A long post with some layouts to share...

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to stop by my blog {big hugs} I have so much to share, i've been busy scrapping all weekend and here are my layouts..

Feeding the Ducks:

I went to spotlight this morning actually and brought these American Craft Papers having in mind the photos i wanted to scrap. The inspiration for this layout came from Krissy as i used one of her sketches from CISter's Stylish Sketches Blog. I had so many photos and i didnt know what to do with them all! So.. I made a little tab and hid them in the layout.

Bright Blue Eyes:

I took this photo of Bella last week and thought... my little princess is growing up sooooo fast!!!! The cherry blossom branch i brought from D-Lish Scraps only $2.80! Amanda has alot of gorgeous flowers and embelishments in her store that i am constantly buying from ;)

Garden Fairy:

This layout i wanted to look vintage-like..... i'm not very good at vintage but i thought i'd give it ago.. i printed the butterflies off the computer which i think work so effective! The chipboard flowers are from Mad About Scrapping! i love Leanne's chipboard!!

Making Muffins:

Lastly, Isabella was helping nanny make some muffins on her day off and couldnt resist getting the camera out. I made the little cupcake/muffin tops out of different pp and the base i used from the kasier pp sugar sugar.

Moving to other news now.... One of my layouts is in this months issue of Scrapbooking Memories!!! Vol 12 No 5 page 102. My layout Love Birds appears in the Love Gallery. As i was so very excited to see my work being published for the first and only time, i was upset as to which layout it was.. it was one of myself and ex fiancee who i now hate... Seeing photos of us brought back alot of bad memories... ALSO.. i wanted to congratulate my good friends Belynda {Our Love Continues to Grow pg 82} and Chris {Outdoor Boy pg 131} who's layouts were also published in the same issue!

Thank You so much for stopping by my blog i really appriciate it. Let me know of any friendly forums or challenge blogs that i can take part in :)

Love Rach

Dolly's adventure at the park

This is my latest layout! I haven't done many double layouts but i had so many photo's!! instead of journalling, i wanted the photos to tell the story!! Isabella takes her dolly everywhere, it's too cute!! She even made her dolly 'walk' up the stairs to the slide hehe. I used the bright colours on the playground for inspiration and used bright colours in these layouts :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog xxoxx

Some new layouts to share..

These photos were taken late last year and i have finally had the chance to scrap them! It was a very good day with my precious daughter!
This layout include photos from isabella's 2nd birthday! she loves birthdays and singing "happy birthday" and blowing the candles!!

Thanks for stopping by, A very Happy Mothers Day to all my dear friends who are mummy's :)

Izzy's 2nd birthday

So many photos were taken from Isabella's party i thought i would include the main ones into one layout! I wanted it to be bright and colourful! Very different to my scrapping style!
Isabella had a tinkerbell themed party. It was great fun!! I made the cake!! Everything is made out of icing except the tinkerbell figurines! I had alot of help from a friend of mine who is a cake decorater. i dont think i could have done it without her! i was really happy with the finished result.Here is a family photo taken from isabella's birthday. I love the little birds :)
