Scrappy Go Lucky "strut your cuts" Challenge 2 & oh my WASHI!!!

Hi
Well its week 2 for the Scrappy Go Lucky Challenge!!
This week i managed to use all 5 of the carts!

Create a Critter

Rock Princess

Home Decor

Cuttin’ Up

Graphically Speaking

Its quite a different take on christmas photos...but it was such a struggle to get my eldest to stand next to santa....I think it might be our last Shop Santa photo for him...which makes this one Priceless!!


As a design team member for Sawyer's Place, I received some fun washi tape exclusive to Sawyer's Place to have a play with!
I have made some cute robot cards using the Titus Range of Washi tape

I used the Collection of washi tape to create a robot using the offcut from the other one!! It saved throwing it out & looks quite good...i will add a sentiment to the card when i use it as it could be for a get well or a happy birthday!

Isnt it the CUTEST boy range ever!!!

Other Designs i played with are Hearts & clouds..its so so sweet!!

I love how easy washi tape is to use!!
It is very hot here today & Im melting away....

happy Holidays

Hi
We had a nice christmas with family this year...we went to my grandads for the first time & hopefully not the last time for christmas lunch

The kids all got some fabulous presents from santa & even i got some cricut cartridges & the provocraft cricut bag...yay me!!

Today my cousin mandy is getting married...she lives on the other side of australia now so sadly we couldnt make it over for the wedding as it was so close to christmas & everything is more expensive at this time of the year

I made some glittered glass baubles a few days before christmas...they were so easy to make..i used some vinyl to personalize them with names

We also made our own mini gingerbread houses...the kids had lots of fun decorating their own with lollies!

In the new year i hope to stick to my plan of using all of my cartridges i have! Over at Scrappy go lucky they will be having a challenge to use upto 5 carts a week!
i dont know if i could be that dedicated or even if i have all that they have ....but i will give it a go!

Also Sawyer's Place have some fantastic new washi tapes!! I hope to buy some of the gorgeous boys design of robots & cogs in the new year not to mention some of the other fabulous washi tapes!!!


hope to catch up to you all in the new year

getting christmas started!

Hi
I have been making christmas cards!!! i cant believe its nearly another year over...where does the time go??

I had lots of fun cutting out a range of gingerbread shapes from my Gingerbread cartridge i got a month or so ago...first time using it!! They are so cute!!

So here is a few pics of my simple christmas cards....my family just isnt into elaborate designs & inking & distressing sadly enough so simple & quick it is!!

I used the wonderful washi tape from Sawyers Place I love this Red Starburst one....it reminds me of christmas!!

Im off to make a few more xmas cards today at my scrap group & then off to my kids open day at school....life is about to become busy busy busy so i may not be able to get to post again until closer to xmas....but i also will show you a gift i have made for my cousins wedding coming up in December ...so keep coming back to check in on me as i will try to blog as often as i can during this silly season!!

New washi tapes at Sawyers Place!

Hi all

Yesterday i got delivery of the brand new Exclusive designed washi tape from Sawyers Place. Its the new Ophelia Collection & its Devine!!! I couldnt wait to have a play with it....i made a birthday card in quick time!!

This card Im entering over at Birthday Sundaes challenge to use Black, white purple & green!

I used the New Ophelia collection washi tape Insanity Script & Regal Damask along with some green card stock i embossed & a cut from the cricut.

This weekend is a long weekend...its started already...due to the Queen arriving & chogm....so what does one do when the Queen is in town?? Have a Halloween crop of course!! Im off to a all day Halloween crop on Saturday....i think i will get dressed up...but i don't have much in the way of fancy dress...most stuff in my wardrobe is scary as it is...as in ancient...i don't go shopping for me very often!!

I got a provo pickup this week too....3 new carts...all cricut events plus i have a few more winging their way to me as i type!!

have a Spooky weekend everyone!!!

Where in the world is Jacob??

Hi
Just thought i would do an update of Jacobs Hot blog hop around the world!
You would never guess where he is!! At Provocraft of course!!! I think i may need to twist his arm or seduce him somehow so he can tell me all of his secrets he seen while there ie new cartridges ect!! I cant wait til he gets to my place!!
If your interested in seeing the stuff he did while hanging with cricut & all the cool people at provocraft click on my link off to the side with Jacob on it....i just updated the link!


Also while im here....might as well say my kids had their Faction sports carnival yesterday....They had a great time...sadly their faction came last...its been awhile since they have had a win....but if there was ever a prize for the most disqualified teams we would have won that for sure!!

Here are some streamers i made quickly the night before...I cut up some wrapping paper & then used the washi tape i got from Sawyers Place to keep them all together & as little handles to hold them....my kids loved them!

have a great weekend
