Some exciting news and just a couple of things that i have been upto.

Little miss modeling for me in the tshirt that i decorated for her to go with her skirt that i made.

Don't you just love this skirt well i do.Thanks so much to my good friend Janine she drafted this pattern for daughter and allowed me to trace one off for Mikayla.I pit this together last night and just love the fresh look of it.

And the invitations for Travis and Carla's English wedding invitations they took me about a week and a few days very fiddly but i was happy with the end result. Now i have to hope and pray that they get there safely.
And last but not least i have been keeping a little secret.I applied to be on the creative team of scrap the girls and i have been chosen as one of them.I am looking forward to working with all the other very talented ladies.And congratulations to the other ladies that have got through too.

Scrap the girls have a monthly challenge and only females are allowed to be scrapped.


So come and join up and be a follower and do the challenges each month there are great prizes to be one.The next challenge will be up tomorrow and it is a fabulous one.
Click on this link http://scrap-the-girls.blogspot.com/ and that will take you there come on you know you want to play.Thanks Kate for inviting me to be on your CT i am looking forward to all the new challenges that you will bring.

And the other secret is that Vanessa from scrapwithv has asked me to join as a kit designer for her site.How cool is that,i was on there design team for a couple of years.Just with work commitments and family it was really hard to to be able to post and be part of a great site and help with things on the forum.This is a great fit now as it suits me not to be on a dt and commit to the many hours that is required to keep a forum going.

This was my favourite for the day.Thanks Kim for bringing the girls down to get some pics it was lovely to chat and relax.Mikayla had a ball.
An she is so adorable.

You would think that butter wouldn't melt in McKenzie's mouth but we know better.
And Riley is so sweet she is like a little angel.

Little cherub.

And the skirt that i made today with the t shirt which i appliqued.Thanks Janine for letting me draft the pattern.I also have put another skirt together but i ran out of one of the fabrics.I hope to get that one finished by the end of the week.

Loving the colours in these layouts.

I just love this pic of Mikayla.Lots of technique on this layout .I have masked it and crackled it as well.Loving the new punches too.

And with some of the left over crackling paper i added to this layout.I was inspired by Steph Devlin with the transparent piece on the side .She has used a hambly transparency and i have stamped my own i was pleased how it came out.There are a couple of transparent frames on the page as well the picture didn't really show then though.

some help required for cards and also a layout to share.

Can you believe that this is the house that i spent my younger years in living with two brothers and two sisters and my mum and dad.My brother took this pic while he was over at kangaroo island at xmas time.I cant believe we all fitted in it.
A pic of Col and i just had to scarp it.



And finally some cards that i made for a friend Gigi her son has Autism and she is raising money for a special sensory room for his school.So if any of my friends that do cards or even if you don't i would love to see if you could help too.Please let me know what you can help with to raise money for these children as they need to raise about $5000 dollars and these days that's not easy.

I have made ten cards and really it took me about two hours and loads of scraps that I'm sure you all have in your stash.Even if you can make 1 or 2 that's a couple more than none.Any little bit will do.If you can't i understand.A gold coin donation would also go along way.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.Just let me know.Take care Kerry xx

Don't you just love little babies i do.Riley is so sweet congrats to Kym ,Mark and Mackenzie on your daughter and sister.

She is adorable here just love this pic.

And what is an update if the little miss wasn't in it.

This would have to be one of my most favourite shots ever cant wait to scrap it.And yes i finally scrapped another layout.Well i started this by default at Janine's Saturday.I actually forgot to take the photos that i wanted to use so i found this by luck in my scrap bag.
And the papers were already cut from ages ago,i don't even know what they are that's how old they are.
But they are so bright and bold i love how it came together.And i am 3/4's through another layout on a roll.
Thanks for the catch up Janine it was nice to catch up and chat been a while.And it was great to catch up with Kym as well and have a cuddle of Riley.Well Mikayla has been bugging me all day to take the christmas tree down so i better go and do it.
Happy new year to everyone who visits here i hope that the new year brings you loads of joy and good fortune.xx
