First of all, my week started off pretty ordinary with some REALLY hard days with Bronte, the crying sessions were just getting worse and worse. At times I found myself not even wanting to be around her, isn't that horrible? But slowly our week has gotten better, thank goodness. She was a really good girl for me yesterday and so far so good today as well.
Here is a layout that I did on Wednesday night, Daniel was working OT afternoon shift, Bronte had cried for an hour straight and after the kids were all finally in bed I just had to go downstairs and let it all out...
The colour is a bit off in this pic, its actually a white background, but anyway. I just really really missed Daniel that night. I copped it off Hayley on Thursday...she laughed at me and told me I was a sop, but I don't care! Its how I feel...most days anyway... ;)
A very successful day of scrapping for me yesterday. While I was shopping on Thursday, my girlfriend Kiley who owns RJ's (small discount store) in Westfield Figtree, asked me if I could make her an album to display in the store. She stocks heaps of the Kaiser products including OTP albums, rhinestones, fozz felt...AND, she said that if anyone needs anything specific she is more than happy to order and it'll arrive within a couple of days straight from Kaiser! So I left her shop with an OTP album, rhinestones, felt and Kaiser papers...I was a bit nervous as I had never actually attempted an OTP project before....but I'm absolutely STOKED with how it turned out. What do you think?
And for my final share...I'll be doing a Guest Design Team spot in October for the online store Scrap N Craft With T! I'm so excited, but again nervous as this is the first time I have done anything like this. I ordered some very exciting new products during the week, and can't wait for them to arrive so I can start playing! So head on over to Scrap N Craft With T and have a look around, there are some awesome products available. Trust me, you'll be sure to find lots of yummy goodies to order. Nothing like scrapping parcels arriving in the mail, is there??
Cheers,
Sar
Gorgeous album, Sis!!! And congratulations on your exciting news (haven't I been saying for ages you should be doing something like this?)- you're so talented, it's lovely to see you get some well-deserved appreciation for your skills.
ReplyDeleteSar, WOW! That Kaiser album is fantastic! And I love the LO, I'm sure Dh does too, it's good to get down how we feel at a point in time, so you can look back at it..
ReplyDeleteI am doing the Sep spot for Tan, so I'll have to do a good job if I am to compete with work like you are churning out.
I love Kaiser atm.. some great inspiration Sar, thanks for sharing with us :)
