Friends 24-7
 On Saturday I spent a great day in Camperdown, Vic., with my wonderful team member Maureen and her group of Ink Link demonstrators for a training and stamping day. It was so nice to sit, stamp and chat with like-minded people (aka fellow stamping addicts).   Maureen joined my team when I was still pretty green and it’s

Just Jawing for Fun
  Tonight was the start of a new round of Stamp Club, and it was a great nightl I’ve known these ladies for a while now and they are soooo lovely – I’m rapt that I’ll be stamping with them once a month at least.

Boho Blossoms Punch
Hi stampers! Hope you had a great weekend. We spent lots of time outside playing cricket! DS8 is playing for the school team for the first time, and we collected his cricket gear this weekend. Sooo funny seeing him try to run with his bat, pads, helmet, gloves, box. *lol* It was definitely a scrapbooking moment. Lots of smiles and laughter and happy kids, so it must have been a good weekend!  As promised, I’m back with some info on the Boho Blossoms Punch. This is the fabbo punch that was a last minute entry to the FREE PUNCH giveaway with every $85 purchase from the
