A True Friend

Available now at SS - will be posted tomorrow so go grab it first!

The Birthday Party tag!

Another tag combining the fab talents of Lily Designs (scrapkit), and Suzanne Woolcott - it's called simply, 'The Birthday Party' and you can request it now at SS - it won't be posted on the forum till Monday!  Hope everyone's enjoying the fab weather - I spent the day gardening, more from necessity than choice but at least my lawn's less like a wilderness now.  Planning to have a bar-b-q tomorrow which, by default, will probably mean it will be raining come 5pm - don't you just love the British weather! (and that's rhetorical, btw).  Off to play Google logo Pacman again - I'm so easily entertained, lol. Ciao for now!

Giggles from Cala

Stacey sent me this clip a few weeks back, when Cala was 9 weeks old - is there anything cuter than a baby's giggles?!

A new day, a new tag

Preview of my latest tag creation, using the fab kit of SussieM and Suzanne Woolcott's Gorjuss girls.  You can get it now from SS before anyone else - this one will be posted at the weekend. 

First come, first served!

Another pretty for you to grab before anyone else - I'm calling it 'Bicycle Ride' for pretty obvious reasons, lol. You can request it now at SS before anyone else - I'll be posting it in the Gorjuss folder at the weekend (if I can remember!). This time I used a new kit from Irene Alexeeva, called 'Make Me Smile' - adore the colours, and a gorjuss Suzanne Woolcott girl - hope you like it! Ciao!

'Floral Harvest' - new tag!

Available right now, this tag combining a fantastic scrapkit from Lily Designs and a 'Gorjuss' Suzanne Woolcott cutie - a match made in heaven, imho!  Be the first to grab it now from Sensual Signatures!

New tag up for grabs!

 As promised, I've been busy making some new tags using the fab scrapkits of Lorie Davison. Her stuff is unique and really quirky (like me) and I just had to have her 'Bee Garden' kit. This is the first of the tags using her work - more to follow next week, if I can find the time!  I think this kit co-ordinates perfectly with Suzanne Woolcott's Gorjuss fairies too.

As usual, you can put in a request for this tag over at Sensual Signatures.

The scrap album I'd made for Cala has now been printed up - I'd wanted to order the hard cover version but with shipping at almost £30, I decided to get the soft cover version and ordered 2 of them - one for my Mum's 80th birthday in June, and one to take over to Stacey when we visit next month.  I'm really pleased with the printed result as I wasn't sure what the quality would be like - I was very pleasantly surprised! I think Mum will be thrilled.

Well, I don't have any other news for you, so I'll say adieu for now mes amis!

It's been a while since I had anything significant to blog about, so thought I'd post this latest photo of Cala, who turned 11 weeks old yesterday (7th May). I know she looks a little startled in the picture, but Stacey assures me she was all smiles and giggles right up until the shutter clicked - typical eh! Anyway, this is Cala with her very favourite teddy, nicknamed Juno, after my Mum (June).

I have also been busy adding more pages to Cala's photo album - it now has 25 pages and I still haven't used half of the photos I took when we were in Lanzarote!  Here are a couple of the new layouts:

It's hard to stick to just one theme, as I have so many new and beautiful scrapkits to choose from - but I hope they all work in their own way.  I used a combination of layout artists this time - Lily Designs and SussieM Designs, both absolutely awesome artists, I think you'll agree! I'm also very excited about a new artist I've discovered, whose work I hope to feature in some tags very soon - I just need to save up some money to buy the kits, lol.  Here is a sample of her amazing work:

That's all from me for now - ciao!!!
