About Me




  
My name is Donna. I am {cringe}.... Well, I am 41 years old, but I certainly don't feel like it! Come to think of it... I have no idea what 41 is suppose to feel like but if it feels like 30 then that's how it feels lol! I have been married to this gorgeous guy...


Andrew, for 20 years next September {2013} and it hasn't all been easy and we have had our ups and downs but we have done it together. Not only do I love him with all my heart but I have respect for him and together we have made these two ratbags...Um, I mean, beautiful boys...


Brandon James {BJ} who is 14, very funny sometimes very bossy but gorgeous... As well as autistic and then there is....


Cameron Scott... Cam to most people, except when he is in trouble {I tend to use full names when they are in trouble ;0)} is 13 and is smart and funny, witty and fun to be around...

We live in a little town in South Australia on the fringe of The Adelaide Hills called Strathalbyn {yes that is a mouth full, you should try to type it really fast!}. It is a pretty town and we have been here nearly seven years. I work in one of the 3 bakery's in town called Pestka's. It's not full time but just enough to keep me in card making supplies and other stuff!

About Me:
I love card making, photography and I was going to say excising but I don't love that... If I'm being honest, it's a necessary life choice of being healthy and liking myself so I do it... If I could have one wish in this world it would be that I could eat whatever I liked and never get fat!!

Spring and Autumn are my favourtite seasons.

I love taking photo's from my iphone because I am an Instagram junkie.

I am terrified of heights but think that I could handle a hot air balloon. 

I hate spiders.

I LOVE my coffee... Can I stress to you the word LOVE does not describe my feelings aquatically     enough about how I feel about my coffee.

Shoes, shoes and more shoes... A girls gotta have options!

My family...My mum passed away 7 years ago from complications from surgery due to Bowl Cancer. I miss her so much it hurts. My dad, although he can be very grumpy and gruff at times is sweet, kind and generous. My sister Cindy, whom I love unconditionally always.... And her husband Greg, and my nieces and nephew Brookie, Ella Bella and Ben... All have a very special place in my heart... 

My best friend Wendy, her wonderful husband James and my gorgeous {by proxy} niece and nephew Emily and Ryan... Apart from my family who are a very important part of my life and whom I will love always...

I love card making. I also love my Project Life, SMASH booking and scrapbooking... But card making is what I love best. 

I am actually a really shy person and I usually just sit back and watch people before I jump in. 

I love to blog. Even though I have come close to giving it all up a couple of times, I talk myself back into it... I can be ME on my blog and share with you the good and bad and crafty things that I do...

That's ME..
