Hi honeys...Im back!

...from the darkness of my sofa! lol!

As promised (or maybe threatened?!) in my previous post, Alma and I have been working with our freebie papers from the latest issue of Scrapbook Magazine in our efforts to get ourselves in print once again!

Well I am done, and with the half a dozen bits of A4 size paper including some embellie elements. I have made no less than 4 cards, 3 scrap pages (including one hanging one), a gift tag, a tag album, a calendar and two notebooks - one for my Christmas card list, the other for gifts. Close ups are shown in my slide-show below, but here are my group pics:






Here is a piccie of a tag that is missing from the slide show...for some reason photobucket wouldnt upload it? Its my sisters triplets...yes triplets!



Alma has made even more pieces than that...WOW...Im sure they will be featuring on her lovely blog soon!

Anyway, I dare them not to give us a little mention after all our efforts! Such fun...but then they were lovely papers, which does make a nice change for freebies!

Hip news: a quiet week this week but next week I have physio, an MRI and acupuncture...kill or cure eh!

Special sparkle delivery this week for Valerie for her appointment, and for our Lesleys pooch Charlie - get well soon buddy!

Oh Sue - I'm soooo impressed with your efforts - they are, without exception, just gorgeous. It does however beg the question - how come your stash bill is the size it is if you can so obviously be quite thrifty when the challenge arises LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Seriously though - must go and find these papers and see what I can do. Like the Christmas shopping and card list books.
