Buzz and Bloom

Just popped in to share a couple of layouts I sent off to Buzz and Bloom to apply for their dt. I have my fingers crossed because I love the Buzz and Bloom products and my goodness have you seen their new acrylics? That ‘George’ damask has my name all over it lol

The following is taken straight from their website… oh and the ‘fruit salad’, the fruit salad acrylics are so delicious…. how great would they be for all those christmas treats?… oh I can’t wait for them to start showing up in scrap shops so i can get my mitts on some.

QUOTE…”COLOUR HAS COME TO BUZZ AND BLOOM!

Head over to our album on the right to see all the products! Be sure to hop over to our main website to see each product in all colours, but for now, go ahead and feast your eyes”

And the linky link…Buzz and Bloom new products – acrylics click here

Anyway here’s Charlotte in her ice-cream trance…

and just a fun wall hanging I have in my scrap room. It has all my favourite papers (at the moment) and just little bits that make me smile. Colourful happy stuff.

Good luck today for the Melbourne Cup, I haven’t even looked at the form. Jason is heading into surgery on his arm about now. Poor bloke. So he might get to watch it through the haze of pain killers, I will get to see the cup hopefully and put on a quick mystery trifecta. I do miss watching the coverage and being at Muswellbrook Races for the day. Oh well, tomorrow my head won’t hurt… so that’s something. Have a great day!

…and I’m back from Sydney…

This is my entry for this week SYTYCS, good luck to everyone… I’m loving how this comp is getting me out of my scrap-rut.

It seems like I’ve been away a lot longer than 24hours. I stayed here..

the Menzies is an instritution in Sydney and about a central as it gets. I had the best time, even though it was a whirlwind training trip. I was there for Time Management and I learnt heaps. Missed Fred The Needle by about 10 mins. BUt i hope to get back there next week while I’m on hols. Heaps more to tell but I’m going to be late for work if I don’t move my butt NOW!!

See ya and thanks for dropping in!

When I said blogging daily…..

I just found this stuff…

You know sorta dail-y… in the day-time, well today’s a day!

Anyway… So I’m working all this long weekend, and our neighbours (about a kilometre away) had a party last night God bless them and their 10 million watt stereo! The Singleton Army Barracks have a huge fireworks celebration (well they actually have a few – one is always on the girls birthday weekend – go figure?) over the Queens birthday long weekend… guess that willl stop when we’re a republic lol… so we have a great view of those fireworks… we start to hear the load cracks and we all run out side to ooooh and ahhhh over the prettyness… It goes on for about 15 minutes… like I said it’s huge. Claire said they were sooooo cooooooool!

So there’s not much to say really. The scrap journal is getting a battering with ideas… which is great! but I cant start week 2 for SYTYCS until Ive finished two baby presents for Heidi and Karen who are two of Claire and Charlottes teachers, leaving St Patricks Kindy to have their babies. I promised myself I need to have them done before the babies arrive lol. I will show the pressies here before I wrap them,

need to get going now… here’s a pic

oh and P.S. I’m just clucky and WANT more babies… I’ve no idea who with lol! My biological clock only just started ticking lol, but it’s got one hell of a loud tock! lol Who knows whats ahead. I’m only 36 so time will tell.

Can you give me Dr. Who’s Number?

I believe he may be the only person able to help me to get the ’scrap-supplies-from-another-planet’ under control… they seem to be taking over this room.. quickly multiplying and covering the valuable space known as my scraproom/bedroom. Oh well I had Mum buy me a doorknob lock last week on her trip to Bunnings, now I know when i get home from work that no one has made me a picture on the pretty paper on the desk, Chuck is a draw-er and Claire is a cutter… makes for one messed up room… more than once I’ve come home to texta on my bedsheets and in random places in the room and my favourite pp in tiny tiny pieces on the floor.

randoms for this week

* i won a double pass to go see David Campbell et al at Jazz In The Vines (Bloody clever = Me)

* as you will see from my comments (thanks Pauline! xxx) we had an awesome class last Wednesday.. Kaiser Craft Xmas tree album at Scrapkatz in Singleton… pictures to follow when I get the problems sorted out.

* work is getting busier and crazier.. the week isnt long enough any more

oddly and apparently some ?weirdo? sent a letter last month to our office and the letter read just these words…

SUPER
DOOPER
ROOTER

What? is that about? That’s all the note had on it… My boss Salena was telling me about it today… sorry but that sort of stuff made us laugh and laugh and laugh, we had some HUGE laughs today, silly crazy hysterical laughing… red headed men Arias… I know it makes no sense but I dont want to forget that mad stuff. I have a function @ the Singleton library to help organise in the next two weeks… looking forward nervously to that.

I had to send my old Kia Mentor to heaven last week… found my engagement ring in the console while clearing all my stuff out. That car was a nightmare, but sometimes you spend so much time and money on something well, it becomes a big (annoying) part of you life. I will miss the big lemon! So long my unfaithful friend.

Speaking of unfaithfull, I somehow picked up a computer virus last month, lost most of my photos (have since recovered some of them) but now I cant seem to get any photos off my camera. So sorry for the boring text post… will try to have the issewes (Kath Day-Knight) rectified soon.

Have a great weekend everyone, I’m off fabric shopping tomorrow for bag material as I’m booked into a class next Friday with Monica Poole (bag pattern maker) Hopefully I can finish the bag and show anyone who might be interested. Cannot possibly be the new scrapping though… not with all the stuff I’ve recently bought from Memory Villa and A Million Little Things… went WAY overboard with Heidi Swapp stuff… had to have the Damask stamp though…Oh and not going to Kiwi scraps this time … kept umming and ahhhing and figured that it was a sign to give up on the idea. Nevermind… I had a great time at the last one… will have to do me for a while… anyway… toodles!
