Just a few layouts...

I am finally here again... just going to upload some layouts and will be back later to talk!

Jessie and Evie...

I am back...

It has been soooooo long since I posted here... I had nearly forgotten that my blog existed. I have been on holidays and have been having a wonderful time just trying to get my house in order... We are finally on our own again. The 2nd youngest child who had moved away to university and had taken a couple of years off study for health reasons and had then moved back home to manage the local Maccas store has gone back to study this year and moved back to the city to live with her youngest sister. She also got her licence finally after 6 years of learners permits!!! At 23 she is all growed up and makes me very proud.
we also went on a trip to the other side of the continent and had a great time touring around wineries and breweries (?spelling?) Anyway I was none too keen on wine before the holiday but I can now kinda see what all the fuss was about. We bought some to bring home. It is in the fridge waiting for the right moment to drink. I also bought several Tea towels. I have decided it is the best memento from travels as it is something that is used often and never gets dusty sitting on a shelf like ornaments. I also took millions of photos. Now to put them all into layouts.... Well I will when I finished the 24,000 other projects that I hAnyhoo ave planned for this year. One day I will actually make a list of what I want to achieve and then maybe it will give me the incentive to finish most of what I have started. Anyhoo I will be off to compress some layouts to post in this blog so I can come back one day and see how pretty they are.

I scraplifted this layout from a very talented designer... Jael Lopez... you will find a link in my favourites.

These layouts are just some of the several I have done since Evie was born.
Credits include: Digital scrapbooking place(DSP) Meryl Bartho, Kristins Scrap Design, Denim and Daisies (and all the designers who work there, you should go there it is wonderful place, check to the left for link)and Elegant Word art by Bethany (go to Scrap Orchard too! Link to the left too!)I nearly forgot... Pickleberry Pop too! Whew!! Check under my favourites for all the links!

I am alive, well not that you noticed I had been quiet...

Things have certainly been happening here... have had a new grandaughter since I was last here... born on 25th December, 16 days late and not very well... c-section in a hurry, poor bub spent a week in the special care nursery having exchange transfusions, infusions of platelets and lots of antibiotics... she was a big 4130grams(9lb 2ozs) she is blonde and beautiful... is all good now though...but it sure has been busy here and the grandmother is rather exhausted... will post a couple of layouts of the precious little girl soon.
