WOYWW #103

Good Morning Bloggers!!!  Happy Wednesday.  I hope the weather is much better where you guys are because right now here in Co Donegal the weather is awful – wet and very windy, not the kind of weather we should be having at this time of year, but hey! Mother Nature always does her own thing.

So on my desk this morning is this lot:

Looks quite boring I know but trust me there are WIP’s here that ARE to be finished this week.

These 2 WIP’s will be finished today (she says convincingly) One is a mini album that I made almost 2 years ago but never finished. I have photo’s printed out ready to go in this and then I share it with you all tomorrow. The other WIP is in the form of the 2 photo’s and some instructions. These are for the weekly challenge on UKScrappers.

These fabulous books are my latest purchase and I have only managed to flick through quickly for a peep but they are great so hopefully I will have lots of flowers and motifs made very soon to use on my LO’s and cards (she says even more convincingly!)

So there you have it, my space this wednesday morning !

Thanks for stopping by,

Mirror Image ?

No. Two cats x Bailey & Murphy

I love this photo of Bailey & Murphy and its been in my ‘to scrap’ pile for ages now. The two of them were sitting on the sofa so close together that I had to look twice myself! It really does look like a reflection don’t you think ?

This is my LO for last weeks weekly challenge on UKScrappers. The criteria was to use only one of something, 1 sheet of pretty paper, 1 button, 1 bloom, 1 piece of ribbon etc. It was actually a great challenge to get the MOJO going as being restricted to what I could use meant that I didn’t have loads of stuff to faff about with.

The one bloom rule was allowed to be ‘stretched’ and could have many layers so I did take advantage of that:

I really like the black & green combo – I must use that again.

Puppy Love

My crafting MOJO is coming back slowly but surely. I’ve had fun playing around with this paper bag album over the last few days which I have filled with cute  photo’s of Lincoln. I used the March Gottacraft Kit which was Echo Park ‘For the Record’  and added only a few blooms and themed buttons (cute paw prints, bones and a dog house) some doilies and odd bits of ribbon.

I love the contrast of rich and subtle colours in this range,  its definitely one I need to buy more of!

I decided not to put any journaling on the pages as the photo’s pretty much speak for themselves.  What's that famous quote – ‘A picture speaks a thousand words’

These are the pages:

Cute bone button!

Aww!  Spot the paw print button.

This is my favourite page!  The photo’s are only small but I like the idea of the film strip feel. He has such fun with that bucket too!

Fluff in motion.

So the MOJO flow’eth!  Lets hope it stays that way because I have a few projects that I need to do that have deadlines over the next couple of weeks and another mini album that I did well over a year ago which never actually got finished so its on my list too.

February–Project 12

Well after starting this DLO for Project 12 way back at the beginning of April at the Loch House Retreat I have finally added the journaling and its finished!  Talk about procrastinate . . . . . I must be the Queen of Procrastination!!

Here is the Project 12 sketch for February:

And my finished double layout:

I had quite a few lovely photo’s for February but had to narrow it down to just a few and I definitely had to use the one of Joe with his Chocolate Fudge Muffins!  They tasted as good as they look too. 

Left Hand Page

The weather in February was actually not bad at all considering the time of year, we actually had a lot of days out with the dogs and some fun family time around the house during the school half term break.

Right Hand Page

So now that the February pages are done its onto March & April!
See I'm not that far behind. . . . lol
