The other reason

So the other reason for the lack of posting and the lack of scrapbooking is because my hubby and I are expecting baby number 4. I was unfortunately blessed with over 2 months of sickness and also feeling tired.

But I think now that I am halfway. Yep 20 weeks I am starting to feel better and less tired so hope to get back into the swing of getting creative again as I have really missed it.

I will leave you with some 3D pictures of our little surprise package :)

Quick Share

Our renovations are getting closer to being finished. The concreting is done, new carport is done, front fence is done. Just need the pool fencing and the side fencing/gates the irrigation and landscaping. Very exciting and just in time for the wet season.

I still haven't had time to scrap and my scraproom is plain dirty. So last weekend I started to clean but it is a big job so will try to finish cleaning this weekend and hopefully get back into the swing of creating again. It has been about 4 months I think.

I will leave you with the last layouts I did back in August which I haven't shared before. Just simple layouts again as I am enjoying the less is more.

Missing in Action

Yep I have been missing in action!!

Why you ask?

Well lots of reasons - work, kids, sport, general life and then there are the books I have been hooked on (Janet Evanovich - Stephanie Plum Series) and lastly home renovations (second driveway, new carport, fencing, concreting, exterior painting and eventually landscaping). The outside looks like one big great dirt pit with a bit of grass that has finally grown back. But in the next 2-3 weeks will be transformed and be well worth the wait and mess. Not enjoying the constant dust that goes with the dirt pit. Pictures to come later.

I have also taught my first and second class at LSS Stamp Craft (see images below). I am looking forward to teaching again.




Either than my classes I haven't done any scrapping for such a long time (about 3 months I think). I am eager to get back in my room and get into it again. I did attend LSS retreat about two months ago now. Will share the few layouts I managed in the next post. Just need to get my camera to behave itself to download.

Kitty Robot Sneak Peak

A little KITTY ROBOT SNEAK PEAK of two sets of buttons, and a new pair - these will be up in the store on August 10th...

A fruit salad collection, and some nautical themed buttons...as well as cameras!

Exciting stuff

Kitty Robot has been very busy creating away and have made some awesome new buttons for their ETSY store. I personally love the little houses. Colours are just fantastic and very, very cute. You can check it out here.


Well my motto is a bargain is a bargain if it isn't shared. Pink Paislee are having a warehouse sale. They are clearing out their older lines ready for new ones. If you love Pink Paislee this is the sale for you.

Here are some words from their website –
We have assembled “grab bags” (oopss we mean…grab boxes) that are stuffed full of product and they are ready to ship out NOW. Each box is stuffed with product that has a retail value of over $150 and the warehouse price for each box is $45 US dollars. Each box includes papers, embellishments, clear stamps, press ons, ribbons, clear overlays, alphabet stickers and so much more!

And as a special surprise when you order one of our “warehouse sale” boxes you will also get a sneak peek of our CHA summer release papers. YES you heard me right….every box will also include 1 sheet of paper from our yet to be seen summer release.

Lucky Me

A few blog posts ago I shared my good fortune when I was lucky to win Cassandra's blog RAK. Well it arrived last week. Not only was I excited to have in my hot little hands the gorgeous handmade canvas but she spoilt me by including additional goodies too. Thank you to Cassandra for her generosity!!!

Here is a pic of all my goodies :)


My mum arrives on Thursday morning to look after my girls for the 4 week school holidays. Can't wait to see her again and spend some time with her. The girls just love spending time with her and hopefully get some good photos.

Not much else to share at the moment. Have been busy with work, sport, and family commitments. Hoping to get in the scraproom tonight and have a play.
