Catch up post

With all that has been happening here I have been a forgetful blogger but with dancing concert, Asher's birthday and Christmas out of the way I may just get back on track. Here is a bit of a photo share of what has been happening.

Asher's birthday sleepover.

Seeing as she was dancing on her actual birthday we had her sleep over party the weekend before. Here are the girls all having fun on the trampoline out back.

And this one I took when we went up to the new playground at Kings park.

They all had a great time and I was exhausted. Asleep at 11.30 and up at 5.30 the next morning.

Dance concert windup.

Showing of her new charm on her I did  great job bracelet. My little Missy gets a little disappointed that she tries her best and at the end of the year doesn't get trophies or medals like the other girls so I started up the charm bracelet for her but seeing as she most probably will not be dancing next year we don't call it her dancing bracelet any more.

Dance concert.

All dressed and ready to go. I even managed to get glitter on her eyes. Amazing what bribery will do. She now has a Monster high doll she had been wanting for a while. The first of many I bet.

Birthday.

Opening up one of  her pressies at 5.00 in the morning. There was no chance she was going to wait any longer. 

We had two dance concerts that day, a lunch time one and a night time one. In between we came home for a rest and took some photos out back of our birthday girl. Here is one of the three of us.

Christmas day.

Well I just realized that the few photos I took are still on the camera but will share them once I get them of it.

Scrapping wise this is what I have to share.

Bah Humbug banner.

The photo isn't all that clear so have added in a close up.

A friend of mine's favorite saying at Christmas is Bah humbug and I have made this up for her with some of my Purple Onion stamps.

Late 1800's script background.

Homegrown alphabet.

Labelers.

It's a yellow Christmas.

Created as part of a showcase over at Scrap Therapy. Photo was taken on the driveway out front all covered in the yellow flowers from next doors tree.

Well if you have stuck around for all of this thanks.

Friday night reveal time.

I've been a forgetful blogger again. Sorry. Here are my sketch and card samples for the challenges over at Scrap Therapy. There is no need to rush as they all run over into January so there is still heaps of time to get your scrap on.

I've been a bad blogger.

With every thing that has been happening out here with all the end of year dance stuff, getting ready for Asher's birthday and christmas as well as sorting out some personal issues I have been a forgetful blogger so here is a bit of a catch up on what I have been creating.

Just scrap booking. 

I have been a part of the JS crowd for a few years now as both a teacher and a design team member and it was sad to hear that Jordie had decided to close down the store. Thanks for all the happy memories and laughs girls. You will be missed heaps. Here are the last few pages that I did for them.

Love the hat.

This one was going to be used as a possible class in January. I love this photo of Asher with the hair band/ha that she just had to have one day when out shopping. Lucky for her it was only $4.

Pokemon for a day

This is my last design team page. Asher in her Plusie pokemon costume she made up for book week at school.

New stamps, a sale and some news.

Michele over at Purple Onion has got some new stamps to share just in time for her annual holiday sale.

Here is one of the new stamps.

There is also a new stamp designer on board with Purple Onion but you will have to pop on over to the blog to see just who that is. How cute are these christmas cups.

Can't wait to get to play with some new rubber.
