A layout, and a FREEBIE!
Finally you say!! I know, i know….slack-arse i am, i forgot you all again! LOL Well, i’ve been working on my ‘changes’ and had a bit of trouble, so it’s been delayed for a little bit longer. But, i have a freebie to tide you over - i did a layout of my littlest munchkin Dusti, using my ‘Bubblegum Baby’ kit and have made a QP out of it too. Hope you like it!
Here’s the LO of my cutie.
And here’s your freebie QP!

Spring Sorbet - DSO March CC
Oky doky, i’m back! I’ve been busy lately with school stuff (as i might have said before, i’m President of our P&C Association), and just spending time with the fam lately, so have been a lazy blogger….but i come with a peace offering! LOL Here’s my mini for KimB’s Colour Challenge over at DSO. Again, love the colours for this month, and they’re so perfect for spring over there (it’s just come into Autumn here in Oz)! So, without further ado, here it is - Spring Sorbet. Enjoy! *I’ve uploaded it to both 4shared and MediaFire so you have a choice of downloads*
Let me know how you go with MediaFire, or if you don’t like it, i’ve never used it before…. Cheers xx

Some Patience Please
We are begging for your patience in regard to receiving your coupon codes to download ‘Spirit of Summer’, the Australian Bushfire Collab.
Carolyn is the only one who receives the copy of your donation and is working as quick as possible to send out your download coupons.
All the mail requests gets placed in a queue in the order that they are received.
If you do not receive your coupon within 24 hrs then by all means email again, but please consider that there is only one person able to handle the coupons (and she really does need to sleep sometime, lol), so it may take more than 1/2 hr.
This kit will be available for a while yet, don’t stress, so rest assured you’re not going to miss out!! Thanks.

Spirit of Summer - A Very Special Collab!
Spirit of Summer is a charity collab benefiting the Victorian bushfire Appeal. Not only has this effected Australians, but human beings the world over. 29 Australian and international designers have banded together to help support many Australians, animals and communities decimated by one Australia’s worse national disasters.
What happened? On Saturday, Feb 7, the temperature in Melbourne was 33′c by 9am. By noon it was 40′c and by 2.50 pm soared to 47.9′c (a state record). Thousands of people were also about to start running from the inferno that would become one of Australia’s worst peacetime disasters. Trees ignited in the blink of an eye. By the time people heard the roar, it was too late to flee ahead of the flames. Unfortunately no one or thing could have stopped this inferno that wiped out communities, bushland, and lives within minutes. Many towns now cease to exist! After watching interviews with survivors, many say that they cant put into words what they went through, saw or felt on that day. Here are just a few pictures (courtesy of Google, The Age, SBS & ABC Aust.) of this horrible disaster:
Why is this charity kit different? No money will change hands at Scrap N Tag (our host website). We are asking for your support by donating DIRECTLY to one of the following charities:
Donations can be made here:
The Salvation Army or here: Australian Red Cross
What do I get for my donation and where: You will be helping the people of Victoria, Australia most importantly, but you will also receive this amazing MEGA kit (see below).
There are 167 papers, 326 elements, 2 Alphas and 8 glitter styles from the ‘glitter queen’ Flergs as well! WHOA!
How amazingly fabulous is that and you can receive all of this for as little as a $5.00 donation. (**Vouchers will be emailed upon receipt of proof of Donation**)
But that’s not all (no, there’s no free set of steak knives! LOL)! For showing us how much you all really care, if you donate over $10 you not only get the MEGA kit but receive a Quickpage Album too!
WOW how awesome is that! To receive your Charity collab go here at Scrap N Tag (**Don’t forget your receipt of donation**) which will tell you WHO AND WHERE to send the copy of your receipt too. You will then be sent a VOUCHER to collect this GI-NORMOUS KIT!!
Donated?! Wear your blinkie proudly: (made by Michelle Filo)

If you can spare a thought for all those at the moment without a roof over their heads, who have lost EVERYTHING (and there are a LOT of them), and for the wildlife without their normal habitat all destroyed by fire, your $5/10 will go a long way in helping the Charity’s listed above to restore some dignity and hope in those that need it the most.
I’d love to say a HUUUUGE thanks to my mate Vicki (DigiLover) for getting the ball rolling and asking me to be part of it, and for organising this wonderful collab, and Carolyn for hosting this at her website, collating and doing the previews - a huge feat! Also to Charlie, who wrote this whole blurb! You have all done an amazing job ladies. Thankyou to all of my fellow designers too, without your generosity and kindness this Charity Kit would never have happened…well done! And can i just add to my fellow Australians … ‘Aussie Aussie Aussie OI! OI! OI!’ The Spirit of Australia is alive and kickin’! =D
Here’s a preview of my little bit!
