The next is my first double layout in ages. I finished it last night. I had been wanting to do a double with these photos for a while!

Other news......the scrapbooking courses I have designed for a TAFE have been approved and are starting in the September Holidays!! Yea!!!!

I have a scrapping class this weekend with Mandy at Scraptacular in Mentone. I do not normally attend classes however we are making that beautiful 'Castle Album' that I have seen other bloggers make and it is just divine!! Mandy and I also have a retreat with Scraptacular the weekend of the 7th September, which we are REALLY looking forward to! Should be fun.

Last weekend was a quiet one......went shopping with mum to Werribee on Saturday and finally replaced my hagged boots and other work shoes! I'm loving my new boots! Then Saturday night Clint and I went to a engagement party. Sunday I pottered round the house, not doing much at all......visited some family......and procrastinated the day away!

Thats bout it.........but before I go......................

Charm nominated me as a Rockin Girl Blogger!!!
I think I am probably one of the last to get this! I will tag some Bons Girls- Rachael, Narelle and if you have not done it and are reading this I tag YOU!!

All you gotta do is tag three more people you think are Rockin' bloggers!!

Nothing interesting...

Well I do not have anything interesting to say really..... :o)

Last Wednesday was JRock, by the end of the day I swore I did not want to see another hairbrush, makeup or hairspray ever again! What a huge day it was! But fantastic! Our school did quite well and the kiddies had a ball!

The weekend was quiet. Clint and I went on a date to dinner and the movies which was lovely. We saw 'Knocked Up', it was HILARIOUS!!! Sooo funny!

On Sunday I met Carmen in town to catch up for coffee. I bought some PJs and thermals (how exciting!) and also the new Regina Spektor CD, I'm liking it too!

Scrapping wise, I have popped my head into a few new forums the last couple of weeks......its good and I love all the challenges different sites set, however, I find if I put the pressure on myself to scrap a bunch of challenges, it limits my creativity........its basically like I hit a wall! ahhh....I dont like it!

Ok well here are some pages!

The first is for the August 123 challenge. The challenge was to use green material, I used felt, sewing and something old. My something old is some MM trims I have in my stash.

Next two pages are pages for the recent Scrap Therapy Cybercrop

Well not much else to say........I'm still behind on a few scrapping things, but at the moment, I am really wanting to scrap for enjoyment, not because I have a challenge I want to enter :o) I still do love challenges though!

Fiona! I am glad to see you are back blogging! :o)

Thats all for me, I'll post again when I have something interesting to say or show!

Take care
