Swish!

Well I am a happy girl!
I actually got to scrap on the weekend and even better I did a page just for me. Been dying to scrap these pics and although I am not completely happy with the result I am hoping it's enough to tempt my Mojo back into action.....lol

Not so fun, but I have big plans for more scrapping next weekend.

Let's Celebrate Cards

Just a quick post to share a couple of quickie cards I created for DownUnder Direct using the Let's Celebrate Stamp set by JustRite Stampers.

These 2 cards are very similar but not exactly the same.
I altered the Lattice Spellbinders and layered the cards slightly different to give a different effect to each card.
Aren't the Monkey & Elephant just too cute!

The full product list can be viewed HERE

I have the whole weekend off this weekend so I am determined to put it to the best of use.
Thanks for stopping by :)

My2Angels Girlfriends Ribbon

Well I think this is the last of my projects I have stashed away....lol I did get to scrap a little bit on the weekend so hopefully I can catch up a bit soon. My Mojo is not playing nicely at all. He is feeling a little annoyed and abandoned!

This month Tracy is featuring the ribbons at My2Angels and I came up with this quick card using the gorgeous Girlfriends ribbon.

1 Project & A New Little Man!

I know I haven't been here for a while but I have been very busy! I have not been busy scrapping. But I do have a little project to share that I created a while ago with some gorgeous products from My2Angels. This was another re-cycling project.

I took this empty box:


And turned it into this:

There are some more gorgeous projects from the Design Team Angels on the blog. Be sure to check them out here.

And here is what has been occupying my thoughts this week.
Early Tuesday morning my very gorgeous second Grandson decided to make his big arrival. He was a very healthy 3.97kg, with a little bit of dark hair and very dark blue eyes.
The little man does not have a name as yet, but I will share as soon as his Mummy & Daddy can make a decision......lol


I have plans to actually create tomorrow so hopefully I will have some new stuff to share soon!

Happy Birthday Chay!

Happy birthday to our gorgeous Grandson Chay!
I can't believe he is 1 year old already. Time goes way too quick.
I hope he has a fabulous and happy day filled with lots of love and hugs.

Love you Chay Chay xxx



Check him out driving his first car!.....lol

Mother's Day Gifts

It's Mummy's day soon. YAY!
Way back at the start of last month I created a couple of gifts for my Mum and my Nan. The kids inspired these two gifts.
(I really hope neither of them are reading this post....lol)

Tracy has all the details on the My2Angels Blog on the thoughts behind these projects and I got to use one of my favourite processes with both......RE-USE, RE-CYCLE, RE-INVENT, RE-NEW, RE-VAMP!

Take one plastic craft take-away container and some pretty goodies from My2Angels shop and this is what you get......

MIA

You might have noticed that I have been MIA lately. The reason is that I am back at work now 3-4 days a week and somehow my little brain thought that I would still have heaps of time to do all the other stuff I love.
OMG! I am such a dreamer.....lol

I am desperately trying to squeeze a 7 day week into 3 days and obviously that is not going to work. And to top it off when you run around like crazy trying to get everything done you just end up so darned tired!
So I am extremely thankful that I was well organised before I went back to work and had a couple of DT commitments up my sleeve. Otherwise I would have NOTHING to show you.....lol

I am hoping that as we all settle into this new routine of me not being here to do everything for everyone that I will find some ME time in there somewhere.

So all I have to show you at the moment is my example for this month's challenge at
Scrap The Girls (which I had finished 3 weeks early!). I LOVED this challenge. The colours were brilliant to work with. Here is the details of the challenge from Scrap The Girls:

Welcome to the May challenge at Scrap the Girls!
This month we would like you to create a LO based only on the colours below (minimal amounts of black allowed)
Remember: Girls only, no boys allowed!
(colour chart courtesy of a previous Colour Combo's challenge)
The colours shades are only a guide only - eg, you can use lighter or darker shades of the same colours

And here was my example for the challenge
