A few months ago I antered a "lottery" with an ATC (Artist Trading Card) on Facebook. I won! The theme was "I dream of..."
Here is a pic of the card I entered...

Can't wait to see what I get. I love seeing all the different ways people interpret something.

I AM THE SKY.

I will let all types of weather happen around me but I do not change.

The long weekend just gone was great! 3 days of Scrapbooking crazyness at Sacrapbooking & Paper Crafts Expo!

Working for Kaszazz at the show was excellent! So busy, but I got quite a bit of business out of it so I'm happy. I picked up some great bargains and all in all had a very succesful weekend. Cant wait for next year!

Today I had the absolute pleasure to meet and be taught by the wonderfully animated and exceptionally talented, Ngaire Bartlam.

For years I've admired her work, whether its in magazines or on her blog.

She's fun, quirky, and outragously unique! This obviously flows through into her scrapping!

It was great day, with lots of laughs, and I came home with 2 gorgeous layouts inspired by Ngaire. So thank you Ngaire and thank you Jan and Ruth!!!

A few weeks ago I recieved the latest issue of 'Scrapbook Creations' magazine as I do every month. I have to say I really look forward to getting each issue in the post. Everytime I read it I tell myself 'you really should submit some of your work', but I just keep reading and never get around to doing it. My husband has been telling me for years, 'You should enter your stuff in something!' But I never knew if he was just being "nice" or if I should actually do it. After not much thought I entered the 'undiscovered talent' section of this months issue. I recieved an email today from the editor...

";-) I have a feeling we are going to see lots more of you coming up. Great work I will be in touch re publishing some of these."

I cant tell you how excited I am!!!

Already its the easter holidays! Usually I dread any holidays ("Mum, I'm bored.") but yesterday I decided to set up the dining room for a 'girls' mini crop! Mia, Tuesday and I spent all day scrapbooking, it was really fun! Its been a while since the 3 of us scrapped together so what better time to so it than before they say "Mum. I'm bored"! Tuesday did some of her 'Gilbert' Album and Mia scrapped a few pages of Sachi. I almost finished the 8x8 'Edwards Melbourne Holiday' (only 4 pics/pages to go!) Album and I completed one 12x12 layout and managed to get lunch & dinner organised too!

Here is my finished layout, 'Kellie & Mia'...

Well, I'm home sick with Tonsiltis and my wonderful husband is looking after me so yesterday I actually got time to sit down and scrap!
I've had 2 beautiful pics of my mother in 1961 when she won a beauty contest along with the newspaper clipping of the event! I wanted to scrap it in 'Antique' style and this is what I came up with....

'Bathing Beauty'
