I'm launching my new Gallery next week...

I am so excited because I have been working so hard on the forum changeover and it has been so time consuming but at the same time I have been working on a new Gallery for Scrapchat and I think it's almost ready. I can't wait as there will be no more looking through the Showcase Thread to find that lo that Lynnie did or the one that Chelle did if you know what I mean.

You will now be able to click on there name and bring up all of there lo's with the click of a button.

It should be ready on Monday so keep your fingers crossed.

Wish me luck.

It's tomorrow, it's tomorrow...

I am so excited, I am going to Warana tomorrow. It seems like we have waited forever for this to get here as we planned it way back after our last retreat. We are all going to have so much fun and I am actually going to get to meet a couple of new people that I haven't met before.

I am all packed ready to load my car full of my scrap goodies and I know it's going to be chocha.

Will see you all when I get back, I hope everyone has a good weekend.

Woo hoo, only 3 days to go until Warana

It's almost time for my next retreat and I am so excited and can hardly wait, I get to go away with all these lovely girls again.

Last retreat we went to Mt Tamborine and we had so much fun singing, scrapping, chatting and drinking.

Actually I didn't get to much scrapping done at all but it was still fun.

So I will keep you posted as to what we get up to this time.

Been Digi Scrapping again...

I've been doing a little bit of Digi Scrapping again using the free Twinkle Toes Kit from Peppermint Creative. I have also used a little robot graphic which I found in my Photoshop Elements 5.0 program.

This is a photo of my godson Jack, taken when he was only 1 year old. Jack is now a healthy 4 year old after being diagnosed with Cancer at the age of only 3 months.


He is doing just fine and is passing his annual checkups with flying colours.

Here's one of Chelle taken at Scrapmanda's Girls Night In. The kit is from Cottage Arts

Here's one of my Grandma, god bless her. She turns 88 next year.

"You Make Me Smile Award"

I saw this on another blog and wanted to pinch the idea rather than wait for it to hit our shores.

It's a "You Make Me Smile Award" and I have decided to nominate Chelle, ScrapperMaz, Lexie, Ness & Scrapmanda as Blogger's who make me smile.

So copy the award and nominate another five Blogger's who make you smile and I hope that somewhere along the line someone nominates me lol.

Yeah they are here...

The Scrapchat T-shirts have finally been delivered and all the girls are so excited about getting there's. Can't wait to see these on you all.

I so love this wig!!!!

I did this lo quickly last night, I don't really like scrapping myself but I just love this wig so much. It is perfect hair, apart from the colour maybe but it just stays in place all day.


This kit is the Scrap Pink Mini Kit from Designer Digitals and also some elements from Two Peas in a Bucket and also Peppermint Creative.

I love this woman....

Isn't she just the most amazing woman who ever lived, so elegant and graceful. I love this woman, hence the name of my blog.

Just a short tribute to the late, great Audrey Hepburn.

You might need to mute the sound on my slideshow first.

Vintage Lace Online Class....

Ok here is another one from me that I completed yesterday, it is from the Vintage Lace Online Class at Scrapbook N Bits. I messed it up a little but I am still happy with the result.

Just a quick one from me today...

Couldn't really sleep tonight so I just quickly put this together using the 'Twinkle Toes' kit from Peppermint Creative. I hope you like it...

This layout is of my Mum's cousins granddaughter and it really suits her personality.
