I love Tuesdays!!!

I just don't know what I would do if I had to work on a Tuesday!! The hours I work mean I am still full time, but because of having to work until 8pm every Wednesday (yuk!!) and work every other Saturday (serious double Yuk!!) I am lucky enough to have every Tuesday off!!
I have the whole house to myself (well, except for my kitty!!) and its just BLISS!! I have a little unwritten rule that all boring work (ie housework) must  be finished by 11am! After that I make a pot of tea and head to my Craft room for a day of me, me, me and creative fun!!

Here's what I made today:

April Go Go Yearbook pages






















Here's a little close up of my crackle-effect butterflies! I just adore my Martha Stewart butterfly punches!!


Document 2010 April pages:

I really really enjoyed making these pages. I managed to use up the scraps of my favourite papers and they look great (even if I do say so myself!!)  I used some new micro letters for the subtitle:
And I used one of my new Petaloo blooms for a bit of prettiness:

A page about my best friend's little girl:
I just can't believe that Elana is 9 years old! She tried out to be a rosebud last weekend and was successful!!
As a rosebud she will get to dress in a pretty dress, wear a mini crown and ride with the carnival queen in the town's summer carnival. She is soooooo excited and I am incredibly proud of her! I am doubly proud as she wore a dress I bought her for her audition!! Hence the theme of the page.  It is my first full page using the April Go Go kit.  Its taken me ages to get started with it but I wanted to do my Go Go Yearbook pages first, hence the delay with creating!  Anyway, here is the page:

I used the amazing pins from the kit to highlight the number 9 on a tape measure for her age:

As well as these projects I also got 3 projects half started and all packed for the Thursday evening crop at Fairfield. I'm at work until late tomorrow so today was the only chance I had.  I feel all organised and its great!!
Hope you like the pages :0)

Well, yes Cal, I do love your pages!! The crackle butterflies are sweet and I like the blue-green background paper (glimmer mist?).
The page of your little friend is so pretty and she has a gorgeous smile!

Mini books & page are lovely.

The lo is so pretty. I liked the April gogo kit but now I have it I am struggling to use it, don't seem to have any photos that suit!

See you at the crop tonight
