I'm on a roll...

I'm trying to work my way through 2 kits, but have really become tired over the same papers, so I have gotten another kit down from my room and using parts of that one too.


This layout was done for UkScrappers March wk 2 challenge here.  I made a flap with the photos to get more on the page.





I thought 50+9 sounded younger!
Bowling @ Nottingham - the contest is usually between Doran and Charlie - I always have 3rd place (not last - 3rd!)

busy weekend...

 Catching up on all the pictures I took on a trip to Highfields...I think I have too many pictures.

I'm trying to use all the elements in a couple of Sarah's Cards kits.  I will work my way through them..and then I can buy more!!
 Charlie and Dad building the bonfire on Bonfire night
 Again at Highfields, I think this was a trip from September - journalling is about bringing back memories of going when we were younger, fishing for tadpoles.
 Charlie's homework project - just need to copy the film to cd and include in pocket with journalling - they had to present there favourite nursery rhyme character, he chose the big bad wolf and made his own version with the help of his cousins - The big bad wolf, little pig and red riding hood!
 Thanks to Charlie playing with his felt tips he found that if you splat them really hard they make a cool blob..so I used them on my LO.  Now the felt tips are mine  hahaha

Old picture of me and my Bro.
More pictures/LO of Highfields (Nottingham University Park - as I think its name is now)













Still more kit left...so off to make some more

More layouts that seem to be having a Kraft card backing theme...

 March week 1 challenge from UKScrappers, use a sketch (below) and distressing or tearing + 5 different patterned papers.  Used an old Sarahs Cards kit (I think August 2010) - really enjoyed doing this, apart from when you have placed it all down and then realise you have to then take it apart to stick it down.  It did take me a while as I was watching Covert Affairs while sticking! (not the best of ideas).
Sketch for LO of Mum + Dad
Lovely Charlie doing his best Model pose at Highfields.  Check out the face!!

Simple Recipe - Feb 2012

LO done using the Simple Recipe for Feb 2012 from UK Scrappers here, I'm going to use these colours again to use up the other papers I have.  These photos were taken at the Nottingham Christmas fair - took Charlie a little persuasion to get me on the ride, after finally agreeing I loved it, I always did love the merry go round!
