So far...

I have scrapped 4 of my wedding photo's.. all in the last 24 hours!

It's been about a month since I last scrapped, and I missed it,

way more than I thought I would....

I'm pretty happy with the layouts I managed.

This one is my fave, and so far the only one I have shown.

March Quote Challenge....

 At SCRAPBOOK SAVVY...

Yeah, it's been up for a while now, seeing as you only have NINE DAYS to get your entries in, but hey, I've had a busy month lol...

I chose this quote, which I found on Pinterest...

and created this layout from it!! I have used not only the quote as inspiration, but the actual image itself as well... How do YOU interperet it??

Would love to see some of you have a go at it!!

The winner, who will be selected by me, will win a voucher to spend in the SCRAPBOOK SAVVY store!

jan 2012

 I have started again, with the 5 people 12 times 'challenge'.... 

Last year I failed in FEB!! This year I hope to get the whole year done..

This is my layout using January's photo, which I'm pretty sure I haven't actually put on here.

His first day

 Is finally here!!!

He has been SO excited about preschool {playschool as he calls it}

He pulled his hat and his shirt out earlier this week, 

and has been wearing them both, on and off throughout the week.

The kids had their swimming carnival this morning as well, 

so the morning routine was a little off, but we got there on time and he was so happy!

He went and played, and gave me a kiss and told me he loves me when I left.

No tears from either of us!

Hope he has a fantastic day ♥♥♥

These are a couple of my faves, i'm hoping to get a few packs of these hearts ♥♥

They will go great on some upcoming layouts :D

Sometimes...

When you have a bad day/moment, you just need to look at something like this, and remember you are the lucky one, and forget the person that made you feel the way you did because you can't help the fact that they are miserable and always will be because that is how THEY have shaped their life.

*** PEOPLE ARE JUST AS HAPPY AS THEY MAKE UP THEIR MINDS TO BE ***

cheers to a New Year!

It feels like I done this page forever ago now..

It's for this months group 2 challenge over at Show us your stuff!!

the challenge is to use this quote: Cheers to a new year, and another chance for us to get it right.

I done my page about our family photo's. Last year I intended to do Project 5 people, 12 times, but I failed miserably. This year I hope to get it right!

This would definately be one of my faves from 2011, I just love it ♥

Featured on my page is a gorgeous heart by Charms Creations... I will definately be getting more of these!

Memories...

Do you have a WORD for 2012??

I have decided that my word is

 

 

Memories

We will make them!

 

 

This year I am doing a 52 week album.... MY way!

I have brought a SMASH journal, and I have started! 

Week ONE is done, it is simple, it is messy, but it is there, the MEMORY... forever!

I am also doing Project 365 {+1}

I have downloaded the app onto my iphone, I am up to day 13 and going strong.

All pics {bah one} have been taken using my iPhone so far.

The Memories are there, and I am loving it ♥ 

I havent yet decided if I will be sharing my 52 week album online or not, but this is a little sneaky of the 'front page'... This page was the decider for my 'word'

I have been...

Creative..

No scrapping, but a little bit of craft. Can you guess what this stuff is for?? Finally got myself a pink smash book, can't wait to get started on it <3

must be love..

January is always crazy busy around here, with school holidays etc, and this is so far the only layout I have managed. It's fairly simple, not sure if I love it.. MOJO isn't really flowing at the moment.

This was my latest Purple Pumpkin post... I'm being lazy so if you want to read about it go HERE

We are having roast lamb for dinner here tonight, it's been a long long long time since we had one!! It's almost ready and smells oh so good. Jeddie will miss out as he is still at Farm Poppy and Auni's place, 3rd night tonight!!

New years camping..

 This year over New Years we went camping at Blowering Dam with Matt and Karen..

I didn't take a lot of photo's, which makes the ones I did take even better lol.

 I have uploaded them at a very small size as I am sick of waiting an hour for my photo's to upload, and then having them dissapear when I try to add them here, so they are probably crappy quality, but rest assured they are awesome IRL... hahahaha.

 We spent 2 nights over there, and it was HOT... So HOT. We had a great time, but in reality I couldn't wait to get home and out of that sticky heat!! We arrived home with not even a spot of sunburn too!! 

So just a few piccies... I took more on my iphone, but will just show these :)

Little Zayney, with his funky hat!

 The view of the dam where we went swimming... Well some swam, some walked, some played lol

The 5 kids, my 3 and Karen's 2. I actually really love this pic!

James and Zayne... little turds, oh I mean angels haha

and again, they spent a lot of time 'racing'.

and again lol....

That's all!!

A new year!!

I was going to do a top 10 of 2011 layouts post, but so far I just haven't had a chance. I did try the other day but blogger just deleted all my pics instead of loading them :( so I gave up.. Hopefully this week I will get a chance though!

Today I have some first of the month shares..

First up is for the new sketch at Purple Pumpkin.. This is the 2nd page I created for this sketch, it's not often I will re-do a page, but I really hated the first one. Love this one though, so all is good!

This one is my monthly challenge at Scrapbook Savvy.. Same pics as the PP page, and not the last time you will see them either lol. Visit the forum for more details :)

Last one is the January 1st sketch at STUCK?!

So over the past few days I have seen on Facebook so many people say good riddance to 2011. Now I have in no way had a fab year after losing a loved one in February, but I can truly say besides that I have had a good year. I am happy, my family is happy, we are all in good health and we have a roof over our heads and food on our table every night. We have hard times and sad times like everyone else, but I choose to celebrate the happy times rather than dwell on the bad or sad. So tonight I will say goodbye 2011, thanks for the good times and welcome 2012, looking forward to the life, happy times and whatever else you may bring. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!! See you on the flip side :)

Today is..

 Cyber crop day at Scrapbook Savvy!!

This is my my challenge page, you can find details HERE...

and this is my latest blog page for Purple Pumpkin!!

I am finally caught up with all my CT and DT pages for the month!
