MERRY CHRISTMAS......

WISHING YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS
Full of fun, friends, family, laughter and love!

thanks for all the PMs, emails, comments of congratulations! I am really overwhelmed by the wonderful online communities in the scrapping world. I am very excited about Masters and all the wonderful scrappers I get to work with next year. I am yet to see the mag!LOL!

I'm very lucky as my MIL is hosting Christmas this year - she loves to play hostess and god is she a great cook! So I can't wait! Poppy doesn't quite get it yet but I know she'll love her new toys! The day after boxing day we are off to see my family and staying for New Years! YAY!

I hope you all have a wonderful day and stay safe!

Here are a few things I have been working on....

Christmas cards
Altered Calendars...

And this CUTE notebook/journal....

If you want to make one I'm doing the class on them at SCRAPTIVATE...ring the shop and book in! Fun technique in this one!

Time flies...

...when you are having fun! Like everyone at this time of the year, we are soooooooo busy! With Christmas parties, catch ups, shopping, birthdays and a wedding - all fun and festive times!


I have done some scrapping but nothing I can share right now...so only some Christmas pics....the tree is up, the cards are made, the presents just need wrapping!
How are your Christmas preparations coming along?


I'm already excited about the new year ahead with lots of fun opportunities, work options, scrapping activities, photo challenges, (hopefully a new study course) and finally house renovations...already presenting themselves!

It's beginning to feel....

Alot like Christmas....

We are back from Melbourne and had a ball athough we missed our girl...still, it was great to have a few days just as a couple! Dinners & coffees, shopping - lots of shopping, movies, few wines...it was fabulous! Poppy was a good girl for her Nanny and Papa.

Now we are in Christmas mode, finishing up the shopping, Poppy had her photo with Santa - and no tears or tantrums but not much of a smile either, at least she sat on his knee! I just have to put up the tree, make my Christmas cards and few calendars for the grandparents!

Happy Birthday to MAZ!!!! X

An update of scrapping soon!

What a hoot....

Mel - the boss lady at Scrapworld sent me the MOST FABULOUS kit to work with - a huge pile of Sassafrasslass Owl paper...OMG I love every single inch of it!!! It was so easy to use...LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT.

I did a pile of LOs and still have some left for cards....but the cards will have to wait because we are off to Melbourne tomorrow - just Dh and I...Poppy is staying at her Nanny and Papa's house. It's exciting to get a break but a little stressful as I have never had a night away from my girl in two years - and we will be away for 5 nights! OMG! She will be fine - it's me that's not coping! But I'm sure the shoe shops on Chapel street and the cake shops at St Kilda will console me!LOL!

Hope you are having a great weekend! X

Check one, TWO...

OMG my baby is TWO! Yesterday Poppy celebrated turning two with a Ladybug theme party! Lots of food, lots of fun, lots of friends and yes she was thoroughly spoilt - new trike, a dolls pram, puzzles, books, playdough, clothes...the list goes on! She was the perfect hostess!

I can't believe two years have passed already! She is a joy....a busy joy!!!LOL!

Mini Album

I'm teaching this CUTE clear mini at Scraptivate on the 1st of December! It lots of fun! Ring the store if you want to come along!

Congratulations to Natalie and all the girls at Scraptivate...it's their first birthday already!!! It really is a great shop overflowing with inspiration! They have a sale on this weekend in celebration so pop in if you are a local!

I will be popping in on Wednesday because I am meeting up with the awesome Donna J...she is over here visiting family! Soooooooo excited to be meeting her...Milly and Poppy are going to have a play too!!
