Celebrate

Today I have a new layout to share from the Manor House Creations blog, using lots of their gorgeous flowers. I especially love the patterned lotus flower. The picture was taken at Easter last year. I can't believe how little Amelie looks only a year ago. 

I love how the combination of the pastel coloured blossoms sets the theme of the layout without me having to drown the layout in Easter eggs and bunnies.

Cheers

A cover layout.

I am very excited to have the cover layout on Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazine this month. It is a pic of me with my babies when we were in Mexico. For Kyan it is his first time being on the cover. Not really sure any of them get that it is a big deal though. Maybe I need to show it to them on the Newsagent shelf.

Pretty and pink

I'm so glad I have a girl to make pretty pages about. Amelie looks so pretty in her ballerina clothes and I really love how this one came together. It is over on the ManorHouse Creations blog today along with some other great pink pages from DT member Nancy Winter.

Be sure to leave a comment and let me know what you think.

Some sharing from Down Under Direct.

These are some projects that I have made for Down Under Direct which are the wholesalers for Spellbinders in Australia. I also got my prize pack from the Spellbinders Craft to win competition, so I have been having fun playing with the new bezels. I can see I am going to get a bit hooked on them. Keep an eye on the Down Under blog for some projects I have done using them.

I made this little mail box from an old lolly box that I found at Christmas. 

 Using some of the new dies that were released at CHA earlier this year. So much detail.

 I found this photo tucked away of me and Cammy as a teeny, tiny  baby.

More soon.

Lovely ladybugs

A sweet little friend of mine had her very first birthday just a few weeks ago and her Mum and I had the best time putting together a ladybug themed party for her, complete with a ladybug cake, ladybug skirts, ladybug banner and some part hats. I made this extra special one for the birthday girl to wear using pretty white flowers from ManorHouse Creations.  You can see it on the blog here. The party was a great success, and although the birthday girl wont remember it, she'll have some lovely photos to look back at one day.

While I am posting here are a couple of cards I made for the blog also.
