Ali and Donna were doing it yesterday... I thought it would be nice to do too.

Outside my window.... A beautiful sunny day... 2 loads of washing on the line already

I am thinking... about the annoying things when it's that time of the month :(

I am thankful for... Allan who never complains about me going away to enjoy my passion

I am wearing.... jeans. aqua t-shirt, black long cardigan, black shoes.

I am creating... I just finished my LO for this weekends CC at "Crafting in Style", I'm in charge of the colour challenge this weekend :)

I am going.... to do a big shop soon

I am reading... Just finished last night "By myself... and then some" the autobiography by Lauren Bacall (Chris picked it out for me at the library... surprisingly good choice... very interesting!!)

I am hoping... for a quick meeting tomorrow so I will have time to do some extra work at home

I am hearing... Lucy chattering away while she is playing

Around the house.... are toys everywhere... Lucy loves to spread all her toys around...

One of my favorite things... going for a lovely walk with my chickies on the mountain in the winter sun.

A few plans for the rest of the week... tomorrow...work and play, zone 3 and dinner with work, Saturday ACTSA, Sunday just spending time at home

A picture to share... Lucy just made me a play dough pizza and asked me if I wanted a cup of tea with that (the pizza is in the box lol)

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy scrapping :)

Class Kit

Do you like my class kit for Crafting in Style??? I had so much fun making it! I used all "Crate Little Sprout" papers and alpha's for it. It's for sale NOW and I think there are only 8 kits left. And guess what... they are only $8 each, yes that includes the die cut paper, patterned papers and alpha's. Bargain hey!! Kits are for sale here. While you're there you might be interested in joining our Cybercrop this coming weekend. Plenty of challenges by Karen, Laura, Lana and myself. I think Lana has a fun game up her sleeves as well!!
Hope to see you there!!

Ruby 5!!!!!

Guess I have a few things I need to catch up on...

First of all...

2 1/2 weeks ago it was our sweet Ruby her fifth birthday!! Congratulations my darling :)

She has grown up so much already but fortunately she's still as sweet as the day she was born. :) As you can see I forgot to buy her a new candle so it was 4 + 1 lol.

I took these photo's of Ruby and one of her friends on her birthday. The LO is made for A Page From My Sketchbook. with this months sketch. Maybe you feel like having a go at it too???

More updates soon ;)

Happy Scrapping!!

123 Blog Party!!!

Have you ever tried to do the monthly challenge at 123 challenge??

I have, they are great fun. I was very lucky and won a prize with my LO last month, woohoo ;)

This Lo is my LO for this month. The criteria were to use 1. Fabric, 2. Buttons and 3. hand stitching. I used some strips of fabric, some buttons in the flower and I stitched some cross stitches. I took the piccies the other day in the park. Lucy usually loves to pose for the camera BUT she loves even more to be silly and funny in front of the camera... I think she's totally cute!!!

We have a very special sketch challenge as well. It's the a special exclusive!! Liz her June sketch for A Page From My Sketchbook is revealed a day early on ScrapBoutique. As I am lucky enough to be on her DT, I had already made a Lo for it. Here it is :)
