What a month! I suppose you have been wondering where I have been well, where do I start!
My husband and I togther with my daughter went on a holiday for a week which was lovely. Right in the middle of school holidays (yes we are mad given the fact we can take holidays any time of year!). We had a nice time of relaxation and walks though. Then we came home and my daughter and I went down to my parents farm. In fact I feel like it has been my second home for about a month or two nice which is really nice. Especially to spend time with my parents and Grandparents.

Besides wanting to spend some good quality time with my family I have been holding quite a few classes down there (Thank you to the ladies of Crookwell). The last class I did was to make a photo album. So I thought I would show you a photo of one I made as an example.

In a previous blog I mentioned how much I love this colour combo and that it reminds me of Cherry Ripes. Well here it is again, decorating the photo album that everyone made.

I am currently catching up on all my office work and taking photos of all the creations I have been making. I will catch up on my blog over the next few days and show you some of the creations I have made. So, if you have been bord with my blog of recent times. Be sure to check it out over the coming week or so as I will bombard you with ideas!

If you are interested in purchasing a kit to make a photo album please send me an email with your contact details. There are two types of kit:
  1. Basic Kit – Provides the interscrews, coverboard and corners for you to create your own design
  2. Album Kit – Provides all the materials to make a full photo album.

Cherry Ripes

July 1, 2008 by Ruth  

I don’t know what is is about Cherry Ripes but I have found that I have become quite partial to them since being pregnant and having my daughter. I never used to be that interested in them. Now you are most likely thinking why is she talking about Cherry Ripes??? Well I have just finished a little ‘On Board’ journal for my sister who is embarking on a 5 year plan to live in England (once she gets her passport) and the link to Cherry Ripes is that the colours I have used remind me of Cherry Ripes!! ‘Close to Coco, Purely Pomegranet and Pretty in Pink’. I recently bought the ‘Big Pieces and Little Pieces’ stamp set and haven’t been able to put it down since. I love it! I also purchase several punches to compliment this set and I have a new found love for punches. They make life so much easier.

Once finished the Journal I put her favourite recipes in it so she can take them with her. The book is small enough not to be a hinderence. I hope you like it!!!
