A little bit of play time

While at the beach I had the chance to put together some simple pages. It was fun using just the bare minimun of supplies as I didn't want to take the kitchen sink away with me. There are a couple more but the images I took of them were a bit blurry. I think my fave is the one on the bottome right - 'Sunday Lunch'.

While there I got some October Afternoon collection packs from Andrea (Scrapbook Outlet) - nice to have some fresh stuff - inspires the creativity I think, and when thinking about 'fresh stuff' I'm seeing lots of nice items that are coming out at CHA.

I'm also working on 'Move more, Eat well 2012' with Big Picture. Nice to connect a goal for this year with creative interests.

Happy New Year Lara. Oh enjoy the class at BP. Love what you have done with your layouts. Just proves you don't have to use a lot of product to scrap. Bev and I were talking the other night and decided we need to get creative again. So we are looking at setting up an informal craft group to help us on our way.

Wahoo, I won one of the Awards For Excellence with For Keeps - for photography! I've just collected my prizes from a friends place - she went shopping to spend my $500 voucher at Scrapbookers Delight in Auckland for me - how cool is that a prize & a personal shopper!!!??? Any way I got quite a few bits of patterned paper, cardstocks (still need white!!!), a new trimmer, an embossing heat gun, some stazons, some distressing ink a new cutting mat, some cool powders, adhesives & tombow, anyway, have to go put it all in it's place so I can use it. Niks coming up tonight so we can play - have a tag to make for our cyber friend Sal of Scrap Of Faith as she had her fifth baby - Cowper early this morning - Congrats Sal! Anyway, gotta vacuum since Niks coming....

blenheim

We are currently in Blenheim. Have been doing some of the wineries - a work trip for Jase - we just get to go along! I'v been playing with some of the phaunt actions by Kylie Banks- my faves are phaunt magic instant & then beastly colour. Got the links from an online class at Scrapbook Outlet with Mandi Haynes. above: Katya on a walk in Waikari with Jases parents. Below - Harold the older giraffe at Orana Park, just before I met Vicki & checked out the stamping up catalogue. Jase & I joined a winery tour today - was a great way to meet some different people & to see & learn a little bit about some of the local wineries. Feel quite isolated without my home internet connection though!
