Shares = YaY! :)

see - i wasnt fibbing! I have some stuff to share :) This is proof ive been doing stuff! haha

Here are a couple of sneaks into two projects Im not quite allowed to share yet: ;)



so check back latas if you wanna see what that is all about!


And here is something I am allowed to share:

Some super-duper quick cards I whipped up ...



And a layout about Liam. I love the way his fingers are all over the keys in this pic. Its so him. He adores visiting grandad so he can play on his piano. My dad is an amazing classical pianist. I love to hear him play church music when he decides to grace me with a 'performance' :)


I took the distressing a step further than normal for me and i distressed the photo with the point of my scissors. Here is a closeup of the technique if anyone wants to try it out.

Im planning a scrappy night tomorrow which will be fun :) then Im off to Mackay for all of next week for my dental surgery - eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkk. soooooo scarey!!!!

booooo i hate dentists .... so i wonder if a 'surgeon' will be much better??!?!???? dont think so!

anyone have any NICE stories about getting wisdom teeth out??!? if its scarey stories filled with pain i dont wanna hear them haha.

i feel so happy tonight ...

im not sure why ... but i just do!

i love friday nights cos they always are followed with saturday morning. i love saturday morning even more than friday nights cos troy is home and we always take the kids for a walk through town square for some morning tea. then we go to the park or library for some family time.

i love it so much! plus i am SO in need of a chai latte - im gonna get the biggest one EVER tomorrow. bliss.

yesterday i took some piccies of my beautiful friend talia. she is 8 months preggers and ive edited a couple of the photos. this was my fav one:

if u wanna see all of them ull have to go to the photography blog. she is so gorgeous!!!!
