Hi, I hope you have had a lovely summer.  I will be relieved when the girls are back at school and everything routine again.
It is so much harder to keep up with things when on holiday. We have just had a week in France, and I loved it.  I can't wait to put my photos into the Project Life albums. So watch this space as I want to do this as soon as I can, as it is so much harder remembering stuff later.  These are from Paris, the top one on the Pont d'Art, and the second at Versailles.


The new Autumn - Winter  Catalogue is now LIVE.
There are some fantastic new Stampin' Up! Products in there.  Just in time to prepare your Christmas Cards.  Yes...
You can link to the new catalogue Here

Scrapbooking Weekend!

Last weekend I had the pleasure of going to a Scrapbooking Retreat.  I had so much fun, and even made some pages.  I do not usually do scrapbooking, however when a friend suggested it, I jumped at the chance.  I met some lovely girls and made some friends for life!  Thank you Carole Bryson for hosting the event and for Lesley Lendon, Kim Fee and Cathryn Perkins who put up with me!

My daughter was clearing out her room and in amongst her rubbish pile I found some photos she didn't want...so, ever the hoarder, I grabbed them.  The colours were perfect for my scrapbook pages, however I didn't know at the time!


The colours in this layout are do vibrant and cheerful - Crushed Curry, Real Red, Pool Party, Smoky Slate and Very Vanilla.  The DSP is one of the new ones  'Flashback'.  We also made use of a new punch, which I haven't got, but is definitely on my Wish List now - 'What's Up'.  We have used the framelits 'On Film' which is a striking one.   The font is a Sissex one, belonging to Carole.  It is all her layout as well.


I love this photo, taken at Harrods.  Once again 'Flashback' DSP used, however to give the page some umph, Carole has designed it to use the Hexagonal Framelit, and made great use of the punched out hexagons!
I have yet to do the journalling on either of these pages.  Soon...before I forget.  However I will need an album to put the pages in, so one thing at a time!
If you would like to order any of the products used in this scrapbook layout, click on the image below and that should take you direct to my Stampin' Up! store.
