A little bit of this and that!

Create....

So I have missed a few of the words over at One Little Word. But I have decided to make sure I get back in and do the words. This weeks word is "blessed".
A layout that celebrates how blessed I am to have these 3 in my life. I know that I have done a similar layout before even using the same photo but I guess it goes to show how much these guys mean to me.
Scenic Route PP, MM noteworthy and AC thickers.

Scrapping Clearly....

Very excited as Scrapping Clearly will be at the first ever Scrapbooking Industry Australia Trade show to be held at the Sydney States Sports Centre on 8th and 9th April. It is great to see an event showcasing Australian products and designers. Kylie has been working hard on designing the booth and getting all the products together. Alison will be there doing Make and Takes at the booth and Jen has designed a fab class that she will be teaching. I get to help out in the class which will be lots of fun. So if you are coming to the event be sure to stop by and say hi.
The design team has been working hard on albums to display at the event. We were all also give a piece of acrylic to do a layout with our name and photo on it. These will be on display at the event of all the DT girls.
Here is my little layout. I must admit these things are hard to photograph! So I put a piece of white cardstock behind the frame and scanned it. But you get the general idea. Scrapping Clearly acrylic, Hambly transparency, HS tape, chipboard corners and heart and AC thickers.

Create....

Well besides watching the fabulous movie mentioned in my previous post I have done a little creating today. One layout I can not share just yet but will be able to in a few days. The other layout.... well my printer has all but died on me so that one is not finished either!! (GRRRR I think the Print Head is buggered on my printer... which I think means a new one... probably cheaper to just buy a new printer)
So enough of that grumbling here is the layout that I finished today. Another simple layout using a 8x10 photo. This one is of Jack and I took it a couple of years ago. I just love it. Bazzill cardstock, HS tape, 7 gypsies tag and AC letters.

August Rush....

If you watch no other movie this year make sure you watch August Rush. I watched it today and it is one of the most amazing movies. I had the big ole ugly cry happening especially right at the end.

Designer Garden....

Well the days just keep getting away from me. I missed the mid month Garden again! LOL. So better late then never.
Some favourites include:

* Alaska Album - Sande - always love seeing new mini albums.

* Housewives In Training - Shannon - such a fun layout and love the colours.

* Baby Belly - Jennifer - the colours in this layout are just divine. Great mix of elements too.

* Felt Album Cover - Em - cute as!

Hope you can find a little inspiration too in the Garden.

Have been so busy the last few weeks that I feel like I haven't created in ages. And yeah I guess I haven't. My plan is to try and get something created this weekend. Fingers crossed.

CMC ROCKS THE SNOWYS....

Just had to share this with you today. Came across this video on You Tube with a little bit of a story that Storme did on CMC Rocks the Snowys. If you check out the video at about 4.02 you will see Andrew and I on camera! Totally cool. Georgie is to the right of me and they pan past her really quickly.

Easter....

Well we have had a fabulous few days. We headed to Canberra on Friday to spend Easter with Nanny Jan and Norm. Also got to catch up with Cameron, Gary, Sonja and Martin who also came to visit for the weekend too. Friday and Saturday we didn't do too much... considering also that the weather was crappy! Sunday though the weather was just gorgeous. Perfect for an outdoor lunch. Norm has made a woodfire pizza oven from scratch and we got to try it out. So most of yesterday was spent mooching around in the backyard constructing pizzas out of all sorts of yummy ingredients! I don't know which one was my favourite. (Although we did have some prawns left over and put them in garlic and then cooked them in the oven. Oh my that was divine!)
So that was my Easter in a nutshell. Hope you had a fab one too!

Happy Easter....

Going to take some time out over the next few days to chill with family. It's Easter! Wow.... that came just way too quickly this year. Wishing you all a fantastic Easter. Enjoy spending time with family and friends.
Catch you all in a few days. xoxo

Easter Hat Parade....

Well Easter certainly has snuck up on me just a bit too quickly this year. We got back from our trip on Sunday only to realise about 8.30pm Sunday night that Wednesday was Easter Hat Parade day at school! I had totally forgotten. So Monday at lunchtime I ducked outta work and did a quick hunt for something to make it out of. Well it was a very rushed job but Jack loved it! The Easter hat parade is always fun to go and watch. (This is the last year that Jack has to do it. Will kinda miss it next year) Lots of cute creations and lots of over the top creations! LOL.
Here a just a few snippets from today.

Happy Mail and some tags....

Well I came home to some happy mail after being away with a little Scrapbook Birdie that sent me a little package of Reeses Peanut butter cups. The only thing is I have absolutely no idea who it was.... well I think I might know but not exactly sure. So come on fess up who was it??? LOL. Thanks heaps you know me way too well.

I was tagged by both Mandi and Kim.

Here's what I have to do:
* Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
* Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
* Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

I have done this one a few times so not exactly sure which ones I have shared before and which ones may be new.

1. I sleep on the left side of the bed except when we go away somewhere. Normally then I end up on the right side of the bed. Not sure why just turns out that way. LOL
2. When I was 8 I won the three legged race at school. So totally worth it considering I beat Michelle Valentine at it! LOL
3. I hate to cook too! Try to avoid it as much as possible.
4. I still have some of the wrappers from the first box of chocolates that Andrew bought me.
5. I hate pumpkin! YUKKO!!! Makes me gag even thinking about it.
6. I am a HORROR movie freak! The scarier the better.
7. I have flat feet and 2 ankles on each foot (ok so maybe this is too much information! LOL)

Now I tag. Alette, Bec, Jodene, Jody, Maria, Pip and Wendy.
