Christmas is nearly HERE!!

Yes, it is that time of year again. Surprisingly you would think things would be stopping me from getting my scrapbooking done... but no! We have actually re-arranged the house so that I can get more done! How GREAT is that. In the midst of the reorganisation I managed to get my DT pack from Tomorrow's Memories finished. It will be sent off in the morning, so no doubt you will be able to check them out sometime next week when they arrive in Perth!

I was lucky enough to receive some more Daisy Bucket papers to work with. I had the "Merry Wishes' range which was SO easy to work with. I'm still enjoying the double stitching on my work which I started doing about a year ago when decorating my son's room... it is great because you don't have to be exact about it... which USUALLY would drive me insane not to be absolutely perfect, but I am learning to relax more and just do things more freehand...
Hope you like what I created.

Austin update

Well I am currently still working on some new stuff for Tomorrow's Memories, they are taking me longer than I would like but I am getting there and will show soon!

In the mean time I thought I would share some photos I took of my little man yesterday. They were taken of him with the toy his dad bought for him while we were in hospital and matches his room so they will be up in his room real soon. I had some real fun taking them and changed them to sepia to match in better with the colours of his room.

Paperific 2009

I was fortunate enough to go to Paperific on the weekend and it was fantastic. The Twiddleybitz stand was buzzing the whole time!! It was so great to meet a heap of lovely customers and have the opportunity teach make and takes and do a demo of the Large easel and some Christmas Santa keys. Here are some photos of my day there.

These are of the Twiddleybitz stand taken at the end of the day when I could get a chance without the swarms of people!


Bit of a closer one of the Santa keys I decorated...

This is the easel that I had the pleasure of doing displaying a layout I completed last year for SIA.

Just loved those Prima flowers and glass beads I used on this. Oh and one of Sherry's flowers - they are SOOO pretty Sherry!
Here is a couple of close up's of the work I did for the show...

This is my curly Christmas tree, I loved doing this one... covered in embossing powder, bling (hard to see in the photo) and crystals.


This is the new floating frame I completed as well, complete with my son's 12 week old footprints and hand prints (scanned and printed onto bazzil cardstock)



Sorry about the small amount of posting lately, I am sure I will get in to a rhythm real soon!!

PAPERIFIC IS HERE!!!

Sorry I have not been blogging lately. I am sure I will get back into the swing of things real soon! Austin is 6 months old on Monday and we have FINALLY finished the cold yo yo between the two of us that lasted 2 months! Of course this put me behind AGAIN... but I have been busy creating stuff for TM and Twiddleybits which I will share real soon.



BUT in the mean time if you want to see some of my recent work and work by the other girls on Twiddleybitz's design team, come check us out at Paperific this weekend. We are at booth 11. I will be doing some make and takes today and would love to see you and have a chat!

Enjoy your weekend everyone, and in the mean time I will share a new photo of my beautiful boy!

Yes he is sitting really well now and loves the new view on the world!

Have a great weekend everyone, and I will post some new stuff shortly!!
