Paschar my Rottweiler!!!

Hey everyone

I just wanted to share some pictures of my gorgeous furbaby Paschar (pronounced like Marsha but with a P) Pasch is a purebred Rottweiler and her kennel name is Nightsail Calais Paschar (sounds kinda whymsical doesnt it!). You may remember her from this POST when she was 8 weeks old! Well she is 12 months old this month and she is absolutely huge but equally gorgeous! She weighs around 36 kg and is one huge sook!

Out in the backyard!

 Looking up at me!

and with Pete my Husband!

Pasch keeps me company when my husband is away up north for work and loves nothing better than being by my side where ever I go she even sits in front of the toilet door waiting for me! Paschar has got such a lovely nature and everyone that meets her falls in love with her! I would have to say that The Rottweiler is my favourite breed and I am one lucky girl to be owned by such a noble and beautiful breed!

Bye for now!

12x12 Medallion Scrapbooking Page

Hi there all

I have a new favourite Stamp - MEDALLION!!! I am absolutely in love with this background stamp. I created this page to show off this fab new stamp!

I chose to use Kraft 12x12 cardstock, Chocolate Chip and Tempting Turquoise cardstocks dont those colours just look delicious together! I decided to use chocolate chip ink and threw in a bit of silver hodgepodge and chocolate chip ribbon! and of course that beautiful Medallion Background and Warm Words stampset. 

I love using black and white photos they just go with everything and look great. The picture was taken on my wedding day with my gorgeous bridesmaids Lizz, Danni & Amy. Ahhh almost 3 years ago gosh time flys!!!

Enjoy!

Baby Shower card

My friend held a baby shower recently in fact Im pretty sure she will be having her baby any day now! We had a fun day of playing baby orientated games including not being able to say BABY for the entire day which was quite hard! You got given 4 pegs to start with and evey time someone caught you out you had to give them one of your pegs. I said baby once and lost a peg but gained it back when I caught someone else out. One lady had pegs all over her and won she had a great ear for it!

Anyways I made a card for the lucky mum to be! I thought the sweet treat cups would be perfect so here it is!

I colours I used were Pretty in Pink & Certainly Celery. Sweet Treat Cups, Something Sweet (retired) & Greetings Eight Stampsets, Winter Bright Simply Scrappin Kit (retired), Soft Subtles Buttons (retired) and Whisper White Ribbon.

I also made matching wrapping paper with umbrellas stamped all over.

New Look!!!

Well happy midnight everyone....

I am pleased to present my new look blog. I haven't been happy with the look of my blog for a long time and was cruising around the net earlier this year and found an awesome website run by the fabulous Michelle Laycock. (click on her name to see her website)I was really impressed with what I saw and knew that I needed to get in contact with Michelle and get her to save my blog! I showed her what style I was after and we emailed back and forth till she came up with what you see here. I think it really shows my personality to a tea and with matching buttons, watermarks and a new signature. I am loving my new look! So thanks a bunch Michelle I am thrilled with what you've done *hugs*!!!

I feel all inspired and motivated (thank heavens) now and look forward to sharing more of my personal and professional creative journey! Well off to get some shut eye... Yawn!!!

Ps Ive also added a card tutorial and information for my upcoming classes click on the link above... below my header...

Amys Present

Hi everyone

Im back! Had quite a lot of soul searching to do at the start of this year... What did I want to do with my life, how do get to where I want to be, having a bit of an identity crisis aswell the usual deep and meaningful stuff. I felt bad for neglecting my blog which I do enjoy running but didnt want to come on and be a sour negative nelly so I just thought Id continue hiding in my box until I felt alright to be out in the big wide world once again! Sometimes life doesnt always go as planned and I am a bit of a routinee, schedually, planny type person so when things arent running smoothly I tend to have mini panic attacks and am bit of a pain to be around. So usually I spare the world from me being a whinny cryee idiot! So I just want everyone to know that Ive had my life temper tantrum and really need to get back to the things at hand! One of those being Creating and I kind of lost my Mojo there for a while seriously... I felt like a dryed up piece of parchment left for years with all my colour fading into oblivion. Arrrrrghhhh the unmotivatedness of it all!!! So here I am once more part of the rat race and have come on here after the much needed self assessment to post a couple of pictures of the pressie I gave my dear sister Amy for her birthday in January...

Now this was just a plain ole foot care pack that I got at the shops and I thought it needed a bit of a spruce up. I stamped it with the Leaves a la carte wheel with black stazon and decorated with a bit of so saffron ribbon and hodgepodge hardware all of which are retired  except for the black stazon (hehehe nothing like using the stuff you cant use to demonstrate with) and I was thrilled with the outcome!

Enjoy.... Ps If any of you want to use my own jazzied up words such as...unmotivatedness or schedually feel free....

Not Stamping Related But....

Just wanted to share...

When I went over to Canberra for our Stampin' Up! Convention I also got the chance to visit with my Sweet Nanna!!! Nanna lives in Campbeltown about 2 hours from Sydney and boy did we pack a lot into the three day I was there!!!

So here is just a few of the places we went to....

This picture was taken of the Lotus Fragrance Pavillion Over Water in the Chinese Garden of Friendship in Darling Harbour. This place was awe inspiring it was so beautiful and if you paid $10 you got to dress up in traditional Chinese clothes and walk through the garden and get your picture taken! Like these people below how awesome is that!!!

We also went to see the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House which I hadnt seen since I was 13 I was thrilled to see it again...

Isnt it awesome!! Hey Mr Seagul get out of my picture your ruining the view LOL!

and of course the opera house which is MASSIVE!

(the bridge is to the left of this picture)

We also went through Hyde Park in the heart of of Sydney here is the massive fountain they have in the middle of the park.

We also went to Bowral the gorgeous little town I was born in...

This picture is typical of Bowral these gorgeous trees are everywhere. Its just so pretty! Bowral is situated between Canberra and Sydney I drove through it on my way through to Sydney from Canberra then drove back my last day before I flew back to Perth.

I even visited the hospital they took my mum to. I was born two and a half months premature and only weighed in at 1.8kg (3 pounds 9 ounces in the old scale) They thought I was gonna die and Christened me but I survived. What my poor Mother must have gone through!

Well that was just a small snapshot of my time over East as I took over 650 photos all up (thanks for being so patient Nanna)

I wish I could show them all to you
