Wedding Album

Last February I made a Wedding Album for Ian's cousin - and it's just occured to me that I never got round to sharing it with you all!

So, here it is .... better later than never, as they say!

Pictures are a bit blue - I really do need to get the hang of the White Balance lol.

Weekly Verb Album - Weeks 12 and 13

OK - so they are now a bit out of order as I still need to get the parcels for weeks 7-11, but here are weeks 12 (Learn) and 13 (Comfort).

I did consider using FOOD as the subject of my comfort page, but as I'm trying to lose weight and NOT use food for comfort, I decided to go with HOME instead.




I printed out the front cover today onto white Bazzill Cardstock, and the texture on the card gave the page a totally different look which I loved - so I've decided to print the whole album on white Bazzill (note to self - buy more cardstock LOL).

Been playing again :)

I've been having a play with my new PSE8 (yep ... another night when I can't sleep, although this time it's through PAIN! My whole body aches after only 3 evenings as dresser for the Gang Show, and there's still 3 performances to go!).

Bearing in mind that I've jumped from version 2 straight up to 8 (note to self - don't leave it so long to upgrade next time LOL), I managed to work most things out. However, I'm buggered if I can find my Magic Eraser tool! Think I'll hunt for that one when I'm a bit more awake :)

Here's the fruit of my labour - I absolutely adore this photo of Joe, as it really shows off his personality.

Been Pooter-less Again!!!

Yes, my faithful old PC died last week :( She's been a loyal and faithful friend for 7 years, but this time, she'd had enough!

So - I'm sitting here blogging on my new (well, new to me) PC with a NINETEEN inch screen!!! I feel like I'm at the control panel for NASA LOL.

And it's arrived just in the nick of time, as we're running a Cyber Crop over at FaithScrappers UK this weekend. It starts a 7pm on Friday, with classes and challenges being posted all through Friday evening and Saturday. Sunday will be class-less, but we will have a Bible Study during the day.

Our CCs are pretty relaxed - there's no pressure to join in with the classes or challenges, you just pick the ones you fancy having a go at. And if you want to do them all ...... FAB! It's a chance to learn some new techniques, create some meaningful projects, chat with other crafters and have fun. The theme for this Cyber Crop is The Power Of Prayer!

Come on over and join us - if you're not already a members you'll need to join. Just register for membership (let me know you've done it babsm316@yahoo.co.uk and I'll approve the membership asap) and then let the herma fly!!!

Random Acts of Creativity!

Thought I'd upload some of my older layouts .... just to prove I really can do paper scrapping as well as digi LOL

Blogging For Scrapbookers : Day 1

Yayyyyyy - I've had my first prompt :)

So, we were tasked to put down our intentions for our blogs. Well, here goes:-

• blog on a regular basis - ok, this is unlikely to be daily (apart from the first 3 weeks), but I intend to at least post weekly.


• take more photographs and share them via my scrapbooks and my blog


• take some ME TIME at least once a week to scrap or make cards - this has been really difficult as the house is a tip, and I haven't been able to get to the table for months! Now I'm learning how to FLY (http://www.flylady.net/) and get my life organised, I'll soon be able to use the dining table for scrapping, instead of a little TV table :)

So, not bad for a first day :)

And just in case you don't believe me about the table ......
