This weeks Noteworthy Challenge

This is my sample card for this weeks Noteworthy challenge at SCRAPZ. This weeks challenge is to get creative with your craft knife and create a card with a cut out pattern. I have used the gorgeous Pink Paislee Queen Bee collection again for this one.

I got some of the new Pink Paislee Queen Bee collection from SCRAPZ and it is so lovely. The photos just don't do it justice. I have used the Paper pad and cutouts for this set of cards.

We will be doing two layouts and a card using the new Fancy Pants 'Family' range.

Lil' Robots

Over the weekend I had some time to play with the gorgeous new My Minds Eye Lil' Robots collection. I just love MME and this collection is no expection. It is gorgeous, bright and fun and perfect for the little man in your life.

The huge sheet of chipboard made it so easy, to put together a set of cards with all the scraps.

Some more Scrap within Reach

I had the chance to play with some more Scrap within Reach papers, for our latest DT challenge at Addicted to Craft. I got the Paperboy range to work with. You can see the other lovely pages on the Addicted to Craft BLOG


And I just want to say a big thank you to everyone that takes the time to leave a comment. I always love hearing from you.

Blonde no more

Kayla has been wanting to try the 'darker side' for sometime. Here she is with her new look.

I really like it and so does she.

Meet Tiger Lily

Tiger Lily is the latest addition to our family. Kayla has been asking and asking and asking, for a kitten. I have done everything to ignore her and say no. On Thursday she rang me from school, with a sad story about this little kitten that had been left there and they were going to send it to the pound. She begged and pleaded and in a moment of madness I said 'yes' she could bring it home. There were lots of conditions. It is her's and she is totally responsible for it. The kids are all in love with it and have been fighting over her. So far so good, I just hope she continues to behave herself.

And yes Dad it is a CAT!!!! No nasty comments from you ;)

The girls

A just because page, using some gorgeous new goodies from SCRAPZ.

Kayla, Bec and Lizzie at Cape Nelson Easter Saturday.

News in photos

The biggest one dyed her hair and has since dyed it again, even darker. She has been wanting to try the 'darker' side for awhile now. She was sick of being called a dumb blonde.

This boy decided he would rather be behind the camera instead of in front of it
This little lady was very brave and got her ears pierced during the holidays. She is very proud of her new ears

And the littlest one learnt how to tie his shoelaces. These are his new footy boots - which look nothing like this anymore

And a rare photo of the two of us on top of Mount Schank in Mt Gambier. Gosh this was a very hard climb but so worth it. It was amazing.

Why?

It's my turn to do this weeks Fetch at Sketch at SCRAPZ. I used the lovely new Bo Bunny Mama Razzi range.


I thought this paper was perfect for my camera shy boy.

Scrap within Reach Showcase

Angella sent me some new Scrap Within Reach Cambridge Papers, to showcase for the ADDICTED to craft blog. You can see Renee and Angella's work on the BLOG. I really loved working with this range. Perfect for the boys

Time flies when you are having fun

Wow has it been that long????

Hello there, we have been busy having fun!!!

We had 8 visitors come and stay for the last 9 days. Chris's Mum and Dad, Sister and husband, 2 nieces and his cousin and wife. We were out almost everyday. We went to Portland, Cape Bridgewater, Halls Gap, The Grampians, Coonwarrra, Pelona and Mt Gambier.

Unfortunately both the girls came down with the Chicken Pox on Friday, so that stopped our traveling. The boys haven't got it YET!!!

The boys went back to school yesterday, the girls will be home for another few days. Our house is slowly returning to normal.

And I will leave you with last weeks Scrapz.Biz challenge
