100% Cute Girl...NOT!!

This layout I did for A Trip Down Memory Lane as Guest Designer for March. This is my Lacie who is in the dog house today after making me late for picking up my youngest from School and making me run...which I don't do!!


Again using the Basic Grey Two Scoops range including patterned papers, rub-ons, brads and gorgeous pink buttons in various sizes the crochet flowers are made by my Mom using various DMC threads and I finally figured out how to do french knots which are in the middle of the rub-on flowers from Heidi Swapp.

Well I hope you like xxx

T'is Friday

And we all love Friday don't we :)


Well I did fiddle with that layout from yesterday, didn't really alter too much, but I did figure out what was bugging me, those rounded sides on the patterned paper. I decided yesterday with 2 minutes to spare before I was supposed to pick up the youngest from School to chop the tops off, not such a fab idea as I cut it wonky as hell and I sliced into the cardstock, went to School annoyed with myself!! Sat thinking how I could now rectify a wrong that I had created and decided to tear the paper, which had I thought of that to start with I would still have cardstock in tact, but Jay says you can't tell, what do you think....



And finally here is a layout I did for ATDML as Guest Designer this month which was with Basic Grey Two Scoops which terrified me as those who know me know I don't have girls or sisters and I hate scrapping myself but the kit was mostly pink, my nightmare lol...idea...my Mom's cat Lily-Mae who is a real stuck up posh pet, so here she is turned to sepia because I thought the bike plant pot looked like it belonged in a bygone era :)


I have another layout I did but that's for another day xxx

Blog-a-Thon

A few fellow bloggers have started up a Blog-a-Thon over on UKS today, which is a fab idea and I like nothing more than chillin' with a coffee and being nosey, so I thought I had better up-date mine :)


My gorgeous Thickers arrived, some of the new ranges including the gorgeous Jewellery Box in a lovely metallic red.







Then yesterday my tickets turned up for the Chelsea Flower Show, I'm so excited at the thought of actually being there rather than watching on TV with a biscuit and a cup of coffee, roll on the 21st May :)






And I did this layout last night featuring Kyle, only problem is I'm not happy with it...can't tell you why, just am but I'll pop it in his album, wait a week then print the photo off again to do a better effort otherwise it will just bug me. I used BasicGrey Mellow range, AL stamps and a Prima birdie that will be prised off if (no that's definitely when) I do the layout again lol. Oh in real life its actually straight, its my photography skills that are wonky lol.






Tomorrow I will upload my layouts that I did as Guest Designer for ATDML this month, if you fancy a look they are called 'Queen Lily', '100% Cute Girl' which is Lacie and a 'Mom' card.
