My Scrapping

Hi everyone, as you know I've been busy scrapping. I've done a couple of LO's of my niece and eldest nephew and here are some others I've done.

This one is for the Elsie Flannigan Challenge #1 on UKS. Challenge was to cut up a phrase.

Paper is Center City - Astor Place from Charmed Cards and Crafts

Phrase is Rusty Pickle Mayflower Cardstock Coupons also from Charmed Cards and Crafts

I've also used buttons and fibres to embellish the LO.

This LO is for the Elsie Flannigan Challenge #2 on UKS. Challenge was to take your favourite photo and change it to B & W for the LO.

I used my favourite photo of my mum on our girls holiday in Somerset last year. It was nice seeing her take a quiet moment beside the stream in Cheddar as she was always so busy at work and home.

The papers and sayings that I mounted onto chipboard (a picture is worth a thousand words / memories last forever / serene) are from K & Co's Hannah Scrap Pad To Go from Charmed Cards and Crafts as is the Prima flower.

I used the Ellison Tootsie Die Cut Alphabet for the large lettering and the phrase on vellum is "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart - Helen Keller"

Is There A Table Under There?

Has someone been crafting? No not just someone, Tee and I!! Tee is just a wonderful person and such a great friend. I am so blessed to have her in my life. I had the most fantastic time with her and her family. They all make me feel so welcome. Her DH even came back from the shop with some of the lacto-free milk I have at home (I really fancied a latte earlier and came up in a rash!). What an absolute darling he is.

Tee and I coffeed, browsed her favourite IRL craft shop, talked, laughed, cried (with laughter), crafted, drank wine, slept and crafted some more. What else did you expect to read? LOL

I'm so looking forward to having Tee come and stay with me sometime. Will be great to return some of the fantstic hospitality she showers me with.

Love to all who have taken the time to read my ramblings xxx

I'm Going Quiet - for once!!

Hi everyone, I'll be going quiet for a couple of days as I'm off to see my great friend Tee. We plan to chat, laugh, shop and craft. We've tried to tell her DH know he'll survive me being there, but I'm not sure he's convinced LOL. He could be right as I know how we were before when he was working away. Is he ready for me? Maybe not, but I'm going anyway! I just hope the winds die down a little for my journey. If not, I'll be driving slower, but getting there safely I hope.

I'll report back when I'm home Thursday, I'll hopefully have piccies of my crafting and who knows what else to show you?

Take care and mind the wind xxx
