuff I don’t need, just really want! There were

Today I am at home, resting, getting over my cold. Thinking that since the housework is almost finished, I might go and play with paper and glue. Today I have a layout to share. It’s even titled Today. Because we all know I’m slightly unimaginative when it comes to titles.

And here I am delivering. Back here I shared my first project life spread. I was so excited to be starting this project this year. I ordered the product and then I had to wait months for it. What?! So then while I took photo and stuck them in, I wasn’t into the whole PL

What? Another layout! I have been a bit crafty lately. I wasn’t too sure about the ‘bloody’ misting, but it seems to have turned out ok. Well, we’re off to get some photos printed and then go bowling. I’ll have some PL spreads to share tomorrow (hopefully!).

A layout share. I created this one using mostly scraps I had lying around. I find myself doing that. The problem is making the layout look different enough from the first one! This layout is from when myself and the kids drove to Melbourne for a holiday with my Dad, while Steve went to visit

I haven’t shared this layout yet. I scrapped it some time ago, but I’ve only just remembered to photograph it. I love this photo so much of my grandparents and my kids. It was taken the last time we saw them before they moved interstate. We miss them and the kids always ask after them.

I did indeed get myself a Smash album. I must say, I love it. I got the pink one for one reason and one reason only: the book page. Yep, that one on the bottom row and in the middle. So anyway, I oohed and aahed over it for quite some time. I had no
