Some more Layouts that I have been doing!!

Just some layouts that I have been doing for me! I had a ball playing with the lace cardstock and doing a pink layout was great fun. I have added some "detail photos" The photos really do miss out the detail and I had fun adding little special touches to them.

The journaling at the top of the photos reads- you put your buzz costume on climbed onto the swing and shouted as loud as you could.......... "To Infinity and Beyond"

Hi,
As promised I have put my "beach holiday" scalloped mini album photos up. I couldn't get the pages to upload on scrapbook city because of the unusual size so here they are. To create this abum I have used all kaisercraft products. The reminiscing paper range is gorgeous, the papers flowers, wooden album, wood flourish ( i actually used the really curly one and broke it in half to make it a more elongated flourish.)
Follow the links for the products I have used.

Hi all, thanks for your comments I am glad to be back blogging, it is all part of my attempt to be more organised this year..... we'll see how that!! I just goes!!!

The one of the 4 of us was taken at the top of double island point just beside the lighthouse, it is a self taken one (using the timer and sitting the camera on a rock) and I love it, it is so rare to have a photo of the 4 of us!!

anyway have to go will add some more pics tomorrow!

Family News

We had a lovely christmas and new year and had an awesome holiday away to Rainbow Beach, the majority of the time the weather was nice but I was glad that we came home when we did, it has been a bit crazy up that way!! This was our first "propper" family holiday since Ethan was born as Brad is away so frequently that it is hard to fit it in but boy am I glad we did!!! We did lots of relaxing, swimming, and beach driving, walking and exploring, we fed wild dolphins at Tin Can Bay, walk 3 k up and I mean UP to the double island point lighthouse (a big ask for a 3 year old and a 6 year oldbut they did it and we were so proud of them) collected shells, went to the Carlo Sand blow and had a picnic on the beach. On the way home we went ot Australia Zoo, we had a great day, that is a fabulous place and the kids had a ball. Steady Eddie and Tripod played in the Crocoseum as part of the Zoos summer celebrations and they were awesome. I have heaps of new photos to scrap of our holiday but they are on the laptop so I can't share them yet will do on a layout at a later date though!!!

MY absolutley beautiful friend Nikki came home for a week at the end of november to catch up with her family and friends and as an early celebration for her 30th (that is actually on Monday the 7th of Jan- Happy birthday Babe!! ) it was so amazing to see her, she looks amazing and is just a beautiful person. I am sooooo lucky to have her as my friend. Jasmien and Ethan got to see her to and they both just adore her (particularly Jazzy!!) It was lovely to catch up with everyone.

A friend from school got married on the last weekend of november and that was great. she looked beautiful and it was a lovely wedding. (the hens night at the coast was great too! we did a pole dancing class and it was fabulous!!!)

I have just realised the time so I had better head off to bed now. Happy new year to you and I hope 2008 is the best one yet!!! I have put all the leave you of my latest creations (when I say latest since october 2007LOL!!!) at the top of the post for you to see!!! and I will be back sooner next time I promise.

cya!!!
