I made a giant black MVB rose and used a prima sultan centre to add a bit of blingage ....I do {heart} all things bling lol :)
Heres a couple of close-ups......sorry about the bunting Kate lol
My journalling.....directly onto the photo *shock horror* yes I was brave lol..........
I used one of the new flowers in the shop too :D A hot pink "Wicked Bella" :D

My handmade hearts :)

So its February already :O Does anyone else think this year is going quick already? A new month means new challenges and WP has heaps to choose from :D

A new month also means a day is looming.........im 13 days away from the big 30 :O Cant say im all that excited about it ....I normally love birthdays but this ones a humdinger lol Everyone is telling me good things about being in your 30's but I kinda feel like I shouldve achieved and done more before I turned 30..........totally feel like breaking into song *if I could turn back time.....* pmsl good job its a blog not a youtube video hey!

Okies better go and do some more work...and maybe more scrapping ;-)

Everyone who lives in FNQ please take care and be safe {{hugs}}

Chillaxin........

My nephew Josh and I always like to have a bit of fun and joke around with each other and his latest way to get a rise out of me is using the word "chillax" lol dont ask me why but it bugs me that word :$ so anywhoo he wrote it on my birthday card lol says it at every given opportunity and laughs so hard when I say " Josh! not that word!!" lol I was scrapping this LO yesterday at Nic's place and wanted to document that while his wrist was in plaster he had to relax and rest his arm and I said to Nic "Josh would say he's chillaxin" so she dared me to use my disliked word as the title lol Josh laughed when I told him :) The things Aunties do lol



I used the "Boys will be Boys" kit available now from wicked (there arent many left if you want one you might have to be quick ;-) )


The kit comes with an A2Z scraplet cogs strip and I trimmed it down to create this :)


I added some other alphas from my stash (only becuase I like mixed alpha titles :) )




Do you like it Josh? Hope so :)
Thanks for visiting :) Im off to cook dinner :)

scrapping and flowers :)

I had another play with the "Beautiful Sophie" kit :D I am a wee bit in love with those flowers I think lol

Heres a quick close up :)


and a shockingly dodgy photo of the LO :( the light is weird at this time of year and it makes it mighty tough to get a good photo :$ You get the idea though .....such cute little people in Morgans dancing group :D

Ive been creating some new flowers and what better way to have a play than with new colours :D Orange,yellow and green polka dot fabric *drool* far out these colours are bright and fun :) Im especially loving the green :D Im listing them in the shop today if you want to get some to play with :D


We have a disaster happening at the moment.....a stinky,blocked pipe kind of disaster :( The council came out today and checked it and the pipes are blocked with tree roots :( the good news is that its on council land so they will be paying to fix it , the bad news is that the previous owner built our garden shed on top of the mains they will need to dig up to replace argh......just when I got the grass to grow and had the yard looking half decent *sigh* ah well im sure there will be photos of the work to scrap lol
The list for the Wicked Princesses retreat is full :O Im trying to get a few more spots made available ....emphasis on the word "trying" so if youd like to come and arent on the list please let me know so I can see if I can help you out and make it possible for you to come :)
Okies better go :)
Thanks for visiting :)

Butterfly kisses

I had another play with the "All a fllutter" kit on sale now @ Wicked Princesses and made this LO :) I gave Morgan a butterfly kiss (you know when you blink on someones cheek and your eyelashes tickle?) anywhoo Morgan thought it was hilarious so I thought it'd make a good title to match these butterlfly papers :) Im loving the nice bright colours in these My Little Shoebox papers :)


I added a hand dyed doiley too :D


I {{heart}} these websters alphas!Im a wee bit addicted to that font lol
Im christening my slow cooker today :D Since this morning it has been simmering away and the smells where driving me crazy while I was cleaning the house lol Yummo beef stroganoff for our dinner tonight :D Double yay only one pot to clean lol
