At last!

I have been itching to show you some of my latest published pages. The mags are in the shops now & I managed to track some of them down to grab a snap.....take a look.

These two are in the April CK....the mag is HOT this month, so if I were you I'd hit your LSS and grab yourself a copy. It is full of fantastic Easter, 'Spring' ideas (for those of you approaching spring) & other great fun pages. Talking about Creating Keepsakes, they now have a blog...if you have two minutes, take a wander over there. There are interesting articles & giveaways; it's loads of fun.
(sorry about the terrible pic's)





And then there is this page from the latest Memory Makers mag...May/June. (I can't find any of my copies of my March/April mag so I cannot show you that page, but when I do, I will post it here.)

This year is the first time I have submitted to this mag & it has certainly paid off, I have a whole bunch of pages going in over the next couple of months.



IMAGE TEMPORARILY REMOVED!



I have to say...each time I see my pages in print, I have to pinch myself. A couple of years ago when I started scrapping, I never thought for a minute I'd be where I am today. I like to think that God has a purpose for me somewhere in amongst this world of paper & scissors, it would make my experiences all the more sweeter.

Thanks for looking everyone!

I'll be back tomorrow with some sneak peaks of Cocoa Daisy's gorgeous April kit.
Chow until then!!

Pink ROCKS!

Hi guys...yip you are probably wagging your finger at me, scolding me for my shocking blogging record over the last little while. Well, I've been busy, very busy actually. I have had scrappy projects for some mags coming out of my ears, then my brother & sister in law came out from the UK and stayed with us, then my Pink Paislee projects were due and to top it all my Cocoa Daisy kit arrived...sooo you can imagine...there was no room left for blogging.

I will post some pics of our time with them here soon, I still have to go through them all & select a handful out of the 500 or so I took hahaha! Camera happy I was!!
I do however have a few pink Paislee projects to share with you. I have used a variety of products here, so if you are interested hop over to this link & take a look at exactly what I used.

This is my March project for the month.

This was February's projects...yes, it is an altered item ( I can hear some of you out there sniggering), I had to try it sometime didn't I?? I kept is easy & used a tin.....if you are keen to see something just short of unbelievable, pop over to this PP blog post. Jenni is a genius at altering, as you will plainly see, what I call altering doesn't even count.



This was my March blog post. Bright & fun!


I know short & sweet but it is real late & I have to get some sleep, so that's all for now folks. I have some great news to share with you but I'll get to it in a in a day or two, so please pop back.

Now go & have yourselves a super day!

So excited!

I haven't posted to 2 peas for ages but in light of my responsibility to promote Cocoa Daisy & Pink Paislee where ever I can, I thought I'd better do some house keeping over there, clean up my galleries & start posting again.
Well last night I posted my newest PP project & my Feb Cocoa Daisy projects and three of them are in the top 10 for votes this AM!!!
I know it is really 'nothing' but I still feel mighty chuffed about it.

If you feel so inclined, please pop over there & VOTE for me....*for a giggle* lets see how many I can clock up. Here is the link~

I know I am a sick/twisted woman!!!

RAK time!!

Hello there everyone!
Firstly thanks for your support & prayers for Max, his fever finally broke on Friday afternoon. I was so relieved because it was sitting at 39 degrees & in all honesty after 3 days I was panicking, expecting to be sitting in casualty by the evening if it didn't lower. So thanks again guys, God is indeed very faithful & answered pronto!

Now to the fun stuff, how about a little magazine RAK???
I have x4 extra copies of mags floating around my scrap table that I haven't given away as yet, they are CK Dec, CK Jan & x2 MM March, anyone keen to win one of these?

All you have to do is leave me a comment, telling me which one you would like & a bit about yourself and I'll choose the winners on Thursday 12th. Sound good?

Great! I look forward to hearing from you.
See ya!
~Kim!

It's a first!

I have never made a calender before, until now and do you know what, it was such fun.



If you are keen to see the rest of the project, take a look here.

On the home front, our whole family has been sick all week with some weird virus...I hate being sick. My biggest worry though is Maxi who is running such high fevers at the moment, it is scary. If it doesn't drop by morning, I guess it'll be a visit to the doc.
Please pray for him if you get a gap.
Thanks a million!
