Different kinds of babies.

Did you know there were different kinds of babies?  Well, there are.

The other day, Miss 6 asked me, "What kind of baby was I, Mum?"

I was a little confused, but answered with the general kind of baby description, "tiny, cute, with little fingers and sweet little toes and a squished up nose".

That wasn't what she was asking at all ... No ... "What KIND of baby, Mum, you know, was I a summer baby or a winter baby or spring or autumn??

Well, that explained it :-).  She was born in the spring and her arrival herald the beginning of our little family :-).  We were no longer just a couple, we were a family.

The word over at Bird Is The Word recently was Spring/Summer/Winter/Fall ... so I just had to record this little conversation :-)

Can you spy the cute little triangle badge by Greatest View in there?  Totally loving her goodies at the moment ... I've used heaps lately :-) ...  The twine on this page is from there as well :-).


So, what kind of baby were you? 

PS.  Thanks for visiting, hope you are having a great week!

Playing catch up

I've still got a pile of layouts here I haven't shared, so I must keep blogging them :-).  Time flies by so fast these days, I'm sure the clocks are speeding up.

 This is number 4 and 5 of our Do Or Die competition over at Scrapz.   The whole comp was so much fun!   I certainly had to put my thinking cap on ;-).

Notes for Mum

Hidden journaling or hidden elements in general is not something I do much in scrapping.   This Do or Die challenge over at Scrapz called for 'something hidden' ...


And I had this sweet envelope ....


So I tucked in some cards, notes and drawings from my kids :-)
I've always wanted to include something like this on a page! Just needed the prompting

I used the gorgeous Crate Paper Pretty Party range for this page :-) Just love these colours :-)

Now, don't forget the new competition starting next week:


Find out all the details HERE!!!

Thanks for visiting and have a great week :-)

Little moments = Big memories

Hello there!   I'm back again with another page from the Scrapz Do or Die competition.  It's been so much fun, it will be a little bit sad when it's all over!

This is my page for the second challenge... 

The pic on this page is the view from our beach holiday unit. Oh how I wish we were there right now! LOL!!


Love those Prima canvas shapes.  I've done a step-by-step using similar shapes ... check it out HERE.  {You have the chance to win a voucher if you play along!!}


I really had fun making this a 'busy' page ... lots of things happening ... lots of different embellishments.


Have a great weekend!
Thanks for visiting :-)
