Fathers Day Stall - Gifts

-
Hi Everyone,

Sorry I've been unavailable for a while now..... I've been busy organising the school fathers day stall at my kids school. I was very lucky to have some wonderful mum's and dad's making some of the gifts and even some of the kids at school pitched in.

We ended up with enough gifts for 850 students to buy a few things for their dad's.

But now I can't wait to get back into some scrapbooking. Of course my scrapbooking skills did come in handy .... turning rubbish into gifts.... Like my seed raising kits, my desktop zen gardens and money boxes as well as the photo thingys for the fridge... I loved the soap on a rope (the saying by Bill Cosby made it: " Fatherhood is pretending the thing you want most in the world is soap on a rope) or the cool shaving brush kits that say: "Fatherhood is like shaving. No matter how good a job you do today you still have to get up and shave again tomorrow".... Or my washing powder scoops filled with 'love' lollies that say " a scoop full of love from me to you to show how much I care"............anyway enjoy: hope you get some great ideas for your own fundraising activities.....

Hi Everyone, Well if you've made it this far you know I'm the last blog for you to hop to.... I am the owner of Kith and Kin Stamp Co and I am so grateful to those of you who have played along. Alyce's colour along's are always so informative and full of great info I know you will have learnt lots. We feel very honoured that she has chosen one of our stamps. I love colouring and really only got interested in using copics after I saw Alyce's lovely colouring.... that then got me started on creating my own stamps so I could decide the images I wanted to colour. My colouring is of me... Kyra Mermaid which you can buy in my facebook store  https://www.facebook.com/kithandkinstampco/app_150178545006427 . For the next week I'm going to have some extra surprises and specials for those of you who are keeping an eye on my Facebook Page.

We've all got one.

50 Ideas to Get Organized and Enjoy Your Scrapbooking Hobby

-
Scrapbooking is a wonderful hobby! Besides being relaxing and fun, it also allows you to be creative and to spend quality time with your family and friends. Plus, it results in a storybook of lifelong memories. One very important element of scrapbooking is getting it all organized. This includes, but is not limited to: storing all of your supplies in an organized fashion so they can be found instantly when you need them. remembering what supplies to pick up at the store, and eliminating duplicate purchases. finding time to research new and creative ways to spruce up your scrapbooks. finding enough time to enjoy the art of scrapbooking in your busy life. TELL A STORY. Plan your photos, before you shoot. Instead of taking random shots of someone standing here, or someone else sitting there, tell a story. For example, let's say it's Halloween. You may plan on taking four photos of your child: on the hayride taking him/her to the pumpkin field.
