Follow The Diva
I know - it's been about 2 months!! But we went away for a bit and did several day trips (thanks to the Clubcard vouchers!) and I got out of th habit of scrapping and blogging.
We've also booked our Disney wedding for next summer, so have been very busy researching and booking and paying deposits etc.
This is a LO I did at the end of July for Scrapbook Sisters using Making Memories Noteworthy 2 range. I have a couple of other LOs still to post, and a crop next week, so I should become a bit better again in the near future.
Thanks for bearing with me :-)
Fairy Footie
I love these pictures of Amelia - she's wearing the dress we bought her for the wedding, when she was tiny and didn't show signs of growing very much, lol! It was only £8 from Woolworths, so we always said she could have i for dressing up if she had a growth spurt. Although she's still tiny compared with other kids of her age, she now fits the dress perfectly so we let her wear it. She LOVED the magic wand, and kept telling everyone it was her fairy dress with a magic wand, bless!
Anyway, the LO uses the original Making Memories Noteworthy range, Prima flowers, a Creative Imaginations journalling block, Dovecraft stamp, and random rik rak and brads.
Today I will probably need to pop to my mum's as her new PC was delivered by Dell and I need to put her photos etc from the laptop onto my external hard drive :-)
Pure Happiness
This is a LO I did at the Scrapbook Sisters class on Thursday: it's mum's regular class but she had a work do, so I went instead! It was inspired by one of the samples that used circles, which I then adapted into my own design. It uses Basic Grey Boxer papers, and I added Prima flowers, a 7 Gypsies stamp, and American Crafts Thickers letters.
Our shopping yesterday was a let down as we got to Rochester and found the fabric shop had closed. It must have been fairly recent as lots of the other shop owners thought it was still open! Anyway, we had a cold drink sat outside, which was nice, then went back to mum and dad's, where the kids were able to play in their nappies to keep cool!
I have no firm plans for today, although I need to go to the bank, and the bottle bank. Should really start some work as Carl is off for the two weeks after this, and it will be really dull for him if I have to keep doing work!
Online Dinner Party!
This LO is from the 'Main Course' class on Carolinez Craftz Forumz last night, as we had an online dinner party :-D The class was designed by Jayne, from the DT, and it was great fun!
We've had a nice weekend, very relaxing for me yesterday while Carl went to golf, and on Saturday we spent the afternoon/evening at Bluewater. We did some shopping in the sales (and spent very little!), then had a meal at Tottsies, with BOGOF main meals thanks to American Express, then finished up watching The Dark Knight at the cinema. The film is amazing, and we would recommend it to any adults...not sure how it got a 12A rating as I found it quite scary in parts...it's definitely not a film for kids ;-)
Hugs
I had a great time at the class last night - it was very hot so only got one LO done but plan to do more with the kit during today; we used Basic Grey Boxer papers.
This is a LO I did a while ago (actually at the last shop crop!) and it is of Carl and Millie at Capstone Park.

And finally we have arrived at the back page!
I've spent the last two days doing some LOs for the Scrapbook Sisters Design Team but this afternoon I will get something done for me - then I will have more to post on my blog!
I also just got a huge order from Photobox so I will have plenty of subjects to choose from over the next few weeks :D-
As always, if you want to see the detail of this, or any of the other pages, please click the photo to take you to my Flickr gallery.

Good morning, it is finally the holidays :-D
Here's hoping that I will have plenty of opportunities to be crafty and creative over the next six weeks, and will have lots more to put on my blog :D
