another class i did

another canvas i did at scraptacular

Ive been busy

Last week I went and did a Collections Christmas class at Scraptacular. I had a great time and just love my frame.

The class got me in the groove ...lol so I finally decorated and put together my ScrapWare Birdhouses.....loved doing this too.

ive been playing with opals again

I finally got a chance to sit down and have a play with the new opals colour - Abalone.

Heres what I came up with.

The flowers I made by making paper from the opals then I punched out the flowers. Then I embossed the flowers in the cuttlebug and rubbed them with some pink pearls.

I am pretty happy with how the LO came together.

See it at Paperific this weekend.

Its been so long

Wow Its been ages since I last posted. Time flies when you are having fun.
I have been doing a bit of scrapping lately...I will share soon.
Jayde has been and come back from camp. Camp was quite local at Mt Evelyn just up the road but I think she felt like she was a world away. I think she actually missed us all too, which is nice. You reckon she was tired when she got back....lol I dont think they got alot of sleep. She went on the flying fox, rope swing and alot of hikes. She even had a snake around her neck when the wildlife man gave them a lecture on reptiles.
I havent been doing alot , just the same old .....lol
I am off to make chrissy cards at Fleur's on sunday......its getting close and I thought I would get a head start on the cards.
Thats it for now.
I promise it wont be that long between posts from now on.......yeah yeah I can hear u all say.....lol

my scrap space

Hi all,

I just thought I would share with you my scrap space. I finally took a couple of pics. All the cubes were made by Bob........he spoils me I know and I love it......lol

Please dont look at my messy table I was in creative mode last night.

Wow I havent added anything here since Feb....how slack is that....dont answer that....lol

I have been scrapping though ....I promise....lol

I have moved house thats a big enough excuse I reckon. Especially when we moved ourselves with just a normal small trailer........all I can say is NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!! Next time I hire some nice strong men to do it all in one go.

Anyway .... I just wanted to show you all my first class LO for Creative Dreams. Yes I am their new scrapbooking teacher....woohoo

creative Dreams is a shop in Boronia on Dorset Rd in case you didnt know.

Heres my LO using the new Kaiser PP Cafe Culture .

I scrapped AT LAST!!!!!!!!

Wow I cant believe how long its been since my last post.....I am slack I'm sorry. But I have been on holidays.....The kids and I went to Rosebud camping on the foreshore for a week. We had such a good time.

School has started for 2008.....yippee. Thats why i have scrapped. I had to cover Treys reader. The teacher said just get a patterned contact but Trey has a scrapper for a mother and well I couldnt just cover it with contact.....omg how bad a mother would I be.

This is what I did with it.
