Hula Hooper (with my range of crochet flowers)

Here is the first page using my own crochet flowers, and I'm so pleased with the result. They are a thicker version of some of the others I have made, but I love the effect they create. I will post some very soon, and if you are interested, you can purchase from here.
This page was created yet again for the Scrapbooking From scratch monthly challenge. I really love these challenges as i find they bring out a different side to my scrapping.
items used: American Crafts cardstock, pp - Stampin' Up, craftworks letters, doily, paint, 7 Gypsys tag, gemstones, ribbon, everlasting keepsakes shapes and tag, and my very own crochet flowers.

thanks for looking,
Donna

Weekend Away

Last weekend we went away for my friend, Melissa's birthday. We went to a place called Villa Lago at Coomba Bay NSW. What a relaxing and beautiful place this is (a bit of photo overload to come...) Perfect for a weekend away or girls weekend as these photos show.










Below are pics of the room Jason and I had (They let us have the main suite which was fantastic!!) Huge king size bed with amazing views, and our ensuite with massive spa bath and double shower (the ensuite was bigger than our home bedroom!!)




And while away I took my scrapping stuff in case I had some time to scrap - of which I managed. I was up at the crack of dawn (due to the sun shining right through the windows) so I ended up completing the following 2 pages. Was pleased that I got 2 done.
