Okay, so this is my first post in absolute ages, well it feels like ages and boy have I missed it!
We are still on holiday in New Zealand but only for one more week. My Christmas camera has been getting a real work out but I am still such an amateur!
I got a bit crafty at the beach yesterday while the others were clambering over rocks and exploring the sea-life in the rock pools. I have had a love of sea-shells since I was little and could spend hours digging around looking for that 1 perfect specimen. Unfortunately airport customs would not take to kindly to bagloads of shells being transported across the Tasman so I had to make the most of them while I was here. Yesterday I collected enough to make these 3 slogans which I am hoping will be my inspiration this year...I intend to do more of each...
REST RELAX LAUGH

Oh, the clarity of your photos!! Happy New Year Ange and enjoy the rest of your holidays.
i love it!!! i think you should print these and frame them in white chippy paint frames and hang each one with a big silk ribbon...or velvet...or gingham or something! blessings!
Hi other Ange - nice to see you back! Looks like you had a great time with the new camera! You get to take your shells back with you anyway - as photos ;-) Happy New year! Hope to be home myself sometime this year !!
Hi there Ange,
Sorry for leaving another comment but I just realised that I don't have your email address. Just wanted to let you know I have a wee give away going since a couple of day's ago. Scroll down to I think Dec 31st or Jan 1st and you will find it!
Lovely photos. Adore looking for seashore treasures! Have a wonderful time ~ Angela

Hi Ange, I love the photos!! They would look wonderful framed in your home and would serve as a fun reminder of your trip and your new mantra. Happy New Year. Look forward to blogging with you in 2010, cheers Katherine
Couldn't have said it better myself!
Hi Ange
Thanks for stopping in and following my blog. I love this post and what you have done with the shells. It reminded me of New Zealand. I can sympathize with trying to take the shells..it is such a wonderful past time. I think you should frame each of these and hang them together. They are a lot of fun!

Lovely post Ange - in fact just perfect I reckon! Sounds like you are taking your own advice in Kiwiland & getting plenty of RRL!
