I've also used a selection of number stamps & christmas stamps


{days 1-3 }



Stazon Ink & transparency film to make my own transparencies....i really enjoy making my own.



{ days 4 - 6 }



I've used quite a bit of calico, to stamp my day numbers on....and of course machine stitching...

 I also made up a simple page with boarders and the name of the day on microsoft word....I've kept the size simple this year A4. 

  Last year I made the album cover, think it was 6"x 8" and it wasn't a good size for me.

 This year I just picked up a A4-2 ring binder from Officeworks

It's kraft covered so I can still add some special touches...which I did today and it looks pretty darn special....can't wait to show you but not yet...

 Busy week....McKenzie's sports carnival

Hugo celebrated his 5th birthday
 Don't you love icecream cake.....no cake crumbs

{ My Baby turns 5 }

On the scrap front...

                        I won a subscription to Miss Arts Papercrafting School which I know will be very awesome...I've done a few of the free classes and they are fabulous!!!!

 Also another wonderful thing has happened but that's hush! hush!!! atm

ok time to go....I can't wait for December to hit now I'm done on my DD foundation pages...I'll share some more in a few days
