Finished a few more cards this weekend and a scrap page of my garden. my garden is only slightly bigger than a postage stamp...but at least it doesn't take too long to mow it !!!




oh and by the way, I'm a bit fed up this week as the local kids have knocked a hole in the back of my garage!!! ... best go and cheer myself up with a spot of crafting...LOL

Answer to questions...

a couple of you have asked if the word books were bought / or where i got them from...

I designed and made them myself using the cricut design studio software and the cricut expressions to cut them out

The "Harry" book is bound using a crop-a-dile to punch the holes and bind it all wire, and the "Abbi" book is bound with the bind it all...hope this helps :O)

This weekends Scrapping..

well had a bit of a creative spurt with the scrapping yesterday, i love the 'Steam' page.. reminds me of family holidays, Dad always had to go to a steam / transport museum !!!

The High Flyer was from Scrap booking Club on Wednesday and as you can see i made the steam page with the left overs...... ooh very frugal!!!! LOL

Another one made with the left overs from the 'Double Trouble page last month' ....... steady on all this using up stuff, normally it sits in a pile till it drives me mad then i bin it!!!!! does this count as recycling...am I going green!!??!!.... best have a lay down !!! LOL


6 X 6 Swaps done and sent...

Finally finished the 6x6 pages and sent them on there way last week the theme this month was Holidays.....

This one is of me when i was 16 and had just finished school, my friend and I what camping for the week in near Dymchurch......good times!!!!
You may recognise this pic from a previous posting as this was the cottage that hubby and i stayed at earlier this year for out wedding anniversary.
