Wanna Tissue?...................

And the last page for the month is for Scrap The Boys...................




I crashed a retreat.........

Wow! What a weekend I have had!!!!

On Saturday I crashed a retreat for the day and met so many lovely girls. I got to see Marelle and Eb again and I finally got to meet this gorgeous funny girl......................

I arrived about 11am and had plans on leaving about 10pm, BUT I left about 1.30am!!!!
AND I scrapped!!! 4 and 1/2 layouts!!! Quite surprising for me. So this day was really productive.
There were laughter and tears, lots of new ideas, new techniques seen and lots of inspiration was just oozing around the room. All the girls were just lovely and made me feel so welcome. Thanks Mal for squeezing me in for the day!!

 Here is the first page I did there called 'The Crew' using Echo Park.....................


And this one 'Gramma' was from a sketch at the retreat using Authentique & Studio Calico........................


'Ultimate Slalom Spray' was a blind scrap and I used a mix of a Polly Scrap kit which I loved.................



And when I got home I was so inspired by what I'd done and being around all those very talented women that I kept creating.
This one is for Scrap The Girls for April.................................


When I got home at around 2am, Montana was crying and running a temp of 41.3, while hubby was snoring. So thankfully I got home when I did. But I ended up sitting up until 4.45am waiting for her temp to come down.

So a very exhausting weekend, but oh so worth it!!!!

I am definitely going next year!!

Scrap Elegance May Sale

Well the Scrap Elegance Sale is on again in May and I was so lucky to work with some of the products that Tenisha has in the sale.

Here I have used the gorgeous denim owl button for this page called 'Hanging Around.'

And this one is a pink spotty button used here on my 'Girly?Not' page.

So pop on over and see what other products Scrap Elegance has up for sale and pop back in for the Sale in May.

Scrap Elegance pages............

I've been a bit quiet lately haven't I?
I cannot believe things are so full on at the moment, that I haven't had time to blog!!
I haven't scrapped for about 4 weeks which I have really missed. But with Easter in the middle there, we were away for a week and plus the school holidays AND I re rolled my ankle which in turn has done no favours for my back!!! Argh!

AND I've been teaching classes!!! Last week was fun with a girlfriend and 2 regulars of my classes.

My back is still not pain free which has made it hard to sit for too long to scrap. But I have managed 1 layout last night and 1 layout this morning for Scrap Elegance for the next sale.

I hadn't posted these ones yet for the March sale for Scrap Elegance so I thought I'd pop them up before the next sale and my next samples.

The vinyl and doily fan is from Scrap Elegance and the gorgeous buttons and metal leaves.

The gorgeous mouse button is from Scrap Elegance.


Shame the misting didn't work all that well on the 'my lil squeaker' page and it was meant to be an orange colour. It looks brown here.


Hopefully I can sit back down again today and do some more pages as I have the house to myself and Montana. The boys have gone up to the holiday house to wire it all up for lights and power points ready to plaster next week. 

Have a great weekend!!
