Lip Gloss Lover

My DD is obsessed with lip gloss! She has to apply it herself and thinks it is the coolest thing to do in the whole world. I snapped these pics as she was playing with my Mum's lip gloss...

My everything

This was a professional photograph taken of Grace about 6 months ago. I kept the layout quite simple so that it didn't detract anything from the beautiful piccie!

"My everything"

A layout made using Kathy Moore's, "New Sundress kit".

Shine like a star

I was selected to be a Guest CT member for Kathy Moore! It is a three month term and I am super excited. This is my first layout using one of her cool kits.

This is Gracie and her beautiful curls. I just love the way that they fall on her face.

My Debut kit - "Coral Kisses Collection"




This is a preview of my very first attempt at designing digital products. It is titled the "Coral Kisses Collection". It is a bright and fun kit that has been smooched with a coral kiss. The colours remind me of my snorkelling adventures in the Great Barrier Reef, QLD. Available for purchase at addictedtodigital.com. Check it out HERE! Please browse below for sample layouts using this kit!

"Full of wonder" - CT layout



Sandy, my CT gal designed this cute layout using my Coral Kisses Collection. Sandy stated that Colton was being silly and placed a swim nappy on his head. Her journalling states, "2 years old and full of wonder. All of the new adventures that are ahead. All of the memories yet to be created. All of the journeys that we will go on. We will share them all together..."

"Move that Bus!" - CT layout



Keela, a CT member at Digital Freebies created this wonderful layout using my "Coral Kisses" Collection. Keela's journaling states: "Anything that has wheels, you have to sit on! When you climbed onto this toy bus, I grabbed the camera as fast as I could! Now, if only you could...move that bus!"

"4 months" - CT layout



Claudia, my CT gal designed this super sweet layout using my Coral Kisses Collection. She states, "This picture is the 1st page of a 2 page layout using Amanda's awesome kit. This is my son, 2 days from being 4 months old. Journaling says that and also that with each day that passes we love him more and more. I also wrote about the bracelet that he is wearing - which is a Salvadorian tradition and is the same that his big brother got from my Father in Law."

"Jump"- CT layout



Maria LaFrance, a CT member at Digital Freebies designed this awesome layout with my Coral Kisses kit. She states, "My nephew on the obstacle course. He of course had to leap into the air to slide down the slide...boys! I used Amanda Miller's new kit Coral Kisses, the bright colors were perfect for these photos!"

"The need for speed" - CT layout



My CT gal, Cara Barrett designed this super cool layout with my Coral Kisses Collection. She states, "These are some very blurry photos of my handsome boy, Hayden and my adorable hubby, Andrew. Taken at Dreamworld on the bumper cars (they were going so fast!) It was so funny this time as Andrew usually bumps Hayden constantly, but Hayden is a little older now, and got a bit of his own back."

"Can we fix it?" - CT layout



Marie Diaz, my CT gal designed this awesome layout with my Coral Kisses Collection. She states- "We went to Chuck E' Cheeses and Steven was so excited when he saw the tractor from "Bob the builder". We spent quite a few tokens on this very short ride."

Girls in the Hood!



This is my Sister and DD together, sharing some last minute cuddles before my sister departed Australia for the US & Canada! She will be away for nearly a year and she was quite upset when she had to say goodbye to Grace. These photos were taken so spontaneously and turned out perfectly... Credits-My Debut kit titled, "Coral Kisses" {by Amanda Miller}. It is available HERE!

Swim-Fan!


This is such a cute photo of my DD. She loves handbags, necklaces and pretty girly things at the moment. This is Grace saying to me, "Mummy I am ready to go swimming now..." It was also her very first swimming lesson! Credits: My Melon-icious Quickpage.

I love you Grace...


I was inspired by Mama-to-2 to write my own handwriting and scan it onto a layout. Thanks for the inspiration... This is my DD and I enjoying many cuddles at my birthday lunch in May this year!

Life in the Fast Lane!

I have a new quickpage available and it is titled "Forever Brown". It is available HERE! It matches my "Forever Blue" Quickpage-which is my number one best seller! I love this layout of Grace. We went to a friend's farm over the Anzac Holiday. I called it, "Grace being down and dirty for three days." She loved every dirty minute of it...

Captivating Beauty


I won a competition recently at digiscrapdivas.com to name a diva. I called it "Prima Donna Diva" and it won! My prize was $50 worth of Kim Hill's cool kits. I was so excited because I love her kits... So-here is a layout created with her Jellybeans kit {available at ww.acherryontop.com}. I just love the little diamonds in the title and on top of the middle picture. These pictures really didn't look very good {would u believe?} until I cropped them! This is my new favourite layout!

The magic of milkshakes

This is Grace on my birthday 2 weeks ago enjoying the best milkshake ever. My Mum took me out for a *swish* lunch at the Fairmont Resort, Leura. We asked for a small chocolate milk {as this is Grace's favourite drink at the moment} and this is what we received... Grace loved it and finished drinking every last drop... I also made this layout for a cool sketch challenge that Tracy Blakenship organises at digitalfreebies.com. Check out her challenge here: Double Trouble Sketch Challenge with Tracy!

Quickpage Designer

I have been offered this amazing opportunity to design Quickpages using Tracy's {retrodiva} awesome kits at digitalfreebies.com. I was so excited and quickly began composing two Quickpages in one night. I am now up to ten quickpages with many more to come... Here is my latest two quickpages.

This Quickpage is titled, "Girly Mischief" after my DD was snapped making some girly mischief with some plastic numbers/letters.

This Quickpage is titled, "Boyish Mischief" and was inspired by my hubby's boyish mischief that gets passed onto my DD!

Blog Me Baby

Well, I have been wanting to do this for a while, but just never found the time, patience or had the inclination to set it up. I am so glad that I have finally blogged though-I feel like I am crossing over to the dark side...woo hoo... I just hope that people won't get bored in reading it-LOL!
