February!


Couldn't think of a good title for this post lol! Well the big hens weekend was week before last weekend and I had the BESTEST time - all the girls were so much fun, laugh, drink, dance and wobbly boots and all! Plus I got sunburnt, suffered from sunstroke and then got sick in the following week! But at least I was healthy for the weekend and in fine form! I really look forward to doing that again but just for one night next time I think!!!


On another note this is another layout I've done

of Kyle - this was last year. I didn't actually take any piccies this year. I guess I have to do that! Same uniform though, same bag, same hat even! So no different except he's grown and he actually looked forward to going! He's still enjoying it and has found a new love and lease on reading which is blowing me away but I ain't complaining as it makes homework a lot easier!

On wednesday (yep Valentine's Day) I got a new car - a 2000 mitsubishi lancer - she goes like a dream. So Saturday I cleaned it all and it came up a real treat! I'm so stoked I own a car that's less than 10 years old when I get it!!! First time for everything!

That's about it for news. I'm recovering from bronchitis at the moment so get tired real quick but hope to get on top of it so I can get more scrappin done!

Have a fabulous February everyone :)

Oh I'm so excited to be scrappin again! And slowly but surely I'm getting through all the new stuff I've purchased and piled up on my desk AND finishing off some old projects too!


This is the first lo I've done in month thanks to the girls in scrapclub - thankyou thankyou thankyou!!! Loved using the BG pp as always, got to use up some older supplies with the BG rubons too. And of course a little inking on the edges!

These piccies were taken by Joel's kindy last year in August and I've been hanging to scrap them (well just to scrap again in fact, lol!).

So here's the next one I'd half done when the girls went home and finished off the next day. Lots of inking and stamping and dimensional magic on all the chipboard. Used collections letters and Fancy Pants big board and biggest board which was a Christmas pressie from A Creative Place - thanks girls - I JUST LOVE IT!!!!

And I managed to complete another lo on Sunday which is flat! Seems like it's missing something but I think it's just cause I can't do flat very well (bit like simple isn't my thing either - wish I could but!). Also finished off a canvas hanging that I started months ago and a little project for Kyle.

Joel was pretty impressed I scrapped so much of him, as they do!

Kyle started grade 2 last week and so far we've been blitzing the homework front! And he even doesn't half mind going to school which is a huge turnaround on last year. So I'm truly hoping it keeps going you know like for the next 11 or so years lol!!!

Both of them still play excellently together mostly. Kyle coughed this morning and so did I and Joel says I think you and Kyle are coming down with cold mummy. No Joel just a cough. So he goes up to Kyle and says did you achoo? Kyle did you bless you? I never heard the response being in fits of laughter as I was!

Oh well, next big event is Valentine's Day - any ideas for a something special to do would be most welcomed - been a long time since I've had someone special to celebrate it with! And be nice!

Take care everyone :)
