This kit rawks! The PP is divine and the embellies are perfect...the clock stamps rule! here's another LO I created using the stamps....

Tiki Tiki Tiki!!!

What a fantastic weekend party! We held an inaugural corn roast with a TIKI inspired theme! Fun stuff!!! Woohooo!!!


What is Tiki?.....think polynesian or luau without all the flowers. Very kewl !



















We served Mai Tai's (rum, amaretto, tiple sec, OJ, pineapple and grenadine), Mojitos (mint, lime, havana club rum, gingerale and sugar) and the Honolulu (OJ, lemon juice, pineapple juice, and gin)....oh and some jello shooters....just for fun!!!!!

Then for dinner we had the corn (boiled in a turkey fryer....great idea for large groups), BBQ pulled pork, meatballs, baby potatoes and salads.











Here's the shooter shack and the tiki bar ......





















I found an old bar, made a top for it and covered it with grass skirts! The light up sign was a bonus!


The shooter shack was the kids jungle gym with grass skirts and a bamboo mural around the bottom. The best part was that anyone wanting a shooter had to climb the ladder to get it and then exit the shack using either one of the slides or the tow line! What a hoot!!!


The highlights: We played the newlywed game....thanks Mel! ....had limbo contests and of course, had some very interesting karaoke on the rented sound system. Good thing I invited my neighbors! (wink)

Stayed up 'till almost 4am today......yawn.....I'm off to bed! G'night!

New things this Fall....

I'm very excited to see my feature in the upcoming Fall issue of Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine! I haven't gotten my hands on it yet, but I know the CS crew will do a great job with it!

I am debuting my Skribblz Art retail packs at Just Cre8 this September!!! Check it out! I'm so incredibly excited!!!! Having focussed on custom designs so far, I've tried to make the packs universally attractive and words that you can either use together or cut and separate. I'll post a link once they're in and then I'd love feedback!!!

Here's a sneak peek for now........

You can still order the designer series from the website or by contacting me.

Have a Great day!!!

As promised...

Here are some pics from our vacation. What a great week and Viamede was wonderful!!! Here's the view from our cabin...

The lake was a bit choppy that day.

They have tons of activities and really focus on the kids and water sports. So we took advantage of the skiing and tubing that was available.....

He was sooooo excited to learn to ski!

Today is a big day for my oldest...he's got a birthday today!!!! Happy day big guy!!!!

On a Skribblz note, my neck is NOT getting better but I have discovered the miracle of pain medication and muscle relexants.....this combination is slowly allowing me to get some production done. It's a slow process at the moment, but I hope to be well soon. I just wish my doctor didn't have to be on vacay for the month!

Happy August Ladies!
