Happy Father's Day


Happy Father's Day to all the special Dads out there. A big happy Father's Day to my Daddy dearest in Kal, my Pop in Perth and my wonderful husband Darryl. We spent the morning pretty much chilling which was really nice - for once. Darryl cooked a lovely BBQ breakfast - YUM! I am sure the day would have been much better for Darryl if his beloved Collingwood could have won their game! Well done Collywobbles - lets hope they find a pie warmer before the next game against the Crows!


Seekara had her first ever sports carnival on Friday. The kindy kids had just one race - the 25m sprint. They were all so adorable with their starting poses. Seekara came a very close second in her race - and she was so very proud to be wearing her ribbon. She could have come last and she would still have been gleaming from ear to ear. She spent the whole time down the track smiling. I was so proud of her, and i am sure all the parents were extremely proud of their kids - they all did such a great job. The Principal, teachers and volunteers for the day all did a terrific job too - the focus at South Newman is participation and not winning. The Principal pretty much called every one's name over the lines as they raced in and all the crowd cheered first to last - it was a great morning.

Now for some more layouts.......


Little Miss Serious Cheekah in this layout above - Nov 08. She still makes that face. This layout was completed using Kaiser papers, Kaiser flowers, Making memories felt, Kaiser pearls, Basic Grey alphabet stickers, Heidi Swapp mirror embellishments, Kaiser rubons and Autumn Leaves stamps. The Kaiser papers and rubons are available at Rtlicious separately or in the form of great value kits. Check out our kits section at www.rtlicious.com.au.
Doing the layout below this week reminds me of how much has happened this year and how quick it has gone - its nearly Christmas again! I am currently working out what to get everyone this year. I have been slack this year though - I usually start organising it all in July during all the mid year sales. Its so hard to work out what to get the daughter #2. Any suggestions please!!!???
The Christmas layout below was made using Basic Grey Wassail papers and embellishments, Chocolate chip alphabet stickers from Basic Grey, Paper from Scenic Route and bling from Kaiser. Watch the RTlicious space very closely in the next few weeks - we are getting the new Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses range very very soon!
A nice simple card below. I put this together with some scraps from my 1st layout. Papers, rubon, flowers and pearls from kaiser, Flower embellishment from Melissa Frances.The "Adorable" layout was put together with Kaiser papers, Making Memories ribbon, My Minds Eye diecut, Creative imaginations chipboard, My Minds Eye transparency, and Blue Eye Dezines felt. The photo was taken by the very talented Tracy Monaghan who is sadly moving on soon. I highly recommend Tracy as a photographer so if you want some beautiful pics for Christmas make sure you log on to www.therapycatchup.blogpsot.com to see how you can book Tracy before she leaves back home to NZ.
The layout below "Achieve" was put together using papers from the Basic grey Lemonade range, Basic Grey alphabet stickers, Fiskars Treading Water punch, Green Tara flower, Websters lace and Basic grey embellishments. This photo was taken last Nov when Rhonda and I won the Home Based - Small Business Award from the Newman Chamber of Commerce and Industry. We were so proud!

Wishing you all a beautiful spring week...

Hello this is Kentiger from Japan.

It is the first time I leave my comment to your blog.

I started my blog yesterday to introduce REAL Japanese Culture which you can't find in books.

If you have any questions about Japan, feel free to ask me.

Culture, travel, people, food, anything is OK.
