those summer feels

inspired by Stefanie on the Studio Calico blog.  I just had to do a his and hers and I had the perfect surfing pics for it.  

one happy day for each falling leaf you catch

I knew that leaf punch would come handy some day

happiness is enjoying the little things in life

dancing leaves

This one is inspired by the orange leaves I had in my stash. Good ol Prima. I've been binging on Game of Thrones for the last little while in the lead up to the launch of season 8 so this one has been sitting on my desk for a bit longer than it should have been.

that's my boy

See that faint X on his hand. That was from the first day of the month and if you have it on your hand you can't get done for 'pinch and a punch, first day of the month'. Obviously it took awhile to wash off, but I used that faint symbol as a jump off point for the backing paper and some of the embellies.

Large photo layouts. What's not to love?

Using a recent Paige Evans cutfile made this one so easy. No journaling required.

He's a bit of a gold star in my eyes.

music award

This was the beginning of your musical journey and playing music just clicked with you. 

just hanging about

Ephemera from various Cocoa Vanilla Studio Collections. I love how most collections can all coordinate together. 

in these moments time stood still

It was so great to see Mr S be rewarded for his work at school, and the homework at home to work on his handwriting. circa 2012

splash in tumby

 How much do we love Tumby Bay??   We love Tumby Bay ....this.... much

immersion

the journaling says it all.

just hanging out

Lots of different products on this one, but it all stemmed from the colours in the photo and the Cocoa Vanilla Happiness collection

honeymoon

His and hers layouts for their albums. While creating this first one I had a little accident which meant I had to print it out again and fix the typos that I hadn't seen first time round. So the first LO is grammatically correct. The second one isn't. I count 3 boo boos. I think that's all of them.

ginuary

This is a list of cocktails I made while on summer holidays in Tumby Bay. All in practise of working out my faves come time for #scrapshack 

All in all it was lots of delightful flavours and I've come away with many versions of Pina Coladas. Anything with Malibu must have been my fave base. 

hello summer

I found the inspo for this one on Pinterest but try as I might I can't find who posted it as it linked to an instagram page that has since been shut down. 

I love the simplicity of it and the circles cut with the cameo. 

gappy

Clean and simple monochrome. Classy all the way. 

On the back of the LO I've adhered the hand written notes to the Tooth Fairy.

From tiny beginnings, mighty things grow. Hands and feet grow so fast.
