holidays are here again

hi all

well i dont know whether to laugh or cry. school holidays are here and at present i have 3 boys home driving me absolutely nuts. i love having them around me i just wish they would behave even if just for 5 minutes lol.

grace starts next week which means mum will be home on saturday. i cant wait to see her and i know grace is going to be beside herself with joy. it is definately the old story of you dont know what you have til its gone.

well i am off to scrape play dough off my floor and walls.

sad news

hi all

well it is with some sad news that i post today. a dear friend of mine lost her father suddenly on wednesday. it has come a quite a shock to her and her family. i thought i would make some sympathy cards for her and her nan and here they are. i find sympathy cards so hard to make especially when they are for someone you care for. does anyone else have this problem? any ideas on making sympathy cards for loved ones? please leave a comment if you do as i would love some advice on this.

cheers

too much fun

hi all

i have cleaned my craft room and donated stuff to friends. it has been so refreshing to rid my room of clutter. poor sandie got a huge box full of goodies to clog up her craft space lol.

went stamping today with sandie and had a ball. we raided poor vicki's shop and stamps and made a mess (we did clean it up). i have so many stamped images now it is fantastic. i cant wait to get in and make the cards now. vicki has also agreed to sell our cards at her shop woo hoo. how exciting is that. now to get me arse into gear and get the cards packed and ready.

i really must thank kelly for this sudden bolt of inspiration. thanks kelly your call the other day was just what i needed to get me creating again and enjoying myself. housework will always be there for me. time to enjoy myself and have some time for me wont be. you are a gem girl.

cheers

still cruising

hi all
well i am still creating which is a feat in itself. i have actually had the time to sit and make a few more cards as well as juggle scouts and everything else. not easy but i think i am worth the effort.

i have some more cards to share with you all. not hugely fancy or anything like that but i love the cute bugs. so worth the $2 at the reject shop plus i still have some more left woo hoo. the wording stickers are from big w and you get two sheets in a pack which is pretty good going i think. leave a comment and let me know what you think.

cheers
