Scrapping in the sun

On our recent break in Portugal I took full advantage of my free time and did some scrapbooking.

A table on the balcony was an ideal spot.

   

I made a total of 37 pages. 

This took planning as I had to take everything with me. 

I did this by making Page Kits. In the kit I had everything to make the page plus a sketch. 

I took a basic tool kit. The result, lots of scrapbooking. 

When I think of how I used to go to crops with everything but the kitchen sink in my pull along bag

 ( bigger than my suitcase) and only make 1 page. On the table there is a pencil case that had my tools in it. I also had a cutting mat and Tim Holtz ruler.

I really think everyone should give it a go. Coffee and cake is optional. 

First Crop

I am very excited we have the first few beans ready to eat. 

Out to dinner

Wonderful surprise Roy suggested we go out to eat . We went to Brickfield Tavern. Lovely food god price . 

Sunshine

It is so wonderful to live by the sea it's the breeze that makes heat bearable.

If I had known you were coming....

Thought I would treat the family and bake a cake. It turned out ok even if I say so myself.

Green

Green is not my favourite colour but I love this Nails Inc nail polish my mum gave me as a gift. Thanks Mum!

Hidden treasure

Years ago Roy's dad gave us a rose bush. We planted it and to be honest it has done nothing until now. I was hanging out washing, turned and saw hidden between the Budlea and the Russian Vine the most beautiful blooms. I wanted to share this treasure .
