And, just because:

I have been doing a bit of baking over the last day or so. Megan made a chocolate cake from scratch and iced it with coffee icing - Yummo!! I made a Scrmptious Slice (yes, that is the name of it and believe me it is aptly named!) and a date loaf, I think I will make a tuna quiche for dinner tonight.

School Holidays!!!!!

Yay!!!!!! 2 weeks of school holidays!!! I am so looking forward to a break in routine from early mornings, homework supervision, kids sports etc!!

I am hoping to actually getting some scrapping done over the break!

Julie from A2Z Scraplets asked me to be a guest DT for this month's new release vinyl stickers and chipboard. I came up with 4 layouts. I truly love using A2Z Scraplets gorgeous products! They are so versatile and easy to use!

Here are my layouts:

I would love to meet Julie one day. She is a very talented lady with her creations, and an asset to the scrapbooking world!

Great Retreat

I had an awesome time last week end at the Scrap With V retreat, held at Shearwater Apartments, Kings Beach, Caloundra. It was so lovely to catch up with all the lovely ladies again. Boy, we laughed all week end!!!! There was definitely serious scrapping happening, frequently interspersed with riotous laughter! It was all gorgeous!
The owner/managers at Shearwater are very nice, and very helpful. The food was amazing! I ate more over the week end than I normally would in a week!
It was so good to see all of the beautiful products Vanessa brought up for us to buy. I love the Webster papers!!!!
Thank you Ness and Millie for all of your hard work!!! You are treasures!
On her return to Mooloolooba, Jessica Watson even sailed into Kings Beach for us! Wasn't that nice of her?! Her "Pink Lady" looks so tiny!!!

Here are a couple of photos of Jess:
