Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop – Never Ever Grow Up!

Its always so much fun to be hopping with the amazing Around The World On Wednesday Team, so if you are new here it is ever so lovely to meet you!

This months theme really touched my heart- Never Ever Grow Up! When my husband and I were first married we were told I was unable to have children due to having severe endometriosis and terrible scar tissue. Little did we know that three months later I would be pregnant with our first son and go on to have 4 more pregnancies with 4 sons earth side and twin boys in heaven. I am not saying it was an easy journey to have our family but they really are my little miracles.

Declan, Sean, Patrick and Ronan.

Jump forward to today and we are navigating so many new and wonderful things with our boys and lets be honest some that make this little mumma’s heart sad. Our eldest son Sean will be moving into his first home as its just finished being built, our number two son Paddy is changing direction and moving into residential plumbing rather then industrial plumbing, Declan has moved into loans/banking and loving living in the new unit and our baby Ronan is in the last few months of his senior year, working out where he will go to university next year.

I can not quite believe that my little boys are all grown up and my once full home is soon going to be quite empty. I think we always hope that our little ones never grow up or we could slow down time but in reality life moves on and I have to be proud of the strong and wonderful men we raised them to be.

So for me the theme Never Grow Up makes me thing of all the amazing holidays we had at Woodgate Beach. My husband often couldn’t get away so this little mumma would pack up her boys and drive 45 minutes down the road to our slice of Paradise. I learnt how to fish so I could teach my four little boys this skill and I even acquired my boat license which always makes me giggle as I get terrible motion sickness….. but I did it!

This is my favourite place in the whole world!

The endless hours of fun they had a Woodgate, digging for pippies, making sandcastles, surfing the non existent waves and later on in life checking out the pretty girls walking by still makes me smile. I know when my boys have their children they will make more beautiful memories at Woody.

So I decided to create a ocean scape scrapbook page so I can capture the memories and the amazing friendship/ bond that my not so little boys have.

The beautiful Waves of Inspiration Stamp Set and coordinating Waves Dies were perfect for this scrapbook page and oh so easy to create!

To create this page find as many colour blues and teals in our beautiful Designer Series Paper as you can find and tear across the page in a curvy manner. Do not over think it, just tear away until you have lots of strips to create with. I also added the beautiful Layering Designs Vellum in between some layers so it could just peak out. Layer all your strips randomly with Dimensionals and Tombow glue to create the dimension to the ocean scene. I hope you have some fun and rip up your Designer Series Paper, its so therapeutic.

As always I will have a list of all the products used to create this project at the end of my blog for you shopping pleasure. Plus DON’T FORGET you will be rewarded with Saleabration goodies when you place an order over $90 in my online store

Missing out on celebrating Backstage in Las Vegas Missing out on celebrating  Backstage in Las Vegas with my incredible Stampin’Up family is tough, all thanks to my stubborn heart! 💔 
But you know what they say, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! 🍋 Thanks to my amazing husband, we took a trip down memory lane to Montville, where we celebrated our honeymoon 25 years ago. We revisited those cherished memories, and it turned out to be the most beautiful day. ❤️ 
I am so grateful for the love, support, and the silver lining in every situation. Here's to making the most out of life's twists and turns!

Today we ventured out to a bar/cafe I spotted on T Today we ventured out to a bar/cafe I spotted on TikTok and I am so glad we did! The food was absolutely delicious and we loved the atmosphere! 

Illusion by no.5 is an extraordinary 2D bar and cafe that literally feels like you've stepped into an optical illusion, tucked away off Winn Lane in Ann St, Fortitude Valley.

✂️💌Crafting often allows us to explore and appreciate things from different dimensions, much like how this cafe's optical illusion design provides a unique perspective. Just as you stepped into a 2D bar that felt multidimensional, crafting lets us create and view things from various angles, enhancing our creativity and perception.
Make sure you check this gorgeous cafe out when your next in Brisbane!

Guess what? I just checked off a major bucket list Guess what? I just checked off a major bucket list item – I finally made it to the Ekka! 🎡🍿 And let me tell you, it was an absolute blast!

From indulging in all the delicious and diverse foods to exploring the show bags galore, my day was filled with non-stop fun. But that's not all – I couldn't resist diving into the world of cards, scrapbook entries, and those oh-so-intricate cakes.I might even pop one in myself next year!💌

I was lucky to have my son Declan, my sister Belinda and my beautiful niece Lucy by my side, making the day even more memorable. The laughter, the excitement, and the joy of experiencing the Ekka together was truly heartwarming. 💖

Thank you for following along on this incredible journey with me and if you haven't been to the Ekka before make sure to put it on your list – it's an experience you won't want to miss!

Yesterday was such a blast celebrating Keira’s 1 Yesterday was such a blast celebrating Keira’s 13th birthday! 🎂

I hosted a custom-made Stampin’Up! birthday party using Keira’s favourite stamp set, Birds Eye View! 

We started the day with a strawberry mock-tail and then crafted the morning away making 2 cards, a coordinating gift box and a super cute mobile phone charm. Which I must say was a hit! 

Keira and her friends had such a fun morning  learning a new craft, savoured  a sumptuous platter and enjoying the most delicious birthday cake made by her very talent mum!
