Unfortunately Christmas 2011 has not been as much fun as it could due to both my girls being poorly with ear infections and tonsillitus and obviously any craft work has had to take a back seat. The photos I am uploading today are from my last DLO. Looking at the pictures now, I wish I had changed a few things but, on the whole, I am happy with it.

Its been a hectic few weeks since I last posted on here but thought I would upload a few photos of the last DLO I completed for the current CJ I am involved in, seeing as I am now working on my next layout!!

This CJ was titled: Hidden Journalling.
 I loved doing this DLO because I got to add some poems, of course hidden away in the envelopes! Just hope the owner likes them as much as me!!

Didnt get to do much crafting in the half-term week, so am now making up for it now!!
I've practically finished my DLO for the CJ and am cracking on with my Christmas Recipe Swap (both of which are for UK Scrappers)

Will post pictures very soon when completed!!

The last few days have been spent looking after my youngest daughter who has had an allergic reaction to something she has eaten so not much crafting has taken place obviously!
I have however, managed to finish the tag for the CJ that I am currently involved in (I nearly forgot about the tag!!)
The dlo has turned out better than I expected and I am very happy with it. The pictures dont really do it justice.

Anyway, thats it for now

The CJ is called "Sing me a Rhyme" and is a collection of favourite nursery rhymes (Will be a keepsake for the owners baby boy). I chose Twinkle, Twinkle and created a window, and when opened shows square window pane with one little star in the corner.

Well today proved alot more fruitful than yesterday, and I managed to finish the dlo for the circle journal. No piccys as yet but I will post some before I send it on. I am really happy with it and am loving my new found hobby!!

Have a DLO to do for the Circle Journal I am involved in on Uk Scrappers. Was hoping to get a chance to get stuck into it today but no such luck...so I am hoping thar I may get a chance to make a start when I get home from work tomorrow, failng that Friday.

My days are just flying passed at the moment... Cant believe Christmas is just around the corner!!! Scary!!

My first Mini Book Swap!

Well this was my very first Mini Book Swap hosted on the UK Scrappers Website and , if i'm honest, for a first attempt and for someone who is new to the arts and crafts world, is not a bad effort!!
