Busy busy busy .....

Things have been happily tooting along here at my place .. work..home..kids..scrap .. the usual. We just finished the school holidays and the kids are struggling a little to get back into the swing of things - knowing my luck they will just get themselves sorted and they will be back on holidays for the September break lol.

But apart from that everything is going really well. Pippi is settling in nicely and it feels like we have had her with us always. We do have a couple of small issues with her but that is to be expected with a rescued dog - she suffers from separation anxiety, she is very aggressive towards other dogs (little dog syndrome) and she has food issues - but apart from that she is the most adorable loving little dog you ever did see. She has hubby wrapped firmly around her little paw! She has some cute bling now with her name and phone number on it and she is now FINALLY registered with the local council (thats a whole other story!). Here are a couple of recent photos of her - do you think she is looking happier?
I used Katie Pertiet's cute curled frames for this

In scrapping news - things have been pretty active at all my digi-places. Over at Pickleberrypop we have just sent out our latest newsletter which is super stuffed with sales, treats, tips and laughs. If you aren't subscribed .. why not? Click HERE to fix that up straight away lol! On the 15th July we also had our Monthly ScrapNchat which I really enjoy hosting - you should come along to the next one - I seriously laugh so much I nearly fall off my chair! We hold a chat every third Thursday night of the month @9pm EST - the next one will be .... 19th August!

I have been doing a bit of scrapping over at Pickleberrypop with some of the fun kits out at the moment - here are a couple of recent pages! Using Armina's Lovely kit

Beautiful Inside and Out

And this fun page was made using Digilicious Designs' E-E-I-O Bundle and is about the great day we had when Tasha's Kindy class went to a Farm for the day!

And she got together with the gorgeous Rubia from Studio Basic to make this super mouth-watering collab called Hey Girlfriend - the colours are to-die-for! Of course I had to use it to scrap a page about one of my bestest friends in world - Jane!

The Best!

Pippi is such a sweetie and looking well. It takes time to settle in as a rescue dog. Also I thought you were on the northside, I'm in Albany Creek but guess that you are probably closer in???

We really should catch up..

Pippi is looking incredibly happy. I don't think she will ever grow into her ears though, ROFL. Time and patience, that's all I can offer.

Well I have made a start on my first resolution and I have been taking my photo-a-day. I am probably only going to post on Sundays though because it is a bit of a pain uploading the photos daily blah blah blah so I thought that once a week is plenty. It's pretty quiet here on Sundays so I am hoping that this will be a good time to post the weeks photos. I am going to use the gorgeous photo frames from Deb's fabulous 365 Challenge over at Pickleberrypop - if you like them you can get them too by going here or clicking on the image :) So here are my first four days for my Project 365 - I hope I can make the distance this time. As to the other parts of my new Years resolutions I have to say i am off to a pretty good start there too. I spent some time on the phone to one of my girlfriends which resulted in me going out to see the Twilight movie with her for a nice girls time (with our eldest girls but that is ok). I LOVED the movie and I really can't wait for the rest of them ...

Ok so I MEANT to come back and post last weeks photos but I guess I forgot LOL. I jumped on here today to do some posting about my scrapping and thought opppps I'm a bit behind! hahaha oh well I put my photos on a LO again so here you are - April 13 through to April 19. Credits - DebF - Year in Review template and everything else from ksharonk designs. Now I have been doing a bit of CT scrapping over the last week and I would love to share my pages with you. Sharon had put the delicious kit Sophisticate in the PBP store last Friday and I couldn't wait to use it. The papers are so yummy and the kit is very elegant! Baby's got the bluest eyes Credits here We asked and she delivered - Dawn made some fabulous doodled page borders with some handy notebook style papers for us to play with after one of the CT girls made a request for them. The pack is called Daydreamer and you can get it here from the PBP store. They are so much fun and I had a great time making this page - cho...

ADSR Week 2

YAY I have finished this weeks challenge nice and early this time, mainly because I am off work and also because I will be away down the Coast for a few days from Saturday so I was trying to clear my to-do list before I start packing. Luckily for me my wonderful hubby has arranged for me to have limited internet access while we are away so I won't miss any of my challenges so as long as we keep getting checked off we will be eligible to go in the draw for the grand prize. Deb and I had decided that the prize didn't matter it was the race that matters most but we both (I think) breathed a sigh of relief when hubby said he could fix it for me to keep racing ROFL! So here are this week's ADSR pages... Challenge 3 was from Gotta Pixel and it involved finding the first LO you have uploaded into a gallery and re-do it, using the same photo and the same text. I re-did the first LO in my DST gallery Baby Mine and here is my new page - Baby Mine Credits here Challenge 4 was a fair...
