My Life. The Blogable Bits.

I have decided to be brave!
I am going to start tallying up my scrapbooking purchases.
*gulp*

$10
$8

total $18

So I realised (after looking at Linda’s blog) that I havent posted anything about my scrapping!

About 4 years ago a good friend of mine, Justine, was on mat leave from work. SHe came in one day and asked if I wanted to go to an album party.
“Oh ok, albums huh?” Thinking MUSIC albums…..
But she set me straight by telling me it costs $10 and to bring 6-8 photos.
Ooohhhh a PHOTO album party! DER!

It all snowballed from there.

I had never been particularly creative at school so I really dont know why it appealed to me that much….

So I have countless photos in countless albums and I remember almost every single layout I have done. I love my albums and I hope my kids will appreciate them too and their kids and so forth.

I am lucky to be on two design teams for online shops.
The first is www.memorybugs.com.au. This is a great community. I love it there and you will see there everyday!
The second one is www.scrappindreams.com.au. This is also a great site. I am there everyday aswell……

I have a blog!!! Hmmm I wonder if I will keep this up? Probably not………..

And without further ado……

I have once again become addicted to www.twopeasinabucket.com.
The layouts posted there really appeal to me and the message boards crack me up! I cant believe the catfights in the boards!!! ROFLMAO!!!! Too funny.
Anyway I had been seeing all these “Effer Dares” and thought the layouts were awesome. Really expressive. Not just your standard old BoM pages either. These are deep. I thought – where do I find these dares?!?! Well lucky for me they have their own blog now. So once a week I will *try* to complete the dare. I have put a link on the side to the Everything Effer blog.
Happy Scrappin’!

I still cant believe that we are *finally* going to do it!
Talk about a spur of the moment thing. As a scrapbooker I wish I had taken note of the day that DF said “when we are at Nambucca do you wanna get married?”. Oh well I can always just pick a day – no one but me will know….
