New LO

Just the latest LO for this weeks UKS weekly challenge.

Sophies first LO and minibook

At the ripe old age of four and a half my little girl has completed her first minibook. She used a kit her grandma got her from M&S and has been plodding away at it for about a week I guess. Not bad for a first attempt.
She has her own little drawer where I put all my old unwanted stash adn I bought her the little Tesco gardening bag which makes a great mini tote!

My little man has even been using the mini punches to punch out butterflies, hearts and stars!

Minibook Finished!

Have been working on this minibook for my dads first wedding anniversary to Sharon for about 3 weeks now. Phew, what a marathon.

Rain at Last

My garden has been crying out for some rain and thankfully at last it arrived...with thunder too. I love the sound of rain and it was fab to have to get up in the night to little lady and then to lay there listening to the drips and drops. Well, on national scrapbook day I managed to steal a few hours to myself to do another LO. This one took inspiration from Rachel at Sarahs Cards using the May kit again...fancy pants. I had wanted to do one of these distressed pizza box LO's for ages and finally plucked up the courage. The little butterflies are cut using Martha Stewart pop up butterfly punch (these are the cut out bits), and when I used a small blob of glue in the middle to stick them down the wings naturally curled up, which was perfect. Not sure if I would use the pizza box thing again but it was fun to try thank you for the idea Rachel.

Created this LO using Sarahs Cards May kit Fancy Pants. I just love this kit..it's one of those where you don't want to cut the paper to use one side..becasue the other is so beautiful as well and you want to use that too. I have a couple more LO's to do with this kit I think...can't wait.
