Just got back from a fantastic show, Mum took Hollie and me to see Fame the musical at Hull New Theatre, it truly was fantastic, the whole cast were amazing dancers and the lead male dancer was fit as in more ways than one, it amazes me how they dance like that twice a day for weeks on end, and still put the passion into it. Needless to say we were all up dancing at the end of the show. We then hot footed it to Pizza Hut for tea, and I can highly recommed the pasta dishes we all really enjoyed them. Its been a long night and were all shattered, but I,ve just realised I,ve still not made dh a valentines card so will have to get to work fast as its officially valentines day in about two hours. Will post a pic on when and if I managed to make one.

ITS SNOWING

I have just taken this on our way home from school, it is truly snowing 'heavens high' it started earlier this afternoon, and its coming thick and fast, the best bit for the kids is its laying not too good for me as I have to drive through it.

We had a snowball fight on the front of our house, I,m sure the neighbours must think I,m mad, but I dont care. Hollie is a good aim now and managed to get lots down the back of my coat, it was freezing, and one right on my freezing ear, I did get her back but was enjoying throwing stuff at her way too much and reminded myself she is only 9.

Anyway, hope your all having fun in the snow if you have any, and remember your never too old to make a snowman or throw a few snowballs, go on it feels good.

First xmas lay out

This is my first l/o in ages, and as most of my scrapping stuff is packed and ready to move, I,ve tried my hand at digital had photoshop elements for ages but never really got to grips with it, so have been having a play around with it, this l/o is very basic but its giving me some much needed practice, I,m not the most computer literate of people so having to learn a whole new language is quite hard work. Anyway, this photo is our of one of our family traditions we have a carpet picnic on christmas eve, all of us sit in the front room on the carpet and start to get very excited about a certain someone paying us a visit.

Heres another lay-out I made for a challenge over on UKScrappers, We had to use a title from any Bee Gees song, 3 of something, the colour blue, and I cant remember the rest of the rules, but another lovely l/o. I got full points for my team the Dithering Divas. I used the lovely wedding papers 'la boutique' from K & Co they really are beautiful and it took at lot for me to cut them up but I do buy them to use and not just look at..

Cant believe its been this long since I posted on here, various reasons mainly time or lack of it.

Not scrapped as much as I have surfed seem to spend most of my time clicking around UKScrappers, theres so much on there and have made some great friends, crafting girls are so friendly.

The picture above is of this weeks challenge on UKS we were given a sketch to follow and some rules, a outdoor picture, autumnal colours and to use ten of something. I,m really pleased with my l/o, and I got to use my first GoGo create kit which was crammed full of beautiful strokable stash. Got lots more ideas for this kit so will share with you when got them finished.

Hi, been a while again but busy, busy, busy here, had loads going on and not stopped for breath.
I,ve signed up for a on-line scrapbooking class from Shimelle called My Freedom, its fantastic a very different approach to how I normally scrap, which is a good thing as my style is a very basic, non arty approach and this will def make me stretch myself, our first prompt and subject is all about Time hence the picture of the clock above, its really made me think about how I spend my time , be it free time or work time, and the time I have no choices in. All in all a great class I highly recommend it. Will be posting my first l/o,s when I finally manage to do one.

Hi, made my first page for my book of me, finally, been meaning to start this project for ages but didn,t know where to start, going to do the pages then put them in order as have so many photos to go through yet that would never get any scrapping done.
This little beaut of a picture is my brother and I think I,m about 6 or 7 not to sure as mum never labelled any pics. Anyway hope this is the first of many.

I have just signed up for the Magnolia Tilda stamp club, yipee, cant wait for them to arrive, but have no idea when they will as no dates were given and the site is mainly in Swedish (I think it was Swedish) so could be anytime.
