what do you mean its only Autumn!!?? Seriously if you lived here you would think some days we were in the grip of the new Ice Age – I keep expecting to see this guy running around!! 
No joke. Although in between the really really cold days there have been some glimpses of what could have been – sunshine and warmth – OUTSIDE no less!! I’m grumpy because all the leaves are falling and I love Autumn but so far no autumn photos because its either raining or like yesterday so windy you cant stand straight! Yep I’m grumpy.
Now last weekend I went away to Scrap Camp in Mosgiel, Friday to Sunday of dedicated scrapbooking. I loved it – I scrapped up a storm.
Proof…
Personal favourite – using BG Porcelain range and Michelle taught me to make flowers 
Woohoo I am so very impressed with myself. It was like I found a rhythm and I was off, stopping only for the delicious snacks supplied and the meals that provided much needed energy – and oh my the meals were scrumptious!!
This paper was hugely popular – and the ribbon scrunching was a hit with everyone having a go at some stage lol. Great to meet you Bev .aka. Bubbles 
The camp itself was just beautiful, what a peaceful wondrous spot – loved it!
Then I came home and was sick for a week!! Hows that for karma – lol. I have had the cold that is male – it lingers!! Hung on and is drove me nuts. I’m at the stage where I feel 95% but would love to be able to talk without throwing a few coughy coughs in there.
I hope everyone had a great Easter and for the mums with school aged rugrats – enjoy the holidays I’m teaching Jess cross stitch and I scored a cheap laptop for Josef to make his own, but biggest score is my sister is coming down on Thursday for a whole week!!
Ohhhh the sun is out today and its supposed to get up to 19 degrees…
till next time…
