A nice Monday???

hello there. I thought I was in for a nice Monday, I really did. I had a pretty horrible weekend with my DIT (diva in training). Who am I kidding? She is a full blown DIVA!!! So it was actually a really nice start to the day. Both kids in bed with me and everyone being pretty nice to each other....Then DIT realises that I didn't pack some green piece of crap in her lunch box when we got to kindy. Like lava spewing out of a volcano she lost it. I was really cool (amazingly) and she did calm down and let me leave.
Then work was fairly busy and heading back in to Lifestyle Triple P at 7 and home by 920. Ahhh, sitting in front of the television relaxing for a bit. Monday over - bring on the rest of the week. It could only get better. Right?

Another Finished Product

Hello again. I started this layout ages ago at a workshop demonstrating embossing on patterned paper, and then was waiting for the photos to come from Harvey Norman. There should be another 2 layouts that I can finish this arvo now I have the photos. So this photo is taken of Paul and I are at the Margaret River Chocolate Factory in Swan Valley. We had a scrumptious morning tea which I am going to make another layout of sometime soon. I've stamped a swirl in versamark and then embossed it. To make the border I used the jumbo wheel Friendly words. There are 3 types of stamping on here I've just realised! The title are using glitter letters from Deb's shop.They are really great to make a quick title. To make the + I chopped off the curve on a 'T"!

A little Creative Advice needed please

Hi. Hope you are enjoying this beautiful Pilbara Sunday afternoon. It's glorious. I know I should be outside but the kids are happily playing with the neighbours so I'm sneaking in a little scrapping. So I've been working on this layout and I am a bit stuck. Tell me which one you thinks looks best to help me over this hump! I've lost the 'R' sticker! The first word on the ribbon should be Road. Ok well I'll be waiting to hear from you so I can get this layout in an album. BFN!!

A Nice Monday

Well, yes today was nice AND it was a Monday!! I had a very busy day at school doing the team screenings and then the last minute stuff for the Lifestyle Positive Parenting Program that is part of the pilot in WA. I did fit in a siesta and a catchup with Paul before he flies out tomorrow
:(. Tomorrow nite is the Fathers Day workshop and I have to clean the house and do some stuff for that. So chow for now.

Mad Maniac Monday again

I really don't know what it is about Mondays that make me so emtional. There has been tears (mine), temper tantrums (also mine) and lots more! I'm feeling better now after a coffee from muffin break and we are heading out to Dampier skate park for a play soon. But first a photo of a card that I made using the fan folding flower tutorial on split coast. Best you go there for a look rather than me bungle my way through the instructions for you. I've used the leftover edge from the scallop edge on this card too. It was really quite simple to do and effective. The photo doesn't do it justice.

Here in Karratha we have a festival called FENACL which stands for the mineral wealth we have in our area ie FE= Iron ore, NA CL etc mind is too blank right now! Anyway its lots of fun with lots of rides and community info. Lots of giveaway too. I got a couple of the new energy reducing light bulbs, water bottles, a really cool fly swap made out of a kids thong (flip flop) which could double as a bottom slapper if they were naughty lol!! Sadly one of the last things I saw last night was a little fella break his arm going down this fun slide. In all the years I've been, its the first time I've seen an injury occur.

My kids loved this ride. They are right on the back here close to the number 10! Can't wait to get scrappin' on these photos but still am making my way through this massive list of unfinished pages and projects that I have in my stash. It is a really good feeling to be working through some of the stuff. Today I finally ordered a replacement mat for my kids trampoline. Can't wait til it gets here. BFN
