Home Sweet Home

Remember the sneak peek?? Well here is the full layout! I've used a sheet of black home themed peel-offs as my inspiration for this page, and I love them! Once they were stuck onto paper/card nobody realised they were actually peel-offs LOL!!

I'll be back soon with sneak peeks of a Xmas Workshop that I am teaching on Saturday. We have one space left still, so if you fancy a day out, let me know and I can forward you all the details!!

Creative Scrappers Sketch #78

I was asked by Kristine over at Creative Scrappers to be a Guest Designer for her. I jumped at the chance, and received a fabulous sketch to work with. I pulled out a MCS kit full of gorgeous Websters Pages papers and got to work!

Thank you to all at Creative Scrappers!!! Pop over there and check out the DT's layouts using the sketch too!

Thanks for stopping by xx

Christmas Already???

Well it is for me, and probably lots of other scrapbookers too, as I start to prepare classes for December. The North Swindon Craft Club isn't having a December crop, so we are bringing the festivities forward and this Friday will be our xmas crop.


And in true Christmas style, I am going to teach a class on how to make this really cute Christmas Lantern Mini Album. I found the original idea here and thought it would look great in christmas colours.




I have used the really bright and festive Scenic Route papers for my lantern and photos of the kids from 2006. Once the lantern is complete you can put any embellishment you like to decorate it! I love this to bits, and will be putting it out along with my christmas decorations each year!

Well thats all for now, thanks as always for dropping by xx

Photos Galore!

On Friday we took a trip out to Moreton-On the Marsh to the Cotswold Falconry Centre. I would recommend it to anyone who had a morning/afternoon spare with nothing to do. They have a fabulous selection of birds of prey, and do flying displays during the day too. I managed to take quite a few photos, here are a selection of them.


As for scrapbooking, I've been busy creating for the Novembers Album Kit for My Creative Scrapbook, the reveal is on the 5th, but here are a some sneak peeks.

Aswell as that I took a night out to scrap for myself, and dug out a photo from summer 2005, when we went for a picnic. Not a major event to scrap I know, but I love the photo of the kids as they were so much smaller!!!

Remember to pop back on the 5th when I can reveal my projects for My Creative Scrapbook!! Thanks for stopping by xx

Half Term so far....

Well its half term again, which not only means I have my own kids at home to amuse, but we'll be having 2 morning of craft club for the children again.

But first Thursday was spent at Millets Farm with Corinna and the boys. The kids all get on so well, and there is quite an age range from 5-11 years, and Hannah being the only girl too.


And all finished off with coffee (juice for the kids) and cake...YUM!

Next wednesday and thursday I am teaching at the shop for kids craft club. I'm going to show them how to make a pumpkin "lift the flap" layout ...


and a christmas tag book too.


Lastnight was the North Swindon Craft Clubs October Crop, and I taught the ladies how to use lots of photos on a single page layout. I picked photos from when Rich went to Goodwood earlier in the year.



Well thats all for now, I will be collecting my kit from the Delivery Office first thing Monday morning so I can get busy working with the November kit for My Creative Scrapbook. Thanks for stopping by as always xx
