Slack blogging attack....

Hello...hello scrappy friends,

So sorry I've been just a little slack on the blog front.

I have been scrapping and creating but some of it has been secret squirrel stuff....shhhhh!
I've also been trying to get back into going to the gym and getting the house sorted...(cough!)

 Firstly here is my CT layout for Craftqueen for the month of May...(May can you believe it!!!! Almost half way through the year, again..... the good think about that is it's almost Brisbane Expo time again...yippeeeee!!!!!

Criteria.....the word TODAY...kraft...and distressing
my take...



 I've used a real mix of elements for this layout....stamping, stitching, misting. Also used some great washi tape Black & White- Chevron, from Craftqueen, Nicole has some fabulous designs available in store. The Prima lace trim is also becoming a fav of mine.
 The alpha's I've used are from Twiddleybitz and the zigzag element is from their awesome chicken mesh...which I've sort of chopped a bit to fit my layout.
 The oval label holder thingy is from kaiserkraft and the gorgeous butterfly is cut from some Tim Holtz ink resist kraft paper.


Have I told you how much I LOVE my Dad.... He served for 18 months in Vietnam....I cannot even imagine the things he has seen? He very rarely talks about that time of his life...
 He came home injured and still has shapnel in his shoulder...he also had some in his knee until he had a knee replacement a few years back...
 I am so very proud of my father, he is the greatest man ever.....xxxx


 Okay....back to Brissie talk....
 I'm pretty excited...( the only not-so-good thing about Brissie is that Miss Mary isn't going with us...boo....sob!)
 I s'pose Mary will be with us in other ways...hehehehehe!!!!!! ( Miss Annette & I have plans....)

 Very excited to be helping in a CRAFTQUEEN classroom...Yay!!!!!
and tad excited that TIM HOLTZ is going to be there as well,.... SUPER YAY!!!!

  Shall also be catching up with some of my old buddies from...like 20 years ago....darn!! now that makes me feel a bit old..
 Paulette...Darren and Troy, so can't wait....

  Okay Beautiful People time for this little black duck to head to bed and catch some zzzzz's
Off to the hairdressers in the morning...hope she can help...'cause DANG! I sure need it????

  So don't forget if you get the chance, please play along with us over at CRAFTQUEEN, just create your card or layout and then email it to


you could win $30 worth of beautiful ribbons...and believe me there are some stunning ribbons..

Cheers Kim x
