Apple Phone addict...


Keana has always been the technology geek in our family. She is fascinated by computers, video games, phones etc. Anyway, my friend Marina came over today with her daughter Grace (who is in Keana's class at school). And she has one of the new Apple phones. And Keana just couldn't help herself. She had to have a play. The scary thing is, it didn't take her long to work it out - she was able to flick between different games and screens without a problem. Smart little cookie this one. Anyway, I was rather impressed with the phone myself and have put in my Mother's Day order. (-: I'm sure Keana will help point her father in the right direction if she knows that she will get to play with it too. (-:

A new addition...

We're getting a new addition to our family. No, I am NOT PREGNANT! This addition is of the four legged and furry kind. She is a Maine Coon. I can't wait to meet her (she is up at Hervey Bay, so we are going to do a weekend trip away to get her). I haven't named her yet. Will keep you posted on that.

Recent Layouts...

Did this one of my little girl being such a little lady. Malayla was just so cute and adorable doing this curtsey. Isn't she the sweetest?

This layout explains the reasons behind each of my daughters names. So many people ask me how and where I chose their names. Now everyone can know. (-:

This layout is based on Pencil Lines sketch #126. Had a lot of fun creating such a bright and girly layout.

Decided to have a play with some Kaisercraft paper, and this is what i came up with. Did this at the recent Passion For Paper Retreat. What a great weekend - we all had so much fun, even if we did have to unload our stuff in the rain.

Here's another PencilLines sketch (#125). I just love the new Bo-Bunny Papers. So bright, fresh and summery. And I've found a new love - Prima Obsession flowers. I know why they call them an Obsession. I can't get enough of them. (-:

Twilight The Director's Cut...

Look what I got!!! Twilight The Director's Notebook. My hubby loves me! And I have to send a big hug, kiss, and lots of thanks his way. (He flew out at 6am yesterday morning while I was away at a Scrapbooking Retreat).

But back to the reason for my ramblings - I came home to find a present in my lingerie drawer. Yes, I know it's a weird place to put it, but he knows I will at least look in that drawer at some point. The other drawers are not such reliable options. (-: Anyway, it was heavy, and obviously a book, but I had no idea what (especially since I already own all the Twilight series of books). So I opened it, utterly confused, until I saw the cover. It took me all of 1 micro-millisecond to realise what it was. And I was SO HAPPY I was jumping for joy.

So now I have a big smile on my face because I have another Twilight item to add to my collection - I now have all the books, the album, two audio CD's (Twilight and New Moon) , one key ring, and 3 book marks. Yes, I now it's an addiction, just like my scrapbooking, but I DON'T CARE! This is my happy place!

I'm off to do some reading...cheers...

One more for the collection...

The creation of this layout was quite unexpected. I had scraps left over from my "Who's The Bunny?" layout, and they were too pretty to throw away. However, they were perfect to create this layout based an a sketch challenge (#3) for the Scrap With V Cyber Crop. So here's the end result, which I am very happy with.
