Weekend

We have had the laziest weekend ever I think! Apart from a few hours of work yesterday morning, getting haircuts for all three boys yesterday and grocery shopping, we have done absolutely NOTHING! Unashamedly lazy....unashamedly boring...unashamedly quiet. Should be more of it!

I've done a layout using the new Buzz and Bloom chipboard! For those of you who didn't know, Buzz and Bloom have begun laser cutting their own chipboard and I must say, its absolutely beautiful! Remember to ask your retailer to get hold of it!

I've been super slack in the blogger department too! I've actually been exceptionally busy with scrapping and busily preparing my kits for the 2007 Australasian Scrapbook & Papercraft Convention for the June long weekend. I am soooo excited about it and sooooo nervous about!

Remember, if you are coming in to the Convention, PLEASE stop by to the Scrapapple stand and introduce yourself as I'd love to meet all my scrappin' buddies. I'll be the shell-shocked looking one who is shaking in the class lol!

EDITED TO ADD: OMG I just read thru this and I must say it sounds like a walking talking advertisement lol!!! I'm truly sorry about this!! Sometimes I guess just too many things happen at the same time!

More Grunge......

I'm so in love with the Creative Imaginations Intentions line that I just had to do more "grunge".

If you are having trouble getting hold of the papers, you can get them from Ocean 2 Outback Scrapbooking - now the sole distributors of CI for Australia.

Had the gorgeous MarniT and her husband down from Mackay last weekend and we had a blast - it was so great catching up - miss you heaps girl!

Intentions

Don't you just love doing a "grunge" layout every now and then? I adore it - getting the inks out, the hammer out and all the other dirty stuff!

Here's one using the new Marah Johnson Intentions range from Creative Imaginations. Its out in Australian NOW! Let me know if you have problems getting it!!!!

Needle Felting

I had a play with needle felting the other day and came up with this little bunny.

Might have to get back to doing some scrapping soon - my mojo's on holidays (again) so I haven't scrapped in a while!

Australasian Scrapbook & Papercraft Convention

Wowsers! I am lucky enough to have been asked to teach at the 2007 Australasian Scrapbook & Papercraft Convention which is at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, South Bank, Brisbane from June 9 to June 11, 2007.

Here's a sneaky peak at my class which will be focusing on ribbon and a few "different" ways to use it.

I'm really nervous about the whole affair, but am so excited at the same time.

Some times I really have to pinch myself to believe what an amazing journey this scrapbooking road has been for me. To think that 18months ago I didn't even know what scrapbooking was AND I had no idea that I could take a fairly decent photo with a camera!

If you can make it to Brisbane over the June long weekend, I'd love to see you there! You can make booking online at http://www.scrapbookexpo.com.au/.

Some exciting news....

I have been lucky enough to have been contacted by Cheryl Mezzetti, the Design Team Co-Ordinator for Creative Imaginations, to do all the Creative Imaginations work for Australia! Wowsers!

I will be working with Jane from Ocean2Outback, the wholesalers who supply CI to Australia and doing all their DT work!

Very exciting for me and I'm looking forward to getting stuck into it!

Here's a gorgeous set I've done for Mother's Day.
