ok...this first one is of my Mum and Alan walking outside of Windsor Castle...my mother is shrinking and Alan looked sooooooo much taller then his 6'2" next to her!
How could I resist scrapping this photo?? This is of my youngest when he was only 2 1/2 months old smiling at his brother whose head you can barely see in the photo!
This was for a challange on UKS of to use a cd cover to scraplift..I used Gorillaz, we also had to use material and it had to be a holiday theme. What better one then my favourite holiday to Spain??
This is a photo of my Mother at I believe around 17..it was her graduation from high school photo. I have always loved this photo.

This lo was done as a challange I set over on the charmed forum my challange was to do a lo using foam on it, ribbon and visible journaling...and yep I did all of the above!
I have been lucky enough to have my friend Sarah come to spend a night with me this past week. She was nice enough to pick me up from work and after popping back out for some nibbles and wine we went back to my house and had dinner then began our evening of crafting, chatting and laughing, we crafted well into the night and then again Friday afternoon. It was so nice having someone to craft with! Well please leave comments if you feel so inclined..I would love it if you did. :) Love and light to all who cast their eyes here. xx

Sorry its been so long since I posted...alot has been happening over the past couple months and I am finally feeling like I can breathe a bit now at long last and I am crafting again..yayyyyy. Here are a couple things I have for a challange Sarah C has posted on Charmed forum. To make 2 items.....and we were allowed to us photo's of people or pets, no pink, no bling and no glitter. The first challange was a LO following these guidelines, which as you see I have done, and the second is making a wall hanging, so I have done this also and there were extra points if we used acrylic paints so I have stamped with white acrylic paints..my toys photos are of my xryon machine, my Big Shot die cut machine and my CropodileII Big Bite. Thank you for having a look and please feel free to leave a comment I love them!

What have I been doing??


I have had a busy couple weeks and ended up with a major headache by this past friday..crash and burn so to speak...whhhhhhhhoa slow down me! <<<>

Friday even found me making a photo frame for Lizzies challange on charmed and I have uploaded it into the gallery there. I am not 100% pleased with it but its a first try at making one and doing spirelli so I am pleased with myself for doing it. Also friday eve I did a LO for the weekly challange on UKS ..which is the photo above all this typed data. lol The requirements for the challange were ...use a sketch (which was shown), use recycled scraps, use green, and the lo must be nature inspired.


OK...on with my yesterday...my dh and I redid the whole craft room, and I had a major clear out...my Mum is coming to stay the month of April with me from the states so I needed to make a place for her to sleep and relax and call her own area...so she is sharing my craftroom, we bought her a single bed, and have dressed it up for her so she should be comfy cosy in it! So today...Sunday the 9th I shall relax and yes...I plan on crafting!

Royal Albert Dock Promenade


My latest LO, Elsie flannigan challange on UKS, to take an artistic photograph, here is my photo, I love this photo. The journaling reads..."I snapped this walking in London across from City Airport. I found all the contrasting elements, metal, brick, steel, & glass along with the shadows just made for such an eyecatching scene. To look at the world around us in a bit of a different way opens up a whole beautiful world of art."
