Have you checked out the new challenge from Pagemaps on the Scrapsidaisy Forum? If not you should. Its not hard to join in the fun. So come on over & have a look see!
This is the new map for Challenge number 15 & my version of the map-


Thank you to everyone that sent me Birthday wishes last week. It sure was one very special day. & haw spoilt was I!!!!
The Kids are still on school holidays at the moment & boy am I enjoying the sleep ins. I have even managed a few early nights this week. The kiddies have been super well behaved, which helps & we have been keeping super busy. The weather has been lovely too so that is always a bonus.
I will share my pages from the weekend. I even managed to create a canvas for on of my Great Nieces 1st birthday. I created it in less then an hour so I am pretty happy with how it turned out!


I am still a novice with my Cricut BUT over the weekend I managed to work out how to shadow my titles so I am EXCITED!!!

This layout is DAISY the Dairy cow. A few posts back I mentioned Daisy was the new cow that my Kiddies named after the ever so lovely Scrapsidaisy...LOL...so of course I had to scrap a layout about her....he he he.

My Daughter took this pic of me on the camera that she got for Christmas & I guess that is how they see me. Aren't the Dream street papers yummo!

This pic of Brock is a laugh! The papers are Kaiser & they are lush as well!


Maddy went with her BIG GIRL cousins to HSM On Ice earlier in the year so I had to scrap that TOO!
Well that has been a very long post. I am grateful if you are still reading...LOL. So thanks again for stopping by & be sure to leave a comment to let me know that you were here.
Have a great week
HUGS

I'm feeling loved!!!!!!

Today I celebrated my Birthday & boy ohhh boy do I feel loved!

I am such a lucky girl to have so many caring Friends & such loving family. I, to say the least, have been extremely spoilt!

My day started off with a surprise party at work with Leisa secretly organising for all the girls to surprise me as I arrived for work. Thank YOU from the bottom of my heart girls for making my day soooo special.All day I had friends call in to wish me a happy Birthday & then When I left work I came home to my family to a lovely baked dinner, a box of chocolates & a bunch of red roses & all this was on top of my pressies this morning before work. My kiddies gave me a new bag & wallet while my hubby got me a George Foreman Healthgrill. That is also on top of the cricut that I got a few weeks ago that the lovely Leisa upgraded to an expression for me. PLUS the girls this morning gave me lots of lovely goodies. Tonight I had lots of phone calls,pressies & visits from family & friends. SOOOO needless to say I am feeling Very, very LOVED!!!!!!!

I will share some pics of some of my pressies-

So again THANK you to everyone that made my day soooooo special. You truly are amazing & know how to make a "young" girl feel special

Thanks for visiting

Time flies

Time flies when you are havin FUN!

Saturday we held a Christmas in July @ Scrapsidaisy & wowsers we had a fun time.

The girls were so creative. Their pages were amazing! It gave me so much inspiration ( I have been lacking of late!) I came home ready to go....here is a bit of what I did-

Firstly I created this canvas for my sisters birthday. This is a pic of my great niece, Liliana, isn't she adorable! I used the new My Minds Eye 29th Street Market paper range, Bella chip, MM lace,flowers & buttons & my Cricut to cut out the title. (I am so loving my Cricut!)

The next page is with pic's of my D.D & another Great niece, Chloe. The papers & embellishments are M.M. I love the pics on this one.

I have created more but haven't taken pics as yet. I will share more when I get the pics done.

We are enjoying the school holidays here at the moment. The kiddies & I have been enjoying the beautiful weather. Today we went to visit Daddy at work. He has new cattle & we went to help him drench them...LOL...It was so much fun. While I was there I had to take a photo of "DAISY" the dairy cow. The kids named it last week...lol...I will share a pic-

isn't she cute!

these are some of my fave pics from the last few days.

Be sure to check out the Scrapsidaisy forum as in August we are having the ever so talented Kim Archer come for a visit. The day looks like it will be a huge one & numbers are limited & filling fast! The work that Kim does is amazing so if you are interested be sure to ring the shop real quick!

have a great week & thanks for stopping by

Enjoy

Weekend update!

Hi all!

I hope everyone is enjoying this gorgeous weekend.

It sure is so noice to see the sun shining!

I have been super busy over the last couple of weeks so not a lot of scrapping has been done. We had a weekend in Sydney last weekend as my D.D had a specialist appt so we turned it into a mini holiday & took in all the sights & did all the tourist things...lol. We even went to the N.S.W Art Gallery. That is so not something I would have been interested in a couple of years ago. BUT hey I must be growing up...LOL...OR getting old more like it.

Enough of the rambling.

I will share my couple of pages that I have created. The first is a page that I created last night. I am so lucky! I purchased a Cricut machine from work at SCRAPSIDAISY & the lovely Leisa upgraded it to an Expression for me. So last week I got an early birthday pressie!! WoooHOOO.....I'm excited. Anyway with all the events of the last couple of weeks I really hadn't had the opportunity to have a decent play! Last night I pulled it out & set it up on its very own little table & away I went. I cut out all different arrows & alphas to create this-

I LOVE this pic of Brock....BUT the smile is not looking like that at the moment....Insert sad face!!! This arvo he accidently hit himself in the face with a tennis racket & broke off one of those gorgeous top teeth....another sad face......after many phone calls to Dr's & dentists it has now been decided that he doesn't NEED a dentist today & that it can wait until Monday morning & he will se a dentist to have it fixed.........:-( :-( :-( :-( :-(...lets just hope that it can be!!!!

This is a page that I did a couple of weeks ago. Using the yummy M.M Noteworthy range!

If you are still reading....THANKS...I hope you have a good one

ENJOY

Long weekend of rain........

You know you are old when.......

You are are "GREAT Aunty"....LOL. This is a pic of my gorgeous sister who became a Grandma yesterday for the first time. Can you see how proud she is? My nephew (Grandma's son) Chris & his partner, Carly, welcomed Liliana into the world yesterday afternoon. She is a little unwell but nothing too serious really & we are all busting to have cuddles. I am so happy for the family & excited for my Sister & brother in law. They will be the bestest grandparents.

Onto scrapping now- I have still had the mojo happening & have finished off a few pages over the weekend. Challenge 9 & 10 at SCRAPSIDAISY Forum & a couple of others. I will share with you now. I feel as if I am rambling on here....

This page of my D.D I created using 3 Bugs In A Rug (Luke & Lola) paper range, Die cuts, Bella blossom, Kaiser bling, Basic Grey stamps & my trusty black pen.

This page of "Me" I used the following goodies- Basic Grey "Sugared" papers & Element stickers, Maya Road chip letters, Dew Drop inks, Dimensional magic, Making Memories Edge distresser, Bella blossom & Cosmo Cricket rubon.

This is Challenge No.9 over at the Scrapsidaisy FORUM. Below is my attempt at the challenge.

I really enjoyed creting this page. I used heaps of Making Memories blossoms, buttons & felt. The other supplies were- Scenic Route "Grafton" p.p's, Deja Views wonderful words, Bella alphas, Hambly rubons & Black pen.

This is challenge NO.10- I got in a little earlier with this one. Below is my attempt as well.

I used Scenic Route p.p's (I know again!) Scenic Route stencil grid alphas, Basic Grey stamps & my fave of all time BLACK PEN....lol

If you are still reading THANK YOU! I am off to create another page & make a few cards to give to my new little "Great Niece"

Challenge catchup

Hi there,

I have created a few pages over the weekend that I thought that I would share-

The first is a challenge from the SCRAPSIDAISY Forum. It is challenge number 8-

(courtesy of http://www.pagemaps.com/)

This is my attempt at the challenge. I have used this years school photos of my D.D. It is so hard to believe that she is so big now. It seems like yesterday that she was starting school. Now she only has a year left & she will be in high school...........scary! I used the ever so YUMMY Dream Street papers. This range that I used is called Art Nouveau. Did I tell you it is YUMMO!!!!

The next page that I created was using the (JUST AS YUMMY) New Cupcake range from Basic Grey! It is this yrs school photo as well! I am amazed at how fast my D.S schooling is flying by as well!

A little brighter then my usual style BUT hey its great to be a little different sometimes.

Something else I have been working on this weekend is a Daisy Decor Mini hanging Album. I have been creating a calendar to display on the counter at work. It's not quite finished yet! but I thought that I would share it anyway!

That's about it for now.

Thanks to those that still visit!

Have a great week!

ENJOY

Hi there

I hope that all the Mums that read this had a fantadillyastic Mothers day!!!!! I certainly did! My hubby helped the kids out with brekkie and served it to me in bed. Then it was pressie time!!! BOY OH BOY did I get spoilt!!!!!! I hope that all you Mums did too. It is always a really hard day for me since I lost my own Mum 13 yrs ago. SO my Hubby & Kids tried so, so hard to make my day SUPER special & they sure did do that. PLUS a very special friend also bought me a lovely gift to make my day special rather then sad & she succeeded too....Thank you!!!!!!

I have been busy creating as well. I am loving all the new Basic Grey ranges atm. My fave would have to be the Archaic range. It is yummo...lol
I will share a few pages that I have created lately-

Brocks smile says it all. He was so proud!

Maddy's smile is just as big!!!!
