My Sister's Wedding

It was such a hot day!!! we all look a little sunburned don't we. This is a very rare picture of my family all together, it really doesnt happen often enough. The paper and embellishments are from an Occasions Scrapbook kit.
I'm busy making the last few pages for my album so I'll be back later on :O)

Special Days

The top picture shows us on a visit to an old family friend who lives far away. The bottom picture is a visit to the seaside from Scout Summer camp, Alice was only 5 months old but it wasnt her first experience of camping ( her first was when she was only 9 weeks!! I must have been mad). The papers are from Colorbok and the lettering is from a Lisa Bearnson kit from QVC.

Alice's first birthday! She was just beginning to walk and was more interested in touching the candle flame than blowing it out hence I have a good hold on her hands ! Papers are from a QVC kit:O)

Family Holidays

Here's my latest page showing our family on holiday in Devon and Cornwall. I have used the same papers as on the previous page but in reverse. A strip of coordinating ribbon across the top with some chipboard medallions attached with brads completes the page. I look forward to your comments.

Kenya 1977

This double page spread shows our family holiday to Kenya. We went to stay with my uncle and aunt who had a hotel at Mombasa. We stayed 3 weeks and as I was 9 years old you can imagine the impact the trip had on me. Lots of wonderful memories.

Little Bridesmaid"

Here I am as a bridesmaid for my godmother. I remember I kept my posy by my bed for ages and ages. I have doublemounted the photgraph to make a statement and added some paper flowers which are attahced with large brads. This page is as yet untitled as I can't think of anything I like. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Bognor & Beyond

Another page for the book! All photos taken on family holidays on the south coast. In the large picture it is very obvious that I didn't want to be up on that stage, I remember the occasion very well! All ingredients as before are from Brenda Pinnick.

Summer Fun

I think these are my favourite pages so far. A double page spread entitled Summer Fun and My
New Bike. Again all papers are from Brenda Pinnick.

30th January 2008

Goodness!! How long is it since I last posted something here? Where has the time gone?

Today I completed a tag book that I had started at a workshop when I visited the craft show at Farnborough a couple of weeks ago. All the papers and ribbons are from Blonde moments, gorgeous colours and lots of lovely papers in their range. I have to confess to making a rather large purchase at their stand later.
