Holidays begin..

Left home on Saturday, had a pretty awesome flight. Was quiet bumpy getting in to Brisbane there was a storm brewing so lots of minor turbulence. Otherwise it was all good. The girls were ready waiting for me as we got held up on the run way for about 15 mins.

I so knew I was in Qld the minute I stepped off the plane, you can just feel the humidity.. heaven help me O/s haha! Didn't do much but lots and lots of chatting for the rest of Saturday.

On Sunday I caught up with Katie we went and had tea at the Malaya Hut. Was awesome! We both stuffed ourselves full!! Hoping to catch up with Katie again on Friday. Will be good!

Monday we went down to the bank in the city and got some Ringgits and Baht. Was very exciting!! So have a little here now to play with and learn which is which before we get on the streets lol.

On Tuesday we went to a few mates for a BBQ and lots of laughs! Was a great evening. Food, friends and laughs, who could ask for more??

This weekend I am catching up with Robyn and Linda from allcraftz, it's going to be a top meet up I just know it!! I can't wait to check out Robyn's works up close and personal.

Ok I think that's it! Getting exciting, we leave here Monday night.

Travel Time

So today’s the day I fly up to Brisbane. I have all my clothes organised, got all my bits and bobs ready. I have some new clothes to take with me. I’ve put the photos here. (Mostly so my mum can check them out LOL).

I hope I haven’t forgotten anything.. Really all I need is my bank card and my passport, but still, you just know you’re going to forget something hahah.

I’ll be up in Brissy until the 31st Oct or 1st of Nov, then we fly out to Malaysia, arriving at some early hour. We then catch another flight to Thailand a couple of hours later. We are there until the 12th then we fly back to Malaysia stay two nights and leave and get back to Brisbane on the 14th of Nov. I stay in Brissy until the morning of the 16th and then I fly home :)

While I am away hope that I can update my blog often for all you that follow along. Hope you all get lots of scrapping done so I have heaps of inspiration for when I bring home TONS of photos that must get scrapped LOL

I’m in an ABC ATC swap at the moment. I am loving it. We’ve already received our first 3 letters back and I have sent of the next letters. I thought I’d showcase them here everyday for the 7 letters that I’ve done.

Todays letter is A – Adventure.

Getting excited

I’m getting very excited I will be going away very soon and I am really looking forward to it! For those that don’t know. I am going to Brisbane for a week and then my best friend, her girlfriend and I are off to Thailand and Malaysia for 12 nights. I’ll be away from home for about 3 weeks.. Will I survive with out ATC’s?? Don’t fear, I have some stuff prepped to take LOL

I have never been to either country so it’s really exciting. I am looking forward to eating, shopping, swimming and getting massages :)
I’ve set up my ABC swap that I am in to post every day over the next 7 days so be sure to stop by and check them out. I have done A thru to G at the moment. I probably won’t get a chance to work on the others before I go away, so you’ll just have to wait :P
Here are some recent-ish ATC’s. The elephant and windmill are country swaps. First India and the second France. The Imagination one is a pink ribbon swap, and the last one was a spring swap.

Addiction?

   
I think maybe I am really an addict LOL I have finally finished sorting all my ATC’s I have something like 600 of the little suckers. Not bad considering I only started making them last April, that’s about 18 months ago.. Which means I make something like 30 ATC’s a month ahahah!
If you click on the picture you can see a much larger version, so you can see some close up.
Ok here is a recent ATC I made for a flickr swap..


A layout I did for YSB last month as part of the monthly challenges. This month there are some great challenges up, but with going away I am not going to be able to play :( I am also going to miss the second cyber crop.. So head along and have some fun for me :)

Last but not least is Michael’s Mothers birthday card. I made it a week or two back. Her birthday isn’t until mid Nov, but I will be away so I did it early.. I hope he remembers to post it haha!!
