It's Official...I'm a Nerd !

Check it out HERE !!!
I am on the inaugural NVS Design Team !
NVS (Nerdy * Victorious * Scrappers) is a monthly collage challenge blog, and right up my alley !
If you're looking for something a little different, why not come and play along this month.
The new collage, and our DT samples will be up on the 7th (US time), and all entries are due by the last day of the respective month.
In the meantime, here is the collage on which we based our DT submissions -

It's only a short DT term, but I am so thrilled to be apart of this unique challenge site. Hope to see lots of you Aussie girls joining in ! The prize for January is quite special...and supplied by the generous Ali of

The Lovely Teaspoon. More details to follow !

In other news... my role at A Thousand Little Things has come to an end. The business has closed it's doors, and the DT are no longer required. It was a challenging position, in terms of products, but I am thankful to Anneke for the opportunity, and the lovely packs I received during my DT time. I wish Anneke and her family all the best...thanks for having me !

And finally... THE BIG ONE...

If you have ever wanted to be on a design team, then you really MUST have a go at this one !

Sonia is a wonderfully generous boss lady, with her time, scrapping knowledge and DT bonuses !

The Forever Always forum is a genuinely caring, family orientated site, where you will always feel at home. There is always someone around who will listen, offer advice, help out or whatever.

And the Forever Always DT girls are just the bees knees !!!

They are talented clever chicky babes, who never cease to amaze me !

Have I convinced you yet ?
