A mini album made with prima. This was the perfect paper and i really enjoyed the process.

For anyone that reads my blog regularly you would know that Travis got married last year to Carla then he left for England to start his new life.I have made this album for them so they can keep those memories.I really put my heart into this as i wanted them to have something from me that they could always keep and cherish.
I will be giving them this album on there wedding day in England as that will be the English wedding and this is there Australian wedding.I am glad that i have been a part of both and wish then all the best for the future together.
I'm pretty sure they don't read my blog.Well i will hopefully post from over there at some stage as i will be at Travis's for a few days and i can steal his laptop.
Wish me luck on my huge flight not looking forward to that part.And i will chat real soon take care Kerry xx

Easter Monday


Well back to reality tomorrow and it is work for me and a very busy week too.I have started to pack my suitcase that is going to be a challenge in itself.I really don't have loads of thick clothing so i will just have to manage with what i have got.
The first page was inspired by the prima stamps and also the colours of the flowers.So it was out with the glimmer mist with this.And i used the prima stamps as well.I have loved every stamp that i bought from the latest release.You can buy them at scrap with v if there are any left now.Also she has quite a few beautiful flowers to buy too.
The second page was inspired by these pics i think i took about 20.It was so hard only scrapping 3.I think i will have to scrap another page with some more.Mikayla was so funny this day she was busting out all these wacky moves and i couldn't help but chuckle.And i just love this Martha Stewart punch too.
Well i am now down to five sleeps getting even more nervous.I think i will try and scrap tonight as my mind is in overdrive at the moment.At least that makes me relax.Have a great night and i think i might post again before the end of the week.

Happy Easter Sunday


This is what i have been up to last night.This is for Travis's in laws i am taking it framed to England.Travis snuck on there computer and emailed me the pic so i could scrap it.It looks a little crooked that's cause i photographed it crooked oops.This new prima range is just so good to work with gotta love it.

Well starting to get really nervous now only 6 more sleeps and then i will be on the plane to England.I have done a plan up for Colin so he has what he needs to take Mikayla where she has to go while I'm away.



Mikayla has been sick over the weekend too so it hasn't been a great weekend for us.She has had a really hi temp and is now coughing with like a croup sounding cough.Sleeping on daddy's lap yesterday afternoon.She slept from about 3.00 pm yesterday till 5.45 this morning in between medicine for her temperature.

Well i hope to scrap another page tonight i have a couple of ideas floating in my head and i have so many photos to scrap.I feel like i will never ever keep up with them.And with Harvey Normans 10 cent prints at the moment you gotta love that.

Well i might get a chance to do another post before i leave next weekend if not have a great few weeks and i will try and blog post while I'm away.take care love Kerryxx

I have been busy finishing all the bit and pieces that i need to get done before i go away.Still have a few things left.I'm glad i have this four day Easter break i hope to knock some on the head over these four days off.

Gosh blogger has been a pain tonight to load pics in.So very frustrating to say the least.

I will try and post while I'm away as I'm sure that i will have access to a computer where i am staying.

A challenge completed.


For a change i thought i would do a challenge.I have done this for a cybercrop challenge you had to use red,black and white and a touch of orange.Also a monogram letter and the word priceless.It was over at Bon's scraps and the lovely Bon set the challenge.
I managed to use some glimmermist and also some stamping and really enjoyed doing something different.Notice i still snuck some prima goodness on it lol.
I have fallen in love with the prima music stamps and also the stamp with the writing on it which i stamped the butterflies with.
Vanessa from SWV has them there for sale so reasonably priced too.

I have a couple of commitments that i must finish 3/4 done on one and not much left of the other.Sometimes it is just nice to scrap just for yourself.Last week i managed to do that.
Well only two more Saturday's and then it is up up and away.

So scary doing it on my own.But I'm sure it will be great fun my only wish is that Col and Mikayla could have come along too.But with the expense we could only send me.Plus Mikayla has only started school this year so we don't want her missing to much of it.

Not sure how much i can get access to a computer while i'm away if i can i will try and post a small post.I will also tey and scrap a bit over the next week otherwise i will have serious withdrawls.Have a wonderful week and take care Love Kerry xx

A disco Friday and the beach today.

In her new clothes ready to dance at the disco.

Friday night before the disco she was so excited to go to her first blue light disco at school.When we got there she wouldn't leave my side.It took her about 20 minutes to get off my leg then she danced all the time she was there.

It was like watching something out of the movies.Mikayla was running towards me from being in the water.I think she looked so cute she was oblivious to everything.

This pic was taken today also she was being a pain two minutes before this saying i only want you to take one picture.

And Mikayla also got her dance report from ballet this weekend it was really good.She is progressing well in her dancing but very shy with her singing but getting there.She had a really big smile on her face when we read her report card.
Tomorrow is parent interviews at school so i hope they are good too.She seems to be able to charm everyone.lol.Have a great week everyone and don't forget Bons cyber crop Tuesday night.
Take care Kerry xx

Look who is turning five tommorow.

Look who is turning five tomorrow yes our precious little chick.She had a fabulous day yesterday at her fifth birthday party.And tomorrow is her actual birthday .She loved each and every one of her presents.And she was so tired last night it was straight to bed and she didn't wake up until 7.15 this morning.Boy it must be tough being five.

Happy happy birthday sweet precious little chick we love you very much and we hope that you have a fun filled day .Love mum and dad.

I think this was one of her favourite things the bear sings a birthday song it hasn't left her side.Thanks auntie Robyn.

And Indiana,Tarkyn and Mikayla they have all grown so much in a year.

And of coarse the little treasure being herself climbing tree's with her friend Mackenzie.

And this one is the prima build a page for February.Don't you just love the new prima papers and flowers.I also stamped swirls and inked them not that you can really tell on here.

Also a friend Jodi emailed me today to say congrats on getting one of my pages on the prima blog yay gotta be happy with that.Prima as you all know is my most favourite brand of paper and also there flowers i would be lost without them.

Here is a link tothere blog and you will see my page up in lights tee hee http://prima.typepad.com/prima/ and a big congrats to Belinda Spencer that got the winning page of the month of January she is another South Aussie girl.And the other South Aussie girl to get her page on the blog was Lydell Quinn.

Christy and Isobel

I was lucky enough to photograph Christy and her new baby Isobel on the weekend she is such an adorable baby.I have known Christy since she was about 8 years old and now she is mum at 32.She has grown into such a beautiful girl and I'm sure she will be the best mum too.



And of course no show without punch.Mikayla certainly loves being photographed too.She wanted to know when was it going to be her turn .We have had a really good couple of weeks at school ans she is adjusting quite well.I will catch you all later i hope to do some scrapping this week one way or another.
Can't wait to get started with the new prima papers that i was able to get on the weekend from the paper craft fair here in Adelaide.

Our baby on her first day of school

She is all grown up and her bag is really heavy too.

God only knows what is going on in her head here.She looked so sad when we left her.But on picking her up she was happy.And she kept talking about the canteen.Food is her number one topic.She also was pretty happy that she could play on two playgrounds as well. I hope that she will be happy .tomorrow
