Well here I am back again! Can you believe it??? Well the movies this afternoon was great if you get a chance go and see Bed Time Stories. To be honest I'm not sure who enjoyed it more DH or DS? It was enjoyable though and the air con was just divine!!
We've had some seriously hot weather here in Brisbane and we have been renovating the spare room in anticipation of DH's brother and girlfriends arrival in Feb. I'll take some photo's tomorrow and pop them up as I think it looks fantastic! One downside though is we have removed the air con from the window and can't figure out how to air con the rest of the room!! D'oh!
OK enough of my going's on and here's a diary I created for my next door neighbour for Christmas. Our kids are constantly playing together and she has just started 2 new jobs and has 4 kids so I thought a dairy would come in very handy!! This is just a standard A5 diary with a week to an opening from a newsagent and on special to boot!
I've used one of my new favourite sets from the Summer Mini catalogue Embrace Life as well as the gorgeous Ginger Blossom designer series paper!
Mmm so easy to make anything look good with these! I've also used the best friends alphabet and some chipboard for her name!
The colours I've used are Ruby red, river rock and mellow moss.
OK I'm going to try and head downstairs and have a play with some of my new sale-a-bration stamp sets, that's if I can manage to sneak past the piles of folding in the lounge room!!!
I hope you have all had a great new years day and made all your new years resolutions! I'll let you know what mine is once I decide!!
Speak soon
