Lucky Me!

I did this a while back. It's a scraplift by Andrea Friebus featured in Memory Makers Nov/Dec 2008 magazine. Her journalling was so heartwarming that I used it on my layout as well. It reads: Luck is unpredictable, uncertain, unknown. But everyday I look at you and I think to myself how wonderful, incredible, and amazing it is be your mommy. And I say to myself, lucky me! Sarah and Joshua were about 6 months old in the pic getting ready to go for their swim.

Red Rose

This is a little something I made for a relative who has a collection of ribbons. It's a ribbon holder from Kaiser. I painted it using Camouflage Chalkboard Paint, and added Black River's patterned papers, some lace, and flowers from Prima. I absolutely love the red rose from Prima!

Arab Street

What a hot day! Just got back from wandering around Arab Street and checking out the fabric and beads shops there.




I didn't buy any fabric but I did buy ribbons (lots!) and little flower and butterfly embellishments. 



Hoping to make some really cute hair clips using them...it looked real easy on You Tube. 
Guess we'll see!

Away from home

I miss my 2 little piglets! I'm in Melbourne with my DH whilst they are in Phuket with the grandparents. Josh couldn't sleep the first night they were there, hope he was better last night! Anyway, here's one of them taken last Nov in Tahoe...they look so cute in their winter outfits, and those rosy cheeks!
