This week......

This week has past me by in such a blur.....I really haven't stopped and am looking forward to this coming weekend when I get to enjoy a little R&R back "home".

Monday saw the launch of the Bad Girls Top Designer contest - with over 300 eager students signed up and raring to go as the school gates opened wide at the Bad Girls Design Academy.

Prima Flower Girl, Carri kicked off this annual event with an amazing class, teaching how you can effectively layer on your pages and the gallery is certainly hotting up, as all the eager beaver students are turning in their assignments....go check out the eye candy right here.

If you want to see Cari in action then check out this super cool tutorial right here and whilst you are there - take a look at this bundle of stash Prima has up for grabs!

Tuesday came and went - most of my day was spent going backwards and forwards and around the block, as I sorted myself and my eyes out! Thankfully the stitches are all gone and things are progressing along nicely - another week or so and I should be able to put some slap back on my face - I hate not being able to wear makeup - especially my mascara!

Wednesday - ummmm after spending the most fretful night laying in my bed with my stomach in knots - I managed to get myself organised and off to Uni I trotted. YIKES!
As I enrolled for my course I must have been stopped at least 10 times by my friends kids.... who all started their convos with me by saying "Oh Tracie - I didn't know you worked here!" - ermmmm " I don't.....I'm a student"....how old did I feel?????
Anyways there are a couple other "more mature" students on my course and I'm really looking forward to meeting up with them at the back of the classroom in a couple of weeks time.

Thursday - shopping....for hours and hours and hours....purchases made - two outfits - one for my nephews Christening this weekend and one for the "Wedding of the Year" next weekend!
I can't believe the wedding is just over a week away....I'm so excited and can't wait to see the grooms face when he sees his "wife to be "walk up the aisle - she really does look like a Princess....and I know this for fact - because I was with her when she chose her dress :D

Friday - Oh heck! That's today - how did that happen??? - it kinda crept up on me a little too quickly!
Well today Ive been a busy bee and have spent the day adding the final touches to a rather spooky little project for Karen at Charmed Cards and Crafts.......



The day isn't over yet and I have a pile of projects all at various stages waiting for me to go complete them....I best get back to my scraproom and go finish them off

Thanks to those who left the book recommendations - I'm off to the book store next week to collect my pile of books for Uni, so will check them out then :D
J has almost finished The Boy in Striped Pyjamas....we have two chapters to go - he looked up at me last night as we finished reading and said "please Mom - tell me what I think is going to happen, doesn't" - now my boy, that would be telling!

Have fun and thanks for popping by
