Welcome back

well I will welcome myself back....LOL..

It has been awhile, but i know lots of my friends have not updated their blogs for a whole lot longer, so i don't feel as bad!

So news is, pretty soon I will no longer be a Stampin Up consultant..I have failed in keeping up with the minimums. I am happy though, because I still love and will use their products.

I am however a Chefs toolbox consultant. I saw the product (kitchenware - knives, cookware and silicone bakeware) recently and new I HAD to have it in my home. So the cheapest and quickest way to do this was to sell it. Give me a yell if you would like any details, or you can check out the products and order directly at -

www.chefstoolbox.com/my/karenskitchen/

You can find product specials, hints and recipes on facebook too, just search Chefs Toolbox Karen Yates

I haven't really scrapped since the retreat. Just haven't had the time or energy. But i have made a few cards. So here are a couple -









I have used my three favourite Stampin' Up! products of the moment..The Top Note die, the Robot Stamp Set and The Bird Punch.
I am excited because I am going to a spur of the moment scrapbooking retreat at the end of July with 1 of my best buddies and my sister. It will be awesome.
Family are all doing well, hubby hurt his back recently, after a wall fell on him at work, so he is slowly recovering, and keen to get right back into training, having registered for the Shepparton Half Ironman and the New Zealand Ironman in March. Emmy is her usual cheeky self, although has had a shocker of a cough for about a month. Harry is looking forward to school holidays. I had a gastroscope yesterday, because i have fairly persistent reflux. Turns out I have a hiatus hernia, which means control with diet and medications. (Losing weight would help too, which is really on my to do list, just need to find motivation and devotion)!!
OK, hopefully I can stay on top of this and share some family and creative info for you more often.
