Happy Christmas to everyone!

Had a very nice break in Scotland and even though the trains were awful - why cant we cope with bad weather?- It was a lovely time. I gave my cousin her album and it was well received.
I have done this weeks challenge for the uks and here it is. I wish everyone a fabulous christmas and a wonderful new year.

Halloween is Fun!

I have added a little Halloween Scrap blog at the bottom of the page just for fun :)

The Cyber Crop at UKScrappers

A whole week end of Scrapping and beautiful classes, i was so happy with the results i got too. I had really looked forward to Ifa's class and i was not disappointed it was lovely.
There was much cussing and tutting over the Days Til Christmas Class by Di O and though it was messy to do the result was lovely and i will be hanging it on the wall over xmas with pride.



So many of the classes were lovely but i also loved the bright and cheery Layout that i did for the lollipop guild class by Michelle Jackson-Mogford (MJM).

Hurray it is nearly time for a cyber crop!

Just completed my precrop challenge for the UKS cybercrop, the subject was Home so of course my layout shows the people that spell home to me. I had some fun making a little house to put on the LO. Also i found a nice BoBunny swirl and a sticker that says "Family is the center of life's meaning". With a title from Thickers, and a piece of old ribbon to finish it off, I finished up with a layout I am quite pleased with.

UKS weekly challenge

This weeks challenge had 8 or more different options and as I couldn't make my mind up I went to Scrapblogger and did it as a digital layout. It is easier to play around when you are not ripping up real paper and paint.

heritage pages for the album

Finally getting near the end of my son's album, I had put off doing the heritage pages until this week. But I think i was in the mood and four new pages are in his book. 8"x8" pages are very different than larger pages and they can get overworked very easily, i am not sure that these are right yet but for the moment they will do.

The photo's are not great because my camera seems to be playing up. I need to finish this album in the next couple of weeks because UKS is having its cyber-crop and i want to concentrate on that.

knot knitting

I used the weekly challenge on UKS to make a double 8"x8" layout for my son's album. The little devil loved to get at my knitting, and this time he totally distroyed it. It gave me some fab pictures though and a chance to use my new paterns and cut scalloped edges, and squares.
I have also been playing on Wordle (http://www.wordle.net/gallery) The best site for making quick wordy backgrounds i used them to make backings for halloween cards this year, unfortunately i didnt get photos before the cards went.
