Hello Peeps, this is my very first Blog.

I love flying by the seat of my pants and not know what on earth I am actually doing.

I am a mum of 3 teenage kids and wife to one husband!  We live in Adelaide, South Australia but we have lived in Perth, Western Australia and Newcastle, New South Wales.

I am an avid paper crafter and gardener.  I definitely don't like housework!!!  I have worked in the Insurance Industry and have been a stay at home mum now for a few years picking up parttime work in Hospitality.  I am a retired Breastfeeding Counsellor and am currently contracted to teach Paper Craft, Stamping and more!! with one of the local councils and I love it!!

It is currently the September/October school holidays and the weather here in Adelaide is only for the ducks.  It has been miserable here now for a couple of weeks!  I'm not sure where Spring has gone as it certainly still feels like winter.  Lots of rain and very little sunshine and lots of flash flooding around Adelaide and the Hills.

Perfect weather to stay indoors and Blog!!  I look forward to teaching myself how to use Blogger and hope that I can share some of my memory keeping and paper crafting creations with you over the coming weeks, months and years.

So Stay Tuned!! And have a lovely day!!
