Very bad blogger

Yes that is me, I am officially a very bad blogger lol. So what has happened since I was last on here, back at work again, kids are back at school, homeworks!!all the kids activities started up and so has the mum taxi service, I suppose it's just getting into the routine again. I have been scrapping a little again, I still go to scrapaholix once a month and also a monthly crop run by Cleo Crafts which I love but really I've had very little scrappin time otherwise.

Oh Dear!

Oh Dear! indeed I have been neglecting my blog, not very good at this am I. Well I'm back at work again, although it wasn't too bad as the kids don't start back until Monday, I'm so trying to get back into a routine again. I really am missing the extra lie-in in bed. Hopefully this weekend I'll manage to get a little scrapping done :)

UKS Summer Stash Bash


Over on UKS they are having a summer stash bash, here is my LO from day 3. This is the 1st I have tried but I can't wait to try out the mini book from Annettes class on Mon, hopefully a few of these classes will out a dent on my stash mountain.

Back from my hols

Back from a week in Fermanagh, well we got back on Sat but only got my photos uploaded so I can let you see what we got up to. At least it was sunny for some of the time, we visited alot of relations who live in the area.This is Devenish Tower, Norman and Hannah climbed to the top, they had to go up 4 steep ladders, they rest of us only made it up the first one!


Marble Arch Caves, it had been quite a few years since we had been down in the caves (pre kids) they all enjoyed them, except Nicola was a little afraid of the little boat trip
Matthew enjoyed playing with the big cannons at Enniskillen Castle.
Walking down a street at the American Folk Park in Omagh.

Look what I did!!


As the title says look what I did, my first bind it all project and my first go at making my version of prima beauty marks, there is a fantastic thread about these on UKS. I made a little error with the acetate but thanks to Annette on UKS I know what to do next time. Anyway the book is for Heather and I'm sure she will appreciate it anyway.

We are going away for a week to lovely (sunny?) Fermanagh tomorrow, better get started packing!!

My Bind it All


Yeah!!! my bind it all has arrived from USA, I'm so happy with it. I got such alot of goodies with it, there were supposed to be wire cutters as well but when I emailed the seller she said it was just an over sight and will send them out. I've had a little play but it is now back in it's box because I am working an a little 6x6 wedding album for my cousin Cyril. Matthew was page boy at the wedding and we are going to visit when we on on holiday in Fermanagh, it has to be finished by tomorrow, should get it finished by tonight:)
