My Creative Space.....

Oh my goodness, it feels like FOREVER that i played along with my creative space

With the craziness of school holidays over (HELLO drop off and pick up - i most definately have not missed you) im hoping to get my blogging mojo back

Mr is off to grade 3, and little miss is off to kindy this year - something she has been longing for.... Thankfully there were no tears (from her) and she skipped off to kindy like she had been doing it forever!



and of course the grin from baby Kate when she realised it was just me and her: priceless!


I have so much to catch up on - i hope you're all still out there!

in my creative space this week im working on a heap of these..
a order for my dear friend who gets married in April




Hope your all having a wonderfully crafty day

Thanks for stopping by!

Back...

I know i know, its been a while! The good news is that my lack of posting is not due to lack of crafting - more to do with lack of time.

Every year just before christmas when my list of christmas sewing is still WAAAAAy longer than it should be, i swear i will start my christmas sewing earlier (like in January perhaps?!) but alas here i am with 2 weeks till Christmas and still with presents to sew.

So this is a little of what has been happening:















1. Hen's night invites
2. Wedding invites - it is Wedding season!
3. A framed gift for one of my best ladies..
4. A lamp and bunting set for a special little one year old!
5. A lamp/bag set as a christmas gift.

....and thats only one ones i actually remembered to take photos of!

Thanks for stopping by!

New stockists....

Been busy this week making and packing a large card order for my new and first interstate stockists Lush Creations.


I am so excited to be working with Amy so if you get a chance, head on over to their site and have a look around or if you live locally to Hilton, WA pop into their shop!




On a different note, it must be getting ready for wedding season because i now have three clients all getting married on the same day! I have been terrible at remembering to photograph my samples before i send them out (can i claim pregnant brain?!), but this time i managed to snap a few, this sample hot off the craft desk and heading out to a lovely bride-to-be...

Happenings...

Has it really been that long since i was here?! I went MIA for a bit there, sorry about that!

The good news is that under Toni's Pink Umbrella, we collectively raised over $99, 000 for the QLD flood relief appeal!!!! What a superb effort!

A big thank you to all those of you who stopped by to support all of the auctions, raffles and crafty peeps that participated and congratulations to KATE who was the winner of my auction! I hope you enjoy your goodies....



Other than that, we were back to school last week with a big grade 2-er!! Really, where does the time go? No tears though, just back to business as usual, and a little one who wishes with all her heart that she was big enough to go to school too!



Though i must admit, if i don't see another piece of contact again for another year, i will be a happy lady!


We also got to put a little face to the growing baby bump at the scan.....



I always think they look a little alien-like in these 3D pictures, but from here on in, baby has been dubbed 'Turtle' after my 3 year old declared "It looks like a turtle, Mum!". The name kind of stuck and since we are yet to know whether it be blue or pink, i guess that's better than 'IT'!


Not much happening on the crafty side, that only thing i have managed to make is a sleeve for my IPAD - and that's in between fighting the kids for it!


But now with Mr. back at school i am hoping to get back into some craftyness! I have some plans brewing for some new products and already i have a few invitation orders to work on so here's a little sneaky peak...




Back soon with a new crafty project which is in the pipeline, which i would love for some of you to join in...

Reflections....

This week has been one of fond reflection for me, as i completed a heap of wedding invitations for a very dear friend of mine. i was so excited earlier this year when i heard that my oldest and very close friend of mine was engaged! We met in kindy when we were 4 years old and she has been one of my best friends ever since.

I think its a rare friendship that spans so many years, where you have so many shared experiences, been through so much, have so many fond memories, when you know someone so well that there is nothing you can't talk to them about, that is something really truly special. Once in a lifetime i think we are touched by truly unique friendships and that is something to be truly thankful for. Here's to girlfriends, i don't think we could get through life without them!

Anyway, i digress.....

just wanted to share invitations pics...







Thanks for stopping by, love to hear your thoughts!
