Bathtime scrapbooking page

Here is tonight's scrap creation, only in 1974 could you put three kids in a bath together and it be okay!

The bubbles are icons from Cricut a child's year cartridge, also the child in the tub with rubba ducky. The tag and tag frame are from Mickey Mouse cartridge. The base paper from the warehouse (Bulk pack - the pattern kinda matched the wallpaper in the photo), striped paper and cardstock stampin up: Night of Navy, Soft Suede, Sahara sand.

Black water rafting scrapbook page

Here is another of yesterdays creations, seemed a great time to start scrapping as new years day! This was back in the 90's when my flatmate and best friend, Martyn and I went blackwater reafting atthe waitomo caves. At the time his brother owned the caves so we got an extra special trip, absailed sown a 30foot hole into the ground (very small from memory), checked out the glowworms, did some tubing after jumping off a cliff! saw horid cave wetters and even got an eel in my gumboot! We even had to climb up over a massive and very strong waterfall, I remeber the relief when I finally made it back out of the ground....

scrapbook page - mum 1943

This is a page I made last night of a cute photo of my mum back in 1943!

Bow maker

I know I should have bought this little gadget before christmas so I could have made bows for the presents but I had read some reviews and they were not good... It put me off but I ended up buyingit anyway. Yes it is really just a stapler but also designed to help hold your bows in place which is really the point of it, the only limit is you imagination! Here are some bows I have made while trying it out, It's a great way to use up your ribbon scraps!

Christmas scrapbooking page

After a busy time before, during and shortly after Christmas, I finally made time tomake a scrapbooking page. Itwas fun and I used my new cricut machine too.... Also followed a page map layout... rather simple but I'm sure I will get better the more I do!

cricut christmas cards

I was so chuffed when I came home today to find my Christmas Noel cricut cartridge had arrived...It's super and I love the window frame and made this with stamping and brayering also, and santa and the reindeer flying in the sky...

light up 3d cricut church

i have modified the 3d church U made using my cricut, I relaced the inside box - previously yellow card, for vellum. Also cut a hole in the roof to let the light come up. Under the church is a battery powered tealight candle, no flame, just a flickering light. I really looks super!

orgainsing my cricut creations.....storage

Since getting this cricut expression machine, I have being playing around with it so much. I have not yet made a scrapbook page but have many creations. I decided I needing some way of storing them so I know what I have already made and thought If I got some blutac I could put them up inside my craft cabinet. It worked a treat and now I can see things ready to add to a card or scrap page.....
