...Oh my gosh, winter's icy chill is upon us - freezing my akuna ma tahtahs off here, lol.
Any hoo, since my previous blog (which was a while ago), sorry, you might of guessed - I've been
super-duper busy.
Went to The Paper Peacock camp at Glentui, where I created a cool colourful album for myself and made my first box in card for mum's mother's day card, I've gotta tell ya - that was the beginning of the end for me - absolutely love this card, hence the many other box in a card that follow :) Designed a layout for the Sunday learn a layout group. Made a couple more dresses, one for a very rare date night with my husband and I also made a very warm woolly winter coat. Started training for my new full-time job with New Zealand Post and I stumbled upon a very fortunate opportunity to use my diploma - woop woop, will definitely keep you updated...exciting times!
I really need to get a new camera, my crappy phone camera just doesn't cut it - so I apologise for the poor quality pics.

Opportunity knocks...
Last year I gained a certificate in Small Business Management through Te Wananga O Aotearoa and subsequently signed up to do the Certificate in Money Management this year. It has been awesome, the things I've learnt and most of all the people I have met. One of those like minded people I met was Louise, she has her own business in designing and retailing vintage (more specifically 'Rockabilly') fabrics....Yes! Oh my goshhh! Right up my alley - I love that style...So we got to talking, needless to say watch this space!
Heres the link if you would like to check out her website Lady Lou.
