One Dimple

Good Afternoon,

I spent yesterday firstly doing the final CJ entry before they come back home, I'm not sure whether I am excited about it coming home or terrified, we'll see.

Then I scrapped this cute little photo of my youngest shortly after his Sport's Day in the Summer of 2006, it was a blistering hot day, bless they did so well and this little hero walked away with 3 victories.




I found my bazzill cardstock to match the peak of his cap but I was struggling with blue papers, and what I had left was just off-cuts so I decided to rip away and make little squares from Rhonna Farrer papers (again lol) to create interest, I also gutted the cardstock to make my photo matt. My journaling was done on the computer using Word and reads...


"Ever since you mastered the art of smiling at about 5 weeks old you've had this utterly adorable, totally kissable dimple. You don't have two, just the one always there when you smile, so beautiful and oh so cute."

Added some Chip Chatter and Rhonna Farrer Playtime letters, some blossoms and used my new 7Gypsies wax seal kit with the love heart in the middle of the flower.

Boys 'n' Bugs...Still!!!

Hello, we still have germs in our house, well not in the bathroom the amount of cleaning I've done, but the boys do...I'm hoping its come/coming to and end now, I'm touching wood, actually I look like a tree hugger I'm hanging on that tight lol.


Anyway, last week I scrapped this photo of Kyle, my eldest on Sports Day, its rather sad and every time I look at this its with a very heavy heart. He was told off for squirting water on the grass by his teacher, who made that year of School hell, but he triumphed and came out the other side and now enjoys his last year of Primary School. He also won a couple of races. I used mainly Rhonna Farrer papers and matching rub-ons which I added onto the Chip Chatter title to make it more visible.


If you fancy having a lovely kit just as a treat then pop along to Gotta Craft and pick up their new March kit, its from Dream Street Papers called Paint Your World, its rather nice and mines on order.

Bah Mumbug

BAH MUM-BUG...That's exactly how my Mother's Day has turned out, what better way to show me that I am a Mom to two boys than by being sick since Friday evening and also having the dreaded 'd' which I refuse to write in full because its a nasty, nasty word lol. Yes I feel like I've gone through half a gallon of antibacteria spray, run up a huge water bill and not forgetting the bin filled with kitchen roll, bless these little creatures of mine!!


In light of that I did have some presents thrown at me in between toilet runs, namely some chocolates and a lovely Kitten book by Rachael Hale, which I will share with you another day.


My fellow blogger and friend MJ has kindly made my night which is fab, Mandijane awarded me the 'You Make My Day' award and I'm chuffed to bits that my mad cap world makes someone smile, although I think the playlist helped lol. I was so fed up tonight so thank you, love ya hun :) xx




I wonder who will be the lucky bloggers who 'Make My Day' I think it should be sent straight back to MJ but who will be the other 8 :) xxx
