Changes

New Year, new adventures.
Well I've had a full house and a full calender so far this year. Busy, Busy. Erin moved back home for a couple of weeks, that was a couple of months ago LOL. I love that girl dearly but she hasn't quite got her Mum's perfectionist's streak, now I know that is a good thing sometimes, but when it comes to being organised and clean she could do with a bit more of the streak. Good news for Locky though, she's got a place and moves tonight, the poor kid has had a mattress on the floor since she moved in and tonight he gets his own bed back and I get some mess cleared away. LOL (love U Erin ;0)
Most of you lovely ladies who follow my blog will know I've been working really hard with Maxine at Wednesdays Wishes, well we've had big changes there. We decided to do Wednesdays Wishes x 2,,,, well sort of. We're branching out on our own adventures, it has all worked out beautifully and we are very excited with the future. We will still do some teaching gigs together and occasionally design a kit together. My new venture is Your Creative Wings very similar to Wednesdays Wishes except, I get to work from home now and Max from hers, she even gets to save teabags, toilet paper and even a bit of liquid soap LOL.
I haven't gone live just yet, but it's all happening real soon, so stay tuned.
There's a blog up and running to fill you in on all the details and what I'm up to at 'Your Creative Wings'. To keep updated, pop over and follow the blog Here

I've got some beautiful Creative Project Kits for my first release, here's a sneak peek of a couple

Happy Creating

Wired Up

Been playing with some wire again, love using wire and beads etc. This little piece has some bits and bobs from Wednesdays Wishes. Another little piece of Art for Arts Sake, just the way I love to do things.

the Birdcage is made from bangles wired to a A5 canvas board.









Perth is heading for some real hot weather over the next few days, I'm not a fan of hot weather at all. So I won't be moving around to much. Luckily my craft are is air conditioned ;0) Hopefully if all goes well that's where I'd like to spend most of my time during the heat.

BTW There's a new kit over at Wednesdays Wishes also, go check it out :-)

Happy New Year,,,

I blinked and December disappeared,,,,The last month of last year was full on, as it is for most people at this time of year.
We celebrated my Dads 70th with a suprise family dinner at Hillary's Boat Harbour here in Perth, what a beautiful night it was.



Now I have no trouble getting myself out of the house on time, but when it comes to getting all of us out on time, well that's another story. Much to the rest of my family's suprise ;0) we made it on time and beat Dad there, this is him spotting us at the restaurant.

Good company.
Good Food.

Good wine.



Great Fun!!
The Grandkidz, Erin's a little out numbered.


The Ratbag Boyz.


The Girlz, Happy Birthday Dad!


We had Rick's work Christmas party and presentation night and another suprise. Rick recieved this for a new parenting program he introduced to the prison.

And Christmas, which for me was one of the most relaxing one's I've had in a long time.


Lots of present opening.


Far to much food.


Loads of fun.




Nurf Guns were a hit this year.

Well the trees packed away, along with the decorations. All evidence, bar the extra kilos and the odd Christmas chocolate stocking remanents, are gone.


But I'm sure, if last year is anything to go by, Christmas 2010 will be knocking on our doors before we know it.



Some Creating got done in December too!!!
I shared this on Wednesdays Wishes blog as well as here. The pressie I made for Teresa in the Arty Oz Christmas Swap.










Most of the items used to create this canvas are available at Click here to visit.
Visit the Blog for more detailed of the supplies used.

Happy New Year. May 2010 be a happy and safe one for you and your family. Don't forget to nuture the Creative Goddess within.

Pre Xmas

Well I'm finally starting to feel a little relaxed about Christmas preparations. Still got to do the grocery shop and a couple of small pressies. I hope you're not to stressed and your plans are falling into place.

Schools done for Locky for 2009, so excited, Love school holidays, his teacher did recieve a homemade pressie, even if it was made a the last minute and I may have cheated just a little bit ;0) - only a little though.
I raided the shelfs at Wednesdays Wishes and made up one of the Christmas Tree kits. So only a bit ;0)




Now I just got to make one for myself,,,,,maybe in time for next Christmas ;0)

I joined a 1 for 1 Christmas present Swap on Arty Oz and recieved an Art Doll fridge magnet form Bevlea (hope you don't mind me sharing)




I love the little details she added.




And these beautiful hand made Beads


Thanks so much Bevlea for my lovely present.

Happy Creating and Enjoy the Merriment of the Season!!
