New look

Did you notice that my blog has a new look? Thanks to my sister Rachel, digital designer extraordinaire, I have a customised makeover for my blog :) Every few months she tells me she has some new elements to play with and then surprises me with a new look...how lucky am I?! 
I love, love, love this gorgeous retro look, and asked her to make me some bottlecap buttons for my sidebar...and she did! Love them :)


Just a quick card share today. I attended a 21st last night and had to make  a card as I forgot to buy one. I am a very average card maker! Scrapping is no problem, but shrink that format down to card size and I have a mild panic attack LOL!!

Today was one of those rare Sunday afternoons when we had nothing to do! No plans, no parties, no jobs...all free, fun time. After much begging, the kids were allowed to play with the hose and the dinky little plastic pool for a little while, even though it was the middle of the day and stinking hot! They had a blast!

It took me right back to when my sisters and I were kids and used to spend hours in the backyard with hoses, sprinklers, slip-and-slides and wading pools...so much simple, clean (pardon the pun) fun :)
