The story so far..

I just love to decorate boxes and make albums to put inside (I even bought a pair of cups and saucers yesterday just for the box, the cups are that small they may as well go outside a dolls house with a plant in...!)

The box I'm showing you today was a plain brown box with an accordian style album inside it ready to decorate.. If I buygift boxed (you know the boxes I mean.. you could stand on them they are that sturdy) aftershave or perfume for people as presents they are given with the demand that they do Not ever throw the box away it must come

back to me.....! (What am I like?).

This one I was just going to use for my sons wedding photos but then decided it was to be used for my best photos...(I didn't take a picture of the page when my grandson had an ear infection, I must add it just to warn you how bad a childs ear infection can get so be warned..!!).

The other photo I must mention is of my hubby and my youngest son at my nieces wedding, It is the best photo ever of these 2 together even though we were on our way out through the middle of the dance floor believe it or not.. Oh and the one of my youngest son as Best Man, The Bride and Groom too, I best not forget that there is one of me and my grandson too.... Oh here have a look for yourselves... I need to add embelishments and text...

I just need you to leave me a message (so that I can click on your name to find you), no link needed however you can do a link and tell everyone if you want to spread the word...

My niece will read and pick the winner.. I'm not even giving you a date, it will be done as soon as I'm up to 1,000 or just after if it happens whilst i'm away between the 12th-17th August.

Even Better...

After showing my friends the notebook I posted yesterday they have asked me to make them some for christmas stocking fillers..

I had started some more last night.. Yeah I was sat on my bed...Lol.. I know that there is always plenty of room on my bed...!

I added some beads ( I do love working with them) I also wake up with them stuck to me though at times....

I also need to make some for boys..

Does anyone know the best glue to use on the spines of books etc.. I have heard of Hodge Podge glue but never seen any..

Have you notice the Link to Pink Gems to win the candy.. Well my son has just called and had a moan (he must take after me) and after asking him to read an email sent to me by Marie my new best friend from PCP (Paper Craft Planet) to tell me how it is done, he read it and took over so it is a very basic post with a link that you must take a peek at as the stamps from there are fantastic. The snowman card I made last week, the stamp is from there.

Well I best add the photos...

Please leave some love and tell me what you think....

Fit as a Fiddle....

Thanks for coming back... I didn't think I would have time to do this before work but as I have here it is...
I was playing in bed last night (keep it clean Please)and made a note book. There is a stall on our local market selling plain notebooks with no cover on them and as they are very cheap (they are closing down)I got £5 worth and am going to have a look later to see if they have any left. I love a bargain...
The little cards I made a few days ago but the photos I took were not very good.
Some of the images are from Katharina a wonderful lady on PCP..Thanks Katharina..
I will be selling the notebooks at a car boot in a couple of weeks time.
Hope you like everything and leave me some much needed Love...!

I'll be back!

Sorry laddies about not being around for a few days.
I'm suffering with a migraine at the moment and have lost my Mojo.
I always bounce back so please call back and have another Peek soooon.
Try on Friday I should have left something sweet.. I'm thinking of giving a little candy soon too as I am creeping up to my very first 1,000 hits..

It's Christmas...

Well It is a christmas card again for me today... You can blame Tabby (I follow her blog daily) and she had a card made with a cute snowman stamp from Pink Gem (here in the UK) last week and I had had my eye on these for a while... even down to putting them in my basket then at the last moment thought.. "No you are on a spending ban"...Lol.. as most of you know that lasted all of 2-3 hours ;o)
Well after seeing her card I just could not stop myself... My fingers have a mind of their own and if the laptop is on my knee well...! I have tried smacking my hand and even just sitting on them but it never works and I don't get much done that way...!
That's enough of my 'Rabbiting' for today...

My card.. I love the colour combo and the image.. Oh and the large snowflake I bought last year but never got around to using them.. A card is not a card any more unless I have added some sort of beading....or charm..
The thing I never seem to be satisfied with is the colour effect of the snow.. I think I just do a little too much..! Never mind I will try again..

Leave me some love and let me know what you think of it...
