"A Pene for your thoughts...": Changes are coming!

Cough...cough...sneeze! Excuse the dust!
Been a while since I've been here again, I think I am the worst blogger in history!
A lot of things happening this year, the main one being my return to uni to complete a Graduate Diploma of Education so that next year I can be a Primary School teacher. It was quite a bit of getting my head around returning to study, but with the support of my wonderful family, I finished the first semester with flying colours. I have one week left of holidays before I start the next semester of craziness.
On to scrapping news - I have been freelancing this year as I couldn't commit to a minimum number of LOs a month as I've had to put study first. But my very generous designers have been happy for me to do this so it's been great.
The sad news was the closing of Digiridoo Scraps last week. The 'Roo was my home for the last three years, I was there from it's inception with a number of girls from the old Snap' N Scrap site.
The good news is I will still be creating for Bree of Scrap'it Designs, who will be opening new store soon. And the lovely Aly of Truman Studio invited me to join her team, mainly for hybrid. Again, these lovely ladies understand my commitments are are letting me freelance for now. So I get to do what I love, when I can without the pressure.
Aly is at Two Peas in a Bucket and this week I have made a few things.

This LO is made using All About Me Boy and features my two older boys in a display of affection that makes all the arguing less significant!

I also used Pennants Template by Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs, available at Scrap Orchard. The font is Rough Typewriter and I used Bittersweet Vintage photo action by Coffee Shop.

My beautiful sister in law had a baby girl two weeks ago. My kids are all completely in love with her already! Here is a LO of her with my daughter, using All About Me Girl by Truman Studio.

I used Third Time is the Charm 5 Template by Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs, available at Scrap Orchard. Fonts are Love Ya Like A Sister and Rough Typewriter. Faded Daydream photo action by CoffeeShop.

While I was on a creative roll, I also made this name frame for my new niece.
