I never appreciated how lovely these papers are until I used them for a class this week! The colourway is different to anything I have used recently, but they girls loved them. I did 2 layouts, the second one a very simple and quick layout as the first has quite a bit of cutting and dare I mention the "S" word...sewing!!

Cosmo Cricket ...Family

This is a birthday present I made for my best friend Kerry who now lives in Australia...it was her birthday on Monday but I did not want to post this before I knew she had received it.






I made it from a kit by Cosmo Cricket Dutch girl...I love this range has to be one of my favourites. I made it with photos of her and hubby kevin plus photos of their wonderful daughters Lauren and Holly. They have been caught up in all the fires in melbourne but thank god they are safe and their house is ok...although she did email me last night and they have had an earthquake!! The set comprises 5 chipboard rectangles which you cover with cardstock and lace together with ribbons and then add diecuts. Its not the easiest thing to photograph so I have taken several shots.

Water Boy


This is the other page I did using almost the same layout as my last post. I used BG Periphery that I have had for years and never used. The border again was off of a technique tuesday frame, the flourishes are a ek success punch and I used a button from my stash. Everything else is from the BG collection.

Heidi Grace




Finally managed to get some scrapbooking done last night....I have quite alot of cardmaking work going on at the moment and its taking all my time. Hopefully after next week I will back to working my way through my unfinished stuff!!


These layouts are from a Scrapagogo kit, the first layout is one the design team did in the book that comes with the kit, the Retreat is one of my own. No date on this one as I cant for the life of me remember when it was...only that it was at Scrapaholics retreat in Luton. Kerry when you see this put your thinking hat on...was it the year you left or the year before..lol!!


Everything I have used was in the kit. At the weekend I will post the layouts I have done for a class on Saturday.
