Along with a Project Life Core Kit, she also has put out mini kits that are to die for, packs for 4x4 cards, embellishments, binders...the lot! And it is all devine!! So grateful for these talented designers around that make documenting our life adventures and stories so much fun!

Clique Kits September Blog Hop

Clique Kits Pep Rally take 2! Capture..What a fun kit..absolutely LOVED the textured card and crepe paper!! I wouldn't normally be one to stick black bits of paper into my pages but WOW, awesome. Loved it. I'll be using more of it and tracking down more crepe paper too. And of course the pink played a major part! You'll find one of these pages in their 'anything goes' challenge also. Enjoy the blog hop!

Love this tag! Sewn and gathered crepe paper- so effective!

Close up of a fun corner!

Jot's September Mood Board

September..already!?! Next month my newborn turns 1..seriously..where have those months gone!!! Anyhow.. our little family took a holiday for two weeks which was just magical. I have been a bit quiet on here as a result..but a lot of exciting things have been in the making..first off- If you haven't read Issue 11 of Jot's Magazine, you should really take a moment to have a look. Kim has done a fantastic job putting this together and there is SO much inspiration and talent! And very exciting..one of my spreads is in there (check out Page 189)!!! I was absolutely blown away and feel so honored.

So then it brings us to Jot's September Mood Board...very delish..pink/red/blue..how can you go wrong!?! I have to say.. my page inspired by this mood board is one of the first in a LONG time that doesn't have any gold on it. Slightly obsessed with gold so was challenging not to put a splash of gold on there! It's a simple page, but I still love it!

Clique Kits August Pep Rally

Soooo excited to have received my first ever Clique Kit. I could hardly wait for my girls to go down for their naps so I could get playing. And once I started..it was hard to stop!! So it was only fitting that being my first kit, that I also join in on my first Pep Rally! Hip hip hooray! 

What gorgeous colours in the kit...and while I would have used up the entire kit..we have a holiday coming up in Rarotonga so want to keep some of these goodies to scrap photos from there as they are just PERFECT summer colours and embellies! But a taste of this months Ambrosia Kit with the 'anything goes' challenge...

Hope you're having a great time hopping...here's the list..try and get along and see all the other amazing designs using Clique Kits Ambrosia Kit..

August Mood Board along at Jot

Having two little girls in our house, we are SURROUNDED by pink...so I LOVED working with these blues for a change (potentially should have printed in B&W to remove the pink clothes!lol!)...Inspired by Jots August Mood Board and as Clique Kits has an 'anything goes' challenge..this seems the perfect fit for that too ;-)

Coffee group...a favourite time of the week!

Our coffee group has been together for over two years now! So awesome! Such an amazing group of ladies and the little tikes have become good friends! And we even have 'new editions' to the group! Hooray for our first babies becoming big sisters and big brothers! Oh how time flies! Today we had coffee group at our place, and with the sun shining, it was a perfect day to get the water table out! The kids had a blast! Our little bubbas also had a ball kicking around on the floor, holding hands and smiling at each other! Such precious moments... And while this photo of spread hasn't turned out perfect as I struggled with lighting/shadows..must go by a big piece of white card to lay my pages onto to photograph (or open to any other tips on getting a good photo!).., I still want to share it in the Clique Kits and Southern Girls 'anything goes' challenges :-)
