Don't you hate it...????

......when you have to pay for forgotten appointments!!!!! I just received a $35.00 bill because amidst all the chaos with christmas and school functions etc I forgot (and Steve!!!) about Will's follow up appointment with the surgeon who removed his tonsils!!!I feel like such a bad mother.How could I forget about this??? Just SO much going on right now...my head is spinning! Because she was away for all of November they put our follow up appointment back to the 4th of DEC....and I just clean forgot!Such a long time after the surgery.


Are you all organised for chrissy?? I think I am nearlly there!!!! I have been making different gifts which I wont post on here in case some one sees who shouldnt!!!

I havent had any time to scrap lately only fulfilling my DT commitments but here are some things to show you!


Firstly, here is my take on the December Sketch on Paula's....


I really enjoyed this sketch and these photos of Will playing in the sprinkler were just perfect for these Bo Bunny papers.


ForScrapapple this month we were given some black and silver chrissy papers to playwith. We were asked to make christmas cards and add another dominant color. I added pink and aqua to mine I only managed 3 cards though.


Also I got to pick my kit fromScrapapple this onth soI chose some really cool WER Memory Keepers papers (TWIRL) and some awesome scrapware chipboard houses. The theme was ne years resolutions. Well mine obviously!! now is to be more organised and less forgetful so I made a journal/diary. I went to the local stationers shop where you could buy different sets of diaries,notes,calendars etcalready with holes etc tocreate your own diary. I made some covers and inserts and this is it......




These are just a few photos.You can see more here.I have also used MUMS CROCHET FLOWERSand lots of NELLIE G DESIGN, Yvette Adams journalling spot and some good old thickers.



Lastly a huge CONGRATULATIONS to BEKKY and her hubby at Scrapability Sketches on the safe arrival of TRINITY ELISE.


While Bek has been away Kerry organised a blind scrap. I have never done one of these before and it was fun. Not my fav LO(love ours though Kez!!!) but here it is....


Well better head off and get my boy from school...thanks for popping by! Eb xx

Sorry...

...I haven't posted for awhile. It is crazy at the moment!! So much going on!Chrissy shopping, parties,assemblies....you know how it is. I have got so many pressies I still want to make and some DT commitiments awaiting me on my desk!Maya had her last day at Playgroup today which we finished off with a party and we also had our street christmas party on the weekend.We have one every year where all the families put in some money and hire a jumping castle, and santa visits us. Maya was the real little socialite! Will was very subdued...not feeling well and unfortunately we have had some bullying issues in the street so we had to deal with that...but hopefuly now this wil be the end of it and Will can happily play alongwith the other boys and girls in the street!

What have I got to show.....

Well this was my last entry for Scrapability sketches comp.......( I didn't win unfortunately!!)
I created this LO about Will's helicopter adventure.

I have signed up for another lot of Kim Archer's christmas classes. One idea was this fanatstic notes/cards folder. I think I will give this to Will's school teacher with some other goodies


I also made this christmas collage that Mel Nunn was teaching. I really love how it turned out. Might have to make another one that I can keep out all year.

Well thats allI can share at the moment. Hoping to scrap tonight as I have more pressiesto make and some LOs and cards to create. Thanks for popping by.

The colors are:

Red, jade Green, Lemon, pineapple yellow, lipstick pink,Lolly pink, pale pink, black, white,orange, and lime green. ($5 a bag of 7 plus $3 postage)

Scrap the sketches update...

Just a quick post to show you my next LO for the comp at Scrapability sketches.....

Its a LO about the day Maya copied me taking photos on my lounge room floor of my yummy Nellie G Buttons.....My Little Copycat!!

Notmuch else to report...Maya has broncitis at the moment and is very demanding. Her attitude and behaviour has been terrible the last few days so am feeling very tired and drained. What is she going to be like when shes 16???!!!

Anyway,off to maybe scrap. Thanks for popping by, Eb xx
