My maze book






Maze book that I made and gave to my mum, of their day out at Pixies Holt, Dartmeet, Dartmoor.I have used Junkitz Essentials - earth tones - for this and shades of green Bazzill cardstock. Other bits and bobs I have used are mixed shades of primas/angel kisses and ribbons from Ben Madigan Crafts. I thoroughly enjoyed making this and my mum (and family) loved it :)

Tfl :wub: xxxx

Here's another layout from my gallery on UKScrappers

I chose this photo of my mum from loads of my wedding shots.You really can't see this very clearly (I must subscribe to that 'scan'n'stitch' programme :rolleyes: ) but my mum is just so naturally beatuiful :wub:
I have used BG papers Phoebe which I have torn a piece and inked, the other I have cut out the two main flowers and replaced them onto the sheet using foam pads to give them a more 3-D effect. I have painted the inside of the petals with a luscious green shimmer paint.I have used gorgeous green/turqouise ribbon that i bought in a set from Ben Madigan Crafts and have twisted it to show both sides of the ribbon, and fastened with dst and brads. I have also used Prima flowers in shades of green with tiny buttons in the centre.For the title I have used papermania foam stamps and ink in 'neptune' (the words 'my' and 'beautiful') and I have also used decorated chipboard shapes also from the new Papermania range.
I must say that this does look better irl.I loved creating this, as my mum means the world to me and I think she looks so beautiful in this pic.
Love you mum if you ever get to see this :)Tfl :wub:

AND...last but not least one of my fave layouts I've done.
It's of my son, Philip, on Dartmoor. Once again thanks for looking *hugs*

After a very busy schedule I'm back. Nothing exciting to report on just 'family' stuff.

My friend Jane has just started to blog and I'm going to add her blog here on my list too. I love her artwork/scrapping :D

I hope you like me new-look blog template :D

I've been looking everywhere for help on how to do templates but for now this will do. I kind of think it's very nice indeed ;)

Bye for now
Love and hugs,
