Well I have done loads of Project Life pages since I last posted, I am not going to put them all on here, as some are quite personal.

I have also celebrated my birthday very quietly on 20 August, spending the day with Christine and Jamie, and the evening with Kev.  It was a lovely day.

So to my crafty stuff.

I think this is one of my favourite pages that I have completed recently. It is going in Jamies 1st year album.

Well I said that I was feeling crafty again.  I have just found out about Project Life and I think I prefer this form of scrapbooking more than the traditional form.  It doesn't mean that I won't doing any 12 x 12 layouts with embelishments any more, I may add the odd one into an album.  I can display more of my thousands of photos this way.

 

 

These are simple with no frilly bits (as Kev says), but I am quite please with my first attempt.

Wow, it is a long time since I came on here.  So much has happened in my life, but not a lot of crafty stuff.  Well watch this page, Yve is getting  crafty again so hopefully there will be a lot more activity in the very near future.

An old favourite

in our family is Peter Rabbit.  We read all the books to Christine when she was a little girl and it is the first set of books I  bought for Jamie when he was born.

So when I saw this challenge on Cupcake Inspirations I just had to use a Peter Rabbit image.

I have used First Edition Spring Drop papers.  The leaf pins are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the cardstock and ribbon are from my stash.

This image is called Boobie Love, and a great reminder of all those brave ladies who have fought breast cancer, some winning their battles and some not so lucky. I have friends on both sides of this horrific disease and remember them all in my prayers.

A New Baby Girl

My neighbours have just had a baby girl, and I have just popped in to see her.  Wow, I have never seen a baby with so much hair - it is really thick and black.  I suppose I am so used to blonde babies as we are all fair in our family.  What age to you have to be to stop feeling broody? 
Here is the card I made for her.

I have used Pink Petticoat image and papers.
