oh im so lucky...looky looky what came my way today..
.i've flown my broomstick all the way to W.A.
to collect the most awesome selection of tags from the
most talented of scrappers..
i love them all and i can see a little of every person on these cards
..great job girls...they look FABULOUS


How cute is this living doll?,Gorgeous Poppy captured in a moment, this photo shares a little bit of magic to the viewer...so how could i not copy and print it to scrap ...i'm sure Melissa doesnt mind..as all you scrappers know .aint it great to scrap a different face every once and a while..
the little patch is an original 70's clothing patch(i have a small stash of them)and it was waiting for the right layout.. this layout feel together very easily,because i used the technique..."what does to mummy(meaning melissa) like on layouts and bang ,there it was...the only thing missing is the little birdie..tweet tweet.

a new baby is such a joy for any family,so much love and untold happiness for all to share.
and i'm a lucky person to be able to share a little of this joy with my forum friend Donna ,who recently gave birth to adoreable TOBY..
now distance seperates us...and the fact that we have never met in real life..but we dont let this hold back our friendship...~you know when you just click with new ppl~..well i've been a little slack of late ..Donna has moved from one side of the country to the other and now she has settled into her new space with her new baby,gorgeous girl milly and mack..almost ready to scrap again..
ive been lucky enough to recieve wonderful photos of toby and the family ,and i wanted to give a little something back...hope you dont mind me scrapping this stunning photo of Toby.could you email your new addy donna..you have a package coming your way...

a layout for a forum friend..
i will be posting this one on to lucy this week and hope to catch up with her very soon.
busy weekend full of skater boys~the grown men type ~invading the house which left no space for scrapping ,boo hoo ..i did manage to pop this one together though..i hope she likes it

PINK IS NOT DEAD...
in fact she kicked ass last night in Newcastle.
and i was lucky enough to share it with some fabo friends.
lisa's dad organised a limo ,which was a bit of an extra treat
AND AS IT TURNS OUT CHRIS OUR DRIVER IS BEST
FRIENDS WITH MARK,WHO IS SEANS BROTHER
,and sean once played in a band with Paul,my partner.
we arrived 10 minutes before main act..perfect timing
she rocked along with her awesome band and singers and dancers
,she played all her hits plus a few more,
she danged from the ceiling on more than a few occasions....
had many costume changes,infact i she stripped down to the bare essentials .
wow she has a killer figure...her vocals were totally PINK..
for this indi girl who was a little uncertain about what pink could say to me
well tonight i learnt that PINKS NOT DEAD`and neither is punk...heheheheh
heres a few pixs from tonight..which i do have to say were crap.
.i took over 100 shots and they are all crap bar a few.
