My Scrap Space

I have had many scrap spaces over years and I have been lucky enough to have whole rooms all to myself. In this house it is a little different.

It has been in the office ( which then moved and became another bedroom,) Then there was the back room which became a spare room for when people come down to stay. It must have been in nearly every room in this house and now it is finally contained to one nursery style cupboard in the dining room.

Like most dining room very rarely gets used so I have claimed it.  This is the cupboard just waiting for me to unlease the vinyl on it.  I also have a little trolley which is the home for my cricut and other bits that dont fit in the cupboard.

Now what to do with this.  It is sort of organising but need some major fine tuning.  I need to get Chloe over from Chloe and her two clip on koalas  to help since she is brillant at this sort of stuff.

I have even had my hubby helping out with organising my bazzill.  You know when you get that colour that could go orange or yellow.  He walks past I hold up the sheet of paper and ask "what colour:?"  whatever he saids that where it goes.  Simple people these men are sometimes and you gotta love them for that.

The world of Vinyl.

Ok I am totally hooked on the OMC Vinyl. I have been making things for the last two days and I am sure Dh is getting sick of the 'chirp chirp' but hey. One of the cartridges I got for Christmas for the Disney/Pixar Cars.  When we were in Disneyland Christian and Glen made Mater together.  So this has become Christian (31/2yrs) favourite for the moment so I vinyl-ed this one to put on his door.

Isn't it just so cute.

Then of course Tamika and Caitlin wanted one also sMichelle (BFF) let me have a play with her Tinkerbell and Friends Cartridge and it is so cute. I made some fairies for the girls bedroom door only two more to go but everyone knows fairies only come to clean rooms. Maybe this might help keep their room tidy.  hahaha - wishing thinking on my part but faires are very magical.

I also notice that there is, what they call Filigree,  these are so beautiful.  So I cut some out for me, with no where to put I have now decided to cricut my scrapbooking cupboard. 

Here is the start of a huge project.  The moral of this is please come around for coffee but don't stay too long all you find that you have been cricuted and vinyl-ed.

Scrappin Divas

There are a group of ladies that scrapbook on a tuesday night and we have adopted the name Scrappin Divas. Most of the ladies have mugs, pillows, t-shirts and thermo mugs. I am new to getting all of this stuff and it looks like the group has folded but I am keeping the name. Everyone got a pillow to sit on for scrap retreats and this is mine. It's first use will be on the 18th Feb 2011 for me first ever retreat. I cant wait.

The reason I bring thiss up is because she has introduced to the world of vinyl. Oh my goodness. This stuff is awesome and I am hooked. For my first try I decided to decorate my cricut for the retreat. Using my gypsy I got for Christmas I welded the letters from Opposite Attract Cartridge for the lettering. For the crown I used Gypsy Wandering. Here is the end product.

This stuff is awesome and I am going to have heaps of fun with the vinyl. Got the vinyl from Oh my Crafts website. Need to get some big 12x24 sheets to do Buzz and Woody for Christian room. He will love it.

Time to start scrapbooking the house. I am sure hubby is going to love it. lol Just in case you haven't noticed - PINK is back in.

Happy new year.

I would like to wish everyone a happy and fantastic new year.

One last Christmas card for 2010. I made this on behalf of the whole family for my in-laws. They shouted us all to Disneyland in 2010. The whole family signed it as a thank you.




I used the mickey mouse cartridge and Christmas Cheer. It has all the characters and you can even do a little of Toon town. This one also introducte me to Kindy glitz. If you have tried it then you must because that stuff is awesome. And it lasts for ever.

What a great day.

Always looking for more under the tree.



These reindeers and santa were made using my cricut. The first time it has really had a workout. lol The Christmas Cheer Cartridge was the one that I used. I had a blast making these.




Christmas has been and gone now and it was awesome. The kids loved their scooters and on boxing day we headed to the skate park for a test ride, A couple of falls but all is good.



A quiet day at home, good food, great company with family. What more could you ask for this Christmas. Feel very blessed.
