Lunchpail

I got my first acceptance in the New Zealand scrapbooking magazine Up2Scrap Woohoo! I was so excited! It's one of my favourite layouts too - a photos of Tassy and I taken at Floriade last year. I don't know anything about this magazine so I'm keen to see a copy.

I went to the Craft Fair yesterday. Felicity came with us and her husband Matt picked her up after about 1½ hours, then they headed to the snow with a group of friends. Tassy and I stayed for another 3 hours! Considering how LONG we were there for, Tassy was very good. We went to four scrapbooking sessions at The Studio - 3 of Fiona Carter's and one of Rachel Axton's. I didn't buy a lot, I resisted temptation :) I just got some BG swirly rub-ons and some Deluxe Designs chipboard swirls. Oh, and 300m of double sided tape!! Tassy loved the button shops. She was allowed to choose one to buy so she chose a cute little golliwog (not sure what the politically correct name for them is now!) and she also bought some individual matboard letters. She chose T for Tassy, M for Mummy, D for Daddy and F for Felicity. Isn't she sweet :)

I saw my lunchpail at the Scrap The Lot stand, so I'm going to share some of it now. Here's the front and 3 of the 28 layouts. The layouts were so quick to do cos I limited the supplies I could use and I stitched on every layout - that's something I really LOVE! Oh - and the edge of that Y monogram has been stuck down permanently now!

Hi Yvette, the lunch pail is gorgeous. I hope you didnt think I was a stalker or anything on Friday, but I have never run into another blogger in the real world like that, so I couldnt help but say something to you lol. Glad you enjoyed the craft fair, I had a great time too. So much gorgeous stuff to spend money on...
Cheers
