Just a quickie

Aaaaaw I went and saw a new baby tonight. Soooo cuuuute! Little Rhys, didn't even make me clucky though so I am definately NOT having anymore kids. My 2 have driven me insane lately, a 3rd would send me over the edge completely!!!

While they were at mum's and I had a spaer hour I got busy with publisher and finally made the raffle books, made the covers, posters, flyers and even did the calendar bottoms. Now I just have to print out 150 copies of raffle tickets, and over 1000 pages of calendars!!! Geeez I'll be a busy girl! Here is the 2008 calendar, every page is a different colour scheme. I just hope it is all right, I make it all manually using a spread sheet. Hope the dates are all correct. Then everyone makes an A4 sized custom top which I laminate and bind with the bottom. Finished product looks really good if I do say so myself. Now I just have to get time to make one for us and all the family members!! We usually raise over $1000 each year doing this fundraiser but I have to do it ALL and it is a LOT of work.

And here is the top half! Closest thing I'll get to a layout for now :( I'm really happy with it.

FREEBIE

When I saw this photo I just HAD to scrap it. It is the best photo ever. So I did a page to capture it's beauty. These 2 cute little girls belong to a friend and I just hope she likes what I have done. So girly and glittery and of course BUTTERFLIES!!! What little girl doesn't like butterflies & glitter?

Howdy

Boring day. Playgroup this morning, work all arvo. Loads of housework as well as a baby who was a psycho all day! Talk about tantrum chucker!!! Thank god she is in bed that's all I can say. This page has taken me forever to finish, but I like it. It is a scraplift but I can't find the page. I will credit the artist as soon as I find it!

A different of my layouts made it into gallery standouts this week! How awesome! YAY. Only ever had one other page make it in before. Check it out here it's this one:

FORD 1, 2, 3!!

Yay FORD got 1, 2, 3 at Bathurst today!! Go Lowndesy!! Basically a wasted day today. First we went and registered Deacon at Little Athletics and then spent the day watching Bathurst at Col's. Deacon & Kaylee both had a great play day. Then home for a bath where Kaylee decided to hop in fully clothed! I wished I'd had my camera handy. This is the page I did last night. I always loved Juliet's page See The World so I scraplifted it when I found these free leaves last night.

Seriously the BESTEST day EVER!!!!

Ok part 1.
I got layout of the month at Peppermint Creative! woo hoo!!! Soooo happy about that you CANNOT believe it!!! Read about it here I already spent $$$ this morning on new stuff that was released so now I have extra $$$ to spend yippee!!! So far this is what I have bought today BEFORE I got the prize hahaha.

Part 2.
I got RAK'ed by Annie Manning and got this free kit. I just can't wait to use it. I saw the leaves used in a few layouts at DST and loved them alone, now I have the whole thing!!!

I loved this idea from the Funky Playground Blog I didn't completely overhaul mine, just fixed them up. I always liked my idea, but the execution just wasn't right. I am especially happy with Caramel Pudding. Slowly I will redo all of my cringe worthy layouts. Click on layouts for full credits.

TGIF

We went to Ballarat today. Just for some shopping. Kaylee just loved playing on the McDonald's playground for the first time today. It was soooooo cold I felt like the wind was made of razorblades.

Did OK with my calories today. I think.....just have to see what a backyard burger is worth.

This is the page I did tonight, click for credits.

New layout and the most beautiful flowers ever!

I hate doing girl pages, I just suck totally. Boy pages are so easy, girl pages end up too frilly and sickly sweet for me. But now I have some great ideas from posters and I'll be doing more girl pages from now on.

These are just zoom in's of my page to show the gorgeous flowers and the little pink diamontes.
