Sooo it has been a while since my last post hasn't it??? I have been so busy - and I know that is a terrible excuse! I will get better I promise....You want to know what I have been up to????

Well....since my last post I have:

• Celebrated my Nana's 80th birthday!
• Celebrated my Mum's birthday and of course Mother's Day.....
• Had a family reunion
• and done some serious 4wding!

Things have been pretty constant and I have been making the most of every minute I can.

The shop is going well! Tuesday night classes are a blast with all the regular girls: Susan, Erica, Kimbly, Heather and Adele....and sometimes Louise comes along too! I hope some more of you drop in soon! We are planning on building a fence on the side and Stick 'n' Giggle will have it's own entrance....that should be happening real soon! I will post all about it when it is done!

Well this time I promise it won't be so long between posts....Tomorrow I will share some pics of my recent layouts!

Happy Scrappin!

Here are the pics of the shop I said I would add....

So here it is - my new space! Stick 'n' Giggle is right at home in the rumpus room of my house. Floor space is that same as I had at the shop - it is just a different shape so it feels like there is more room. The workshop table has its' own place too under some nice bright fluro lights and the ducted air con keeps us nice and cool. We got to test it out last night with a full house at the card class girls (you know who you are!) I think everyone enjoyed the atmosphere and had a great time (other than Bonnie (the dog) wanting to go home with everyone and Dude (the other doggie) wanting to come and make cards with us LOL!

Within the next couple of weeks, John and I will be busy busy busy putting in a side fence in and moving some cars (I hope) so that the entrance will be totally separate from the house! I hope you will come and visit soon!

All set up....

Yeah I know....it has been a long time between posts yet again....I have just been so busy putting Stick 'n' Giggle back together - for a while it looked a little like Humpty Dumpty after he fell off the wall *sigh*....I will take some pics tomorrow and let you all see how spacious and roomy the new look SnG is and hopefully you will come and visit the store at home!

I am even hoping to have the remainder of my Prima order arrive this week - that means all new yummy flowers and the papers from the new ranges that hadn't yet arrived - it also means new BLING!!!!!!! I can't wait to see it all!

I miss you all so much! Keep your eyes out for the remainder of April and May calendar coming soon!

Happy Scrappin!
