Here are the 3 layouts which were published in Scrapbook Magazine.  The layout above shows Harrison, Hadley and Dylan sitting in our suitcases when we were packing to come home.  I was trying to smuggle them back to Scotland! LOL!!!

 This layout shows Dylan, when his Mum spiked up his hair when she was putting his sun cream on.  The two layouts above were made using Fancy Pants - About a Boy papers and die-cut embellishments.  I put the wings at either side of the middle photo of Dylan, as i thought he looked so Angelic - which is so not like him! LOL!!!

Finally, this photo shows my Grandad, My Mum and my big sisters, Sheena and Moira and was taken 10 years before I was born! I made the paper flowers by drawing a spiral on  the reverse of the paper, and cutting it out using deckle-edge scissors.  I then coiled them into a flower shape and added some leaves cut out of the reverse of the paper.  The papers I used ae My Mind's Eye - Lost & Found.

Thanks for stopping by!

Time to blow my wee trumpet - toot toot toot!!!!  I have just been published in Scrapbook Magazine issue no. 59 where I took part in the Budget Challenge.  I had to make 3 layouts, using only £10 worth of materials.  I had such fun doing this, and is was amazing to see how far your supplies could go working over the 3 layouts.  The picture quality is not very good I'm afraid, as I have just got a new printer, and I cannot get the scanner to work!! I had to take photographs and they look a bit squint!!  It is brilliant to see your work in print in a magazine, and it is one of the things crossed off my Bucket List!! I will upload the actual layouts tomorrow, as the photos are very poor.

 Another thing I would like to score off my Bucket List, is to be a Designer on a Card blog.  So, when I looked at the Some Odd Girl Blog, I had a moment of excitement when I saw the following:

We are looking for 1 lucky and talented crafter to join us for a 2 month guest spot for December and January! You’ll join us for our challenges and releases, be featured on our blog along side the Odd Girls and in general, just have FUN!

The criteria was, simply, to upload a card using an Odd Girl Digi stamp, so, here we go!  I have just finished making this card as Marie and I have a stall on Saturday at a local Coffee Morning.  I would be soooooooooooo excited to be a part of Kristy's design Team, even just for 2 months - it would be bliss!! Wish me luck!!

Woo-Hoo! Good News!!!  I have been published in Scrapbook Magazine yet again!!  Issue 58, in the Reader's Gallery where the theme was Mums!!  I sent in this layout which shows my Mum when she was around 13 years old.  She is wearing her Sunday best as you can see, complete with beautiful handbag!!  The photo itself is a bit dark, but I think you can still see it okay here.  Must go and prepare dinner.  bye for now!!!!

Published again!

How could I forget!!!! I have been published yet again in Scrapbook Magazine Issue 55.  I am so excited!!!!! (in the words of the song, but don't ask me to sing!!!))  this shows my  beautiful wee Grandsons, wearing cowboy hats which their Mummy, Daddy and Auntie Marie had been wearing when they went out the previous night.  I just love the photo where Harrison is lifting up the hat so as he can see Hadley.  He has such a cheeky wee smile on his face while he is doing it!

I am a happy girl today! One of my layouts was featured in Scrapbook Magazine Issue 53. This was a scraplift from a previous edition of the magazine. The photo shows my Mum, my big brother and one of my big sisters. Mum is out haning washing on the line. I love the way her stockings are rolled down to her ankles!!! This was taken about 10 years before I was born as I was a bit of an afterthought!

I thought I would show you the other pages I have had published

Here is the second page which I didn't know about!

Oh dear it has been so long since I posted anything here. Shame on me! I have just found out I will be in Scrapbook Magazine once more with one of my CHristmas pages. So excited once more!!! I discovered I appeared twice in issue 49 which was a lovely surprise.
