I am back -and my first freebie for 2008!!

Hello everyone -and a happy new year to you all! I can't believe it is over a month ago that I last blogged! We returned from a wonderful vacation on 5 December, but I have been so hectically busy getting my life back in order with piles of washing etc, catching up on neglected CT stuff and, getting 2 kids back to school, and one to a new job!

Our vacation was brilliant, beautiful hot weather, and not much wind. One of the highlights was meeting some of the ladies from Snap & Scrap. We had lunch at the beautiful Vergelegen Wine Estate in Somerset West, an afternoon with much laughter and a few glasses of wine! I still have so many pictures to scrap, but here is one that I have managed to do! And some photos!

This was created using Nina Scrap Designs available at Oscraps - credits here

Some photos of the girls at Snap & Scrap - none of me- I was behind the camera!

This is Mari - owner of Snap and Scrap- I am also on her personal CT, so it was so great to meet her eventually!!

I still have hundreds of holiday photos to scrap, a few I have done:

Going on holiday!!!!!

This is my last post for a few weeks, we are off on holiday on Saturday for 3 weeks. We are flying to Cape Town which is a 2 hour flight from here, and my 2 doxies are flying with us! I hate leaving the rest of my animals, but we do have someone coming in every day to feed them. And all the year end functions are over, thank goodness.

Just a few LO's done lately, and it is just a few as I have been so busy. I am way behind on CT stuff this month.

Last part of Secret Garden

I am up at the crack of dawn to bring you the last part of Secret Garden. In a few hours we are flying to Durban (an hour's flight) for one of those dreaded year end functions, and then flying home tomorrow. I had to dress hunt for this one, and found a gorgeous emerald green dress that I just love, long and very simple, but my favourite colour to wear!We also went out last night to a Portuguese restaurant that has just opened here, so had a very late night, surprised I am up this early!

I discovered two new products this week, and a new designer that I just have to share with you!

This is by Miss Shabby Jen Designs, just love these for layering!

And I just love these folded corners,so easy to use, all ready with shadows,by Vickie

And my LO's using them.
