Fiddling Around

Hi There,

I have spent a bit of time this afternoon looking at various blogs and sites around the place, and tidying up my own... there is a little more content now, and you will notice I have moved the slides of cards, etc, to the top of the page, and added more in the way of scrapping layouts and more cards, as well as off the page projects.

It is slowly coming together! I am hoping to work out how to add my own sketches and more links to places that have interesting and wonderful things to look at. It all takes time, doesn't it? Something I haven't got any more of this afternoon... off to tennis now with the family.

Thanks for looking! Warmest wishes,

First Online Class

Hi there!
I am so excited... I have just completed my first online scrap class!!! Big thanks must go to the lovely and very talented Skye Johnson over at The Challenge Chics. I am learning so much with all my 'surfing' around the various scrapping sites, and loving every minute of it!
Thanks for looking. Warmest wishes,

What a Day!

Hi there,

I've had a doozy today... my children were covered from head to toe in paint after playgroup this morning and consequently, so was I! My DD managed to get blue vegetable dye paint all around her right eye (thankfully not in her eye), and ended up looking like William Wallace from 'Braveheart'. I got a lovely photo that I am going to use in a scrap online tutorial over at the Challenge Chics site, with the lovely Skye Johnson, on Thursday night.

Then, this afternoon, I was trying to upload the newest slide show of my 2009 Christmas stock, and my computer froze when I was nearly finished, and I lost the lot! Aargh! But I got there in the end, and now you can find it at the top of the page - finally!!

Hope you've all had a terrific Tuesday. We've had a gorgeous sunny day today, which makes it impossible to be cranky for long, even with silly computers!

Thanks for looking. Warmest wishes,

Cards, cards, cards

Hello there,

Right, I have finally uploaded pics of a selection of my cards... of course there are many more to photograph and post, but it has taken me the better part of this afternoon to get this lot done. You can view them in the little slideshow at the bottom of the page if you are interested.

I will be adding another slideshow soon of all my scrap LO's... watch this space...

Thanks for looking. Warmest wishes,

So Much To See

Hello there,

Since making this blog, I have been doing some serious surfing of the net, looking at various blogs and pages and whatnot to do with scrapping, and have come across some amazing tips to try for traditional scrapping as well as OTP scrapping.

One that I am particularly impressed with at the moment is: http://mycreativescrapbook.invisionzone.com

There is a section dedicated to tips and techniques... I absolutely love the ribbon frog (I'll be trying this next time I do a LO with photos of my DS), and one for 3D flowers which would look amazing on OTP projects. Can't wait to try these out!

I'm off to have more of a look around... I could spend forever doing this LOL.

Thanks for looking. Warmest wishes,

Golly Gee I Really Don't Get Technology!!

Hi there!

Well, firstly, let me offer a big, huge welcome to my first blog, and to my blog site!

It has taken me ages - a lot of frustration and perserverance, but I think I may have finally got it together... hopefully it is working! I guess if you are reading this, it must be LOL.

As you can see, there's not a lot of content at this stage, but bear with me, and I will get more on here asap.

Thanks for looking. Warmest wishes,
