Welcome to a new week everyone! They are just flying past aren't they.....
Today (Monday) I have posted another layout using the Authentique Genuine Collection.
I would love you to pop on over and check it out. I have completed a DOUBLE layout - yes I know...a DOUBLE (very rare these days for me) but also I have completed a layout of my Dad and Brayden. 
Over the last little bit Dad has made a few passing comments about there being no layouts of him!!! There are actually others but thought I would tackle this one for him. 
Here is a sneak peek.....
Now make sure when you head over to Scrapbookit you check out all of the other layouts and cards and most importantly don't forget to leave a comment for me and let me know what you think. I love receiving your comments (good and bad).

Hey Everyone,
I hope all is well in your world and that you have had a lovely day of remembrance for ANZAC Day. A very special day in all Australians hearts.Over the last two weeks I have been on sick leave. Whilst in the beginning I didn't feel like scrapbooking (that is a big call for me) I have well and truly done some since then.
Over the next few days I would love to share what I have been doing.
I decided that it was high time to get into completing Brayden's baby album (it has been 7 years now!)
I started by checking out all of the different baby/little boy papers that I had.....hmmmm a bit scary what I have collected!!
Then I sorted my photos! Well, I sorted the ones that are printed. 
I started from the beginning....here is my first layout....Introducing...
I have no idea what paper this is. It is one of the very first papers I ever had in my stash as were the embellishments and ribbons. As a matter of fact I think my sister bought it for me!
I have used little Adorn-It stickers and of course gorgeous Thickers - as always!
Here are some close ups...
Isn't he just so gorgeous! Well, I think so anyway.
Thanks for popping by.....I will be back for another share soon!
 
Well hello, I hope this finds you all very well.....and those in Sydney not flooded out!
The new challenge for April/May at Scrapbookit is up and running.
I have posted my latest today.
Here is a sneak peek of my layout and card....
Why don't you pop on over to Scrapbookit to check out what I have come up with?

Hey Everyone,
Some very exciting news.....
Scrapbookit has a new Design Team!
I am extremely privileged to have been asked back to the team as the Design Team Leader. It is all rather exciting!! We have a wonderful team of scrappers joining us. I look forward to working alongside them. They are amazing scrappers and lovely people. Why not pop over to the blog to check out who they are? Click here to find their introductions.
What an awesome start to a HUGE week for me!!

I have a few little gifts that I have created to share with you.Brayden was extremely lucky to have two lovely teachers to start off his Grade 2 year. Mrs Lappin has decided to retire and Mrs O'Mahony has just had a new little baby boy!I didn't have a chance to create for them prior to the holidays so have done so over the holidays. For Mrs O'Mahony I have decorated a photo frame and for Mrs Lappin I have created a little box of handmade cards.
Check them out....
I hope they like their little gifts.
Have a great week everyone!
 
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend...we did.
We had family visit from Sydney and we had a ball.....lots of food and plenty of drink. We had the rest of the family for Easter Sunday lunch which was a lovely day...again plenty of food and drink!

Madi, one of our goddaughters, was one of our visitors. For Christmas we gave her a pack of scrapbooking supplies. On the weekend we had some girly time and I helped her to create her very first scrapbooking off the page project.
We sat for several hours on Monday afternoon and played. It was so special to be able to spend that quality time with her - a rare occasion......especially with two younger boys (Brayden and Mitchell) who were just as keen to scrapbook.

I thought I would share with you what we came up with.......
Here is Madi with a few of the different pages of the album....
Basically, we painted the edges of the album, covered the album with patterned paper, inked edges and did a small amount of decorating. Madi is going to add some photos and extra bits and pieces when she is at home. She has promised to send me photos of the finished product which I will post for you all to see.
Madi was so proud of the scrapping she did and so she should be....I was super proud of her too!
I have sent her home with a few magazines to create some layouts hopefully she will have a go and create some great layouts. Her Mum and Dad are hoping that I haven't created a "scrapbooking addict" - I hope I have!
