When opportunity knocks...

I absolutely cannot, simply cannot go to bed without letting you know....

A few weeks ago I received a rather unexpected email. Well, totally unexpected really, if I'm being honest. The email was inviting me to join a certain design team. Now, I had often looked at this particular design team and had (rather wistfully) thought that it would be a super design team to belong to.

Well.... now I do!!!

I am so incredibly delighted to share with you that I am now a member of the Aussie Scrap Source Design Team.

Here are my projects for my introductory post on their blog.

I Love Spring
Journaling: That first day when you feel the sun on your bare arms... it's the best! My spirits lift immediately.

Lovin' that ASS carries Websters Pages. I am adoring using them at the moment.

Lots of distressing, some calico and handstitching on this page :).


Aah, when I'm given free reign with manufacturers, who do I choose? Any guesses?

Hat
Journaling: I will be sad when winter ends and I no longer have the opportunity to dress you in my fav. hat.

Cosmo - one of my favourite manufacturers for little boy lines. Easily one of my favourite manufacturers for Jamie's pages :)

Love those wood grain chipboard letters and all the retro chipboard embellishments!!

Mr Happy
Journaling: Whether you're running around pretending to be a favourite animal or merrily singing some song, you're one bundle of happy energy!

Haha! Sassafras Lass. Always a firm favourite. Such happy happy products. The monsters in the Monstrosities line just reminded me of the Mr Men, one of whom is pictured on Jamie's top in these photos. And it's such a good reflection of his personality - I just had to document it.


OK, that's it from me tonight. Check the post out here.

OK, now I have to get to bed. Night!

Great news about the DT role, Kathie! And love the 3D effects of your latest LOs. Thanks for your comments about my zoo book - I used our leftover Websters paper from our class for the cover of the zoo book - will post when it's all finished.
Also, I love my little Bind-it-all and just had to tell you (in case you're thinking of buying one, which I do recommend) that Spotlight sells version 2, the pink one, for $79 - I think that's their normal price - but Lincraft sell them for $129. Gulp! What a difference...
