Altered Composition Book

Basic Grey Cappella Valentine Album

Another quick project to share with you. Have a great weekend!

My Latest Project.....

I thought I would share my latest project with you. Hubby has made this clothes hanger plaque for Sophie's dressing up clothes so I decided to decorate it to match her bedroom using some of the left over paint, some prima flowers and some flowers from Wild Orchid crafts. I couldn't go too over the top with the flowers as I didn't want them to get in the way when the hooks were in use!

Where does the time go?

Well my little girl became a teenager on Saturday and she is getting so grown up! Despite having special needs she notices what the other "young ladies" are wearing and wants to be just like them: clothes, hair, makeup etc.Very girly!
We bought a birthday cake from Asda and it was yummy as you can see lol! If you like chocolate cake I would definately recommend it!

Decorated Candles

What with a busy run up to Christmas I didn't get round to sharing the candles I decorated as gifts for Sophie's Teachers, so here they are!
I used some Vanilla and some Berry scented candles,paper from Paper Artsy, lace, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and stickles.Then I wrapped the finished candles in cellophane and tied with some raffia, I was pleased with the overall effect!

Altered Journal

Christmas Daily 2010

Like many other people I made a Christmas countdown journal. It is now finally finished as this year I took it through to New Years Eve as it is my son's birthday then. This slide show shows a selection of pages from the journal. I haven't shown it all 1) it would be a long slide show and 2)there are pictures of friends and family who I have not asked permission to show.
Anyhow I hope this gives you and idea of the journal. Now it can be put away until next christmas!

TP Roll Vintage Christmas Album

This is an album I made from empty loo roll tubes, before christmas for a swap I hosted on the scrapbeach. As it has now arrived at its destination I thought I would show the video of it here. Please excuse the noisy bird in the bacground he feels he has to compete with me lol!
Thanks for watching!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all my wonderful friends a Happy and Healthy New Year! Lets hope that 2011 is a good one!
Love to you all
