Happy New Year!!!!

Happy New Year! I hope 2010 is a great year for everyone :)

Hi again.....

Im sorry I seemed to have vanished off the face of the earth, I moved house and then I was without internet for what seemed like forever! Then it was christmas, I have had a real busy few months. But I am glad to be back :)

I have been invited into some challenges for the new year and I thought I would post them here on my blog.

First off, there is a 'A day in the life' challenge over at Digital Scrap Cafe. Its kinda like a project 365, but instead of a layout a day, you scrap 1 layout a week. I thought one layout a week can't be that hard to keep up with, so I am gonna give it a go! Wish me luck, and I am hoping I dont suck at it too much considering I have never done a layout before LOL.

My second challenge for the year is '365 days of pictures'. Easy peasy - I just gotta take a photo everyday and post it to my blog. I take TONS of photos anywway so this should be a breeze :)

Better go and upload my photos - I'll be back soon with my first photo of the year!

Its Tuesday again....

It's Tuesday again, so here is another template for you! I am sorry I missed last week, I had another hectic week. I will try to stay on track from now on though. Anyway, here is this weeks template! I have for you a striped paper template, I hope you find it useful! As usual, it is a 300dpi greyscale template and the coloured version is not included.

A very late 'Tuesday Template'

Im sorry I could'nt get my freebie template up on Tuesday. My daughter has been ill in hospital so things have been very hectic around here.

She has got a viral infection, but her body was struggling to cope with it due to her prematuity and her size, but she is ok now though, thanks goodness!

Ok, so here is your late 'Tuesday Template'. Hey, that kinda rhymes. Lol! Anyway, today I have for you a template you can use to easily create spotted papers! It is a layered PSD file, and is 3600x3600 in 300dpi. As usual, the coloured example is not included.

A totally random post.....

I have needed a new camera for ages, after my daughter broke mine last year. I was so sick of using my cell phone to take pictures, so I bought a new camera - FINALLY! I didnt buy anything fancy but what I got is pretty neat and was a pretty good price too! This is what I got, the Canon Powershot A480. I would definatly recommend it!



I can't wait to do some mini photoshoots with my kiddos, but I did take some piccies of my youngest daughter the day I bought it. Here she is, my little preemie princess, Leoni Jayde. :)




And I just love this picture - one of her first smiles <3



She is almost 11 weeks old now, but still only weighs just over 8lbs. She is still in newborn clothes and nappies, everybody always comments on her tiny size.

Anyways, sorry for my totally random post. I will be back with a new kit very soon!

Template Tuesday!

It seems my commercial use templates are quite popular, so I decided to have a 'Template Tuesday'. I will try and get one out every week for you. Here is this weeks, it is a greyscale layered psd tree template and is about 7 inches tall, and is 300dpi. The coloured version is not included though. I hope someone can find a use for it, CU OK and no credit is required :)

Another Justmommies blog train!

October is breast cancer awareness month, so the theme for this months blog train is 'Be Aware'.

Sadly, 1 women in 9 will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. It is important to be breast aware and know what is normal for you. Being breast aware means becoming familiar with how your breasts look and feel, whatever your age. Understand how your breasts may change at different times of the month (for example when you are on your period) and as you get older.

These are the changes to look for, and if you are in any doubt, see your doctor.

• A lump or thickening which is different to the rest of the breast tissue
• Continuous pain in one part of the breast or armpit
• One breast becomes larger or lower
• A nipple becomes inverted or changes shape or position
• Skin changes including puckering or dimpling
• Swelling under the armpit or around the collarbone
• A rash on or around the nipple
• Discharge from one or both nipples

Remember the breast awareness 5 point code:

1. Know what is normal for you
2. Look and feel
3. Know what changes to look for
4. Report any changes without delay
5. Attend routine breast screening if you are aged 50 and over

Remember, be aware!
