Here is my take on the scrapology sketch posted by SJ at the beginning of March.  Ive only just found the sketch after printing and i'm not sure whether i'm a bit late to enter, will post anyway and see how I get on  xx

I found this photo of my youngest daughter Olivia when I was looking through some old photo albums. She was around a year old and I love the cheeky, two teeth grin xx

CCW January Scrap Map

Another great sketch from the Creative Craft World..  Here is the sketch.....




Here is my take on the sketch.  This is my eldest daughter taken on holiday last year, she thought she looked so good wearing her dads sunglasses x
My aim for the beginning of this year is to try and use up some of my old papers which are just sitting around not doing much.  These papers are from the Love Elsie collection, I love the colours and they suit my little girl perfectly.

Hope you like it xx

Felt flowers

I was looking at some of the layouts on the Bobunny blog and came across these gorgeous felt flowers their designer had used on her layout http://bobunny.blogspot.com/2012/01/more-than-4.html (take a look).  I dug out my felt and had a go at making my own.

1.  Fold a piece of felt 10cm  in length, 3cm in width in half and snip across the fold.






2.  Fold one end in and hold in place with a stitch

 3.  Keep rolling the the felt along and securing in place with little stitches.








4.  Once rolled up you should end up with something like this, secure into place with a few more stitches.  Now make a layout to put them on EASY!
