New blog challenge

Found Punky Scraps through Peg's blog and thought I'd add a layout to the mix. This is about my desire to be on a scrapbooking online design team. I've achieved this goal a couple of times now, yay.

HNY and a HB

Well, it is the morning of the last day of 2010. It's a beautiful, bright and warm sunny day. So far I've had a lie in, put on a load of washing, eaten some cereal and jumped on the computer. Pretty dull so far. That's OK though.
I need to ring my Nan as it is her 86th birthday today. Gee, she's doing well. I gave her some gifts via my Aunty on Tuesday. She was going to keep them to give to her today. I'm sure she'll love them. I made her a special card too which you will be able to see on Blog Tiffany in a few weeks time. No peeking now. It's pink and green though.
I'd like to wish you all a happy new year. The very best and brightest thing I did this year was to meet my idol Rick Springfield on 2 October in Biloxi, Mississippi. What a wonderful man he is. Here is a photo of me with him. He's very snuggly. It still makes me smile every time I look at this photo.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all my readers. Hoping you have a joyous and family fun-filled Christmas this year. Hugs and kisses.

Merry Christmas

Here is the Christmas photo my two beautiful boys that I took this year. Each year I hand out a 5x7 of the boys to my relies. This year I had all of 3 minutes to take a photo. That was after convincing my 13yo that he should participate. I even bought him a special santa hat in his football team colours. Happily it turned out OK.

Merry Christmas (and happy holidays to those who don't celebrate this event). I hope you all have a wonderful day tomorrow and are happy and healthy over the holidays. Much love.  xxx

Dad's birthday card

Yes, my Father was born on the 23rd of December. I always make certain to give him special gifts on his special day. I made this card for him. On the inside is a Bunnings hardware voucher. Inside the white oval is stamped the word DAD. You can't see it too clearly. Anyway, he liked his card.

Only one more

I just counted up the albums I've made. The number is 49. These range in size from 7x7 to 15x12. Most of them are 12x12 though. Pretty good huh?

Close now

Only 2 more sleeps. The anticipation is building. The house is clean. Now I have to clean up my scrapping room. It is actually our dining room but I took it over when I taught scrapbook classes and workshops and I've kept it. We hardly ever have dinner parties anyway. Well, it is a mess and as it is in full view and family Christmas lunch is at our place I have to clean it. I've done a bit but am procrastinating as it is no fun putting it all away instead of playing with it. It will also mean no creating for days, which doesn't appeal. I made two little pink cards last night. Mum gave me lots of pink paper and some ribbon and lace that she didn't want any more. Yay for me.
