Scrapbooking Layout - Sarah the Swimming Star

Just a quick update before we head up to the heat of Townsville. I am so into doodling at the moment and I have taken on the mammoth task of creating mum a birthday calendar for her birthday (which I decided to start 2 days ago and her birthday is on 27th Dec), and while trying to incorporate ideas for embellishing page including doodling which she is always complaining she can't do. Anyway back to the main subject - doodling here is the latest page I have completed.

Merry Christmas Everyone
Best Wishes
Tracy

PS I will post copies of the calendar when finished, 2 pages to go and only 1 day left before we head up north. Its going to be tight!

Hippie Birthday Invites

Phew I am so glad that is over with. I had the task to create for my friend 30 hippie birthday invitations for her 40th birthday. Whilst the first 8 or so was fun, by the time I got to the 30th I was so over it.

I printed the details on velum and attached to a card and flower which slides out of the envelope.

She is really happy with them with is what counts and I must say I am also. It was a great way to get rid of some of my scraps, which was starting to look like the Leaning Tower of Piza.

Gay Penguins?

I am all for gay rights and people to choose how they live BUT I had no idea the penguin world had these issues also. Click on the link, its true it was on Yahoo Headlines 16th December.

Merry Christmas from my2angels

Have a Merry but safe Christmas and New Year Everyone

Thank you for your continue support this year. 2009 is starting off to be very exciting with the launch of our very own brand of ribbons - the first range is for the boys.

Dying ribbon and flowers with coffee

I thought you might like to see the page I finished this weekend and to also share a tip with you that you may not know of. I needed some beige ribbon and flowers for this page but only had white so I soaked them in coffee (no milk or sugar required ;) for approximately 5-10 minutes - let dry and then I had the right colour to finish my page with. I use my2angels white ric rac and our yellow/white flowers. Also used on the page was our brown buttons and rhinestuds.

On the search for a new trimmer

Whilst I love or am just use to my stanley knife and metal ruler for cutting I thought I might go on a search for a trimmer. Now I know the world is getting advanced and the technology is mind blogging, I mean I am still trying to get my head around fax machines. My sister lives in Scotland and I can draw a picture and in two minutes she will have that picture on her fax machine. Truly how does that happen? Anyway going back to the trimmer search, take a look at what I found, not my cup of tea / glass of rum and coke but could be yours!
