Finally Made It Back to Blogland!

Hello fellow crafters,

Life has been busy and stressful these last few weeks and I haven't achieved much on the crafty stakes!
I did escape for 12 days and went to visit a friend on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland and then a friend on Norfolk Island. It was a lovely relaxing time but boy have the last 3 weeks been an emotional roller coaster! Consequently my crafting mojo has vanished, I think I left it on Norfolk Island! I had every intention of entering the Scrapbooking Memories Masters competition, which closes next week, but no mojo means no work to enter!

The historic Kingston area on Norfolk Island. As you can see absolutely beautiful. 
I did create this layout using a selfie I took down on the Kingston jetty.

Tomorrow I am teaching my monthly art journal class at Made With Memories and the ladies wanted an Asian inspired page this month and this is what I came up with.

Here is a sneak peak of September's page. I had to go back and use my favourite colour, yay teal! It took a bit of effort today to get this finished but having said that I am really happy with the end result.

I did go to my friend's place a few week ends ago to create while she worked on her Donna Downey 48 Weeks' page, this is what I create inspired by what I saw.

Well that's about it folks, Happy crafting!
take care, Helen xx
