August Sketch @ Purple Pumpkin

1st of the month means lots of new challenges in the online world! I have lots to share with you but first up is a page I finished JUST last night that took me two days to complete....god knows why, think I must've used all my mojo last weekend or something?! ;)

The sketch at Purple Pumpkin this month was designed by the lovely Melinda and looks like this...

Kraft It Up!

Been a long time since I've done any blog challenges just because...but with Mojo I decided to print some out and do my best to get some done.

I thought I was SO clever when I did my first attempt at the KIU challenge...until I realised that I didn't use any Kraft! Idiot!! Bahahahahaha!!! Here it is, I am still happy with the layout even if it doesn't qualify...

Beautiful Fairy - my littlest girl all dressed up after her birthday party in May.


And a closeup...


And now my ACTUAL entry for the KIU challenge!!

Doll House - Bronte on the morning of her birthday, so very excited to get a doll house all of her own, god love her.


Thanks for visiting!!

6 x 12 Holiday Share

So I finally pulled some more of my 'little pages' out to scrap of our holiday pre-Bronte.

There was some 'dispute' at Mojo during the Sar vs Peta scrap session as to whether these were actually counted seeing as they were only really half a page...but the lovely Peta decided that seeing as I was SO FAR BEHIND she would let it roll...thanks PJ, mwah! ;)

Kenny The Koala - Dan & his sis Kaz with all the kids, having a photo with Kenny The Koala at Dreamworld, just like they did when they were little.


Its A Shark - its a bit dark, but there is Coop looking at the shark, and just loving how close he is!


Jaws of Death - blowing out at how little Cooper was in this one!


Relax - my absolute FAVE photo from this holiday, of the polar bear at Seaworld just chilling out, god love him.


Thanks for visiting, back with more tomorrow!

52 Week Share...

The first on the list while away on the weekend was to catch up on my 52 Weeks album once again! I'm all caught up to the week before Long Point, so less than a month to do now (and I'll have to get those pages sorted soon!).

Week 16 - Roadtrip, me & Dan in front of the 3 Sisters in the Blue Mountains on our way to QLD for our family holiday.


Week 17 - Crop Day, in my hotel room while holidaying on the Gold Coast, scrapping with the gorgeous QLD girls Renee, Crystal, Anne & Sara.


Week 19 - The Scrapboom, the week I moved the Savvy store back into my scraproom and gave my family their space back :)


Week 20 - Georgia's First Eisteddfod, my girl all made up and looking WAY too grown up, ready for her first eisteddfod with the Entertainment Troupe for her 'sugar cube dance' (as she calls it).


Week 22 - Fun Run, the first time ever I ran 5km non stop thanks to the encouragement of my bestie Linda.


Week 22 (but should be Week 23, doh!!!) - Baby Jack, my friend Amy's new baby boy, so cute.


Thats the share for today, still orders to pack and nearly my bedtime, catch ya soon!!

Mojo Debrief...

All I can say is...o.m.g! What a weekend!!

Can't remember the last time I had so much fun. From the winery & chocolate shop visit on Thursday to the five minute photo session on Sunday...everything in between and more. Best.time.ever.

Highlights for me in point form...

- Scrapping with Loz on Wednesday night, the first time in two years she has played with paper and glue.
- Close to $100 spend at the Smelly Cheese Shop with Peta & San, totally worth it!
- Being held accountable by San's team of army men all weekend.
- Seeing Anne-Marie Cox flash her tits...and having the photos to prove it!!!!
- Meeting the gorgeous and totally lovely Lou Nelson, talk about one amazing woman.
- Laughing with and teasing our mushy Lisa Oxley all weekend, so good to scrap with her again after all this time, and having her put a layout together just for me.
- Cheese & wine picnic on the floor of the sewing room with Peta at 12:13pm on Saturday.
- Cracking up with the Tassie girls, god love 'em.
- Watching Marelle grab her crotch on the Glee stage, nothing better!!
- Witnessing Jo Kinder create a handmade chook for Sherry and bring down the house with the 'knock knock motherf***er' blog reference.
- Escorting our drag queen Shazza from her dressing room to the stage in the dark.
- Watching Anne-Marie impersonate her son running at 2am totally pissed, never laughed so much in my life!
- Keeping Peta awake from 2-4am two out of three nights (nah, that wasn't really a highlight but just had to rub it in again!).
- Having the.most.awesome.photo.EVER taken by Loz on Sunday when she stopped in for a visit.
- Competing in the scrap session comp of the century with Peta and getting a total of 31 layouts scrapped, what its all about!
- Driving home and rehashing it all with San, bit by bit.

And lots more as well, which I'll pop up as I remember them....so much buzzing around my head after four days with such amazing, creative, like-minded women!

Now only eight weeks to the Savvy Delights Retreat - be quick if you haven't booked in yet, guaranteed to be another howler of a weekend!

Here's a few pages of the 31 pages I got done, these ones being for some of the Mojo Challenges over the weekend. Don't ask me exactly what the challenges were, I have no idea now...

Big Girl Bed - little Bronte becoming a big girl when we took the sides off her cot, using the Paper Doll range from Bella available at Scrapbooking Delights.


And a closeup of my journalling.


Aunty Leesh's Girl - Georgie with my bestie & her godmother Alicia.


Down On The Farm - Georgie, so little, at the i98fm Convoy For Kids day out enjoying the farm animals.


Lots more to come, I promise! I think about another 10 blog posts to be exact!
