Just been busy – you know how life gets!

I was chatting with Aussie Fiskars Ambassador Lyn Dwyer the other night in the Fiskateer Chat Room.  During the chat we were talking about our ‘creative comfort zones’ and Lyn mentioned that she had recently got into doodling on her projects, something that I’ve found difficult to just ‘take the plunge’ and do.  As a result of my admission, Lyn challenged me to make a card this week with doodling around the edges – and here is what I came up with – yes I know it’s a fairly simple go at doodling, but it’s a start!

Thanks for the challenge Lyn!

059-2A lot of cupcakes for a very Happy Birthday card!  Kaisercraft cupcake paper and SU Crazy for Cupcaks stamps.

A dragon card for something difference!  The dragon image is a freebie digi-stamp from Dustin Pike coloured with pencils & odourless mineral spirits.  I think he’s quite cute!  The cupcake/pie is actually a cupcake cut from Kaisercraft patterned paper and coloured to match the card.

The visits to the mothers have been done for another year to wish them a Happy Mother’s Day!  With us of course came the cards…and here they are.

I also used one of the ones I made for Sue as a gift wallet for my MIL.

Happy Mother’s Day to all those Mums who may read my blog and I hope you had a lovely day today.

A huge congratulations to two lovely people who were married yesterday.

137-2 Gabbie & Glen may you have a long and happy marriage together and may this be the beginning of a wonderful life full of love, happiness and many pleasant memories.

Ok, this is something very different from me to share, but it’s worth it.    He’s a very engaging speaker, very humorous and most of all, it’s a very interesting lecture.

Well worth the 20mins to watch it – seriously!

Today is a day for reflection, a day to acknowledge those who have fought for our county, fought to defend those in other countries, who are currently serving in our forces and to the families of those who were lost and those that are currently serving. We all know someone like this, most of us are someone like this. Living in a garrison city for most of my life, the military is part of everyday life here, we have soldiers deployed and returning on a regular basis, there are exercises constantly around us or involving our troops and they are an integral part of our community.  For those that fought, for those that were lost, for those that are still serving, thank you.

The Ode of Remembrance

They shall not go old as we that are left grow old,

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

And at the going down of the sun, and in the morning,

We shall remember them.

The ode is taken from a poem by the english writer and poet Laurence Binyon called “For the Fallen”.

~~Lest We Forget~~

Well my demo at Spotlight Townsville yesterday went really well, a big thanks to Joi and the team for making me feel welcome!

These are some of the samples I took along yesterday, credit for the flower design goes to Aussie Fiskars Ambassador Annette Hannigan and the other two are of my own creation!
