Yummy Scraplift

I fell inlove with this page layout when I saw it in issue 4 of the Kaisercraft free mag so I just HAD to scraplift it. It is using the Kaiser Sorbet papers (that you can buy from our shop...plug, plug) I did try ringing Kaiser to see who made the original layout to give credit but she could only tell me that it was one of the design team. The photos are from Ashlee's 1st birthday..and I'd just like to say that as of last night Ashlee's photos are now up to date!!! YAY!!

Scrapping Friends

This layout is about the Stringers..our pastors and close friends. It was for my VIP album but have decided not to go ahead with it and have just converted this double into a 12x12 double instead.

I haven't done much scrapping lately as I have been busy getting the shop website up and running. We have got quite a bit of stock onto it now so it shouldn't be long now until it is open! YAY!

I have done another layout too using the new Kaiser range, but Murray is yet to journal on it.
Happy Scrapping!

I have Fallen in Love!

Just gotta say that I have fallen inlove with Kaiser papers! I spent the day pricing and uploading the full range of papers to our shop computer and must say that they would have to be my favourite range at the moment. So...next time I go to work I will be stocking up..lol.
Our shop website should be up in the next week. We haven't finished uploading products but will steadily do that while we are online. Very exciting times....
The winner has been announced over at Masculine Layouts for the Januray comp....the February comp will be released tomorrow.
I haven't scrapped much lately, but will soon because I need to get my classes made for the 2 retreats in March.
Til next time
Happy Scrappin'

Argh!

This layout is about the things that make me cross! I think it is important to scrap all aspects of my life, not just the positive things, so this layout lists ten things that make me "Argh!". This is a free digital kit by Rhonna Farrer from 2 peas...you can find it HERE.

Freddo Cake Tradition

Breezy just HAS to have a Freddo Icecream Cake every year. I've scrapped it digitally because I am waiting to see how many years she has one before I do it in paper....hope that isn't too long.


This kit is by Isabelle Cyr.

One Little Word for 2008

As a lot of you would already know, in the scrapbooking industry there is a bit of a craze going around that started by Ali Edwards about 'One Little Word'. Instead of making a list of New Years resolutions, you pick one word that encompasses what you want to achieve personally for the year. Mine is Transform. I want this year to be a year that I am transformed even more as a Christian. I want to grow closer to God by reading His Word and spending more time with him...daily.
I also want to transform my priorities...to live every day the way God wants me to and not to waste time on things that aren't important...to put things in the right order..iykwim.
So here is my layout about it.

My semi-word is Praise. I want to praise my children more, encourage others more and Praise my Lord more for the things He is doing in my life.

First Layout for the Year

I did this layout while at a scrap arvo/night with Lissa and Karen....we were scrapping for about 5 hours and this layout is all I got done...don't you hate those nights!

Here is round 5 for the Scrap of Faith circle journal I am participating in. It is for Gennie's album.

More holiday layouts....

I was able to do 4 more layouts last night. There's not much to do in an imaculate house you are house sitting and the kids are in bed....so scrapping it was!

This first layout is of when Bree was born (nearly 7 years ago). It is for Ashlee's album. i'm definitely going to buy more MM note worthy papers.
These photos are of my brother-in-law competing in the Busselton half iron man in May. We were holidaying there for our 11th anniversary and they happened to be there at the same time.
This is Ashlee at 7 months old. It's been good to finally start to wade through all my old photos. I don't know what I'll do when i do catch up and have no photos to scrap though!

And this is a photo I took when we were living at the farm in 2005. It was a foggy morning. I just love this photo.
