TSE Newsletter Projects.

Well I can finally share what I had been working on for TSE.
I got to work with Carolee Creation's Gone Fishing papers. They are beautiful outdoorsy type papers, perfect for camping, beach and Fishing photos. Let me tell you I had a great challenge (I loved the challenge too though!) using these papers but am quite pleased with the finished results. The left over scraps were perfect for men's cards and just in the nick of time for Father's Day on Sunday.

Well that is about it for me at the moment nothing else much has happened creatively around here. Thanks for popping in and all of your comments. Take care until next time!

Look at these new yummies from Prima.

Prima are having a little giveaway. Here is where to go and what you have to do. Prima
They are all just too yummy to decide from so I think I may just have to get them all! LOL!!! Well I don't really have anything creative that I can share at the minute as what I am working on is for TSE and can't share until probably next week.
Well that's it for me at the moment take care and thanks for popping in!!

My very first TSE Cybercrop Challenge

It is that time again over at The Scrapbook Establishment, my favourite time Cybercropping time! This month it is the theme 'Seasons" and I was lucky enough to be able to set one of the challenges for a Layout. So here is the criteria I came up with for my challenge.

1. Spring Things - I want to see spring things on your layouts like trees, flowers, birds, butterflies, animals, anything that is springy!

2. Bright Colours - I want to see lots of bright colours used.

3. Cutting out - by this I mean cutting out elements from patterned papers such as flowers, flourishes, leaves, anything you wish to cut out from your papers to add to your layout. ( If you look at the leaves on my challenge example you will know what I mean by this)

4. Handmade Embellishments - I want to see embellishments that you have made on your layouts rather than the already bought made ones!

Ok so this my Layout I did as an example of my challenge. Yes the photos are a little old they were taken nearly a year ago, but just too cute not to scrap.

Well if you would like to take part in my challenge or the other two challenges that have been set by the fabulous Tanya and Ngaire then head on over to TSE. You have until midnight Saturday 22nd August to have your work uploaded into the gallery. Hope to see you there we always love to see new people around the forum. Can't wait to see what you all come up with.

Thanks for looking and all the comments. Take Care and See you all next time.

My Secret is Out Now!!

I have been asked to be on the Design Team for The Scrapbook Establishmenthttp://www.thescrapbookestablishment.com.au/store/index.php and of course I accepted ,I am both honoured and over the moon about this news I really still can't believe it.
Sadly though the Fantastic Ruthy Clarke has left the Design Team due to other commitments, she will be sadly missed from the team. Her work is truly beautiful and inspirational too you can check out her work here http://ruthclarke.typepad.com/weblog/ Definitely worth taking a look at her blog I know I do all the time!
Well that was my secret and I don't have anything to share at the moment I have been really slack and have had no urge to do anything not even Scrapbboking. Hopefully it passes really soon.
Anyway Thanks for popping in and all your comments.
Take Care.

Sorry about the tease but I am very excited and had to let a little bit of the secret out!
Keep tuned and all will be revealed soon.
Thanks for popping in and Take Care.

A few pages to share

A few pages to share. I have decided to do Beth's little challenge of creating 20 pages before I get tempted to buy any of the new stuff. So here is 2 pages to start my little challenge off.

Photo's from our Hong Kong Trip of course. A few of the photo's have jumped at me straight away and I had to scrap them. I am back to a little creative block again at the minute. Hopefully it passes in the next few days.

Page 1/20. The star ferry at Hong Kong I just had to scrap this photo of Lily that I took on the star ferry. It is just a gorgeous photo definitely one of my favourites taken.

Page 2/20. I got a new camera overseas and I was playing around with the rapid fire and naturally as soon as I saw these photo's I had to get them printed straight away so that I could have a play around. There is 12 photo's in total that I cut Lily out of and stuck on top of each other in there correct sequence. I love the finished result.

Well that's about it for the moment. Depending on the mind block as to when I will have more to share. But for now Thanks for looking and all your comments I love to hear from you all.

See you later and Take care.

Finally some Holiday photo's to share!!!

Well Hello to everyone! I am Back from oversea's and I finally have some photo's to share for you all to look at. I did try my hardest while overseas to update the blog but couldn't access a usb port on any of the computers to download the photo's so this is why you have had to wait until I got back home to do it. Well here are a few out of my 3000 photo's that I took in the 3 weeks that we were away, I hope you enjoy. The trip was great we all had a ball and were amazed by alot of the places that we went to and all of the history behind these places is very inspiring. My highlight was definitely the Great Wall of China it just goes on forever up and down the mountains as far as you can see. All of it I of course loved.

Well I will stop jibbering on and get onto the photo's. Here we go.

Us at dineyland Hong Kong in Minnie's House.

Lily in the Forbidden City.I love this photo I acn't wait to have a little play around with the editing.

Well thanks everyone for taking the time to share these photo's and of course I don't have anything scrappy to share at the minute where I have been away but hopefully soon I will.

Thanks for looking and Take Care.
