The Other One!!

I wanted to document some feelings about my time at uni so I decided to scrap these photos of my friends and me on our last day....

I did lots of stamping and splattering and really enjoyed making this layout.

I Do Still Scrap....Honest!!

Miraculously, don't ask me how, I have managed over the last few weeks to scrap two layouts!! I won't share them both now.....I'll use them as an excuse to blog twice!!

Here is the first...

Photo's of me and Sarah on our day out in the Forest of Dean.  I used my funky new washi tapes that I treated myself to with some Paypal funds I never realised I had!!

Back soon with the other one xxx

Month in Numbers: January

Yes I know I'm late and I know I've been MIA!! Life is hectic here, I am just 17 days away from the end of my placement and the end of my course and finally being a proper real life teacher!! 

So anyway, I have been keeping a note of my month in numbers and documenting it, even if I haven't got round to blogging it!

In January I did 1 day at uni, my first of 2012 and last one ever! I also passed 1 essay, applied for 2 jobs and did 8 days in my new school.
Me and my 5 friends on our last day.

Before I went back to uni I went to see an exhibition, Bruce Munro's 'Field of Light' which featured 5000 colour changing lights and was really magical.


I managed to find lots of time for baking and crochet, I tried 4 new recipes and added 25 rows to the ripple blanket for my best friends baby.  I attended 2 wedding fairs with my other best friend.

At the end of January I spent 1 day out for my best friend's Mum's 60th birthday, we celebrated with a lovely walk in the Forest of Dean which was enjoyed by 1 very happy dog...


followed by a round or 2, and 3 games of pool and a lovely meal with 4 happy diners.

And that was January! Back soon with Feb! xxx

Before Christmas I used up loads of wool scraps by crocheting little tiny hearts.  I used them to make bunting to hang on our fireplace and as little decorations on all my Christmas gift wrapping. After Christmas I still had loads left so I decided to use them up on some cards.  I then remembered I had a whole load of brooch pins lying around so I thought I'd turn the little hearts into little brooches making the cards into gifts!  Here they are.....

Now I need to make sure I don't give them to anyone who reads my blog!! xxxx

Specsy

Wow, it feels like ages since I just found time/inspiration to sit down a do a layout just because.  Not for doc 2011 or for the wedding album, just because!  I loved all these photos of me and my friends at a wedding and at the moment am loving multi photo layouts so I decided to trim them down and use them all!


Hope you like it! xx

Beware....This is VERY Cute!!!!

I just had to share a little crochet project that I've just finished.  It's for my best friend's baby, or maybe I should say it's for my best friend to dress her baby in and take photos to embarrass him when he's 18!!!
Cute huh???

Once again thanks to Pinterest for the inspiration!
