16th Of Feb...Never a good news day

2009-02-16T17:05:00.002+11:00

Well it appears that no good news comes our way on Feb 16th....

Two years ago today I rushed my little man to hospital lifeless, as it turned out we were told he was type 1 diabetic, he would be insulin dependent for life. Although it has changed our life dramatically it has not hindered it and we do what is needed to get by, but today's date and the emotion I felt on that day 2 years again never leaves my mind, it still brings me to tears thinking about it.

But today another blow to our family, Hubby went to work today as normal only to return home at 9am with the news that his company has gone into administration and he and 499 other employees no long have employment and there is no money to pay them any entitlements etc... So with me not working and now him, I may soon have to face the fact that we my loose our dream home. But I have not given up hope yet, my SU business is still making me some money and I will not give into the bad news day that we have come to know as Feb 16th. I am teaching a class tonight and I am determine to enjoy it.

Thanks for reading,
Til next time....Happy Stamping...

Exciting News......

2009-01-07T21:42:00.002+11:00

One is that my baby girl is 10 months old today..OMG where has the time gone? I had better start preparations for her 1st Birthday, really soon.

But the big news is I have a website.. Beyond Ink..

So, what are you waiting for?? Go and check it out here and tell me what you think. It is still in the creating stage, I still have to upload photo's to the gallery, but I plan on doing this over the next few days, its a slow process as I first have to actually take picture's.

But the plan is to have all of my Stampin'Up!® over there and then I will probably still use this blog to keep you all up to date with the family etc.

I am off to do a bit more playing with the site, so until next time..

Happy Stampin'

Am I bad or what???

2008-12-29T16:23:00.002+11:00

I think I have to be the worst blogger around.....
I know its been ages since I posted, but life has just been madness over the past few months, but I am hopping that 2009 is going to be a better year all round.

One of my new years resolution is to keep on top of blogging, so stay turned lets see if I can keep to my word this time. Hubby gave me a new laptop for Christmas so that got to make me want to come in here more often.

Now that Christmas is out of the way I have been focusing my energy on my Stampin'Up!® business, I have been planning some regular classes and get together's, that hopefully you will all enjoy. I am also researching the ins and out of a website so to me its all very exciting and I can wait to see when the creative SU journey is going to take me.

I am drafting my new years newsletter atm, so if you would like a copy, and want to stay upto date with everything Stamping Up, please sign up in the box on the right.

When I figure out how to edit my photos on this laptop I will share some of my latest creations..

until next time...keep smiling...

I am still alive...lol...

2008-11-01T17:20:00.004+11:00

Just a quick one to let everyone know that I am still alive and kicking....

It has been a pretty eventful month in the Beyer house hold this month and not all of it good. So I just wanted to let you all know that I haven't forgot about you and I will be back very soon with some exciting new offers for you all...

National Card making Day

2008-09-23T19:23:00.003+10:00

Busy, Busy, Busy...That's what it has been like around here. I am having so much fun doing what I do best, chatting, creating and eating..need I say more...lol

This is what it has been like over the past few weeks as I have had workshop after workshop. I have really enjoyed watching stamping newbies create the most beautiful cards and scrap pages, they have even gone out of their comfort zones and added their own twist to their card or scrap page. I love how each person grows over the course of the workshop, they walk in the door saying I am not very creative, and leave extremely proud of what they have accomplished. If only everyone could enjoy there job as much as I do. Well you can drop me a line to find out how

What a busy Week....

2008-09-14T15:26:00.006+10:00

Well here we are nearly at the end of another weekend and what do I have to show for it...Not much.
Thank you everyone for your lovely comments and encouragement about this new adventure of mine, I really appreciate all the feed back. What have I been up to since last post....
All last week I had been busy making cards for our local community schools family fun day. So yesterday I spent the day outside at the fun day manning my craft stall. It was pretty quiet not a lot of people about, but still it was a nice day out, how often do you get a chance to sit around kid free and just chat to people for hours on end and not feel guilty? The weather was great and the rain held off until I last night, it was even good enough to let me get my line full of washing in.

Hi and welcome to my first ever blog post...

I am so excited to finally be blogging. My own little piece of the cyber world, Whoever would have thought that this was ever possible, yet here I am. I have followed the life journeys of many a cyber friend through their blogs and now its my turn to share a little about me and my journey.

Please keep stopping by, as I get into the swing of blogging I will endeavour to post regularly, well as regularly as one can with the day to day adventures that are involved with having two children a husband and a "normal" job! Hopefully you will see something inspiring, maybe even creative! This is the spot where I would like share a little about my family as well as a lot about my love and passion for paper crafts. So you can expect to see lots of photos of my creations with the odd family shot thrown in for good measure. I will leave you with a photo of me and my bubba "Sienna" on Fathers day, can you believe she is 6 months old already..

Until next time - happy creating.....
