Beautiful Boutique

Welcome to our Boutique CTMH Australiasian Blog Hop. If you arrived from Vandra's blog, you are on the right track. If you happened by my blog on a happy accident...please follow the links to enjoy what has been created using the September Feature Range of 'Boutique' - a gorgeous soft, lovely and versatile pastel range.

‘Beautiful’ is a page I put together to capture the memory of after school cafe sessions with both of my daughters. It’s the final year of school for one of them so these are rare occasions and will not last forever.

Purging

The stuff can take over. My stuff was covering my work surface and much of the bedroom floor. I had to do a big sort out. I was brutal. Stuff...ready to go. I packaged it in some storage totes I had that needed a new home (I’m waiting for my new CTMH travel system to arrive) and listed it on s local trading site. It’s gone now. It doesn’t look pretty but I have a desk space and things are organised. The rest of my supplies now fit in this cupboard. Since the ‘purge’ I have had the space to create. It feels good and it’s great to be able to get to my desk. A few pages made since the tidy up...and a box of 20 cards!

my week so far...

This week is turning out great! Having time on Monday (Otago Anniversary Day) to scrap with Lynley was just the best beginning! Lynley was putting together some beginner class stuff that she intends to do soon – it looked great! I got home to an email from The Scrapbook Outlet NZ asking if I would be a casual/oncall designer for their Design Team – of course I accepted – can’t wait to learn from Rach , Donna & Shani! Then today I get an email from Jo (subeditor @ Up2Scrap ) accepting one of my submissions – I did send a few mind you so as you can imagine I’m buzzing! I have packaged the LO ready to send tomorrow after Playcentre. Need to get back to reality though – Mum & Dad’s 50th Birthday this weekend, have to work out what I’m going to say, sort some table decorations & not to mention some way of sharing pictures of them when I only have Friday night & Saturday to do it! Have to do some Playcentre Admin work this evening while Jase is @ Bible Study & the

Market Day

Sadly Lynley couldn't join me today as her dad is unwell :-( Was up rather early this morning (i.e. didn't get to bed till when some people are getting up on dairy farms) getting everything completed, packaged, priced etc for today and the organisation paid off as setting up was easy and had lots of sales :-) These photos are courtesy of Miss 8 who helped me set up this morning. Jase helped with the prep too and put these flowers together (as instructed). Off to make dinner, need sleep.
