"Wish you were here…." layout and a surprise!
I’m back – this is what I’ve been up to
Arrived home yesterday after 9 nights at our holiday cottage. We had some gorgeous weather - more like summer than spring, and not a drop of rain. We met up with friends, had lots of picnics, walks, icecreams, had friends to sleepover, pony lessons for the kids, visited a farm, and of course time on the beach. All very relaxing (honest!) and hardly any scrapping done. I took a lot of photos though - so here are a few of local scenery - all less than 10 miles from our cottage. This should give ...

Weekend is over – and it was a good one
Good evening. It's Sunday evening and I am watching the end of Grey's Anatomy while I post this. We have had beautiful spring weather all weekend. Kids got to play outside lots. I got to the gym twice (!). My eldest daughter was at a 'country and western' birthday party on Saturday - went with sparkley cowboy hat and a hobby horse - I took photos to scrap of course. Palm Sunday today, and we had a great all-age service this morning. We went out for lunch with friends, who came back to ... Read the Post
Its Friday!
I read a great post on Misty Cato's blog (see link on right) about the balance between creating artistic layouts that look beautiful and creating meaningful layouts that will be a record for prosperity. As I am just setting out on my adventure into digi-scrapping I am probably not doing either very well yet. Certainly I loved the great layout Misty had created of her son's favourite things - and I plan to 'scraplift' the idea for my kids. Maybe a project I could do with them over the Easter ...

Where in the world are you? (and another layout too!)
As you can see - I have a new guest book on my blog - and it lets you show where in the world you live. I know I have visitors from all over, and I would love it if you - yes YOU - would take a moment to say 'hi'.Todays layout is the second time I have scrapped this photo of my middle child, Jane. Jane lost her 4th baby tooth yesterday, the second upper front one, so she will be a bit 'gappy' for a while ! When I was looking for a photo to scrap last night, this smile just junped out at me. ... Read the Post
