Scrap Tuesday



On a wednesday. Its been a very long time since our last one due to everyone getting sick, and actually our third member is still out for the count ( blogless Cindy) , But I actually got stuff done today , some I cant show due to it being secret swap business. But I can show 2 lil bits I worked on.



First a really quick lay out Ive had in my head for a bit. I knew I wanted to keep it quiet simple and let the joke be the star of the page. This is Very very Sweet Middle. He has hit the age of becoming joke central.


This sweet lil wreath, I was hoping would fit in one of my mini boxes, but is slightly too big, so when I hit spotty tomorrow ( am I the only one that goes into shops, and can never quiet remember to get everything on my my list?!?) will see if I can get a slightly bigger one. Its a tiny cane ring, a lot of tiny cut out leaves, a couple of red sequins I had lying around, glue and a lot of fiddling!. 

Ps what is everyone reading, Im about to finish Time travelers wife and then I will be starving for a new novel. Will be hitting the library tomorrow ( haven't gone for nearly 2 weeks, Im suffering withdrawals here!) what should I look out for?

PPS I updated this post to give a quick walk through of what I did. Also, Daph said when she saw it, she didn't realize how small it was, it fits roughly the size of my palm.

These are a few of my favourite things

When the dog bites, when the bee stings... Ill be singing that all day now. 

This morning when I checked my emails there was one from the library.  Some of my books that I had on reserve were in (It was the perfect remedy for the blueness of missing my scrap tuesday with my girl friends, Daphne, and blogless cindy) .

I am a library-a-holic, I would live there if I had the chance. My reserve list is ALWAYS full, and the library staff just have to see my face and they go reaching under the counter for my new books. I go a couple of times a week. Have I mentioned I love it so?

  The photo is just some of the few I have on loan at the moment, its not unusual between myself and the boys to have the full 30 something you are allowed to borrow at once.
