{A slight pause!}

Is what I took from blogging.

Firstly thanks everyone for the lovely comments and well wishes! On that side of things it is progressing along nicely. I'm trying to take things easy (but that is easier said than done as we are moving soon!!!!) Once we move we can start preparing for the little ones arrival properly - I can't wait!!

So I have been scrapping a little. I was taking part in Shimelles new class over on two peas - Really enjoying it except I've gotten behind now - but as previously mentioned we are trying to pack!! But I've attached below a few of my recent layouts. Also I'm looking forward to be learning something new with Shimelle next month too!

Also since my last post we have celebrated my birthday (dim sum, friends, presents and Indian meal with parents), celebrated a friends birthday, went to a wedding, and packed 15 boxes!!

Also bought some new thickers with some birthday money!! Yummy new stash!!

So that's me blog land for now... Hope your all well and ready to welcome in September tomorrow (man the year has gone so quick!)

{PARTY TIME!}

Woo Hoo!!! Grab yourselves a drink, put on your ultimate party track and make your self comfy!!

Well, this party sure has been fun! Checking out all these pretty pictures and inspiration over at Shimelle's - there are some super talented ladies out there!!

Well as a party favour from the ever lovely host Shimelle sent me over a .pdf download of printables!! I have NEVER used my home printer for anything other than printing pics - so this hybrid intro was gonna be fun!! I had the entertainment downloads! And I loved them - you can get your hands on them by signing up to Shimelle new class - which starts tomorrow!! over on two peas NOW!!!

So what did I do with them? Well after printing them out - I made a Layout!!

I used the print out as my title for the layout 'Let the Good Times Roll' and used the journalling card 'What we Do for Fun' to create the theme for my layout. I searched through my HUGE selection of photos for some which showed what me and K like to do for fun. These were all mounted on kraft *sigh* bazzil cardstock - and then I found a photo of me and him looking rather well ....silly!! I was super pleased with how quick the layout came together - having the journalling prompts do just that prompt the theme of the layout was great. I managed to use some photos I had but never used - you know the ones. The ones where I want to record my life but how do I then put these on paper kind of photos! Those ones!! So now I have a layout with just a little bit of peek into mine and his life right now, pretty cool!!

Anyhoo - Thanks Shimelle for inviting me! And thanks to any party guests dropping by! Hope you have fun and enjoy the rest of the party.

Looking forward to Monday now......as I just signed up to the class too *grin*!!!
