I HATE FEELING SICK!!!

As you can guess by my title I am feeling a little...well a lot actually under the weather.I have had gastro! I hate Gastro more than any other illness!! I am presuming that it is gastro but Steve and I went out for lunch on Tuesday and straight away I felt awful......but Steve ate the same as me and he is fine. SoI am guessing it is just a coinsidence. But I haven't been scrapping or anything. But I thought I would post my little mothers day accordion card I made also with my scrapapple kit...

Anyway only a short post today...off to lie down...thats if DD decides to do the same!!!

SCRAPAPPLE MOTHERS DAY KIT....

I can now share the rest of my Mother's day mini album that I created with this month's SCRAPAPPLE kit.

I made it from a Kaiser 4x4 mini album. I tell ya...I am not good at reading instructions so it took me a little while to get it together! The patterned papers are by Upsy Daisy Designs and they are gorgeous.The whole kit was so pretty, it was fun using it!!!

Here it is page by page....







Here is another Layout I completed this week and was lucky enough to win again!!! I actually killed two birds with one stone so to speak as I did one Layout for two challenges. .....the Friday nite social scrappers onthe Boxx and color Combos galore.

The photos are of Maya Easter morning at 7 am mind you!!! Every time I would turn around she had chocolate in her mouth!!!! I suppose IT is the only morning we can get away with eating chocolate for breakfast!!!! I have some more Easter photos still to scrap but these ones made me giggle so I had to use these ones first!
Well until next time...thanks for looking.Don't forget to leave me a message if you pop by....Eb xxx

Layout #14 for use your stash challenge....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE!!!!
Today is DH's birthday!!!!!


I am feeling a little tired today. Last night was my step mum's 50th birthday party and I think I spent most of the night chasing my kids around!!! It was fun thought.Great to catch up with family that I don't see very often.
Thought I would post my last two layouts for the use your stash challenge over on the BOXX.

This one I needed to use bright orange.....

CHERISH....





This challenge was to use a transperancy as a background. It doesn't show the effect very well in the photograph though!!! This is a LO about howmuch Will's drawing and writing skills have improved since starting school.The transperancy is a creative imaginations one with school themes all over it.


LEARNING DAILY.....





I have also participated in another challenge on a website called COLOR COMBOS GALORE

Each week there is a new color combo as a challenge. Here is my first entry...

ANYWHERE, ANYHOW!...

I have also finished my mini album for the product showcase feature for Scrapbooking Memories but haven't taken any photos yet. Will be back tomorrow with a sneaky peeky of that.
