Welcome to the bloggy home of Claire Chadwick. I'm the face & designer behind Scissors Paper Rock Designs, a wife to Chris, Mummy to the Divine Miss Ella & our newest addition; Baby Ryder. I'm a Primary School Teacher by trade, but recently shut my classroom door to pursue other BIG dreams of Freelance Writing. I am also excited to announce that my first Children's Picture Book {So Many Sounds} will hit stores in June 2013. This blog is my little online space where I weave together my reflections and stories of Motherhood. I illustrate with photos.... and drink plenty of coffee to keep me going. I'm on a mission to turn the mundane moments of motherhood into MAGICAL ones. 

Join me in seeping as much goodness out of life, {whilst I continue to drink way too much coffee & take way too many photos} and together we can make the most of our WILD & PRECIOUS LIVES!

I'd love to hear from you....comment on my posts or send me an email. Buckle up, Enjoy the ride!

Live! Laugh! Love!

Let's Do 52 ~ Delicate ~ Week 5.

WEEK FIVE:

This week's theme for the "Let's Do 52" Photo Project was.....DELICATE!

I think I may have used this photo on my blog before......but as I scrolled through my iphoto library tonight......it jumped out at me! This moment.....this photo.....was so fun, so precious, so girly....and so delicate!

Sunday Splash of Colour.....{YELLOW}

Good morning everyone :) How are you all?

It's a glorious day here.....the sun is shining and not a cloud in the sky...AND....our little Miss Ella slept in til 8am today!!!!! For those of you who know me....you know that Ella DOES NOT usually sleep in past 6/6:30am most days!! And she only woke twice last night.....so today has been PERFECT so far ;o)

On that note, I thought I'd do a Sunday Splash of YELLOW to go with my lovely start to the day! Last week I did RED, and a couple of months ago, I did PINK!!

So...here's some YELLOW to brighten your Sunday:

Tickled Pink....

How has everyone's Friday been? What did your Friday entail?

I have a little list of things I would 'like to / will' post about eventually ;o) Everytime I get a random thought that I would like to blog about...I jot it down in my diary! This evening I planned to post about one of those topics/ideas on my list....but got sidetracked looking at lovely images on the net & on my favourite blogs :)

It's Friday evening....the most enjoyable night of the week in our house! And to make my evening even more relaxing I don't have to cook dinner tonight ~ my Mum looked after Ella today at our house & has already cooked us a delightful, delicious Spanish meal....yummo! Aren't I lucky?!

As I was browsing the world of blogs this evening, I came across Table Tonic's blog post titled "Pink is the Navy Blue of India". It caught my attention as I love love love the colour PINK! To me pink symbolises a lot...especially since Chris & I had a pink wedding! So, you can imagine my excitement when we discovered we were having a GIRL at our 20week scan.....our daughter of course now has a closet which is a sea of PINK & a gorgeous girly room with many hues of pink :)

Here's some pretty pictures to take you into the weekend of lovely pink things:
