Don't You Love It When ...

You completely surprise someone sooooo much, that they cry tears of joy! That is what happened to my mum last weekend when she got picked up by my dad, my brother, my niece and nephew. She had no idea that they were coming and was completely bowled over. "Why the surprise visit?" I hear you say. A certain mother just turned 60 and had an awesome weekend celebrating with family and friends. Happy birthday mum! I hope you enjoyed every moment of your 60th!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

OMG where did this year go? Can you believe it is already December!! This means that it is getting towards the pointy end of the year and it is a very busy time. Still there is always time for scrapping and here are two layouts that I have recently completed:

I have decided to set up a new monthly challenge blog - Just 4 Fun! It is exactly what the name says ... Just 4 Fun. There will be challenges to complete during the month for fun. There are no sponsors or prizes but lots of fun and inspiration!

Retreating is So Much Fun!

Last weekend, I attended the Heirloom Scrapbooking retreat. It was a great weekend of scrapping, laughs, competitions and all round fun. I have created a little slideshow to show you what I was busy creating at the retreat. Also included is my entries for the Chookscraps October Cybercrop.

A Self Proclaimed Scrapping Diet

After spending a couple of days cleaning up my scraproom and putting stuff away from the Retreat, I have now decided that it is time for me to go on a scrap diet - no scrapbook supply shopping until I see a significant dint in my stash (it could take a while)!

Here are some layouts that I have completed this week. I decided to start with some Urban Pirarie leftovers (scrap paper and embellishments):





Scrapping Outback 4 Products October Kit - here is a layout that I completed using the 4 Products October Kit. Unfortunately, I inadvertently added rubons, which I thought came with the kit, so it is ineligible for this month's competition.



Got nothing to do this weekend and looking for some creative inspiration. Why not head over to Chookscraps and join in the Crop In!
