Another page made with Lesley's Imbolc Inspiration kit

Was going through some photos on my computer and found these I took at the zoo last year. I thought the mother Gorilla cuddling her baby was a perfect picture to use with this kit, and I had to add the daddy to complete the family, (plus I just love the silverbacks aren't they gorgeous). The whole time we were there, he just sat in the sun watching over his family. The only time he moved was when one of the young gorilla's came over and started annoying him. Sounds like pretty much any other man I know LOL!

Another great Twilight inspired kit

Last week I brought another great Twilight inspired kit and this is a page I created with it. This is was created by Irene Alexeeva. I love her kits and have quite a few, but this one is just awesome and would be loved by any Twilight fans.

Another turn of the wheel

This Sunday sees the Wheel of the year once again turn. Here in the Southern Hemisphere we are moving into Imbolc. Winter is starting to fade and spring awakens bringing with it the emerging seeds we planted long ago.

To make this next turning Lesley from Nutkin Tailz Designs has created a gorgeous new kit called Imbolc Inspirations which will be available for sale from Digital Craft Cottage next week.

Here are a few layouts I created using this beautiful kit.

Yummy Time

As it is still school holidays here, I have been doing alot of cooking for the boys. The other day we decided to make fairy floss and they all just loved it, especially the little ones.

A wonderful achievement

My eldest son loves karate and has recently got back to training after a severe injury to his foot. Prior to that he competed in the NSW State Titles for his style of Karate. For his age division 40+ boys aged 12-14 years took to the mat. They had to get through 5 knockout rounds and a semi-final to reach the final gold medal fight. Daniel made it through and had to fight one of his training partners and good mates in the final for the gold medal. It was an awesome fight, which Daniel narrowly lost, making his runner up in the state and receiver of a silver medal. We were so proud of him. Here is a page I made of his final fight and his medal presentation using Nutkin Tailz just released kit "All About Men".

Finally on sale

Lesley from NutkinTailz Designs 2 kits All About Men and Herbal Grimore are finally available to buy at http://www.digitalcraftcottage.com/lc/. This was fantastic timing for me as I am currently up to the herbal section of the BOS I am currently working on. Here are 2 of the pages I created from her kit for my book.

This was made with a fantastic freebie kit by Nicole Young called The Fairest which you can get here: http://nicoleyoungdesigns.blogspot.com/. I love most of Nicole's work but this one is just awesome.

3 Days to go

Another scrap page I made using Nutkin Tailz Designs up coming kit "All About Men". These are all my boys welcoming their new baby brother Storm on the day he was born. Hard to believe that was over 2 years ago now. Word art on this page is from Natali Designs.

This isn't my page, this is a page created by a wonderful woman and friend of mine Brenda (a.k.a Rons Monkey at various scrap sites). She dedicated this to Sassy from http://sassyscraphaven.blogspot.com/ , Vickie from http://nonnashaven.blogspot.com/,

Lesley from http://nutkintailz.blogspot.com/ and myself. I really loved this page and the thought that went into making it especially at a very sad time for Brenda. Hugs to you.

Its school holidays here and the boys just seem to want to eat ALL day! So I have spent the last 2 days baking. The little 3 really love the fairy biscuits I made, actually the big 2 love them also. This is a scrap I made with the recipe of the fairy biscuits and a pic of Storm licking the icing off the top. I used the Savoury kit from Raspberry Rd and also some elements from Efie's Pots and Pans.

Scraps I made on the 3rd and 4th books in the Twilight Series. I used a combination of kits for these including: Into the Twilight - Flergs, Twilight The Quiletes - Soxsational Scraps

Here are scraps I made of the first 2 books in the Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer. I used a fantastic kit Into the Twilight by Flergs.

As you have probably guess I love the Twilight movie and series of books. I couldn't put them down. I have created a few scrapbook pages based on this theme above is the 1st in a series I will be posting as time permits. Page made with the fantastic Twilight kit by Flergs (I just love this kit)

Since creating this blog I have been asked by a wonderful lady and friend Lesley from NutkinTailz Designs to be part of her ct as she has been asked to become a designer at Digital Craft Cottage. So stay tuned for someone pages created for her wonderful kits.

I spent most of a cold overcast day at a Metro Karate Tournament today. It was my 5 year old son Sean's first tournament and although he didn't win, he put in a great effort and enjoyed himself. We are so proud of him.

This was incorporated into the ritual we did with our 2 older boys on the eve of yule this year.

The page was made using the gorgeous Yelena Yule kit by Nutkintailz Designs.

Also in March, Sean did his first grading and earned is Red belt.

This is Daniel, my eldest receiving his Brown belt from his last grading in March 2009

Welcome and hello

This is a first for me so I'm still learning what I am doing which may take a while. My background and header was created using various kits by Flergs, so thank you to her for making such gorgeous creations.
