An emotional day and a card for PCJ mid challenge reminder!!

Hello to all my wonderful followers!!! Sorry for the small amount of posts over the past 5 weeks!! Summer holidays have just finished here in OZ for most of us and we actually spent most of it away!!! Which was fantastic and we finished off the holidays yesterday going to see the stage show Chitty Chitty Bang Bang which was awesome!!! So with the holidays being over it meant my baby started school today!!! Although I did not cry (I did have to fight back the tears) I hated leaving Logan today!! I even asked him if he could stay at home with me but he said he couldn't he had to go to school!! So as I slowly walked out the door and headed home he was busy chatting with the teacher about his picture he had just drawn!! I think the hardest thing for me with him starting school is that I now have to look for a job and that I am not looking forward to as I have not worked in 8 years!! I know I will enjoy it once I get a job but I just want to be there at pick up for my kids!!

 Logan's first day of Prep!!

Liam's first day of grade 2 and Logan's first day of school!!

 

Now because I have been so busy with the kids over the school holidays and my camera decided to retire (so unfortunatley I had to buy a new one :) ) I missed the start of Paper Crafting Journey's  For a Girl Challenge which is sponsored by Kenny K Downloads. So I thought I'd do a mid way challenge post to remind you all that the challenge is still going!!



I used Download Diva from kenny k downloads and coloured her in with tria markers!!The stripy paper is from my stash, I then die cut two spellbinder peony's, added a banner and wrote Girls Rock on it. Added some plastic ribbon(not sure of the real name) and finished the card off with the flowers and buttons!! Oh and the Happy Birthday rubon which is a bit lost on the card!!

So if you have visted and would like to join in the challenge head on over to the Paper Crafting Journey blog for more details and see what the rest of the team have been up to.

I'll be back later on with another post so I hope you'll come back soon!!
