Going to the Farm

As promised here is some pics of my latest creation ... a mini book for Emma about a recent trip to the 'farm'. This farm is actually the camp that is just out of Mosgiel where Scrap Camp was held earlier this year. John, the manager of the camp, is also one of the kindy teachers. We headed there on a bus and got to see the animals he has there - 3 lambs, 4 hens, 3 cows, 2 goats, 3 cows, 2 pigs and 1 dog. This was great especially for the kids that have never seen some of these animals up close before.
The minibook was created with the new papers from October Afternoon 'Farm Fresh' which suited the farm photos perfectly!
The photos of pigs and goats - I put it together for Emma like a storybook - so she can read the journalling herself ...

And the back ...

Speaking of October Afternoon, I have seen the new papers and with an upcoming 5 year old in our house they will be perfect for the 'off to school' pages for her album!

Now off to make invites to a certain early birthday party - theme 'butterflies/princess/fairies' - will post a peek at these once I have finished.

Hello again

... life doesn't seem to be slowing down at all, now on the run to the end of the year (no I'm not running - that would require too much energy - LOL!)
We have been busy (as per usual) over the last month, so here is a few pics to show what we have been up to ...
... Marty and his new toy ...
... Finn in training to be a Black Cap ...

... my $5 bargain at our school fair ...

... and this gorgeous girl came to stay from Melbourne for a few days ...

On scrapping front I have purchased a couple of albums lately so have been getting all my layouts in order and filed properly. Feels great to finally have these in a proper albums instead of just piled up in a file box. Got a couple of mini albums in progress at the moment and a few layouts with some of the above photos - might surprise you all with another post later in the week with some of these projects ...
