My wedding present.....

My husband got a car, but I got my dream camera....always wanted to get into photography and have managed for years with a point and shoot. Now I have the latest Canon Rebel 550D (it's called something different in the US). My hope is to get good enough for a planned trip to the US next year, just can't wait to photograph the Grand Canyon :)

My "New" Husband's wedding present...

This is what I 'joke' that I bought my "new" husband for a wedding present.......... he doesn't care, just so happy that I was happy for him to buy this.....his dream car 1969 Mach 1 GT Mustang....they would be popular over there in the US, but here in Australia they are still fairly rare....so we turn quite a few heads when we go out.

Baby card for Myles...

Made this card for my new husbands cousin. We just got to meet him now he's 8 months old. I was so please with how this turned out...oh just love the embossed background, just over the moon that Cuttlebug folders are now coming out in 5 x 7!!!!!!!!

Here's a album I made for everyone to sign at the baby shower and now I can add photos to the blank pages that were left over...






Used Papertrey stamps all over the project. I was so happy to get this 8 x 8 album on special for $2.50!!! and the "baby girl" on the cover is bling...that was already on it too!! I found the refills for this album selling for $3.50...wow

Baby shower decorations....

Here is the lounge room that I decorated with words cut from my Cricut Expression and baby clothes that were my daughters and her husbands too.....









I brought the first pair of shoes to the baby shower and my son in laws mother did the exact same thing with her son's shoes.....no we didn't even talk about it! They looks so cute sitting together.
