Yes It's me!!!!!! I look like a boy, yes i know!!! Lol.
A school picture taken 1n 1981, In my much younger days, when every one aspired to have an Afro bigger than the late Michael Jackson!! I never quite managed that no matter how much i grew my hair!!
This layout came about as a result of a challenge i was set by Marie who was with her daughter Steph who runs Indigo Mill on line shop.Basically i was given this sheet of paper from the new 7Gypsies Victoria range, which you can find here : http://www.indigomill.co.uk/shop/-new-in-/new-7-gypsies-victoria/7g-victoria-walker/ and asked how i would scrap it. So this is what i did! I was actually in no rush to scrap this photo of me, ( surprise surprise) however this paper was ideal. I managed to use most of the sheet by reversing it and taking elements such as the large rectangles with the picture and journalling block, the scalloped border the scalloped circles from the reverse, the butterflies and lastly the words days which forms part of my title.

Had these prima paintables a while, bought from Crafty stash at the Exhall crop, and Was inspired by Tracey Hudson's paintables to finally get mine done.

A picture of me on my wedding day with my brides maids taken at Cannon Hill park, gosh i can't believe itwill be 6 years the end of this month, time really does fly, painted using a combination of Derwent Inktense watercolour pencils and Twinkling H20's.

Lewis's nursery photo taken last year i can't believe how grown up he looks and Handsome of course.
Photo taken on our holiday in jamaica, it still makes me smile when i remember lewis's pure delight of being able to run and play in the sea.

Here are my three most recent layouts, as you can see i love to stitch on my layouts, I started off as a cross stitcher, then a card maker (which i still do) and now a scrapper.

To blog or not to blog?
I spend that much time surfing everybody else's blog i thought it was about time i started my own blog and scrapping more. I hope to share my creations with you, just be warned i'm a very slow scrapper. The main subjects for my layouts are my two little darlings Lewis and Ella-mae, i don't have any baby pictures of myself, i'm the youngest of six children and i just don't think it was a priority for my parents struggling to make ends meet, so i'm determined that my children will have lots of memories. Ok i've gone off on one!!! Sorry.
