I'm on Holidays - Yah.
Nice feeling tonight - finally on two weeks holiday. It has been a busy and long term, so I am really looking for to these couple of weeks off. Life has been good at school this year though and although I am looking forward to the holidays, I really am enjoying my job in the library - so much so that it is hard to beleive that half of this year has gone already. It has been just the change I have needed.
I am also doing a little Happy dance tonight, our son sat his final exam today - all being well ( we will know for sure in two weeks time when final results come out) He will have finally completed his degree. It has been a long time coming. I have been to numerous graduations in my time as a RLO, but I can tell you his graduation is one I won't miss, and it will be even more special than the ones I have attended in the past.
I have been busy creating again this week. A coulple of digital layouts using Willro&Co kits.
I used the doodle alpha kit for this layout. Love the way you can fill the alpha with colours to match your layouts.
Credits for this layout are
Willro&Co Doodle Alpha
Terry Logan - "April Showers" (pink bracket paper)
Amy Fenner - Green Patterned Paper
KSKD - Stationary Plus Patterned Paper
Lindsay Jane Designs "Symphony of Stars" Denim scallop border.
Ribbon - unknown
For this second layout I used the new Willro&Co "Complicated" kit. This was a great kit to work with and I can see myself using it again.
I alos managed to do a little paper scrapbooking this week also. This first layout is one I started on our scrapbooking retreat and finally managed to finish it. The second layout is the one I did for the Scrap of Faith for June. It is all about sharing our faith.
Not a lot more news. I am looking forward to catching up with a few friends for coffee and lunch during the holidays. Chloe and I will also be meeting with the dressmaker to decide on her formal dress. I'm also planning to do some scrapbooking and hope to fit in a massage or pedicure. The nicest part of being on holidays is going to be the sleep ins - no getting up early to rush off to work.
The second week we are heading off to Brissie to catch with our kids - haven't seen them for a few months now so are really looking forward to spending some time with them. Also hoping to get the formal shopping done for Chloe as well as catch up with a few friends and our parents.
I booked into a photography course today and I start this on 21st July - Looking forward to getting to know my new camera a little better and hoping to use it a bit more in the future.
