I'm Back!

Oh my gosh, I have had the busiest week! I meant to do a post before I left but it just never happened. So where was I? I went to Creative Block which was held at Print Blocks. I was thrilled when Imaginisce asked me to design a class for this event, and there was the lovliest bunch of ladies in the classes. I'm not sure if I can share the layout here just yet as I think it has been sent off to Scrapbooking Memories, but here's a little sneaky of it....


I also worked at the Imaginisce booth at the event with the lovely Bridget Bradley, who was here all the way from Salt Lake City in The States. Here we are demonstrating the I-Top and the new I-Rock tool....


The I-Rock is the coolest tool ever, I'm pretty sure everyone is going to want one! Before Bridget came over to Australia she decorated some shirts for us to wear using this new tool, and here we are showing how it can be used on this little pocket, which was part of our make and take. Doesn't it look awesome!


We did a huge amount of make and takes, and even though I was sitting down most of the time,(as you can see by that picture below!), by the third day I was pretty tired! (Might have had something to do with those late nights though!) To be honest, I wasnt really expecting Creative Block to be much of a big deal at all, but there were some amazing classes on offer, and loads of awesome make and takes. And so many people!!!


On Sunday we left the hotel and I took Bridget sight seeing for a couple of days. Of course I had to take her to Australia Zoo to see these cute little guys...


And then this morning she headed home to The States. The whole week seemed to go by so quickly, but I have to admit that I missed my kids terribly. It's definately the longest I have ever gone without seeing the little ratbags! I sure got lots of hugs when I picked them up from school this afternoon! Poor Emma though, she has been a bit sick with this weird skin infection, and when I took her to the doctors today to get a third, different, lot of antibiotics for her, the doctor said that if this lot doesnt help her then she will have to go into hospital. Please keep your fingers crossed for her! I'll be back with some scrappy shares soon :)

Oh, and if you havent entered yet, make sure you go here to enter my giveaway for an awesome stash of scrappy supplies!

Hi Sam! I've been stalking your blog for an update, lol. I was hoping you'd mention Creative Block - there hasn't been much word of it around blogs...or maybe it's just me? I had a scrappy friend, Ngaire, telling me she met you. I think she did your class? Your layout looks AMAZING!! Poor Emma - hope she gets better with this lot of antibiotics xx

Sounds like you had a fantastic time. The i-top looks so cool, i'm waiting for my LSS to get it so I can see it in real life!! Hope your daughter gets better soon with the new antibiotic.
