Can't Believe I Haven't Blogged For So Long

I can't believe how busy I've been. I got home last Saturday after spending a wonderful week on the Pacific Star with the Scrapbooks and More Scrapping cruise. Had an absolute ball. Got to meet some lovely people and to get to know others I already knew a lot better. Spent most of my time with Mum, Rachel, Milly & Brendan. had heaps of fun..... going to shows, dancing etc.

Thought it was going to be a crap week when I got my scrap stuff confiscated at customs due to my scissors etc. We eventually got it all sorted and ended up having to scrap with security guards watching us. All our tools at to be itemised and checked back in at the end of each scrap session..... must have thought we were going to attack each other with our crop-a-diles and bone folders!!!!!! Some of the female security ended up working on the projects with us and became scrap addicts to boot. They showed the captain and we got to go on a tour of the bridge as a result.

The scrap sessions were great and the projects we worked on were just gorgeous (especially the keepsake box). I won the badge comp and received a lavendar making memories tote which I just love!!!!! All the gifts and the prizes were great. Hope and co put a lot of effort into it and it was well worth it. Can't wait to go on another scrap cruise.

Here's a pic of Mum & I about to board the ship.


Here's Milly & I with the gorgeous First Officer Luca. Milly the cheeky thing copped a good feel of his butt!!!!! He had the most define french accent that made all the girls swoon.

I've got a heap of other pics but I'll put them in a slide show and post them here later on in the week.

Been so busy since I got back. Firstly I spent a small fortune at the Brisbane paper Arts Festival on the Sunday. Jo & I had a great day out. I bought a cuttlebug and some dies, as well as some more BTP stuff (like I need anymore). Had afternoon tea with Katie & Louise who I met on the cruise. Then on Friday met up the some girls from Scrapbook City Forum at the lovely Rachelle Minnett's home. Her home is simply gorgeous..... I could easily live there. And then I had Milly, Jo, & Rachel over for a scrap night since Mark's gone away on a fishing weekend with the boys. I started work on a mini album I'm going to make about the cruise. we all had such a nice time and are planning on making it a monthly get together.

Finally, Club Scrap n' Chat is underway. The first challenge went out. Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. We now have 12 official members. They are all lovely ladies so this should be fun.

Sorry for the long post but as you can see heaps has happened. Gotta run now as Grey's Anatomy is on soon. It would have to be my most favourite show at the moment.!!!
