A couple more mini books!


The first book is a all about being a mom! I must admit I do love this because it has photos of all my three children as babies and throughout their lives, this is one of my favourites.
The butterfly book is really sweet and has photos of a lovely afternoon in Sutton park with Izzie and her best friend Vivien, I love making mini books about days out and Izzie loves to pick them up and remember special times with me.
I just love this art!!








Gaynor listens to me!!


Just wanted to show you this fun photo of Gaynor at the a April crop, she is pointing to her very own bin, she is now officially a scrapper 'proper' with all the essential kit!! (plastic bag and tape!!)

I've been a busy girl!
















Well this month has flown by! I can't believe it's Crop Sunday this week!! I've been busy working on lots of projects and workshops and have made a few little things I thought you might like to see.

The first piccie is of a book made from toilet rolls, the second a book made from envelopes and the third was made from a beer mat!

April's Crop

Well, we certainly had a quiet crop this month, compared to the last couple! We really missed all of you who couldn't make it, but it was a little more chilled for me as I could do the workshop in just one sitting- Phew!!! We had a very relaxed day and there was lots of very productive scrappin'. Well done to Jean for winning the raffle prize and a very big pat on the back to Paula for winning the challenge blog entry ( O.K.- she was the only entrant!)
Everyone enjoyed making home-made embellishments in the 'Homespun Fun' class. For those of you who missed it, I will re-run this class at a later date!
