FIRST SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT OF 2014

You may remember THIS post, where I showed you this photograph of Stuart that I had totally forgotten about:


At the time I had looked out some papers to use to make a scrapbook page...but didn't quite get around to it!

When I realised I actually had some 'me' time this afternoon, I decided to put the page together...I'm not sure it's exactly as I'd originally planned but I did enjoy making it....i'm hoping it may have jump-started my mojo!

This is the finished product:

sorry about the angle..one day I'll get the hang of this!


I'm also in the process of making some cards...some Happy Mail is going out this week!

I hope the weather where you are isn't causing any damage...there seems to be an awful lot of severe conditions around the globe.

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx
