The Handmade Fair Scrapbook Page

Hi all and happy Sunday. 

Just a quick post before Poldark starts as it's my favourite program at the moment, so can't be missed. 

 This is a scrapbook page I made a few weeks ago now about my trip to the handmade fair back in September. It was such a great day out! 

Thanks for stopping by.

Holiday Album Title Page ..........

Hi all and happy Monday to you.  I have the title page of my holiday scrapbook to share with you today.  Everytime I look at this photo I just want to be back in Cornwall!  I followed a great sketch from Stuck - 15th August Sketch to make this page.   All the supplies were from my July Like for Ever kit.  I can't wait to get some more pages made for this album!

Thanks for stopping by.

Summer is Here Layout!

Hi all, I've been away on holiday in Cornwall for 2 weeks and I'm now just catching up with my blog again.  Things were very stressful before we went as my hubby got a bad case of food poisoning and we didn't know if we would get to go.  Thankfully he did improve and we got to go later in the day rather than in the morning like we had planned.  It was hardwork for me though as I had to do all the packing, pack all the car and do all the driving down to Cornwall. It was all worth it though as we did have such a fantastic time!  

Here are a few pics from our holiday

So onto my layout, these were a couple of snaps of Grace in the garden when the weather finally got warm one day!  All the materials are from my Like for Ever scrapbook kit that I get monthly and I also added some gorgeous Ice cream ribbon from Crafty Ribbons to finish it off!

Thanks for stopping by.

First BBQ of 2016 ............

Hi all and happy Tuesday to you!  I made this layout using a sketch from the Like for Ever blog from  from National Scrapbook day.  These are just a few photos I took on my phone when we had the lovely warm weather a few weekends ago.  For once we were prepared for the hot weather and had a bbq in the evening so I thought I should document it. 

The supplies are from my Like for Ever kit.  I've made quite a few layouts from this kit and there is not much left now but I might get a couple more layouts from it.  This one certainly did not use much paper lol!  

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!

Hi all and happy National Scrapbooking Day to you!  I'm just popping on the blog with a layout before I start joining in with some of the fun challenges going on in blogland and facebook this morning.  

This layout was made using my current Like for Ever scrapbooking kit and is photos of last week's mini fun run that Will and Grace ran along with some of Grace's cousins.  I love it when you can scrap photos quickly so you don't forget the memories!

Have a lovely day whatever your plans are!

Thanks for stopping by.

Celebrate 8!

Yippee it's Friday!  I hope you are having a great day!  I have a scrapbook page that I made of Grace's 8th birthday to share with you today.  I saw a layout on the Like for Ever blog here which inspired this layout.  Once I had seen it this layout just popped into my head and I had to make it lol! 

It's quite different from my normal pages but I'm really pleased with how it turned out! Most of the supplies are from my Like for Ever scrapbooking kit that I get each month.  This month's papers are just the perfect colours to scrap Grace's birthday so I was very pleased about that.

Thanks for stopping by.

My First Marathon Scrapbook Layout ..........

Hi all and happy Wednesday to you!  Just a quick post from me today to share a layout that I made about the marathon that I ran recently.   I've used my Like for Ever kit supplies to make this layout and I'm pleased with how it turned out. I love the floral die cuts that came in this kit, there's not too much left of it now either!  Sorry I have not visited your blogs lately I'm full of a cold and it's worse by the time I finish work in the evening! I will catch up with you all soon. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Project Life Page ...........

Hi all and happy Tuesday to you.  I have a project life spread to share with you today.  I gave project life a try last year and then I decided I didn't like it as much as my scrapbook pages but I've seen some nice pages lately that have more paper in the background and I really like those so I've decided to give it another go!  

This is my first project life page for this year.   I'm really pleased with how it turned out and I have lots more memories captured!

Thanks for stopping by.

Flipping Good ................

Hi all I hope you have had a good day.  It's been nice and sunny here in Norfolk today.  I've a scrapbook page of pancake day to share with you tonight.  We always have fun on pancake day and I love to make a layout with the photos.  I thought I would get in one of the photos this time too as normally they only feature Will and Grace.  

I made my layout using a kit from Like For Ever which is monthly kit I subscribe to. I also followed a wonderful sketch from Stuck 1st of February Sketch Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by.

First School Photo Layout .............

Hi all I hope you have had a good week.  Ours has not quite gone to plan as Grace got another sickness bug that started yesterday!  That's the third one this winter. I really can't wait for summer to come so we can get rid of all this illness!  

Anyway onto my layout, this was Grace's first photo she had taken when she started school in 2011. Most of the stash on this page is from my current 'Like for Ever Kit'.  This is my 5th layout this month with the kit so I am doing well!  The typewriter on my layout was made using a stamp and die set I got of my friend Marianne for Christmas and I thought it fitted well with the school theme. 

Thanks for stopping by.

A Disney Layout ...............

Hi all and happy Friday to you! I have a layout to share from our Disney holiday last year.  This was when we just arrived at the park, it was such a beautiful hot day! Roll on summer, I'm ready for you now lol!  This is the second layout for my Disney album, not sure how long it will take to complete this album but I intend to do a lot more scrapbooking this year so hopefully the layouts will keep coming!  This is the fourth layout with my Like for Ever Kit so it's going well this month!

It's my day off today and my plan is clear out my wardrobe.  I've been reading a book called the 'Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up' which is all about decluttering and only keeping hold of things that bring you joy! I'm hoping that this will help me chuck lots out lol!

I hope you have a wonderful day whatever your plans!

Thanks for stopping by.

Hi all and happy Wednesday to you!  This is another layout with this month's Like for Ever kit. I wanted to get a photo of Grace in my scrapbook for January so I just snapped one of her in her cozy dressing gown.   We have not been out that much in January to take any photos, I can't wait till the weather gets better, roll on spring! 

I would like to enter my layout into this week's challenge over at Shimelle's blog where the theme for this week is 'Scrapbook with Hearts'.

Just Us Layout .....................................

Hi all and happy Wednesday to you.  I'm determined to get some more scrapbooking done this year. This photo was taken at the Fairy Fair that we went to last year and we had such a lovely day. I really love this photo of me and Grace and as I'm normally the otherside of the camera I don't get that many of us together.  Really must try and get in more photos this year! 

Everything on my page is from this's month Like for Ever kit which I subscribe to.  I'm determined to kill this kit so watch out for more layouts soon!  My photo looks all the wonk!  I tried so hard to get a good photo and it's been so dull I had to get it under my daylight lamp and this is the best that I could manage!  

I used a great sketch to create this layout from Stuck January 1st Challenge which I would like to enter my layout into.

Thanks for stopping by.

New Year Scrapbook Page .......

Hi all and happy Thursday to you!  I have my first scrapbook layout of 2016 to share with you today.  I finally got time to cut into my Like for Ever kit which I subscribe to monthly.  I need to get making more layouts before the next one comes out!  

The photo is of Grace and my niece Anya on New Year's day.  I thought this was a nice photo to start the year off.  I also had some gorgeous 2016 New Year ribbon from Crafty Ribbons that I wanted to get on a layout!

I really need to get some of my stash used up this year and sell stuff that I won't use!

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Crafting!

Birthday Selfies Layout

Hi all, I have a layout to share with you tonight that I made using my Like for Ever scrapbooking kit from last month as I finally found a little bit of time to cut into last month's kit!  The photos were a few silly pics of me and Grace messing about with my selfie stick on my Birthday.  Please don't think I'm sad for having a selfie stick but I have very short arms and selfies of me would scare people without the use of a selfie stick lol!  

I used a great sketch from Stuck Sketches November 1st. for my layout. 

I had a wonderful time shopping in York.  These are a few photos from my weekend:

This is the Shambles, my favourite street in York filled with little shops full of pretty things!

This is me and Mum with a friend we found lol!

And of course no shopping trip would be complete without a stop for coffee and cake! 

Thanks for stopping by.

A Birthday Layout .............

Hi all, I'm back tonight to share a layout of of Will and Grace on Will's birthday back in July. We had only just come back off holiday so I didn't have time to bake a cake so it was a brought one this year! 

This is  the 6th layout that I have made from Like for Ever scrapbooking kit.  I have used quite a lot of my kit now but I think I will have a go at making some cards and tags with the scraps! I've really enjoyed using this kit as I've made girly layouts and more masculine layouts it has been so versatile.  

Today was an exciting day as well as my new kit arrived! I can't wait to get creating with it!

Thanks for stopping by.
