Design Recollections

My UKS team mate and on line scrapping friend Jo, gave birth to a beautiful baby girl Jessica on Sunday. Congratulations Jo and Neil & your lovely boys. I wish you all much health and happiness.

You can read all about it and see the gorgeous pink Jessica on Jo’s blog, worth the trip :D

School went back here today and nursery too. Whitney was a bit lost without her sister but I walked her over the road this morning and she trotted off quite happily after that. James took the new phone with him to school today and blow me down he brought it home in one piece LOL! Ok, its only day one

I have lots to do tonight and no energy, think it will all have to wait. I will share my second completed class from this weeks Design Collective Classes. This Coaster book by Ali is a gift for my Godmother who is celebrating her Ruby Wedding Anniversary next month.

We are not allowed to buy gifts for them so I made this and spent the money on an ‘Oxfam Unwrapped’ gift of fresh water for 50 people. I am sure she would approve of that. The little book is full of quotes on marriage, some humorous and some serious. I hope she will like it.

Spent some time last night working on a crop class kit for Angel Crafts crop this weekend. Plan A was completed last week but a few missing needed supplies forced a Plan B lol! So its now done and I have to say oh how I loved the Cosmo Cricket papers YUM! The colours, the texture and double sided cardstock weight papers were gorgeous. I want to work with more of these now I picked up some more fabulous Autumn Leaves stamps from Angela at the weekend, can a girl ever have enough of these?

I see Craft Heaven are running their next crop on May 6th, been a while since we cropped at Craft Heaven, looking forward to that.  However the closing down sale started today, end of June and that will be that for the bricks and mortar shop

Now I am away to drool over some delish mags I bought from the lovely Joanne at BoxRoomBooty, they arrived this morning and are calling my name.

Oh! If you have not done it yet, please do go vote in the final round of MM Idol. Suzanne, my Angel Crafts DT mate and scrapping friend in in the final 3 and oh my, her work has been nothiing short of amazing since the start. We want find out the result until 6PM tomorrow night. I have everything possible crossed for her but come win or lose she is flying a glorious flag for UK scrapbooking all on her own.

Until later xx…
