Back again.

Well I am back at this again.......

I have only just got back into the shop as we have not had any power for the last few days, the local power people decided to dig up the road and lay new cables. That and the fact that I have decided to move the shop things are just hunky dory at the moment........

The shop move is one that I have been thinking about for a while now and the right place came up so I am off to a new bigger home. I will also have a class room upstairs as well as a lot more room for the shop. It was getting to the point of if I had anything new I was having to take off some thing else to put it on display.

I dont seem to of done any scrapping for a while so all I have to show you is my kit lo from the UK Scrappers birthday party, hope you like it.

Im Back.........

OK I am back, sorry it has taken so long since my last blog.

I have been wondering just why I haven't been on here! yes I have had a major problem with my keyboard and with the power and Internet going down but that should not of stopped me. Then the other day I was chatting to a friend about blogs and how I just haven't been here for so long and realised that I have not been on since I gave my cousin my blog address. How weired it that! I obviously don't mind total strangers reading what I have to say but clam up when it comes to me knowing that family are reading. (love you lots Maggs)

So what has happened since the last blog?

To start with I have been tagged by Sue of the Design Collective.
Here are the rules which you must abide by if you are tagged.

1.Link to your tagger and post these rules.

2. Share 7 facts about yourself: some random, some weird.

3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them).

4. Let them know they've been tagged by leaving a comment at their blogs

OK, so here goes:

1. I am totally addicted to tuna mayonnaise (I have it every day)

2. I live in a country that does not exist as for as the rest of the world is concerned.

3. I am married to the best man in the world my sole mate Hal.

4. I run a successful craft business in a country that doesn't do crafts as we know them.

5. I am always putting myself down.

6. I am a scrap stalker, I stalk a few different blogs each day.

7. I am a very loyal friend.

Now to tag others, I think I will tag,

Sunday my team mate from UK Scrappers.

Sharon who is in my CJ group.

Jennie who is also in the same CJ group and also has the same template for her blog.

Kirsty because she makes me laugh each day.

Emily I met her early in the year and she had a amazing effect on me.

I cannot think of anyone else at the moment so these will have to do.

New Team

A few weeks ago I joined a new team on UKScrappers Its great fun even if I have not been able to give it my full attention with all the things that have been going on at home. It gives me another outlet for my scrapbooking, we get weekly challenges set by each team and also by ourselves. I set this weeks planning to use Bazzil Bling and a overlay! as you can see from the end result things did not go as planned. I just love this photo it just makes me smile every time I look at it. It was taken early in the summer at a friends before it got to hot to be in the sun for long. If you look close you can see the pink glitter card that I used as a mat for the main photo. I think my man is macho enough to take it.!!

Wedding Book

The last few weeks I have been doing a wedding book for a friend to give to her brother as a gift after the wedding. I first told her that I would not do it but she has been so good to me the last few weeks with things that have been going on at home and she has been helping another friend out that I changed my mind and said I would do it for her.
I have never done a book like this before, I have always known the person involved so I had something to go on but this time there was nothing. I managed to get there favorite song so I have used that along with blank pages for her to put the photos and get the guests to sign before she gives it to them.

All I can do now is hope they like it.

I have put a few photos here but I have added a slide on the side of this blog with all the photos in.

If you have a look I hope you like it.

Bad Blogger!!!

I don't know how I have managed to not blog for over two weeks!!

There hasn't been a lot going on at the moment with it still being so hot, but I have managed to do a few more pages for the All my own work class. The Pet Peeves one I used file folders to hid my lists as I am going to have the album on show at work when I have finished and do not want some of my customers to know just what I think of them.

The next prompt was Rewards and Pleasures and I got to play with some lovely new stock on this one. I am trying to do each layout in a slightly different style to give people ideas as to what they can do themselves.

I will have to get a move on and get the rest done as the last prompt was today and I still have about 3 to do.
