A Caravan Cushion ...............

Hi everyone I have a sewing project to share with you today.  I made this cushion for my Mum and Dad's wedding anniversary yesterday.  They have a caravan so I thought it would go nicely in there. I drew the caravan myself and then traced all the pieces out onto fabric.  I really enjoyed making it although it did take quite a while but I'm pleased with how it turned out. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Another Double Scrapbook Layout .......

Hi everyone, well that's another week whizzed by and sadly the end of my holiday.  I have a funeral tomorrow morning and then work in the afternoon. It has been a really wet cold day here in Norfolk, I gave up and put the heating on this afternoon.  I know some people won't turn their heating on until October but I hate being cold so whether it's August or not the heating went on!  I think I will need my hot water bottle tonight as well as it's so cold and I can't get my feet to warm up. Oh I do sound like an old lady don't I lol!

Anyway onto my layout, this is made with the same sketch as the layout in my previous post.  These double layouts work well for photos for holiday's as I always take loads! These photos are from last year's holiday at a day out to Le Mont, Saint Michel in France which is a very strange place. It was once a village on a tiny island that gets cut off by the sea but now it is a tourist attraction.  It was a shame it was filled with souvenir shops as there was such a lot of history there.  

Thanks for stopping by.

A Scrapbook Page and a Holiday Photo ............

Hi everyone, my blog has been quiet as we have been away on holiday to Majorca for a week.  We had a great time with lovely hot weather.   I can't believe how the weather has changed now we are home, we went away and left summer weather and it feels like Autumn since we have been home. I had to wear a fleece today for the first time in weeks!  Anyway I shouldn't complain as we have had a fairly good summer this year.

My layout is of a recent visit to a Dinosaur park.  I have not done a double page layout for ages but they are great for when you have lots of photos to scrap which always happen to me as I'm always busy snapping on days out.   The sketch is an older one from Shimelle.com.  I made another layout using this same layout from my holiday from last year but I will share that one with you later in the week.

The picture is one of the 3 of us on holiday.  Grace loved holiday so much she cried her eyes out on the night we got home as see wanted to go back to Majorca!

I hope to get caught up on all your blogs soon and see all your lovely makes!

Thanks for stopping by.
