Q Tea Add-on Kit

Now available for ordering at Q Tea - check the pic out here if you have trouble viewing the blog itself for some reason.

I'm off to Adelaide shortly, must go!

Rocket Trip

Since Sienna calls airplanes 'Rockets', we are going on a rocket trip this evening which she is quite excited about. I guess she doesn't remember the last time she went on a plane, it was a couple of years ago for her. I tend to take whichever kid is free, LOL, which is NEITHER OF THEM ANYMORE. Now that Ash is 2 I pay for both their seats, and leaving poor Ben at home to work away, while we trot around the Adelaide Hills without him.

Yay for free babysitting!

OK I am trying to whip around the virtual world this morning, but Ash is climbing all over me and making it very hard. I took some photos yesterday after the convention, since Sienna was dressed so beautifully. Here are the few I've looked at this morning, and then I'm off to finish packing.

Thank you to everyone for your lovely congratulations and excitement for me on the MMM runner-up spot, I was very chuffed :)

Check this out: Dust Echoes. Ben's older brother Toby is an illustrator and animator who works with Vishus Productions and they were part of the second Dust Echoes project, featuring short animated videos of Aboriginal dreamtime stories. Toby worked on Moon Man, The Curse and Namorrodor (hope that is the correct spelling!). Ben and I watched them on Friday and they are really fantastic, we're very proud of how clever Uncle Toby is :) Sienna really liked them too, even though they were a bit scary, and wanted to watch them again. Ash fell asleep, LOL. OK packing calls. Bye!

Made Something

Made this mini-album this afternoon, though I made the cover last night actually. Uses lots of the goodies that are in Q Tea's August kit, and lots of fun! The September kit is online now, though there are only a small amount left, 7 I believe. Must get on to that extra kit I promised.

The rest of the pics of this album can be seen on Q Tea's flickr here.

Adelaide next week - yay! Will be fun and lots of photo taking I'm sure. I will even try to fit in some relaxing.

Top 11 to 20

out of almost 600..

OK a couple of you are ahead of the game, LOL, but the official announcement happened while I was happily snoozing.... I am really excited to announce that I was one of the 10 runners-up in the Memory Makers Masters contest!

I was even more excited this morning when I saw that Amelia made it to the team (yay Aussies!), and that I have the privelege of being listed alongside Celine Navarro and Lisa Garay as runners-up - just LOVE those girls' styles!

A huge thank you to the gorgeous Nic for mentoring and advising me with my entry, you are awesome :)

Here's a happy garden pic from last month

Yep, I'm still alive,

..and kicking. So to speak. Didn't get out of bed much between Wednesday night and Sunday midday. Man this cold flu virus whatever really takes it out of you. I feel sad for all the littlies that have it. Mind you I guess they don't have to look after themselves while they are feeling sick. LOL.
Anyhoo

Did the drawing for the cushion cover RAK, with a random number generator cos I am too lazy to print them out today, and the winner is.... Vita! I have your addy though, so I'll post them this week sweetie :) Thanks for your comment the other day about me being 'out of it' last Tuesday, totally made me laugh.

And now a random picture cos I feel like it:

I might have posted that a month or two ago, I'm not sure. In any case, I don't think I mentioned the hat - isn't it adorable? Sienna got it from www.perfectamity.com
a new business started by a local mum we know, specialising in gorgeous knitted kid's stuff, hats at the moment. Sienna has all three of the hats in the current range, as I designed the logo for the business. Anyhow, the strawberry is her fave :)

ciao!
