Party Pixies

Sophs had her Birthday party last night and all the girls had a great time. It was in a salon between Bangor and Newtownards esp for kids. We had 4 cars go over with 12 girls, although I think Gary got the noisiest ones! All the girls got their hair done, nails done and make up. They decorated buns, played games and had a karoke. The Party pixie girls provided all the food and drinks for the party, all we had to provide was the cake. I would recommend a Party Pixie Party for any girlie girls!

Sophs birthday isn't until 10th december but this was the only Friday night it suited because of the new AQE tests being on a Saturday morning. Its hard to believe she's nearly 11 and going to High School next year.

Halloween Layout

I know it's 2 weeks since Halloween but I got round to doing this layout this evening. Soph's went to 3 Halloween parties so this is her ready for her first one!

Kings Hall

Hi all,
Mum Sandra and me went to the kings hall on Thursday (I got the day off) and we had a ball. Although I think I spent the most!!! I got some stamps from Dimension fourth and from Little Claires, two of the punches from Crafty Devils, a bigz sizzix die to make advent calendars and some of the long cutting plates, 2 cricut cartridges even though I haven't got my pink cricut yet (DH ordered it for me for Christmas), an xcut glass mat and two more scrapbook albums and page protectors again from Crafty Devils (I really needed more scrapbook albums!!) I even came home with some money but not much! I meant to take a photo of all my new stash but I put it away before I remembered. Oh I got a bottle of Prima flowers and a set of 3 sizzlets of an angel, a penguin and a reindeer.

Sophs did her first AQE test this morning instead of the 11+. She was nervous but she thinks it went ok, 1 down and 2 to go, at least they will be over for her birthday. We're glad the first ones over. We wandered about Junction 1 while she was in the grammar school and I went into Paper Mill and some papers and 2 templates to make boxes, I think I will use the templates in my next Stampin Up workshop.

I'm going now to make an advent calendar with Sophs.
Bye for now Sam x

Scrapbooking Course

Hi all, I'm doing a scrapbooking course in Cookstown and we had a challenge to complete for last night. Here it is:

We had great fun last night and Mum won the challenge 'Well Done'. I'm sure she will upload her page to her blog, see the link in my followers (she is Kraftykate). We have another challenge for next month and I sat up last night after I came home to finish it. I just have to add a chipboard '2' to it and I will upload it too. Have a great weekend x
