The first challenge was a sketch and to use 3 different ribbons here is what I come up with. I chose to do a 6x12 layout with Rusty Pickles papers, lots of doodling, buttons and heaps of ribbons.

The 2nd challenge was to do a 9x4 card and use 2 ribbons and chipboard and to also post it onto my blog. Well girls here is my card using bazzill, bazzill and more bazzill, ribbons, glitter glue, doodling, staples and chipboard. I have never done a card this big, but I like how it turned out.

WHAT A WEEK

It all started last Saturday, when my parents came over from Brisbane, it was great to see them I have seen them in nearly a year.
We went out to dinner, did the family things, gave early Xmas presents got lots of photos.
Sunday lunch time they left, well they only got 35 kms from town and had an accident, the was a truck wrench on the ground and dad moved to miss it, but didn't move far enough, and it ripped a big whole in the fuel tank, they where very lucky to be alive. There road side assistance could find anyone to tow truck them back to Goondiwindi, so I did some ringing around and found someone.
Lucky.

So they had to stay with us until a part come from Brissie. So lets just say it was fun. I hate not having my own space.
I am still trying to get over this viral meningitis I am still having the headaches, they have been around for so long.
I haven't done any scrapping this week :( Really need to get some stuff done.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will post some photos later.
Don't forget about my challenge blog http://shallenges.blogspot.com/
As of next week I have some sponsors, that are going to give out some prizes, so stay tuned for that

anyway better fix these kids up

Wow what a week.

Wow this week has gone so quickly.
I still have this annoying headache from this virus, but I am putting up with it.
Not much scrapping happening here at the moment, but thats cool.

Wednesday was my 33rd birthday, we went out for dinner and I got some new clothes.
I feel real old now.
Another thing happened on Wednesday, I got a phone call from hearing Australia, and asked if I wanted to get Brock's hearing aid early. I said sure thing. So Thursday we go to Toowoomba to get the hearing aid and I did some shopping.

Not much Today, did go to a crop tonight and started a layout..............But didn't finish it, too much talking, me thinks.

My parents are turning up in the morning from Brizzy, which will be nice. Will take lots of photos.

Anyway thats it from me

I'm still around but only just.

Just thought I would give u an update about my headaches
turned out to be that I have viral meningitis, I was in hospital for 6 hours today on IV fluids and pain meds, but there is nothing else they can do, so I came home.
Just lots of rest yeah right with 4 kids and a hubby that in working lots of hours due to harvest.

So I have had a bad week and I am thinking about going back to the hospital as the headaches are still here anoying me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a happier note I won a pay it forward RAK from Kristy so its my turn. I have 3 small RAKs to give away.
Just leave me a message this week and the kids will pick a winner next Friday.

And with not being able to do much scrapping I have come up with an idea for a challenge blog so stay tune for that.

Another big week!

This week has been so frantic and draining, and I haven't been feeling 100%. I even went to the doctors cause I was feeling so unwell. I have had heaps of blood tests done and they are checking everything. I have found a big lump under my arm and I also have a lump in my throat making it hard to swallow. So hopefully something turns up in the blood tests. And to top it off Ella has also been unwell this week, with yucky eyes, nose and a cough. So she has been on meds since Thursday. Ella hasn't been at daycare all week, I really needed the break this week when I was feeling crappy, but you get that when your a mother its a 24 hour a day job.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a brighter not all those cards I made on Thursday, got sold at the carnival tonight, was very happy about that, and the school uniform shop wants me to make more and sell them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another happy thing I got Chris a job at the bakery here on Sat and Sunday mornings, the problem is its a 6am start. But he had a great first day at work.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also have been scrapping again, I have completed another 2 layouts
Another double layout this one was for a challenge to use 5 buttons, paint and doodling and I also added my own little challenge to it no patterned paper. I just love it.


A closer look


And here is the other one
challenge was black and white and metal embellishments, and I added no card stock
wouldn't normally use all little photos but I do quite like it.



Any ho that's enough from me
