I can't think of a title for this post. Sorry, I think I promised to post some pics from Abby's kinder farm excursion but I decided not to since there are some other kids in there too.
Good news...I did manage to do some scrapping. I scrapped some dt layouts as well as my last dt layouts for Bumble Bee Crafts. I decided to resign from Bumble Bee Crafts and I'm no longer on HMITM challenge group because I wanted to reduce my dt commitments and concentrate on my photography and the 2 other dt commitments I have left. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with both of them because it challenges me to use whatever scrapbooking products that were assigned to me.
Here are some of the new layouts I can show. 
Recently published layouts
My first layouts (and it's a double page layout which is rare for me...lol) published in Memory Makers special issue. 
I was sent 2 copies of this magazine when I got my layout back. Leave a comment on this post and I (maybe Abby will enjoy doing that) will randomly draw a name out on Sunday (Australia time) to send one of the magazine to and maybe a little RAK:)
I think that's probably it for me. My mum is here for a visit from New Zealand and Abby and I are really enjoying her company. We went for a walk yesterday and I managed to get some cool shots. She's turned into quite a poser lately....lol.
I discover your blog!Wonderful! Gorgeous! Your pictures and your layouts! Your are now in my favorites!
