MHC DT - Mini Paper Bag Album

 I have a love for paper bag mini's, they can be so much, a great gift for someone, or something you can use yourself and fill with all sorts of treasures and special moments, with lots of  spots to journal the list goes on and on............ I have used The Scrap Cake's Spring Awakening Collection by Karola , Manorhouse Creations flowers - Cottage Garden - Bird Song and Rose leaves, lots of Helmar Acid Free & 450 quick Dry, OTC Chippy Words, German Scrap Laces, Ornate Garlands & Filigree Flowers, Muslin, Hat Pin, pearls and ribbon. I love the soft blue vintage feel to it!

Can you remember Charlie & The Chocolate Factory and how he won a GOLD ticket?
Well that's ME!!!

All I need now is  Nic & Lucy too round up some Umpa Lumpa's and then that's two things ticked off my bucket list at once - woo hoo !!

Welcome to my Manor House!

 
WELCOME, WELCOME, WELCOME!! 
My mind has been racing and I mean really racing, since I got the exciting news of joining the Manor House. What an honor for me to be sitting up there, right along side some of the worlds best! Yep little ole me who does her thing up here in the rural area of Darwin, Northern Territory.  I feel like a kid in the candy shop , you know the one that just can't get enough lol
Even though my mind has been racing with so many ideas, I knew exactly what I wanted to do for my intro and of course it had to be a Manor House. A huge thank you goes out to AGB  this Manor House wouldn't have come to life without you xxx
Out There Trinkets, German Scrap & Art Mould used to make centre piece on the roof.
ummm ................I wonder what's next!

Cover Girls - Scrapbooking Memories - Vol 13 No 11


Mini Me - Mirror, Mirror on the wall, I am my mother after all!
Woop Woop - First time I have ever submitted and I got the Cover - how stoked am I, like TOTALLY! OK so it's not actually my smiling face but my name is there somewhere, so that does it for me and I can now tick it off my bucket list lol
 My sister Wendy & her daughter Abbee
I really don't consider myself to be a LO girl, I struggle let me tell you. I would like to thank my sister Ang & Nic Howard for all the inspiration, techniques, encouragement & everything else that goes with pulling a LO together. If it wasn't for them I would still only have one LO in my album, bless their white cotton socks!
September is definitely my month, I'm loving every bit of it & I'm not sure i could top it -  A DT call up, Cover Girl, Bali & another year older. Not looking forward to adding another digit, but i guess the upside is i can add a little wiser to that list too.

Take Care
