My goal this year is do 1 layout a day or 7 layouts in a week! I want to concentrate on the journaling, or more importantly the little everyday stories that need to be told! I looked back at all my old layouts the other day and I found that I was more connected to (and loved) the layouts with journaling! As they tell a story, that in the future I might have forgot about! I have almost done 3

I plan on doing all my childhood layouts and then do whole pages of stories on seperate pieces of paper later ;) Kinda like a story book but it will be a scrap album!!

Close-up of papers:I had lots of fun creating this layout! This is my Studio calico October kit, ALL of the papers are from the kit! Most of the papers are basic grey nook and pantry line and october afternoon! (I love em). The layout is about how my mum was a wonderful birthing partner at my son's birth and how I thanked her by letting her be the first one (after me) to hold him. Well, she

I don't think I have posted this layout before>? Anyway this is another 'me' layout! I'm getting lots of old pics scrapped ;) I love this one, the pic is from 1978, when I was in nappies and rolling around the house. My mum told me that I would push my tiny feet down on the floor and launch myself around the house! I'm eatting vegimite toast, a true blue Aussie baby. I had lots of fun making this

My Layout:This is a photo from my childhood! I've scrapping heaps of pics from 70's-80's latelty! This is me in my mum's arms at K-mart in the 1980's. The store was show casing polaird cameras at the time! OMG, lol! How I would love one now! lol! It would be so cool to do a mini album all in polarid photos, so funky and cool I think!

{To see the detail, please click on the layout!} This one of my favourite layouts I have done in a long while! (Steph Devin) took the pic for me, thank you darling! It took me about 10 hours just to create the frame. It's rolled up pieces of paper, that have been joined together with both double sided tape (to hold the rolls together) and PVA glue to stick it onto the layout! 99% of the layout is

OMG! My cousin and her patner Laurence won the Melbourne Cup! I didn't even know until today when my parents got back from Melbourne yesterday, as I'm not into horse racing AT ALL! (Our mum's are sisters!). I am so happy for her as she went thru some heatbreak a few years back and the fact that we just recently attend our nana's funeral! I am so proud of you Prue!

So that's my scrappy wish list what's yours?Ok as promised a layout from the past. I did this in 2007! I was pregnant here at 38 weeks with my first Child Owen, almost 10 years ago now!

Niall and I looked after 5 kids last night! Omg! It's hard work! We had my kids (7 and 9), my ex partners wifes two kids (6 and 10) and their 13 month old baby together! I asked to look after them!! The baby is totally yummy and I mean I love them to death!!!! We had lots of fun and the baby was easy but I think the only problem was that we aren't used to so many kidlets and the noise! OMG! The

I created this with the Septembers Cotillion kit from studio calico! It was my first LO I attempted! Everything is from the kit except the beads, sequins glitter and the lady head charm. The photo of me is on the right (taken 1978) and my DS is on the left (taken 2002). I love comparing pics at the same age and I think it's even better to scrapbook them!

It's 3am, I fall asleep early on the lounge, on my back, with a heat bag on my neck and deep heat (pain relief gel) on my neck and upper back. I'm now stiff and sore and it's hard to keep my mind off what happened! I'm feeling sorry for myself so I thought I would jump on the puter and post this scarlet lime peep.....This is the peep for the Scarlet Lime October kit and it looks beautiful! I

It's making m grrrr, especially when I got up this morning totally exhausted from this weeks cleaning and I still have that left to do! Anyway I was in a mood already when I went to go to the chemist and then collect my kids from school! Then on the way to the

I always looking for inspirational home photo's, as I love home decor design! I want my home to be a little modern, a little vintage, a little granny chic and arty! Which means, I love funky thift shop buys, handmade items, art and ikea. The decor I like isn't very expensive, it just takes a little bit ary flair I believe! I found this cute little wooden date turner (below). A great find at $4

These rockin stalls! I love, love, love, them! I found them on flickr yesterday!!I saw this pic last night and today I went to a thift store and found three brightly coloured stalls (yellow, red and blue). These stalls are in really beautiful condition, but the pads on top are gross (with country chickens on them). I'm going to ask my neighbour (who crochets) if she could make little blacket

Ok this is the scarlet lime project kit for this month! It's awesome! I don't celebrate Halloween but Niall did as a child, so I thought it would be cool to buy this kit! I will probably use the stuff up to make up a mini book! This year Halloween is on a Saturday night so we are going to get the boys to dress up (maybe us to) we are going to decorate the lounge room, make some scary food and

I did this layout a while back! It's about the day we got our second puppy called Sophie a pure shitzu. I took the two older boys (Callum and Owen) to pick her out! They loved her, she was a big fat ball of fluff that just wanted to play. I think there is a great big list of things that you should try and achieve in a life time and one of them I believe is getting the chance to look after a baby

I love bright, arty and abstract layouts! This is their August kit (below).

I finished this layout off sometime this week. I did the journalling first and then the layout. I find that sometimes the journalling is enough to inspire me. I did two typed pages of a letter to my son Owen. Not last week but the week before, Owen told me one morning that his school is raising money for the 'shoe box of love foundation'. What is it? You buy a little box and add items to it that

The photo (in this layout) was taken in 2006 not long after I met Niall. I took him to one of my favourite little parks in Greenwith. It's hidden away at the back of some houses and has a beautiful creek running right through it. I lived in Greewwith (2000-2002) while our house was getting built at Mawson Lakes. I used the park to take a break out for myself, to walk the kids in the pram and

We had a beautiful seafood dinner last night and it was so beautiful! Flowers, candles, some seafood, while watching a movie, awesome! After we ate some chocolates and had a bowl of popcorn and spent the rest of the night watching more movies. We fell and asleep and woke up at 2am! What a great relaxing night! I really love my man! The time we spend together means so much to me.Today Niall and I

I am tired, I might go have a nana nap before Niall gets home! We works until 6pm, that's a 12 hour shift today so he will be tired when he gets home. He has lots of beers, a radox bath, gets into his pj's and chills on the lounge to get into the 'at home zone'. Tonight I have a little suprise for him. I went to the fish market today and brought some seafood. We have a kilo of xlarge king prawns,

I couldn't help myself and got a Scralet Lime subscription to, starting next month ;) I think it will be away to get me motivated to start doing layouts again! This kit below is a rock and roll project kit: (it's an add-on). I brought it, they have some left over from this months August kits! I would NEVER have chosen these papers, emblishments, etc.! So it's going to be interesting for me

I'm in the mood for some romance and quality time with my baby! We thought we'd stay over night some place for some pure relaxation, just eat, drink, watch DVD's, have a spa and be merry! I found a beautiful modern funky room at Clarion Hotel Soho in Adelaide. I booked the Lush Spa Suite, it has a Large corner spa bath, rainfall-shower and feature window providing views of Adelaide’s city skyline

I was on Two Peas website (which I hardly go on anymore, and everything else) I stumbled across scrapbook kits! I had a poppy ink subscription for a year and totally loved it!

WEEKEND:On the way home from school yesterday I decided to not only cook a nice lasange for tea but to decorate the table pretty! I went around the shops with the boys after school and picked up the stuff for tea, a bunch of flowers for the table, a candle for a centre piece and some pretty glass tea lights. With a pretty vintage table cloth, flowers and candles the table looked so pretty. We had

This is the white ikea furniture I want for my bedroom! It will look pretty with my soft pink walls! (I have already painted that room).

First of all Niall and I discussed yesterday that we are going to get started on the inside and outside renovations to our house. First up we are going to paint the walls, almost every single wall in the entire house, mind you. I want to keep the colours very light, so my rooms look bigger, so that a can use wallpaper and coloured prints and items around my house. I want my home decor to reflect

This is a 40 page mini album about random little stories! (the stories are random anything from my pregnacy to my pets, to things around my home). "40 stories in total." I just the love concept and I plan on making more. I have used photo's that are extras or photo's that may never ever get scrapped. (I believe that every photo has a story behind it). The cover has been covered with book print

Monkey Man LO! It isn't a good pic sorry! But this LO has soul. LO is about my boys struggle at school with his behaviour! Yesterday he got diagnosed with ADHD and ODD opositional defiance disorder. He behaviours well at home but can't function at school! It's strange because he is soooo smart. (He's IQ is very high). We are going to put him on a strict diet and maybe medication if that doesn't

Scrapbooking:I have 4 mini albums on the go now. A grandparent album, a mummy one, a general story one and a love one (my 3rd anniversary present to us). They are all going well! When I run out of ideas (or my mind becomes blah, or if I need something and don't have it) I'll just work on the next one. It's great as it keeps everything running smooth. I also have a couple more mini albums I want

I brought Niall an anniversary card and enlarged two pictures of his boat from Scotland. The boat belongs to his family they used it to catch prawns off the coast of Scotland. (They made heaps of money in the 1970;s catching prawns). Niall, his brother, his uncle and dad did all the fishing. The picture is going to be put to good use. I love art and so does Niall so we are going to enrol at Norms

I met Niall on this day 3 years ago!!! One day while over at my cousins house I was looking thru some photos she had taken. I asked her if she had any single male friends, and she said she had two. One was a police officer and one worked in a winery. I had a look at both. The police officer was in his 30's and the winery man in his 40's. I like the look of the winery guy, he looked like a

I made this mini about 6 months ago! It has 50 pages containing 70 plus photos of pics taken at the Royal Show 08! I didn't bother taking pics of the album inside as it's is quite plan with just pics, journalling and a bit of patterened paper! My boys went on nearly every ride they could get on.

I have been watching the documentary of this lovely girls life! If you don't know her she appeared on the UK Big Brother in 2002. She became famous because of her wild, loud and bubbly personality. She has two beautiful boys (4 and 5 years) and in 2008 she found out she had cervical cancer at the tender age of just 26. I have found watching the show both sad and rewarding! There are 5 one hour

My boys go to an amazing private school and on the weekend they had a fair for the children. There was lots of rides, showbags and heaps of interesting things to see. You could ride a pony or a horse, have fun on a go-cart, be driven around in a special old fashioned motorbike and even hold a snake. We had an awesome day. It was fun. I love seeing the boys happy.

This week Neil and I have been at home just doing things around the house. (he has had a week off work and we also have had no kids). In the morning I would clean and he would do yard work and in the afternoon we would go for a swim in the pool. We've also been saving money by eatting in all this week as we need more $$$ to finish of the backyard and around the pool.YesterdayI finally my camera!

Neil had to work 12 hours on Saturday so I slept over my parents house on Friday night. It's nice to hang out with them sometimes. We talked and watched foxtel until they went to bed. I stayed up late making my little ATC's on the floor, drinking coke zero and eatting mince pies. I had lots of fun!The next day I went to "another" thrift store and brought some awesome little table cloth centre

I have been super slack at posting layouts this year! But not anymore! One of my blog goal's next year is to blog once a day and post something creative (either, an ATC, layout, mini book > whatever). I have so much to share, both art stuff and my life (the good and the bad, but mostly the good), so that is my goal.First up:School finished a few weeks back. I'm currently making 2 school mini

I hit my head on the window, I also hurt my back and neck. I feel a bit better now. I had really back headaches and neck pain for a while.I'll take pic's of the car tommorrow.

I have wanted the above for along time now! I want it for the car! Can you imagine getting a massage while driving!!!!! I get really stressed in the car sometimes (because of crazy drivers, you see). I can really see myself, driving, while listening to my Dali Lama CD, while this little baby is rolling up and down my back! Pure bliss! I want the parfum :) above!!! But it's so darn expensive!

About 4 or 5 weeks ago I got an implant put into my arm. In the last 2 weeks I have had major side effects from it. It has left me feeling anxious, depressed, in a really low mood and not wanting to leave the house. Basicly I feel like shit! I have an Ob visit tommorrow I can't wait to either get the medication I need and or take this thing out of my bloody arm. I had a look on the net to see if

I love looking at my layouts from the past and all the memories I have captured of my boys over the years!I'm going to try and post a layout a day of my old layouts over the years!My first one is called Picasso and it' a file folder filed with Owen's art from daycare. (from ages 18 months -5 years). There are about 10 pages in total. I scanned his art and printed them out in little pictures!

This layout is about empathy and compassion and what it means. The journalling I did is about three pages long. I wrote my experiences, stories and got quotes and words of wisdom from inspirational people.I want my boys scrapbook pages to have 'words of wisdom' and be a sort of 'life guide'. I think that's more important to me then anything. I mean words of wisdom from your mother, father,

I did this layout months ago! Thought I'd share it, the story behind it's cute! When Owen was two he would tap on my breasts and say "bubbles"! The little bugger would go to a shopping mall and point out ladies with large breasts and say "big bubbles". Omg shock horror! One day he picked up a pair of my bra's and said "look I have bubbles to". Cute! I ran for the camera and got this pic!The

I didn't even feel tired today even though I stayed up watching Cheaters, Trisha, The Peoples Court and Judge Judy until 3:30am on the lounge. I was also playing with my Elsie Kit I got in the mail a few days ago! I'm making

Yesterday was September 11th. Foxtel was running lots of documentaries on 9-11. I'd heard it all before. I was unwell but it made me feel 100 times worse. (If that's possible). But I couldn't stop watching. I then came across a documentary called 'The Falling Man'. The title should have stopped me in my tracks. But I still had to watch. The whole documentary was bassed on 1 photo of a man jumping

As you can all tell from my blog > I love etsy so much! I have always been a big fan of handmade stuff as long as I can remember. I really not a shopping mall person kinda girl! I just find that the shops decor items are boring and common and really not me at all. I want my home's decor to reflect the people in it. Every single item displayed in my house has a special meaning why I brought it in

Friday goes down as one of the days of my life. After years and years of hell I finally went to a female gynaecologist at the North Eastern community hospital. Neil came with me for comfort and support. I was expecting the worst. I was expecting this horrible confrontational doctor. I was expecting that she wouldn't believe me. I was expecting to be turned away empty handed with no treatment no
