DOH!!

Unfortunately I didn't make the Hambly DT but wanted to come by and share with you the layout I created for my application.  I am so so so happy to see this amazing, super talented gal on the team.  She so deserves it and rocks with Hambly!!!!

"By The Sea"


Just some closeups.....I really loved making this, so beachy!!!



How adorable is this Prima Metal Treasure?


Thankyou so much for the lovely compliments of my photos.  You are all so wonderful and kind but unfortunately I don't look like that everyday, it's more a case, did I even brush my hair today.......lol!!!!

The Color Room + Shimmerz

Hi everyone, hope your weekend was a good one!  Thought I would just pop by to share with you my Color Room layout for this week.   I really love playing with white atm:)  Lots of Prima, a bit of Glitz and lots of texture paste in here!  I absolutely love the way Mason's blue eyes just pop with this combo. 

"Magic In Your Eyes"




And the palette............Oops when I printed this off my computer it definately threw more of a yellow tone......anyway......


My next layout is my first layout featuring Shimmerz.  You can see here which colours etc I used:)  I let alot of the mists run down the page and flicked some here and there.

Mason giggles so hard at his brothers he almost brings tears to his eyes!!  It's totally adorable:)

"Giggle"


I painted Shimmerz onto Hambly.



EEEEkkkkkk........here's something different.......piccies of myself!!!!  I had a football ladies night last night and had Tim take some pics of me before I headed out.  I was being silly with some poses but I don't mind these ones.  I even had a few foils put in my hair last week.....thinking of going lighter again (which I haven't been since I got married)!!  Getting dressed up doesn't happen very often for me these days so it really felt nice......mind you when Mum picked me up last night the first thing I did was take my wedges off....lol!!!!

I just wanted to say thankyou lovely girls who left me comments last post:):)  It's so nice to know you are not alone and we all have our ups and downs....we are all human  after all!!  My darling husband.......gosh I loved him a WHOLE lot on Saturday...lol;) has got my external hardrive working again, but we also bought another and backed it all up on there!!  Wow, that was such a horrible feeling thinking I may have lost photos! The other dramas are still not fixed, but meh, at least I have my photos:):)

A few weekends ago we went on a litte getaway to Bargara and surrounds.  Please somebody up there let me win the Lotto so we can have a beach house....lol!!!!!!  So here are a couple of pics:)

Not having the best of weeks........

Arrrgh, it's been one of those weeks!!!  Technology is definately not my friend this week....Firstly my Iphone got a teeny bit wet and now it hardly works, no lights and I can't hear it ringing.  I tried the whole sitting it in rice thing, it now turns on but that's about it!  Secondly, my external hardrive just stopped working........which is reallllllyyyy stressing me out because that is where all my photos are!!!  I have so many of them backed up but there are some that aren't (stupuid, stupid me!)  Thirdly my internet plays up every so often and needs to be reset all the time...I think it's time for a new router.  Lastly our pool chlorinator stopped working too, $330 later and apparently it's fixed, we will see next week when we get it back!!!!!  To top it all off the big boys have been driving me mental today.....I just wanna cry!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Okay rant over....deep breaths, here's a layout that will put a smile back on my face!

Unfortunately though this is my last layout for my design team spot at My Little Bit Of Whimsy. Thanks again Steph for having me on your team.  Of course this won't be the last time I use the Whimsy's, they are too cute and I still have a little stash!!

This layout is using October Afternoon Sideswalks and it's just about the little bond forming between these 2 little guys!  Cooper starts prep next year so they will get to spend alot more time together:):)  Kobi loves music and dancing so he sings to his bubba every now and then!!!  It's too cute!


Some closies!
Little birdie Pin and Mushroom button:)





TGIF!!!!  Kobi and I are off to the Wiggles on Sunday!!  An early birthday pressie for him:)
Thanks so much for visiting, sorry for the whinge. I know things could be much much worse!!!
Hope you all have a beautiful weekend.

Prima PPP + BAP

**HI**
Hope you are all well and had a lovely weekend, thought I would pop by and share my Prima projects for this month:)
The first is the Prima Product Pick........absolutely loving these colours!! 


Now we don't celebrate Halloween here in my household, but I couldn't help but alter this Candelbra I found on top of our cabinet collecting dust!

This was so fun, the little bats are just the cutest....and so sparkly:)  I used lots of inking and lots of cotton wool pulled apart so it looked like cobwebs!  Added a few Prima blooms, leaves and Twisters and here you have it.....






Next up is the Prima Build a Page sketch:) 



This pic was of the boys last Christmas and I haven't got around to scrapping it so I pulled out Prima North Country line and went with it!!!  I can't believe we are almost back to Christmas again...woo hoo so excited:)



Look at the Resin Wishing Well, it just went perfectly on here:)



Have a wonderful week, I am hopefully going to get stuck into some bits and pieces for Kobi's Pirate Party next month:)
Take care, thanks for calling by xo

Prima layouts!

Hi lovely blog readers:)  My gosh I am so behind with sharing my work here!  Here are my latest Prima designs.  These have all been shared on the Prima blog so you may have already seen them:)  The first one using Alla Prima!  Just love this piccie of Cooper at the beach from last year. 

"Home"


It was fun writing the title over the picture, I don't do that very often!


Gorgeous new flowers, Solitaire and Jardinere (in Alla Prima) and SIIC.



I know have 2 layouts using the adorable Pixie Glen. 

"Growing Sweeter Everyday"


A couple of closeups:)



"Blessed x 3"


Lots of Resin here + Reflections and the cute little birds nest with 3 eggs for my 3 boys!



I hope you enjoyed my Prima layouts today:)

Now I just want to write down a few little notes about adorable Master M.  He has just turned 4 months old.
- you are 8kg (yes, he is our big bopper), so that makes him 2 kg's off Kobi and he's only 4 MONTHS old....hehe!
- you are 63.5cm long
- you have only rolled a couple of times from your belly to back
- you have 5 bottles a day, we have tried solids but not quite ready yet
- you get more and more like your daddy everyday but I'm pretty sure you're a Mumma's boy
- you are so happy, content and smiley and love attention
- you are blonde (woo hoo) and blue eyed.......for now
- you are starting to dribble lots
- you have the cutest squeals, giggles and other noises

I could go on and on all day about you Mason, you are the sweetest little guy and we all love you to bits:)


Hoping you all have a wonderful week......I am sure I will be back soon, I told you I had alot to share!!!
Hugs xo
