Im flooded in :-O

Look at my backyard..........this might not seem too bad but my house is up off the road......the water is creeping its way halfway across my side patio.Al tried to go to work this morning and there where cars floating....yep you read it right floating down the road :-O Apparently the we are cut off from both sides so we are stuck :( Im so not impressed.......I was meant to be going down to Lyns house to look after the kids while she moves house but unless the rain stops IMMEDIATELY or we build a boat (LOL) I wont be going anywhere :( We have had to let the dogs in (just in case they float away lol jokes) because there is nowhere dry for them to sit outside.....even the back verandah is soaked :(

I had a go at this months challenge at Inkurable stampers last night and made covered a Basic Grey chippie album so I can write all my fave quotes in it :-D Sarahs theme for this month is ribbon and lace so its very girly and very me :-)

Oh and yay woohoo I won a $10 voucher for my LO "you are so pretty" at Enchanted Scrapbooking!!How chuffed am I :-D

Have a great day lovelies......the rain has stopped for now fingers crossed it stays that way!

LOTS to share :)

Fir the first time in ages I joined in the CC at scrapboutique and did the above LO using a sketch by Liz Weber.......me looking very happy about my choccie mud cake for my birthday LOL


I also joined in the CC challenges at Enchanted Scrapbooking and the following 3 LO's are for their challenges :) "you are so pretty" was part of a challenge to scraplift a LO that was Jodi's,the "1 fine day" LO was inspired by a picture chosen by Tracey and the "2 cute little chickies" LO was a challenged set by Tiff :) Thanks for a fandabbydosey scrappy weekend girls:)

My LIme Rickey cards for Wicked Princesses!OMG I loved this kit sooooooo much!I have done a 4th card but just realised I havent photographed it yet oopsies my bad LOL I think there may be a couple of kits left but im not sure.....you can check out my worksheets as well as some from Tanya and Chloe HERE!!

This week the sin at Wicked Princesses is greed :) So you need to scrap about what you cant get enough of,what do you have alot of etc and it needs to be black white and yellow.......I did mine on Josh and his need for speed :D This boy cant help but go fast whether it be on two wheels or 4!Im so pleased with how the LO turned out I couldnt wait to share :D

Im joining in the Lights Camera Action comp at CIS where each week we are to draw our inspiration from a different movie poster each week.Week 1 was "the sound of music" and I used the quote "a few of my favourite things" (my peeps of course!) as my title:D Its a fun comp, this week is ET!Ive already finished it :O

I can now show you my class kits for A PASSION FOR CRAFT!!The 2 LO's below are on sale as a kit for a s little as $16.00 each!Yep thats cheap hey :) I had enough from the "you are wonderful" kit to do 2 LO's and a card.....cant beat that for value hey!Hope you all like the kit and hopefully buy one ...or two LOL Im putting together a blind scrap for all the girls over there, just for fun next week or so ,so if any of you would like to join in or see what else is happening please come on over its a fab site with a lovely forum :D

Im off again this weekend......Im on Auntie duty for my beloved peeps while Lyns and Matt move house :D Mum and I have it all planned out- a few hours at the park then off to the movies :D oh with a good dose of lollies and fun stuff in between :) Cant wait!I'll have the camera madly snapping away (of course) Ive got lots of scrapping to do and more gorgeous piccies will come in handy!

Little Olly is going good :) He climbed up my arm today and sat on my shoulder!I was so excited LOL he then started chirruping in my ear and preening my hair PMSL I think he likes me :D So cute

Okies best be off sorry about the massive post.......

My new little friend :)

He is a bit camera shy LOL

LOL he likes my venetian blinds :)

Had a fab day today :) Al and I had a much deserved sleep in then went for a drive up the sunny coast to quote a job :) That may not sound nice but for a couple who never get any time together it was nice LOL We got to the job site and Al went off to meaure up and do whatever it is he does to work out quotes (LOL) then he came and said asked me to come with him for a minute......all I could think was if its something gross or scarey im going to slap him we get around the corner and there sitting on the ground was this little grey and white cockatiel picking away at the grass.....I walked up to him and he didnt fly away or even panic :O I asked Al if anyone was living in the house he is quoting and he said the place is going to be torn down and the tennants had been evicted.It was then that I noticed all the rubbish and household bits and bobs everywhere all over the yard.....including a mangled bird cage.Turns out the tennants had just left the poor little birdy there :( so............he (could be a girl who knows LOL) is part of my little brood now Ive called him Olly :) I couldnt leave him there a wild bird wouldve killed him :( plus his wings are clipped so he wouldnt have been able to get away if a cat came along.He is sleeping on top if the venetian blinds right now lol so cute all tucked up snoozin :)Mum and dad have a big cage they have offered me so that'll be good. He is so cute hey :) My little Olly bird :)
