Polkadot place giveaway

How's this for a nice little stash.

I was thinking it would be nice to win it and scrap some of my photos from Europe. Anyways if you want a chance to win pop over to the Polkadot Place and enter. While you are there check out the kits, I think they are just about all gone so you better be quick. Mine arrived on Friday and I can't wait to get into it.

Two posts in one day - not sure what is going on.

November Scrap the Boys Challenge



Hi all, I am a tad late with this one, I had a disaster with the previous layout and spilt a bottle of paint over it. Oops!!!!! The hazards of being a scrapbooker. This layout is for challenge #2 at Scrap the boys which is sponsored by 2 crafty. We were sent a lovely range of chipboard and the tractor and tree was just perfect for this layout. Mum and Dad live on 3 and a half acres in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Blake loves riding around on Grandad's tractor, have a look at his face, he is pretty proud of himself.

Anyways make sure you pop over to Scrap the Boys and complete the challenges this month. The sponsors are Lil' Red Rocket, What is Old is New and 2 Crafty, so the prizes guarantee to be fabulous.

Have a look at this awesome new kit

Hiya all,

sorry I have been such a slack blogger but I couldn't upload any photos while we were overseas so no news, I do however have lots of photos so will try and get them uploaded at some stage.

Anyways, just wanted to let you all know my beautiful friend Bridgette has been very busy lately and has started making up her own kits. You will find them here so pop over and order one. They are so gorgeous, I'm sure they will sell out quickly.


No news on the scrapping front, but hoping to get into it this week.

Only one week to go

until we leave for our trip to Europe. OMGoodness, how quick has that come around. We have so much to do, Ashley's mum arrives on Wednesday, she is looking after the kids and the house for us while we are away. So I am madly running around cleaning the house, making lists, trying to remember if I've forgotten anything. Sooooooo excited.

Anyways, I will try and blog while I am away, Ash will be on a course for three days while we are in Paris so will have the nights to do some posts. Pop in, I'm not promising too much but it would be great to get the trip down each day on my blog.

No scrapping here, I have been too busy but I would love to squeeze in a layout before I go.

Paper Poppy have done it again

This month's kit is absolutely gorgeous. It is really straying away from the colours I usually use but I loved it anyway. Guess I shall be a bit challenged when I get it but that is a good thing right????? I guess these layouts are gonna involve a lot of procrastinating but I can't wait to get stuck into it.

Main Kit


Some close-ups

and the add-on
I love the dollar exchange with the States right now. Makes it worthwhile to buy these kits from over there, even taking postage into account.

A very successful scrapping holiday

I packed up some scrap stuff to take on holidays, normally I would get nothing done but this time I went with my friend Charmaine who also scraps - YAY!!!!!!!! So we had a couple of late ones after the kids had gone to sleep and this is what I came up with.

This is my gorgeous girl on the right and her friend Paige at a dance comp. How cute are their costumes? Anyways I used stuff from September's Paper Poppy Kit and added some extra bits and came up with this -

Yep that is pink crepe paper, I would never have thought to use it but it was in the kit, Aphra you are so clever. Oh and I LOVE the new Sass Indie Girl Range, so gorgeous.
And another one, this time this her team, they are called Nine Minute Noodles, cute huh???? The are a great bunch of girls, Miss Megs has had an awesome year dancing with these girls
and last but not least a layout of my little man. We just got his school photos so thought I would get this one scrapped and put away. And the layout features a few of my faves, October Afternoon, Jillibean Soup, Cosmo Cricket and the cute little green ladybird is My Little Bit of Whimsy

Thanks for stopping by.
