Phew!

Sheeze it’s been a busy week, and having a cold still has slowed me down a bit but them’s the breaks!
If you’ve never checked out the Aussie site Embellished (.com.au) then it’s well worth a look. They’re currently doing a Design Team call and I’ve given it a go, I can’t show you what I’ve [...]

Exciting stuff!

Yup, my first online class and it’s all about layering. Layering your pages can take them from just nice, to WOW – and there’s a definite knack to it. So we’re having an online class in March devoted to teaching you how layer effectively, and creating a cool layout in the process…
The kit contains everything [...]

He’s back

Yep, my gorgeous wee fella is back to being his usual gorgeous wee fella self. Think he must be feeling better as he’s been an absolute sweetheart the last couple of days. And I’m relieved.
Big step today as well. Yep, my big boy is starting toilet training and I’ve bought him a potty (actually a [...]

Ashamed

Final one…

Yay! I finally scrapped this photo of Joshie taken last year, he’d been told off at Kindy for biting another child and we were defending him saying he wouldn’t have done it unprovoked. They were adamant (this was the horrible Kindercare) that he just decided to attack this kid but when his eye went like [...]

Decision made

After a few weeks of umming and aahing over whether to try for the Prima Hybrid team I’ve decided to go for it. I’ve got a lot on with my own stuff I’m trying to do, but I really love to do Hybrid layouts and I’ve got nothing to lose by giving it a go [...]
