I couldn't wait to get back to the house, so that I could get it unwrapped. I knew from the 'sender' address that it was from the lovely Queen of Happy Mail herself, RUTH, but had no idea what to expect.
After
THANKS RUTH!
this book and the ubiquitous pretty postcard, which Ruth seems to have an endless supply of!
I hoped to get started reading the book last night- it's one I've been considering ordering for my Kindle, so was really keen to get into it- but that didn't quite happen!...hopefully tonight!
I also managed to get another LO for my niece's album completed, using this sketch
from PAGE DRAFTS.
You'll notice I'm using the glittery nail polish ploy again...and I'm leaving most of the journalling spots blank, so that Jennifer can add her own journalling.
Thanks for dropping by..and thanks again Ruth for the Happy Mail!
Take care of you
Alison xx

What a good idea to leave the journaling blank. That way it will be her thoughts about the photos which will be quite different to your I'm sure!
