garden harvest

I love finding things in the garden! This kind of natural foods just tastes better when you pick it yourself! We've been tidying up the garden ready for Autumn and we gathered some plums & were pleasantly surprised to find green gage plums and wild blackberries too! Jase also picked some crab apples which may eventually become a jelly! The neighbouts quinces are growing nicely too & we will ask them if they are happy to share some again this year - I love quince paste with blue cheese! Another rhubarb cutting is in store too - rhubarb shortcake - yum! Posted by Picasa

Yum fresh fruit from the garden.
We have a rhubarb plant (rhubarb garden!) too - I did have a vege garden but Ken decided to extend the house (verandah/ outside 'room') over my carefully tended garden, and the only plant he thought worth moving was the rhubarb!!

Isn't that photo just great? We have tomatos, letttuces, spinach, heaps of herbs, lemons and plums in our back yeard at present and that's it. I was hoping to get Elliot to eat more fresh stuff by growing them - hasn't worked - but it is lovely picking something fresh

Oh yum! That pic is making this preggy chick hungry! They look super yummy! Thanks for the comments on my layout in the latest mag. They were pics that belonged to a special friend so it was nice to do that for her.

Keep those fruit yummies coming.

New Grad

This month I used the 'Sunshine Vibes' bundle to create this layout for the Stampin' Up Artisan Design Team. Using die cuts to create stencils is a favourite way to create backgrounds for my scrapbook layouts. This bundle allowed me to do this and then to back some of the die cuts with in colour DSP.  Puffy hearts and fussy cut flowers add dimension. If you live in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator already and want the supplies I have used, please visit: https://laramoss.stampinup.net and head to the shop to look for: Sunshine Vibes Bundle Mini Alphabet Dies Florals in Bloom DSP

Camping with Jack

Welcome to our Jack Blog Hop! We are going to share with you, items from our Jack Paper Pack with various projects created by talented Close To My Heart Consultants.  If you are visiting from Brenda's blog then you are on the right track, if not please head back to visit Carol's blog where this blog hop begins. Jack papers were a bit of a challenge for me, especially after my enjoyment of working with Prickly Pear last month.  Luckily I enjoy a challenge and have one layout, and a process video, to share with you here (there are some other pages and projects shared previously on my blog - after the blog hop you can pop back and check them out). The challenge here was using 3 photos.  I have become adept at choosing just one photo that tells a story and adding journaling so I don't always need lots of photos on a page or two. But as this was about an event, there were more photos to place.  I made use of the Camping Life stamps for embellishing and addi...
