Giveaways and Inspirations

Huge Hello Everyone!

What an awesome first week back at TAFE!

each day i have been giving loads of homework and feeling a little

excited over how I'm actually understanding the tax system?!

so so excited about finding out more about MYOB and getting into

big Business Budgeting...on excel! EEE!

OK now i know that's not as exciting as scrappen,
but i am thrilled to be back in the class room and flexing my brain.

I have to admit i have been day dreaming on my lunch breaks

about how i was going to complete my next layouts for this post..

First i wanted to use my lino stamps i had created..

Yep! i carved my own stamps from a sheet of lino and I'm really happy

with my first attempt

I'm now keeping a section in my homework dairy just for doodles and ideas

for my next lot :)

so with these new creations i wanted to apply them to my next layouts

so for my first whirl at Show us Your stuff challenge

this month being "Paper Dolls"

i wanted to do some thing different to the chain and created a Paper doll

circle..which looks a little more like a paper dollies :)

I feel like this is only the first you will see these ...there is just endless possibility

to these paper doilies...

So Big THANK YOU to Show Us Your Stuff for getting me to try something new :)

so here is how i used these Paper dolls on my layout

"Love Holding Hands" 

   

Using some October Afternoon papers, and some of My own Eye Candy Magic

button, doilies and fimo star pal.

Lockie has always been into holding hand and feeling safe,

this was taken on an outing with Nanny and Grandad.

As you can see in the corner of the photo Lockie is holding his Horse.

this was his first Best friend toy that he took EVERYWHERE! :)

Now i wanted to test drive these other stamps i had created...

so out comes the paint and and some imagination

with this being the month of LOVE i thought i would do a layout focused on

My Partner and Me.

"You Hold My {Heart} Forever"

As you can see i have used some of those delish Charms Creations!

and i have used some more of My own Eye Candy Magic buttons and doilies

Using some of my older stash Fancy Pants papers and a dash of Tearse Collins.

and these awesome chipboard sploshes from Words Or Whatever.

I have to mention that i was inspired by the very talented Chloe with here

layout design from Sweet Anticipation. 

So now I'm on the prowl for my next creative dream...

Off to work today and tomorrow and a few dashes of Homework sprinkled

in between these shifts but imagining my next layout...

Looking forward too receiving some more goodies from Charms Creations

and Rainbow Splendor!

Count down!...

Huge Hello Everyone!!

Well it's the count down till my TAFE classes...

so out comes my time management silks...he he...

so I'm all rostered up and ready to take each step :)

Also have so super exciting news!!

I have Just enrolled in an E course

 the Art of wild Abandonment

from the amazing Artist that brought us all She Art!

Christy Tomlinson

I honestly wanted to do her She Art course, but the time and money wasn't

there and i wasn't really into making paper dolls...even though they look AWESOME!

But this course i really couldn't say no, it's a 3 week Art Journalling workshop!

something i have been wanting to do again since my TAFE Art school days...

Just need the push and the inspiration of two very talented ladies

I'm looking forward to getting a new twist on my scrappen style and

enjoying rubbing shoulders with more Art crazed people :)

Also a bonus was that if i signed up before the 29th Feb the course is only $35.00

instead of $45.00

so how could i say no!...lol

another reason i wanted to get a roster happen for myself is because

i really need to give myself time to do all the creative things i love!

Otherwise i just don't feel as happy, and we all love being Happy! :)

Talking about happy i was totally over the moon this weekend with Charms Creations!

OMG! this Women has single handily drag me out of my no mojo phase!

and blown me away with winning this sale giveaway!

EEEEE!!

totally AMAZING!!!

can't Thank Charmane enough!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU!THANK YOU!

Back to the no mojo thing, i ended up having a go with Charms Creations

 Feb Monthly Challenge,

have to use hearts, mists/paints and some Charms Creation.

Here is my take on this challenge

You Make Life Sweeter Everyday

some lovely goodies i found in my stash, Birdie pin from Chip chop shop,

 Charms Creation lolliepop and edgers and My own Eye candy magic spotty buttons and fimo button.

After this layout i wanted to still keep getting messy in the pains and mists

so i turned on some more masking and created

Please Just 1 nice Photo

oh i just love a good dose of colour...lol

Another exciting news i have come across is a new

Scrapbooking Kit shop is coming!

A piece of Cake Designs

OMG! if there is some i love its Scrap Kits!

so watching this space

Also exciting is they are out on the look out for some Design Team Members!

just click the picture to be taking to there lovely looking blog for more details!

Lets share the love!

Huge Hello Everyone!

well it's finally here the month of love!

even though i would like to think every month is filled with love :)

i have to apologize for going MIA i have been in and out of hospital

the past few weeks with a case of phenomena!

yeah i know, how strange?! in this heat?!

so now after a few sets of meds and a week of rest I'm feeling at least hafe normal

 and ready to get back to study Cert IV Accounting and

back to weekend work at Bunning :)

Fresh with a new time management plan so i can fit in some scrappen and bloggin

as i have realized my life is really not as colourful or inspiring

as it it with all my Scrappen Friends

{{SPECIAL BLOGGY HUGS}}

Also decided to share my blogging love by hosting a giveaway every month!

 yep! every month!

I really wish i had the time to keep making and selling my Eye Candy Magic

its just not fitting in with family, work and study    

So i think i would rather share all these goodies with my follower

this way i can share goodies & keep making new random creations :)

Yeah! totally win win! for everyone!

so the giveaways will work on the usually blogging way

Post about the monthly giveaways on your blog and comment on the post with a link!

easy peasy!

the 1st of the next month i will draw a winner and post a new giveaway :)

  

so for the first Sam i Am's Eye Candy Magic Giveaway

February Giveaway

as you can see i got carried away with the love theme...lol

but next every months giveaway will be different :)

I also wanted to share the few layouts i created just before i had gotten sick

Your Grassy Toes

I created this layout with Anna's crafting cupboard  Jan sketch

as you can see i have used some of those delish lollipop from Charms Creations

whom is hosting a Sale on the 3rd of Feb here

As well as this amazingly generous giveaway valued to $40!!!

just look at all those delish  goodies of Charm Creations!

Here is another layout i created with a dash of purple pumpkin buttons :)

Mud Puddles

i was having a thing about scarppen feet...lol

little different...lol

I've been on the look out for some fabric to recover some chairs we picked up

with a newish dinning table,

so am excited to get myself a staple gun and some retro fabric and have a whirl at 

re covering dinning chairs :)

just don't want to pay too much for fabric as there is 6 chairs!

just have to keep my eyes peeled :)

um...i suppose i should get to helping Justin with the cooking or more

like cleaning up after cooking...lol

oh i should mention that my very talented partner Justin has set up a

face book page with all his drawings and portraits he has been commissioned.

check out his  Art works

Justin Allison    

here is one of my faves he had done from a photo
