Lets get Picky!

Huge hello everyone : D

Oh what a strange weekend!!

i really have been battling the scrappers block and

My mood is swinging so i think it thats time again to focus on the kids and

get loads of cuddle...lol natures mediecin

So i di manage to get this sketch done from Get picky Blog challenge

I'm not as happy as i would like to be with this layout,

I think my scrappers block really shows in my work..lol

Oh well give it a couple of days and i'll be in the swing of things again..

So Get Pickys sketch this month 

So you can see how you just have to give this sketch a go! its fantastic! i think i may just scrap it again, when i'm feeling better : D
So go on give the sketch a go!! : D

now off to see if i can find my mojo....or just drown myself in cuddles! lol
Happy scrappen lovelies : D

 

BoBunny Everywhere!!

Huge hello Everyone : D

Hope your all enjoying a fun filled weekend  : D

Now i'm feeling the heat as it is warming up in Busselton the past two days have been a real Summer slap

in the face! i for got how much i hate the heat!! lol i really can't concentrate

and just to bothered and find all i want to do is lay down on the bathroom

tiles...lol so my scrappen has been put aside and i'm feeling a little empty.....werid?!

Anyway i pushed myself the other day when Ash was at Kindy to complete they Bobunny Challenges

So you know me i can't go past a great sketch chalklenge, i just love this Sketch that Bobunny 

had up for the Friday sketch challenge : D

                                                                 How totally Joy is this sketch!!!

 How can't you give it a go?!

so i dived into my Bobunny papers and came up with

the Might Muffin Boy layout using Bobunny collection Calypso Dream

I tried a new techiniqe for myself, the pleaded boarder around the circle...i was suprised how easy it was

and i really love the effect, i'm thinking i my do it with a braket or something....hhmmm

Anyway the next Bobunny challenge was little more difficult cause the papers i wanted to use i had

bugger all! I wanted to use the Bobunny Peacock Lane collections cause my fav colours are green and purple! so the challenge was to so a layout about yourself....so my style to this challenge is how i love the Bush, i have never scrapped about how i miss this part of my life, now that i live beside the sea and very rarly get to go bush...only when treasure hunting with the kids, so i wanted to capture how i feel when i'm in the bush...the magic, the way i find peace and my myself in the sweet nature.....aaarrrhhh

so with a lot of "Wish i had more of this paper!" i came up with this layout

"A Small peace of Me belongs Here"

 So now i'm back home after a lovely day at my parents and the beach early this moring, i think i can steal away and get into a few challenges set by Scrap threapy!

Cause they are holding their last Cyber CRop for the Year so pop over if  you need the inspiration like myself..lol

Even though i need more time..lol which they give you too! the Due date for the challenges are the

26th of Nov so thats a cool week! sweet! i've got to get at least a couple done*cross my finger*

Well enough nattering i must go find the paper to suit my photos : D

Just a little creative

Hello everyone!!

SO we have re- claimed my scrap space and Justin, sadly went to work today with a face like a smacked bottom : ( poor darling, i really understand the "i don't want to!" but he is an absolute hun for letting me

be a SAHM for the very short and perious years we have with our kids.

So feeling a little down with justing here i swung into the kitchen and started Baking!

so after a couple of hours i came out with a batch of Peanut choc chip cookies

and a load of Vegi Sausage rolls!

Then finishing off my coffee i sat down to do this Card with Basic Grey Challenge blog in mind with the theme being "wings"

I instantly thought of Deb's Creations Newest Stamp line that is only avalible at Debs!

the Emerald Fairies 

so i used the cute little stamp Boo and sookie!

along with Basic Grey Marrakech 6x6 pad (oh how i love 6x6 pads!)

So this i hope is a start to a very productive day!

*cross my fingers*

next i've got to get Ash speech path game ready so we can work on describing things and guessing

sort of like a guess who but with toys!

then no doubt with the sun shining i think down the park for some fresh air and inspiration!

...i think i better get ready!!..lol

Happy scrappen lovelies!

Hope your day is filled with creativity!

even if it's just creating a mess with the kids : D

{HUGS}

Oh before i forget on a side note, Scrap therapy is holding their last Cyber crop for the Year this 

weekend, come pop over and see the gals and get your creative juice stirred!! i'll

be there popping in and out and no doubt you'll understand why! : D

Well Justin had other plans...lol well not that it was a plan..lol

Now don't get me wrong i love my partner too utter bitz! he is my Sun and i'm his moon...but talk about bad timing! Justin decided it was time to clean up the back shed and then the storeroom that is right next too
my scrap space...so you can imagine where all the boxes and stuff when ...thats right...on and under and around my space!!! so i spent the rest of today trying to claim

 back my space! ...all i wanted to do today was just one layout!! now i'm so buggered i just want to have a coffee and think about dinner...sounds like a little bit like a circle?!

Well putting all that aside and a huge Kisses to my Man! cause with out him pushing me into a corner 

about changing things around thay would never get done, i love you justin! but seiously you and i need a serious cuddle tonight!!...lol

So i was thrilled to bitz when i got an email back from my friend chickie baby Mazz

and reveiw it! about the playground, food, wine and if it really is any point going!

so now our fun weekends have now grown into another fun Hobby!!

Oh So Proud!!

Hello everyone!!

I've only just got back from taking Ash too kindy, we had a school Assembley today and the Kindies

were doing a little item, so i had to dress Ash in his PJ's for this which i thought i would have a problem with but funny has it, Ash was in the "I don't want to go to school" mode so i just got his shoes on and said "See you later i'm going to assembly"...lol so Ash came running along..lol

We got to school and went straight to assembley and Lockie and I sat and watched...in amazment as Ash sat quietly and still!! OMG!!! Then my heart just melted into a puddle of Goo! As Ash and the rest of the Kindies did a little song and dance....Oh my heart was just so full of pride to see Ash standing up there

Haven just as much fun as the rest of the kids and with a huge smile : D

Oh Ash really had me choked up : D *sniff sniff* my baby is growing up!

He better stop doing it or i'll have to talk to some one!!

lol! After the Assembly we all headed back for a Morning Tea with all the Parents and kids

Which was Totally AWESOME!! I just love to see Ash and Lockie playing and haven fun with other kids 

So this Morning has been totally delightful ..the only thing missing was my CAMERA!!

Oh man seriously!!! you think with all the scrappen i do, you think the first thing i would take is my Camera!!

so kicking Myself!!! beside that totally perfect morning!!

Now Lockie and i have a few hours together maybe some cutting and Gluing

Or just a cuddle and movie....

Oh Thank you so Much for all my blessing!!

if i could freeze time it would be now!!

this has been such a eye opener haven Kids...before life was just

so empty....or just more self absorbed...maybe

well if you have had kids you know what i mean and if not...you will : D

I can't thank Justin enough for giving me the gift of being a SAHM if i had to juggle a job between the kids i really think i would be too stessed and tired to enjoy it, well we'll see in a few more years...lol

Still i'm just on cloud nine to to see Ash happy and being a little boy...kindy boy : D

Hope your all haven a fantastic day and if not go grab a cuddle!!

swear it was winter! My washing is bulking up and i had to drag out the clothes horse,

not to mention the kids have been fighter...or more like sqobbling! OH MYGOD! if only my scrap

space had a cone of silence! lol Still it has be love weather to curl up with a book and sinking a milo!

If only some one would watch the kids!!

Serioulsy if they left my space i would be able to relax....only when they are asleep in their 

Beds do i really feel at peace : D

So Scrappen has been a little slim the past coupl of days and i'm haven a little rut at the moment...

Just the weather and the over whealming feeling of loss since i finished

my last House of nights book!! On MAN! i feel like i have lost my friends!

the next book comes out in Januray so at least it's not the end....Now i'm getting ready to dive into 

the City of Bones that was highly recommend by Kirsten : D (thank you darling)
