I always know that December is a stupidly busy month for us and I know that I always spend every night in the week before Christmas in the kitchen cooking treats and wrapping presents.... So why on earth did I think that doing a December Daily album was a great idea??!! I'm sure I'm not the only person who has felt this...
These gorgeous little pieces from Words or Whatever in their Christmas release are just amazing. Can you tell I LOVE them? The moment I received my bag of goodies this month I wanted to play with them so sat down and scrapped a layout. Thats something I havent done for a while! I love nothing more at Christmas than to take...
Back again with more December Daily (also slightly unfinished), which I am trying to work on today and get it up to date. I am loving this project and can understand why people do it every year. December 7th I have added a paper bag from the packaging in the Studio Calico kit to give me some more room to add...
I'm dropping past with a quick Christmas card or gift tag idea. There Words or Whatever items come in both a light and dark wood veneer, but I couldn't help but cover them in gold embossing. The idea behind this card was found on Pinterest and inspired by Amanda Winkleman. Its a pretty simple card really. So easy yet effective. ...
AARRRRGGGGHHHHHH... Christmas is coming way too fast and I don't think I am going to have enough time to get everything done before the fat man comes!!!! Please tell me that I am not the only one who feels this way! I did want to stop in and share a couple more pages in my December Daily album using some of the...
This year I am trying my hand at a December Daily album. I thought it best to tackle this task with a pre done kit and there was no way I was going past the Studio Calico kit. I loved just about everything about it and it has made life just that little bit easier pulling the album together. Armed with the kit,...
I'm back again with another couple of pages from my USA Holiday capture album. I love how this album made with pocket pages along with cardstock pieces in full size and different pattern and size inserts. It is super fun to work with and embellish. I have been mainly sticking to the Basic Grey items that belong with this series, due to the...
I have been eyeing off these Basic Grey Capture Albums for a while. I finally took the plunge and bought one. I can say that I am having a lot of fun with this project. I have found that there is a bit of adjusting to do if you haven't tried any of the pocket page (Project Life) style scrapping, but I have...
Our beautiful niece Lily turned 13 yesterday. I have only been around the family for 6 years and first met Lil when she was 7. Lily is one of those people that appreciates everything, and I love nothing more than trying to come up with a new birthday card idea for her every year. It makes me feel good that she likes the...
Following on from my last blog post, last week saw the announcement of the final donation tally for the i98fm Camp Quality Convoy for 2013. The results are in and the event this year raised a massive total of $1,191,816.22. This event just keeps getting bigger and better each year. We cant wait to see what the 10th year has in store! The moment I was...
You know that feeling you get when you give without expecting to receive? The warm fuzzy feeling you get right to your core? That was us yesterday. The 9th annual i98fm Camp Quality Convoy. We had a 3.30am alarm set to get up and ready to roll out to door. Destination - Cleary Bros yard at Albion Park. On...
So, it is that time of year again. Time for all of the Illawarra trucking and biker community to come out and raise funds for Camp Quality.... Time to raise as much money as we can for kids living in our community with cancer. Time to make the 9th year as amazing as the last 8! This is a video from last...
I wanted to pop past and show a quick card that I pieced together a little while ago. This card was made using a single sheet of double sided scrap paper, and a small piece of cardstock. Using chipboard Dumptruck from Boy Truck Set (WOW726) To get the card to a size that it would fit in a pre-eixting envelope...

Day 7 saw our second full day in New York City. After spending time on the sight seeing bus the day before, we had decided that we would hit up Soho. I was desperate to head to the Converse store so that I could get my hands on some cheep and funky shoes that we cant get here (The US Converse site will...
