All Together Now… a New Kit
Well yes it’s been a while hasn’t it everyone, I’m so sorry I haven’t blogged in a while.
I have a new kit to show you all and also some exciting news at the Studio.
Firstly I’ll tell you all about the great things happening over at the Studio. WE now have a commercial use store, everything in this store has been quality checked and approved, nothing gets into the CU Store at the Studio unless it has passed our Quality Testing.
Plus it’s nearly that time again, September is always buzzing at the studio as it’s our Birthday Bash time and you know what that means, the next Designer Competition is nearly here. Come on over to the forum and sign up for this year’s designer competition it’s soo much fun you will learn heaps and you will make tons of like minded friends who love to scrap and design. So come on give it a go, you’ll never know if you don’t try.
Check out the Sign Up thread here
Firstly here is my newest kit “All Together Now”
full of lots of pretty elements and soft textured papers this kit will fill any girly page with delight.
Check out the previews for closer inspection.
Included in this kit are 13 papers and 40 elements including:
bows, flowers, scattered glitter, glittery butterflies, buttons, a clock, beads, a tag created with Moon Design’s fabulous tag shapes (thanks Tan) Sting, an envelope, pins, natural extracted elements, frames, stitching, lace, photo corners, all in pretty hues of pinks with a touch of brown.
all elements and papers created at 300 ppi for optimum print quality.
See our commercial use store for matching cu glitter styles, patterns and sheets in one set.

I plan on doing some clusters to put in the store too as well as of course a freebie or two, so check back soon for those.

In Other News…
My little green daewoo finally died and we had to get me a new car on the weekend. I picked it up yesterday and it’s a dream so far.
We got a Nissan Tiida in gunmetal grey and it’s quite a change having power steering and reverse sensors and lots of other gizmos in my car. I am taking a little while to get used to all the features and driving and parking it but I am sure it will all come the more I drive it
It did sap a lot of our savings though so Hubby will be working overtime to try and get us back up in our savings. Poor Sweetness!!
But he does have a super happy and grateful wife
Okay off to get ready for my chat
Have a great week all

Anzac Day 2010
Yesterday was our 6th Wedding Anniversary.
It was a quiet day, Michael had worked the night before so slept most of it and in the evening we ended up not going out for dinner even, he looked just way too tired for an outing. So we had bacon, eggs and chips for dinner LOL. Not real romantic but quite yummy.
Happy Anniversary My Sweetness. Can’t believe it’s already been 6 years, where do the years go?
I made the Card I gave Michael with some pics from the ceremony on our big day
This is the Photoshop file
And Here is the created card
My photo was a bit dark as it is quite miserable here today so I had to lighten it, that’s the only reason the color of the paper isn’t quite right.
I may have to visit my friend “The Gamut warning tool” with the paper I used
_______________________________________
It’s ANZAC day here in Australia, this is our Memorial Day for those who have defended our country in Action. Most of you will know my father was an Army Warrant Officer and I am very proud of all he did while he was in the British and Australian Defence Forces.
As I do each year since I created this mini for the SAS Next SAS-y Lady Designer Competition, here is the remembrance kit I created. It’s more Americana than Australian but I am sure a lot of American Scrappers could put it to good use
Here’s a few pages I did with pics of my Dad using this kit, they are from a few years ago. When I made the kit



Thanks for reading and have a great weekend

New Kit Lavender Green
I have a new kit instore at the Studio.
Lavender Green was inspired by that old song… You know the one
- Lavender’s blue, dilly dilly, lavender’s green,
- When I am king, dilly, dilly, you shall be queen.
- Who told you so, dilly, dilly, who told you so?
- ‘Twas my own heart, dilly, dilly, that told me so.
- Call up your men, dilly, dilly, set them to work
- Some with a rake, dilly, dilly, some with a fork.
- Some to make hay, dilly, dilly, some to thresh corn.
- While you and I, dilly, dilly, keep ourselves warm.
- Lavender’s green, dilly, dilly, Lavender’s blue,
- If you love me, dilly, dilly, I will love you.
- Let the birds sing, dilly, dilly, And the lambs play;
- We shall be safe, dilly, dilly, out of harm’s way.
- I love to dance, dilly, dilly, I love to sing;
- When I am queen, dilly, dilly, You’ll be my king.
- Who told me so, dilly, dilly, Who told me so?
- I told myself, dilly, dilly, I told me so.
Freebies to come of course
Happy Valentine’s Day

Wow I’m busy this week
Well the chat room at the Studio (formerly SAS) went on it’s maiden voyage on Monday (US time) and I held a chinese whispers crop, we all chatted and scrapped at the same time, each person in the chat room taking their turn in giving us an item to add to our pages. And wow some great layouts came out of that scrap
Here are some of them

This is my layout from the whispers crop chat

Also we are having a progressive scrap again. This challenge is such a hit at special events that we have decided to make it a permanent fixture at the studio. And wow I am hosting this challenge this month and there are 33 members playing so far! and they have really risen to the challenge. Check out the gallery to see their pages evolve and grow.
The studio January Mega Kit “snow Games” is the kit we are using pieces from for this challenge and the winner of the poll to be posted at the end of the challenge will win this full kit, and all the participants will receive a $1.00 coupon for the Studio store. How cool is that?!!
