up for some Tarisota Goodness.....

Ok we all know that I am a big Tarisota lover and I think I can't speak more highly of the kits that arrive on my doorstep but I have found that I haven't been using up my kits as the next one arrives before I finish with the old and can't help myself but have to let the goodness of the box rush open by having my daughter open it just for the little chocolate treats that come along with it...So this week I turned on the computer and went back to some of the old collections and found a few layout designs that I liked and basically scraplifted them so I could throw away a few empty pizzas boxes from my ever growing supply of them honestly I don't know where they come from (the pizza boxes that is)
So I hope you enjoy then next few pages and I have added a few little things from my stash but all in all I am pretty happy to say that I got to throw away two pizza boxes with next to nothing left yipppeeee..... only makes more room for the next pizza box (lol)









Have a great day and I will hope not to be so slack this week but we are also off to Newcastle on Saturday after John plays in his soccer grand final for Karate...so we will have to see how all goes...luv and hugs jen xoxoxo

Busy little thing I have been

So apart from trying to go to work keep a household under control - thats funny!!! keep the kids from screaming down the walls and the usual run around after the kids and try and keep myself sane I have managed to squeezed in a few bits that I have been dying to get in and finish so here is a bit of an update with some stuff that I have been working on...


I have been meaning to scrapbook this photo for a while as Katie has just got her Bronze Endeavour which is half way to her Junior BP Badge for Girl Guides this award has taken alot of work and she only has one more section to complete and she has completed her Junior BP...excellent work Katie Kirk



John not long ago turned 11 and I loved these Basic Grey June Bug papers and I must admit love how this page has turned out....oh by the way the new Basic Grey christmas range is to die for how to I know??? I just got my order in oh yummy....its so pretty but it has a lot of pink in it this year...Aunty Annie will be happy



Sassafrass Lass papers who in the world doesn't like these little whimsy paper collections is mad mad I tell you I love them and oh the little to die for pears on this paper oh so cute....



Some more My Little Shoe Box and anyone who knows me well knows that I love owls and I just couldn't walk away from these cute little owls...



New cosmo Cricket line yum!yum!yum! love it and so easy to work with.....



Will be back in a sec with some more sweet treasures...luv and hugs jen xoxoxox

Where has the time gone!!!

I honestly can say I don't know where the time has passed and it seems to have gone way to quick....This weekend was the end of Katies Hockey for the year and presentation day was on Saturday. Katie loves her hockey



Sunday was a big day for us as a family as John went to his first ISCA tornament for Karate here in Tamworth and the exciting part of it all is that in his point sparing he came 3rd we are all so proud of him...



Now for some scrapbooking these are the new My little shoe box papers and I just had to have them along with everything else that I own but oppps they are so darn cute!!!
The photo is of Katie and Rhianna and they have such a special bond....



I also got around to making some more card thingo's as I have that many scraps and promised myself that I would be cleaning up all the bits and bobs as I used them but never quite happens that way but oh well.....



These little gems are some of my chrissy presents instead of making fully scrapbooked mini albums like I normally do I have cheated and purchased a kit from Shop and Crop which my wonderful dear friend Deb came up with but don't be offended Deb you know me I have to put my own little touches on things...oh by the way I love making these little flowers lately I have put them on everything....



Well I better get into another post as I have lots to share I have been quite a busy little beaver and time is running out so must get scooting...luv and hugs jen xoxoxox

Just a quick update....

Well I know that I have been a bit slack on the blogging thing but I have been quite busy and today I front up for my seventh split shift straight so I am a little tired and no room for scrapbooking in the Kirk Inn at the moment but tomorrow I have a day off so I might be able to get quite busy heres hoping.
I have done a bit of scrapping though as I went to Sydney with a dear girlfriend who is like my sister and we had a lovely time and sat and scrapbooked in our little motel room one night because the next night I was stuffed....
So here are a few little creations....









oh by the way anyone who is like me and likes to be a bit organised I have some news to tell you Christmas is only 14 weeks away eeekkkkkk.....not that organised this year but hoping to pull it off...lots of hugs and kisses jen
