Just wanted to share this OTP with you all. Julie from A2Z Scraplets gave me a clock kit and asked me to work my magic. At first I was a little unsure, but once I got started I couldn't put it down. I must say one thing "I am so over fringing circles".
I have given myself the challenge to look outside the square. So this is what I have been doing. I am used to working with "pretty" so when I venture away from that it's a little strange. One thing I have been challenged with over the past few weeks is Vintage. It really isn't me but my god, once you get into the swing of things, it can be very addictive.

I'm a little sad this week. Why, because my eldest daughter finishes school this week and will venture onto Beauty College next year. Were ok with her leaving school in grade 10. If anybody knows her you will know why. She is the type of girl who will really thrive when doing something she really wants to do. She did work experience for two weeks in a beauty school earlier this year, and lets just say she was a different person every afternoon when she got home. She wouldn't shut up, and i say that in a nice way. She was always so excited when she got home and she would sit down with dad and I and go thru every detail of her day and what she learnt and what she was going to do the next day. That's when we knew where she was heading.
Oh and one other thing.....If you live in my local area, you might want to stay of the road from the 6th of December.......she gets her learners permit....hahaha....why do they have to grow up so fast. Why cant they stay in little forever......nah let me re-think that last thought....
Have a great week everybody

Don't we just love Christmas? I just love the look on the girls faces first thing on Christmas morning....but you know there is one thing i don't like....and that's spending lots of time and effort making Christmas cards and giving them to people who don't appreciate them...so over the years i have just stopped giving them, but this year i have decided to do something different. This year i will be giving Christmas tags instead, at least this way they can put them on the tree....well that's the idea anyway....I still want to play with different shapes and ideas but here i my first one...

How good is Pink's new album....I've only been a fan for the past few years & I saw her last time she came and it was a great show, I couldn't believe how quick her tickets sold out for her Brisbane shows, well fingers crossed she puts on a few more otherwise were heading down to Melbourne for the week-end next year.... actually the more i think about that the more i like the idea, we have always wanted to take the girls to Melbourne....mmmm now that has me thinking......

Well this isn't going to well so far. I thought it would be easier to load the pics first, but as you can see my computer skills are going well.
I have a few ladies asking to have a look at my brag book that i taught at the workshop a couple of weeks ago, well here it is... this time i created something close to my heart, my darling husband and my girls. Maybe that's why i enjoyed and found it so easy to put together. sorry i could post all the pages but this should give you a good idea...they have been very popular and are a great gift idea for Christmas.
I feel like i have so many layout to catch you all up on, so with any luck i will share them with you soon....


In the mean time, for those having a punt on the big race....Good Luck....and for those who like myself will probably run out of time because I'm to busy at work (or Scrappin cause I'm behind in my class layouts) to go and put bet on....have a great week....

Till next time, take care....xxx
