I've not been feeling too well these last few days; bad cough, cold and really sore throat, but I feel like I'm on the mend now. I'm lucky because I can get over the little illness, but Callum can't get over his illness, not yet at least. The good weather has been a big problem here because Callum would love... Read more →

Just had to scrapbook the photos from Cheltenham and Matthew's sad end to the excited anticipation of the Bubble Clock. I really felt sorry for him and if there had been a toy shop in the shopping mall I would have bought some bubble mixture, just so he could pop his own bubbles. I used some patterned paper by Bo...

My Ali Edwards Perspectives mini album is finished; My Life Right Now. Did the finishing touches today and I'm really pleased with the it. I used my favourite patterned papers by Basic Grey; the Lollipop Shoppe range and the Gypsy range. The colours from the two ranges go so well together and tie in with the letter stickers I had...

Just wanted to let you know that my bookcase has arrived and has already been filled with my scrap products and with photo albums from the year dot. The bottom shelf holds my cardstock, patterned papers, albums and files containing large rub-ons, stickers, etc. The middle shelf holds pre-digital photo albums which can now be easily accessed for scanning and...

On Thursday the boys both had their hair cut, this was Callum's first proper haircut and he was as good as gold. Infact so was Matthew, and believe me we've had many trips to the barbers resulting in tears, walk outs and bribery! Matthew has been suffering with an eye infection this week. This has meant we have been carrying... Read more →

I used Christmas and Birthday money to buy subscriptions to Creating Keepsakes and Simple Scrapbooks back in January (both from the US, not received SS yet). Flicking through CK I found a great simple layout for... Read more →

Easter Sunday was lovely and sunny, perfect weather for an Easter Egg Hunt and a water fight! The boys loved the egg hunt. Off they went with their little blue buckets (which my sister and I used to play with) looking for eggs. They both couldn't wait to eat their eggs, so mid-way through they sat down and had a...

I've been working on a layout about Callum for a few days now and have just finished it. The reason it has taken me this time is due to the subject matter - his ever increasing vocabulary. I wrote one list, then another and then wrote it out on patterned paper, only to go to bed and remember other words.... Read more →

Today would normally have been a day to dread; a visit to the dentist. However, I have a new dentist and he made me feel very happy, in fact I left the Dentist Surgery with a smile on my face. All because he filled a chip that has been on my front tooth ever since I was about 8 years... Read more →
