A few More Layout's

Here are another few layouts I've been doing. Back to work next week so I'll not have as much time for scrapping but I'm pleased I'm actually up to May this year now! Not that I scrap chronlogically but I put the layouts in my scrapbooks in the right order.

This is just a pony that Sophie found in a field while we were out walking Holly, don't know who was more scared, Holly or the pony!

Going back to work!

After six months off I'm going back to work on 27th, doctor asked me a few times if I was really sure I was able to go back but I am. Going back for half days for 2 weeks and then back into normal after that. Looking forward to it, getting a bit bored in the house! Have started scrapping again so I will post some layouts soon. Well better go since Sophs started High School she has joined the Youth Club and goes twice a week and she's going tonight and needs a lift.

Back into the school routine

Sophs is back at school full time now, settled in and loving it. She got lost a couple of times on Friday but there was always one of the older ones to help which is nice. Shes getting used to having a timetable and all the different teachers and so far likes all of them, she still has a few to meet. I'm just glad she is enjoying school, long may it last.

I'm on the mend now and hope to get back to work at end of Sept or beg of Oct. Have to see Gp soon and see what she says.

You should have seen the spider we had in the living room this morning, I've never seen one so big, it was the size of a mouse. Gary was already at work and I wasn't touching it. Sophs could hardly eat her breakfast for watching it. Dad came over and by that time it was behind a frame and dad lifted the frame off the wall and it was on the frame and he got me to open the front door and he threw it out, even he said it was a big one! I'm just glad I can go back into my living room again! I really don't like spiders especially mouse sized ones!

Sophie's First Day at High School

I can't believe Sophs is old enough to go to High School. She looked so grown up this morning in her new uniform. She was a bit nervous but also looking forward to it. I can't wait til she comes home to find out how she got on.

Seaforde Butterfly House


We went to see the butterflies a couple of weeks ago although I sat in the car most of the time. Sophs loves going into see the butterflies and Gary likes taking photos of them and when I was going through them I found this one and thought it was really unusual and a great photo.

Cricut Crazy

I thought I had a lot of cartridges and also I thought I was a bit greedy by having a craft robo, cricut, slice, big shot and sidekick but check out this youtube video, she has 6 cricut expressions, plus a cricut create! I lost count of the cartridges she has. I can't get the link to work. Be back in a minute! I have to type it in:
http//www.youtube.com/user/scrappincricut
Hope it works! Watch and be amazed

The link isn't working so if you go to www.youtube.com and search for 'scrappincricut' her videos will come up and choose the ultimate scrap room

Now 4 weeks after surgery

Feeling a good bit better now. Have been getting out and about now, can walk for about half an hour now but get tired quickly. Gary took me to Abbeycentre tonight and I was able to walk from one end to the other and back again, slowly but I did it! Bought some more leggings as thats all I can wear at the minute because of my swelly belly! Got my jeans on at the weekend but had to change back into leggings about half an hour later!

Got my next scrapbook kit from Sarahs Cards last week and it's really lovely, will try and take photos tomorrow and post them. Hopefully I'll be able to scrap with it soon.

I've never watched so much TV, especially the soaps and I also my daily dose of Loose Women. I think I'll get photos out tomorrow and plan some pages from sketchs.

Bye x

I'm Home

I got home on Saturday, sitting here on a recliner with Soph's laptop! I'm recovering well from my operation and have been told I need at least 3 months off. Still sore and taking painkillers but Gary said that I was walking a bit faster! Gary has taken 2 weeks off to look after me and he's doing a really good job, washing, ironing and cooking, plus helping me into the bath! I don't have any stitches to get out, Doctor stitched inside and then glued me, seems to be healing well. Not allowed to do much other than wee walks around the house, hopefully next week I'll be able to go out for a wee walk.

So I won't be scrapping for a while but will upload something as soon as I do

Kit Arrived

Happy Days, kit arrived, along with 3 Aussie mags I had ordered from Angel Crafts. The kit is lovely and I have in mind which photos I'm going to use. Below is the actual kit.
These are the add ons, bloomers and embellies
These are the extras I ordered to go with the kit, extra cardstock, flowers, alpha and two sets of different brads.
I'm really pleased with this kit and can't wait to start using it.


Next Kit

The June Kit from Sarahs Cards if due today so I'm waiting impatiently for a van to come. I can't wait for it to arrive as it's papers I wouldn't usually pick myself but they are really nice. I ordered a few wee extras too, just to cheer myself up! Will post it later.

Tuckaway Station is now Tucked Away!

I'm really pleased with it. I sorted out all my cardstock into colours and got it all stored, it's amazing how much it holds. It just wheels underneath my desk so I now have more room to scrap. Gary just has to put up my rails (from Ikea) for my punches.
I got these wodden drawers from Ikea to but a good while ago. I'd also bought red stain for them and I eventually finished them.

It has Arrived!

My tuckaway station came this afternoon but the paper shelves have went missing between England and here, but delivery man said should be here tomorrow. Have to wait for Gary to build it as I'm not allowed too! Mum and Dad took me to Ikea this morning and I got 6 rails for my punches as seen on someones blog (can't remember who's!) Gary will be busy, though it won't be tonight as we have to go to Sophie's new school, can't believe she going to High School in September. Didn't think I was old enough!!

Tuckaway Station

I'm so excited, I have just ordered a tuckaway station for my cricut, it will go underneath my desk and roll out when I want to use it, I have ordered 18 paper shelves for the bottom so I will store my cardstock in them. This is just a photo off the website (http://www.storage4crafts.co.uk/) I will post a photo when I receive it and get it sorted. So at last I have spent some of my birthday money!
