Fete day

What a perfect day for the school fete...the sun is brilliant and there's no wind, mud or freezing conditions! Yesterday a whole tribe of mums, dads and staff started putting together all the preparations....every year I am amazed at the amount of baking that arrives to be packaged and priced....the tables are filled to overflowing and heaving under a weight of sugar, chocolate and all things nice!! It was a long day setting up and carting gear here and there but well worth it when you see how lovely it all looks....I did come home with a new bag, apron, various slices, teatowells and jam, so we are well set up for a bit! I was thrilled the the end result of my 'Mondrian' wall of canvas's above and the greeting cards with a photo on the front and the recipie inside look fantastic - thank you Helen for ALL your talent and hard work xx

Only 2 sleeps to go!!!

I'm in the thick of getting things ready for the weekend...my new cards are nearly ready and I've got some new framed images I'm very pleased with!

It will be an operation planned with military detail and I have pages of lists so I don't forget anything! Two lovely friends are having a child each for the afternoon while DD is my driver around town while I'm shooting the wedding...my Mum is doing the markets for the afternoon and packing up...my assistant will meet me in the city...... taxis, gluten free food, car parks, locations, camera gear, car keys, car seats....you name it!!!

It will be a huge relief to actually just be at the markets on Sunday and have a coffee x

Dixi certainly isn't stressed or busy with me....I just had to

heave her off the edges of some cards!!

Hope to see lots of you Sunday - come and say hello

Portside 8am -4pm 12th July.

Back to reality!

This morning it's freezing cold here... I've got the heater on high so I can get into making things for the Boutique Markets on Sunday at Portside 8am-1pm (let's hope it's a bit warmer then early in the morning!!)

I've been collecting nice papers to make into greeting cards and gift tags and yesterday I made some up and I love the result of something a bit different with round photographs and machine stitching over the top.

If you're in Brisbane this weekend....come and visit me at the markets!
