As part of the challenges over at Scrapbook Essentials during the weekend in celebration of National Scrapbooking Day, the first challenge was to create a card or OTP item that you could actually give - so considering I am normally a last minute sally with these
things, I whipped up a couple of cards for Mum and for Aaron's mum! It is times like these that I remember how much I love my cricut
as it makes projects likes this so easy!!!! I have actually moved my scrap space inside from the garage - with the weather definitely on the change, it is toooooo cold out there!!! We have had a couple of absolutely amazing frosts the last 3 mornings which makes getting up not a lot of fun BUT the days come out sunny and blue skyed for most of the day until about 4pm when the sun starts disappearing again! I am one of those bizarre people who actually enjoys winter - I love being cosy inside with a hot chocolate, reading my scrapbooking mags and then actually scrapbooking - during summer it's just not quite the same!!!!!
Millie is away back to school this morning, in her winter uniform which she was most excited about wearing as I think the last week or so
of last term with the bad weather, the poor thing was starting to feel the cold! Uniforms truly are the best things ever invented - no debating with children over what to wear - unlike Miss Paige who at 3 thinks that dressing in her summer dress and that is all is sufficent for the start of winter - sigh, she is a little too like her mother at times - stubborn!!!!!
Have a great day
Peace

Cute cards, Meg!
I soooo hear you on school uniforms! I love them! Haven't had to buy Ethan any clothes since he started school (apart from undies and PJs, LOL) which is fantastic. And like you, I have a 3-year-old who insists on choosing his own clothes! Right now, he will ONLY wear long-sleeved T-shirts. He wore them on stinking hot days in summer, and now he wears them on freezing cold days without a jumper or even a singlet under! He is so stubborn ... sounds like he would get along nicely with Paige ;-)
Welcome back to blogging - so far so good! Looking forward to a nice long, warm and cosy winter filled with scrapbooking!
LOOOOOVE the kiss kiss card :) yay for another blog and being able to scrap somewhere warm...... my friends tells me it is not stubborn, just determined LOL - soon i fear I shall be facing these same trials with the little moo - sigh :)
whooo hooo another day of blogging. I can see a layout about Miss Paige and her fashionista style. Oh you have to be toasty warm when you scrap and nothing beats watching some tv while you scrap.
Your cards look great Meg.... enjoy the winter weather, i know i wont!
Yeah, nothing like being snuggly inside when it's blowing a gale! Gotta love three year old girls and their dress sense...LOL!
I must say im not muchof a winter fan, I do love my fire and have it going every now and then when the nights have been a bit cool. But winter is the right weather to sit inside and scrap the day away.
