A few layouts :-)

Happy Easter everyone!!!  Hope you had a terrific day.  I worked from midnight till 8am... then picked up my mother in-law for a feast of bacon and eggs!  Then of course we did the easter egg hunt!!!  The boys loved it and were sooo good with their 'sharing bucket'.  The boys then headed back to Nanny's so I could get a little sleep.  Alas, I did not sleep.  Instead I finished off a page I started last night.  Here it is...

Pretty basic, but I'm good at basic lol.  I've used some of my bits and pieces I got from Pretty Little Studio as well as some Prima flowers and the chipboard mushrooms are from Stuff 2 Scrap.

Thought while I was here I would also share another couple of layouts I finished a while ago.  In March I was lucky enough to be chosen as the featured member at Scrapboxx.  I was so excited (I actually can't believe I forgot to blog about it until now)!  Anyways, as the featured member I was sent the March Boxx of Scraps to play with.  Here is the main layout for this...

I also got productive and did this layout...

And just to finish it off, a card...

I also got a few goodies so I could have a go at the April Sketch which was featured in the newsletter!  Here is the sketch...

Here is my take...

Well that's just about it from me.  Yesterday I finally finished a couple of layouts that I've had on the go for a while... but I might save them for another day :-)  I'm just a little tired so I'm off to bed.  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you had a lovely Easter xoxox

Mad for Markers Monthly Challenge

Good morning all!  Just a really quick post before I head off to kinder for kinder duty.  I coloured this image in last week and I thought it would be a perfect image for a 'cheer me up' card.  One of my friends is having a bit of a rough time atm (massive understatement), so I thought I would make this card for her.  I really hate it that there is really nothing I can do or say... but I just want to let her know that I am here if she needs me.

I'm going to enter it into the Mad for Markers monthly challenge (use YR, BG and RV).  If you want to see what the challenge is all about or enter a card yourself head over here.  Well that's all from me for now... really have to get moving :-)  Thanks for stopping by and hope your having a beautiful day xoxox

Happy Birthday Maddison!

Hiya!  On Wednesday my beautiful niece turns 6!  She's such a beautiful, caring and thoughtful little girl so I just had to make her a pretty card.  I've used a digital stamp from Karen's Doodles.  Here it is...

Now I just have to go shopping to find her a gift.  My Mum (aka Grandma) has bought her a fish tank, so I'm hoping to find her some nice ornaments to go in the bottom of it :-) 

Speaking of birthdays... I just had my birthday last week (the big 3 - 0). I had a lovely few days. My actual birthday was fairly quiet. But I did get some flowers and drawings from my little boy when I picked him up from kinder (probably the sweetest thing that happened all day). On Friday I underwent a little bit of retail therapy with friends. We went to Paperific in Melbourne where I spent WAY too much money on Copics and chipboard. Then on Saturday I had a lovely lunch at the local pub with family, including an OH so delicious coffee and walnut cake... yummo! I'm one very lucky lady to have such beautiful friends and family!!! Anyways, there is a point to my ramblings... when we went for lunch on Saturday my two beautiful nieces, Maddison and Maya, gave me a little love heart book with all beautiful pictures they had drawn all by themselves. I won't show them all, but This one is from Maddison...

On the left is the Earth and planets.  She's drawn arrows so I know that the earth spins and has written 'I am' and then an arrow to show Australia (as she didn't know how to write 'Australian').  On the right side is a cow saying moo and also a bird with a comb like a hen, stripes like a tiger and a tail like a beaver.  OH MY GOODNESS!!!  I can you believe these pictures and the thought that went in to them came from one little nearly 6 year old.  She's one SUPER li'l girl!!!  Anyways, thanks for popping by and hope you are enjoying your day xoxox
