Where does the time go?!

Being back at work 5 days a week has it's drawbacks! I'm on the computer all day and last thing I feel like doing is spending more time at it when I get home!
Boys are with their father this week and I miss the endless chatter and carrying ons but enjoying the peace at the same time! Hard to please hey! lol! I almost managed to blow my car radiator up last Friday - it's been leaking for awhile and using lots of water - now though it's going through about 1½ litres every 10-20 mins normal (60-70klms) driving! Cripes! So I can't go far! Anyway, have put an order in for a new model car and hope to have that within a couple of weeks - well I NEED to have it by end of next week so fingers crossed one is found for me real soon!

Scrapping - wow - on Saturday / Sat night I went beserk and created 12 layouts, most simple but a few not so simple, that includes 3 that were part finished. A few tins, this little suitcase which I will add some mini books too at some stage and I had such a great time doing it all!





I also completed some calenders for a swap and they're ready to post out.

And this layout I did for work which was a challenge pack - those of you who know me, know I'm not a pink girl so it was a real challenge! I changed it to red using Tim Holtz ink marigold - yum yum. So it's not so 'pinky' looking! Still love MM products just the pp's I'm not real fussed on.

Oh and huge CONGRADS to Peta for getting her licence and thanks for picking me up - I think you did a mighty fine job :)

Wahoo, I bin creatin' & we have one less tooth!

yeeha, well at least I'm excited! Kyle lost his very first tooth - how exciting! He's been a bugga with it though! He had troubles with his teeth as a baby (very bad teether) and it's still happening! But I am having some wins with him this last week which is just wonderful and today was no exception - in fact both of them have been gorgeous today. I picked them up at 11 at the shops and they were very well behaved, we came home, had hot dogs for lunch, did some painting and drawing, I stuck together a wooden dinosaur thingy for Kyle and then they watched a movie and I scrapped. Oh cripes yep - after how many months lol! Not for want of trying, just lack of time. So in the last couple of weeks I've managed to get a few nice little things done and some things long in the making finished which has been just wonderful!

This is one I finished awhile ago and I just love it - obviously cause of the main man in one pic :)
These were the pics that mostly Anthony took, some the kids took, I know it was Kyle's first time using a camera and he took the first pic which I just love. It was an instant camera and they're not the 'best' piccies but hey they're the first I have of us all together so that's a big bonus and special in itself. This lo took me 2 weeks to fully complete cause I just did it in bits and pieces - should've only took 2 days really! There's loads of stamping, dm and chipboard on it and it feels wonderful!

And I've done 2 buckets this week, they didn't take too long - the ribbons take the longest time lol!

Just did lots of collage of all my littlie scraps which I have way too many of but can never part with cause they come in handy for these projects which I really do love doing!

Ok so one piccie has gone missin in action, I'll try uploading it next time! But this one is for my sil and I look forward to giving it to her!
Hope you gals are havin a great time :)
