Good news :)

I've felt a bit blah lately with scrapping, so I haven't trusted myself to do my layout swap with Janelle. She made me the most stunning page, and I should have done hers A LONG TIME AGO! Anyway, I finally feel like I'm comming out of blah-dom. I spent the weekend (well a little bit of it) just playing. The first is of Ethan's first birthday in Feb this year... lots of eyelets on that one! I have my SP DT layout to do, then organise my sample for the cyber crop, then Janelle's layout! Her photo is so gorgeous, I'm nervous LOL


And then this one of Liam playing with some skittles I bought (Jess!)

I wanted a bright mulitcoloured title, but had no chipboard the right colour, and couldn't be bothered mixing up a heap of paint to make the right colour, so I just printed it on there (matched the colours from the skittles in PS) then went over it with some dimensional magic... and the GinX heart too. Very clean, but I like it. Feels summery and light :)

I have some VERY excing news, but not sure if I'm allowed to share yet... so I'll just have to tempt you with that. Anyone want to guess? (No, I'm not pregnant!)
