Look what I got!! I feel extremely honoured to receive this blog award from Juliette Chapman. Thank you so much - it made my day. Check out Juliette's blog HERE as she has many inspiring projects and is one very talented lady. I was fortunate enough to meet Juliette and attend one of her classes last year, while I stayed on in Sydney, after Convention. If you ever get the opportunity, I thoroughly recommend that you attend a class of Juliette's - they are loads of fun and very inspirational.
Anyway, back to the award...The premise behind it, is to draw attention to new blogs, or blogs with fewer than 300 followers. So, now it is my turn to pass on this award to three other people whose blogs inspire me. This is so difficult, as there are tons of very creative people out there! Here are the three ladies that I've chosen (after deliberating for a very long time and finally making a final decision):
Karen Rogers - my amazing upline who I regularly get inspiration from.
Denise Ibbett - a fellow demonstrator from the Creative Inkers Team in Papakura, Auckland who does awesome work.
Bev Watt - a wonderfully creative demonstrator from across the ditch in the Gold Coast, Australia.
I received this a bit earlier in the week, but have been flat out with one thing or another. Thanks so much Helen, Paula and Debbie for awarding me with this - I'm totally blown away and feel very honoured to be the recipient of this award!!
Here are the rules...
I must pass the award on to another 10 Beautiful Blogs AND tell you 10 things about myself. Many people already have received this and it was a very difficult decision. So without further ado and in no particular order, here are the 10 Beautiful Blogs of 10 beautiful people!

This is the hard part, the 10 things about me...

2. I was a Flight Steward (in the RNZAF) and the Queen was my most famous passenger.
3. I'm scared of heights.
4. I love Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice but hardly ever watch much TV nowadays because I'm too busy blog surfing. I have recorded them and will watch them one day..
5. I had fake acrylic nails for 3 years and miss them dearly. I loved the way the polish stayed on forever and always looked fresh. Now I don't have the time (see above) or the money because of my stamping addiction...lol.
6. I have two beautiful daughters - Nicole (16) and Bridgette (14).
7. In the year BC (before children), I ran a marathon.
8. I was an army brat and born in Christchurch.
