All Inspired :D

I was getting my photos ready for the retreat and got all inspired and just HAD to do a layout.

This new house has great light for scrapping...all inspired now :)

Love these Prima papers..they are so easy to slap a layout together!

Wave Rock Retreat is approaching :)

As you may have heard, our family is moving back to Esperance on the 24th of this month :) I made myself a rule that I wasn't allowed to start packing until I had done my retreat class layouts. I have finally finished and today have collected a heap of boxes from Kondinin so I can start packing...woohoo!

This retreat I am teaching 2 classes. The first one is called 'Pinwheels and Buntings' and is a single layout. Here are my sneak peaks...
Boy version...


Girl Version...


And my second class is a double layout and includes up to 15 wallet sized photos and a pocket for memorabilia. The themes are Travel and The Zoo, but you can use any photos using this photo placement. I might do a birthday one too if I get time in the move.

Travel Version...


Karen and Lis have put more sneak peaks on their blogs. I am so looking forward to this retreat and to sit a scrap and see everyone again as I missed out on the last one.

Perth Zoo

We headed to Perth on the 12th of July to the zoo with the cousins. It was raining and cold but we had such a great time seeing all the different animals. Today its cold and miserable so I have been sitting at the computer chillaxing and created this digital layout about our trip. I will do it in paper as well..probably at the next Scrappin' Outback retreat which is from the 22-24th of October :D I am tutoring this time which I am really looking forward to as I missed the last one (more details on the retreat soon)

July Sketch Challenge

I finished Ingeborg's July Sketch Challenge just in the nick of time :)
It is about how we love to go to my sister's farm on our holidays to relax but also for adventure :)


Here is the pagemaps sketch she challenged us with...

Curls...

The girls and I had a big birthday card making day last week and I got inspired to make a layout when I saw these papers and diecuts. I have had them for about 18 months now :S About time I used them!

Hey Birdie!

Murray took the girls camping on the weekend and didn't get any sleep so when he came home last night he went to be at 7pm...so I stayed up and scrapped :)

When I saw this range of papers by Kaiser I fell in love...so cute!! They are called 'Hey Birdie' and all I used to create this layout was 3 pieces of the patterned paper, a piece of kraft cardstock and some alphas. This layout was scraplifted from the May Kaiser workshop magazine...

June Sketch Challenge

Ingeborg released her June Sketch challenge from PageMaps today and I couldn't help myself and did it straight away :) I tipped mine on it's side cause I didn't have landscape photos to suit it.


This is Bree just before her school disco last week..she looked so cute with her curled hair.
