Ali's Challenge

While surfing some blogs I can across this Challenge on Ali Stafford Blog:http://www.alistafford.blogspot.com/
take the time to visit her blog for further details.
Here are some:
"I want you all to post in your blogs 10 of your layouts. It doesn't matter if you've already uploaded them to your blog before - just think of it as giving us all a "refresher".
Now - these 10 layouts - they have to be a *certain* 10.
I want to see the 10 layouts which are either:

(a) your favourite 10 layouts; or
(b) the 10 layouts that you're most proud of; or
(c) 10 layouts that have some really special significance ; or
(d) a combination of any of the above!"


Here we go:This is one of my most recent, using Rhonna Farrer stamps and white paint. Great Photo.


This second one is of Jacks good friend Cody playing in the sand pit with Baby Born, hehe too funny. Fabric Flowers.

The third is of Jack having a ice cream down the beach at Torquay, this was done for the 123 Challenge.
This is an old one, very simple, but I just love the colours. I actually covered the WeR Memonry Keepers letters with cardstock to match, took ages!
This one has to be at least 2 years old, I'll never rip this one up! LOL.lLove the colours in this also, that blue I just adore. oh! now this one, was a mistake, I accedently printed this photo on a4 but it worked out OK, this was a milestone for me, the 1st time I'd written on a photograph.
another milestone, this was the 1st layout I'd incorporated hand stitching and doodling.

I choose this one as I adore the feel and the colours in the photos, this was done in my Fabric period, I couldn't stop using it! Funny thought when people see it they only see the word" bum", not the wordbeach! LOL Another 123 Challenge, RF stamps again, very subtle.
oh now this one is old too, did this for that For Keeps competition, think I only entered once!

Welcome Lisa.......


Well as promised, Jack finally got his Mouse today, her name is Lisa and she is so beautiful.

However I do think she is missing her brothers and sisters as she seems so lonely, I checked her just now and she is huddled in a tight little ball with her nose all the way under her tummy, between her back feet.

Wayyyyyyy to cute, I love her already.

My sister turned 50!!!

She's a party girl, she has a party house, she a art collector and a world traveller!

No shes not wearing wings, just a quirky photo I guess, she is actually standing in front of a piece of art work, a statue of a Angel. Looks cool though!
Her daughter Lindsay on the right and step daughter Clare on the left, did a wonderful job on the speeches, very very funny!

Then Phil, her partner made a speech, then the traditional song was sung, by us all, a funny twist on " These are a few of my favourite things" all related to Fiona's life. Way too funny!

The next photo is of Fiona and I, there is 10 years difference, yup so that means I'll be forty this year, and I'm telling you, its making me feel sick!
Its was stinking hot!, There was no breeze, we left about 11 o'clock, Bronte fell asleep in the car just after we drove past Luna Park.
I remember doing the same with my parents, when we were out, but in my case it was passing the drive in movies in Burwood.
Chat soon Girls!

Update

This is just about the most beautiful picture Bronte has ever drawn, I think this little girl just about sums up how all little girls should look, How about that beautiful Big smile, too cute!

I am so pleased to be able to play with MME "Happieness is Bliss" and "Only You" range of Papers from Scrapbook Divas:

This layout is made from a photo of my Neice Hayley and her adorable Puppy Charlie, its just about the best photo I ever scrapped with.

Scrapbooking Memories Vol 8 No 8

Well I haven't actually seen this Mag yet, but so I have been informed, my Poppet below has been published in there, but the silly people have got the names of the artists mixed up so this one actually does not have my name underneath it. Sheesh!!! what a disappointment! So has this Poppet my niece Lindsay created on the same day I did mine. She made a poppet of her sister Hayley, its just amazing considering Lindsay is not a experienced scrapper! and boy am I jealous she got published straight away!, and here I am submitting layout every week, hoping and preying they will pick one of mine.


So I've gone Poppet mad!! and made another two today, I've started a journal and this is the 1st page to it, with Bronte as a Poppet Fairy!



and this handsome guy is a bloke at work who asked me to do one for him, I hope he likes it!
See you all later guys, take care!

I have a very dear friend....



Did you know? Maybe you don't but her name is Fleur and she is just about the most thoughtful person around I recon.

I had a surprise on Monday night, The postman delivered a Pizza box to my door, and this was in it! From Fleur!!!
How amazingly generous!!!!!!!!!!!

There is some Bazzil Bling in there and its just so yummy!

Thank you so much Fleur, is it a dare?? maybe you should dare me to do something with it?

Now I have another layout to share with you:

I was at http://www.scraptherapy.com.au on the weekend and completed one of Nat's challenges, we were to take inspiration from her site design, its very 1590's and some of the girls did some brilliant work. I like doing this, I like that I'd used loads of my Alohas, gee I get sick of them quick!
Oh and it appears I won a prize on the top50CC, for the layout of did of Simone, Its a Urban Lilly pack and I'm so thrilled my Layout was chosen, thanks Top50 and Urban Lilly!
Oh and other news, I've finally had a layout accepted for Scrapbooking Creations, for issue 43, it was the layout titles Lucky.
Phew I must say, Phew I've been anxious to be published and now that one has been accepted I feel like I can now breathe a little easier.
Loads to say I hope to god!, this was not boring for you to read.
Oh and I'm most likely going to sell the SIZZIX Machine and accessories, so if anyone in Melb would like to buy it, we could work something out.
Chat to you all again very soon!
Bye for now

First day of School for Bronte




I guess I could say its been a long time coming.

Kinder last year was a nightmare, two 1/2 day and one full day,....... and by full it meant she finished at 3.15!!!

Child care in this State is a disgrace and an insult to working mothers.

At age 4, most children are ready to spend more than a morning with their peers, most mothers have returned to work and need the community support.

I was longing for this day to come, but behold the State had more little surprises for me , Preppies don't attend School on Wed! Why I don't know? My child just wants to go to school, why do the Education Dept feel the need to limit School Starters?????

Is there care provided at the School on these Wednesdays, No!

Why would there be??

All us mothers sit at home baking cakes, well don't we??

Sheesh am I alone on this???

Anyway much to the Education Departments surprise, Bronte is ready for school and cant wait to get there everyday. The transition has been very successful, a little hiccup though, she seems no to fit into her shoes anymore!!

My sister did say her girls grew out off everything at the beginning of the school year, shoes and uniforms. Guess this is the case with Bronte, we tried every pair she had this morning, to no avail.

Throughout the summer she just wore slip ons, and not much else, especially at the Beach................anyway these are a few happy snaps from yesterday.

123 CHALLENGE


Phew!............. I seriously did not think I'd be doing this challenge, as I'm so OVER fabric, but the better part of me took over and I completed this one Sat night.

The challenge was to create a page made up of Fabric , lots of Chipboard and Main Focus on Journalling.
I'm finding journalling comes a little easier lately, but I am increasingly frustrated by haveing to " go over" my original writing, does anyone else have that problem?

Gee I love a good Cyber Crop, I've come home early from Torquay with Scrapping in mind. I've missed it so much, I just couldn't wait to get back into the swing of things.
Bugger that the kids love the beach and all the trees to climb and friends to run around with, Mummy has some scrapping to catch up on!
Crafting in Style held their monthly CC last night see link:
This is my entry to Challenge number 1.
There are three challenges set for the weekend, but I think my limit will be just this one.

Summer..................





Were back from the beach!!! for a little while anyway. For those of you who dont know, we set up our caravan down at Torquay from December to April every year.


I like to spend the school Holidays down there with the kids, but this year I've come home for a little while.


I miss my scrapping and have so many ideas I need to get down, it was tearing me apart.


I have some photos to share,..... not many mind you, dont know why but I did not get the camera as often as I would normally.


There are always many parties down the beach, last weekend a wonderful lady celebrated her 60th Birthday with a full-on Torquay Party!!


The food was delicious, there was plenty of booze and laughter, its so relaxing that people would just pop off for a swim, only to come back refreshed and ready for more.


It rained all day but that could never dampen the Torquay spirit!


Her family suprised us all with MR Whippy for desert, we all stuffed our faces with Ice Cream and Gelati.....................


I think Jack and Bronte had two helpings!!
Hope everyone is well, I'll talk to you all very soon!

Blouse Chest


Many Many years ago I saw a beautiful chest of drawers in an Antique shop in Geelong, years after that I saw one, revamped so beautifully by a woman who owned and ran a Shabby Chic shop in New Street Brighton,. She had her chest for sale at $595.00!!!
I'm not sure of the origins of these drawers, but I know they were for young ladies to keep their shirts in, all puffed up with tissue paper, to keep them pressed and perfect, how totally wonderful!
I have made recent enquiries, but I'd be grateful if anyone who happens to read my blog and knows of these chests, could leave a comment, thank you.

It was then I thought, before I die, I'd love a Blouse Chest and Baby Powder Blue VW Beetle.

Well it just so happens that my keen eye spotted a Blouse Chest while driving past a second hand dealer in Cente Road Bentleigh.

Such a long long story, and a streesful wait for the store to open, but this chest was on sale for $69.00!!!!!

I couldnt believe my luck, and snatched it up straight away!
Once its repainted and the old, {but beautiful} fabric covered with something funky and pink? {maybe even that Gingham that I adore}
It will be in Bronte's room for her clothes and stuff, look how tall it is! She can barely see over the top.
Way way to special..............

Bonnie at Bon's Scraps is interested in seeing your tree, so why dont you pop over and upload a photo, you could just be lucky enough to win a prize, here's the link:http://www.bonsscraps.com.au/ Can you see the little mouse and a scrapbooking decoration?


Bronte pulling her best Christmas Grinch face.

The tree is up and I wanted to share with you.

The kids did the decorating themselves, I think they did a terrific job!

and here they are.....................

Olivia lives a few doors down and she visits us daily, she often will come in complaining and talking alot, she likes loads of cuddles and as quickly as she came, she off again. Jack loves cats, and on this day she sat on his tiny lap, contented, while he played computer games, her eyes were half closed most of the time in sheer bliss of all the attention she was getting from Jack. These are great memories.
Opps just realised you have seen this, but I cant delete it, so bad luck girls!


Like Brontes hat?, well she stole it from Santa! As you can see she, was caught on camera frolicking in the bay at Ricketts Point wearing his hat. Sprung Bad Bronte!




This layout was done for Charmaine and Karlene's new venture on Charmaine's blog






Go and check out this challenge there is loads of prizes and heaps of scrapping to be inspired by and I'm sure the girls would love to see new work.
