Time to get blogging!

Hi-de-Hi Campers!

Well, as you can see, I've not updated my blog for a few days now. So thought it was about time I did something about it.
During the week I received a lovely little vintage album from my swap partner Robyn, for this months mini swap over on Scrapville. The theme for this month is Hopes and Resolutions for 2010!
Thank you Robyn, it's lovely!!!

I've been a bit naughty these last few days, even though we've been busy, trying to get builders round for quotes on work we need doing on our house, I did manage a bit of stash buying, lol!
Lots of yummy stuff on its way, including a pink cuttlebug, hurray!!!!
Now, here's the naughty bit.... I already have one! So how greedy am I?!

Well, lets just say, it's the powers of QVC telly shopping and yes, those TSV easy pay options are such a killer! I just had to have it, sorry!
Well I can always e-bay my green one, or maybe just let the kids play with it.
The thing is, I'm not really a pink person, and green is one of my fave colours, but having recently bought the fabby 12" xcut guilotine (also in cream and pink) I thought this would be the perfect match for my (one day) fabby craft room! Until then, I may aswell have a co-ordinated crafty mess on my kitchen table when crafting, lol!

I hope you enjoy looking at Robyn's album. She has some wonderful demo's on utube, including showing this album. If you'd like to take a peek here it is. enjoy!xxx

My Latest Mini Album. This one is for Gemma, my January swap partner and the theme is Hopes and Resolutions for 2010!
























Snowing again!!!

Oh yes, it's here again, but just a light dusting today to add to the magic, or chaos, depending which way you look at it! Personally, I love snow!

Well, try as I might, unfortunately I'm still having difficulty creating a slide show, boo hoo :( so it looks like it's back to photos for now. Thought you might like to see my latest mini album. I made this for Gemma, my January mini album swap partner. The theme this month was Hopes and Resolutions for 2010! I've tried to keep this one simple with lots of journaling spots and room for photos. Gemma has two little girls, so tried to make this one nice and girlie, which made a nice change for me, as I have two boys!
Anyway, I hope you like it and Gemma does too!

Take care out there everyone, and happy sparkles to you all!

Crafting all day, horray!!!!!

Hi Everyone!

Well I've been a bit naughty today. After my rather slushy wet and cold walk back from taking the kids to school this morning, I decided to forget the housework and do something fun, so made a start on my next mini album, lol!

This months theme/challenge is New Years Resolutions and hopes for 2010! Hmmm, the titles a bit of a challenge in itself! Anyway, after lots of cutting, sticking and glueing I've nearly finished, horray!!!! Shame the house still looks upside down, but at least I have a nice album to look at!

I hope to take some pictures of it later and create my first slide show, gulp! now there's a challenge, I've not got a clue how to do it, but hey I'll give it a go, so watch this space, lol!

Happy Sparkles to you all!!!

Our Magical Snowy Walk!





























I know at this stage we're all getting a little fed up with all this snow , but thought I'd grab my camera when we went for our lovely woody walk yesterday, to try to capture some of its true magic!

Afterall, when it's all gone, it won't be long before we're all complaining about the heat, lol!

Suzie xxxx :)
