Gill's mini album

 

Here are just a couple of pages from Gill's mini album. I'm rather pleased with the finished book. I just need to get it into the post. 

One of my taks this week is to try and clean up my studio. I have far too much stash!!! Some of it hasn't been used in years and I feel it's time to make room for the new stash. I'm off to the Malvern show next weekend and hope to find some great new bits. Its also time to go through my bits folder. Like many of you I keep all those small scraps of paper just in case..... But now is the time to be brutal. I have hundreds of scrapbook papers which I avoid using trying to favour the scraps but it's making my papercrafting  very stale. So I'm going to clear out the old and start afresh with the new. Here's hoping.

Where does the time go? At least Spring is virtually up on us. I'm very much a Spring baby. Winter makes me feel very low and don't have much enthusiasm. Now I feel like a new born lamb lol. I did a thorough clean of my apartment yesterday and took my nets down to give them a good wash. I washed the windows and was able to leave them open until quite late in the afternoon. It was lovely. I have tem wide open again this morning. Keisha Belle is loving it too as she can come and go again as she pleases through the windows. My BF sent me a lovely photo of her youngest yesterday, he looks so grown up bless him. I miss them all terribly. But I have an excellent excuse to craft and send cards and gifts across to Ireland for her. I'm just making her a mini scrapbook of my babies as she is really missing them. And them her I might add, Spirit especially. I'll take some photo's of the finished album. I also need to think of something for my card swap on the Crafty Ideas forum. Something beginning with "E". Elelphants come to mind at the moment.

Hearts and Flowers

Another scrapbook page from my calender. The papers I used are from Brenda Pinnick as are some of the embellishments. The flowers are from Prima and the ribbon was some I had in my craft stash.

CRAFTY KITTY
Spirit seems to be the only one fo the 2 of us who is enjoying the snow. She is a Northern Inuit and is very suited to these conditions. She's a nightmare on the lead though at this time of year. I think she goes into sled mode. My arms weren't meant for it!!!!
But for some strange reason she doesn't like the rain though, go figure!!!!
The youngest member of our family turned 1 just before christmas. She's also turning out to be very crafty and seems to think I need help!!!

This is my baby using my friend as a pillow a couple of days ago. Just watching QVC's craft day. I love my crafting and will try my hand to anything. I will start to add the various projects that i have done at a later date.
