As you can see i really got into the Grinch this christmas!...lol

this is the first year i have started reading "How the Grinch stole Christmas" 

Which the Boys just LOVE and so do I!

Beacause it really shows how christmas means a little bit more! : D

 (I love doing the Grinchy voice too) lol

I'm seriously one of Dr Suess Biggest Fans!   

Well after all the fun of making the ATC's amd the candy canes...which i felt like a real little elf

Basic Grey Challenge

Hello Everyone : D

i think i may just have to invest  in some real time management

it seems i still have a time shortage

or maybe it has something to do with these

books i'm reading...lol

still i can't blame Stefan or Elane for my time management issues..lol

So for a quick creative fix i hopped onto this 

Basic Grey Challenge blog for a 

recipe challenge : D

3 x different pattern paper (basic grey of course - Urban Praie)

4x different embellishments (pearls, ribbon, buckle and flower)

2 x images and/or sentiments (Kiki with cupcake and Happy birhtday) 

  so if you love Basic Grey pop by and give the challenges a go!

great for a burst of inspiration too!

well i'm going to fly be back tomorrow for a little christmas post

 Happy Scrappen lovelies : D

Seem to be running out of time?!

Huge Hello Everyone!!

I am amazed at how time flys when you as too

busy!! with Chrissy just around the corner, school coming to an end

i seem to be running out of time to do things?! 

I really have been sitting down at the end of the day,

totally drainned and saying to myself...

"i really wanted to scrap today" 

oh well sleep is more needed! as well at the pestering Tooth ache!! 

Wisdom teeth pushing through and given me grief!

well i can't believe i only got one layout done in two weeks!!!!

that is just so unreal! i feel December is going to be filled with more

baking and cooking and cleaning , than scrappen or blogging!....AAARRHH!

oh well i'm sure i'll have lots of stuff to share after chrisssy and heaps of photos!!

so for the one layout i did get done, was for a challenge from Bo bunny 

to scrap a layout on "One thing i love about myself"

so i really love my imagination :D

always keeps me sane...in this reality one or other..lol

so i splashed out with the Bo bunny "sun kissed" papers and soaked up the brights : D

Oh how i wish i could freezer time so i could get more done, or just slow it down a little, that could help

with the kids growing up to quick too!..lol

Well i really hope your all getting chrissy stuff done before it get tooo crazy

i'll share with you all my chrissy tree cookies i'm baking for presents and for Ash's Kindy class

they are so easy to make , look fantastic and are YUMMY!!

well since it is the firsat of December it's time to put up the chrissy tree in our house : D

Happy scrappen lovelies hope to blog again soooonnnn!!!! : D

   

Lets get Picky!

Huge hello everyone : D

Oh what a strange weekend!!

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..

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

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}
