Holidays are here again

But last week I had so many projects to get done and so much work to be done for Scrapping Angels I didn't get a moment spare to spend with the kids. Thank God for awesome Grandma's and Aunties the kids didn't miss out on much. Grandma took them to the movies for me!!! as that is one thing we always do in the holidays and I was sorry to be so busy that I couldn't take the week off to be with them. The best Auntie in the world had them over for a night, they always love that and it took lots of pressure off me to get projects finished off. The dinners were very ordinary and very late!??!!? But with the amazing family I have they were all very understanding. They have all been good at helping keep the 'messes' down to a minimum as well. Thank Goodness cause the house would be a disgrace other wise. lol.

After the extraordinary busy week last week, I spent the weekend doing my Pencil Lines sketches?!?!!? Yes sketches plural as we have a very exciting month coming up here's all the goss....................

Cool Huh!?!?!? I'm not always able to get sketches done every week anymore, since starting Scrapping Angels time is very tight and getting into the swing of running a business has taken some time. Which is also how I spent much of my time over the weekend, ordering products for our up coming kits as well as stock for our Retreat. But I feel great now, I have finished all the work and this week is all about the kids. Starting with a trip to the pool very soon. Then tomorrow we are having breakfast with my Dad and then it's off to the movies!!!! Yay love the holidays!!!! It's supposed to be very warm, weather wise this week. So I think a lovely trip to the park or gardens is in order. I would love some recent photos of the kids, especially the older boys, it has been a while.

Well this is turning into a mammoth post so I'll finish off now with my Pencil Lines layout for today. I'm really thrilled with how it worked out, I love it actually......

I have used Basic Grey papers and alphabet stickers from the Mellow range. American Craft Rubons as well as some felt flowers. A bit of ribbon and cardboard box. The title Rubon is from Daisy D's and the letter is Chip Chatter from Pressed Petals. The Brilliant 'tree' is from Remember When and I have painted it with Twinkling H2O's.
