More than one fold

I enjoyed having a go at Craft Dens Anything Goes Blog last time so I thought I'd have another go for more than one fold challenge! I have used Bo Bunny's Burnt Orange Dot as the background and Bo Bunnys Psycadelic Flower girl paper which I have cut and folded in the bottome left and top right corner. I really love this paper! I then coloured in some letters with a brown copic pen (thanks Sue for this idea!) I used some ribbon and flowers from stash and used turquoise stickles around the border. Hope you like it.

First Entry on Challenge Blog!!

D is for Dancing and Dreaming!! I thought I would have a go at Craft Dens Challenge Blog Anything Goes as I have been wanting to for ages but sometimes life throws up challenges of its own! However I have managed to have a little go this time! To create my LO i used basic yellow cardstock as my background and Bo Bunny Splendor Swirl inked with Tim Holtz Tea Dye. I used Primas "Very Cherry" to frame the photos and cut out the gorgeous roses to scatter across the page. I stickled these with Xmas Red. Sizzixs Hunky dory lettering for the title and gems from stash. I would like to enter this into Anything Goes Challenge the letter'D'. - How very exciting!!

Couple of layouts

Good evening just quickly posting a few layouts before I go to bed zzzzz The first one is from Thursdays scrapbook class using the Bo Bunny blast off range and the second layout is magnolia vintage butterfly paper.

A couple of SB layouts to share...

I have unfortunately missed the last 2 weeks of my lovely scrapbook class but have stayed up late a few nights to do some layouts - am paying the price now by being even more tired than usual! Cant wait to get back to class on Thursday evening.

The firework layout is basic bazzil blackbird and i used BoBunnys Blast Off range 'starburst' as I thought it looked a bit like fireworks. I then used lots of different colour stickles to try to make them look even more like fireworks! Alphabets from stash and papers from craft den. For the princess LO I used magnolias 'once upon a time' paper and bling and ribbon from stash. I have a little girl who loves dressing up more than life itself and is steadily going through my necklaces, scarfs, bracelets and lip gloss!

Hope you have enjoyed the long weekend and I hope you can leave a comment as I love reading them but not holding out much hope as blogger is not playing ball recently.

Scrapbook Classes

Just thought I'd share my layouts from the last two weeks classes at craft Den.

Love bank holidays!!

As I couldnt make my weekly scrapbook class this week I was getting crafting withdrawals so my lovely hubby kept the kids busy and gave me some time to do a couple of layouts Hurrah!!

Carefree summer days is Bo Bunnys persuasion stripe paper with flowers from stash and my trademark stickles! Ive used tim holtz upon a time die cut for the title which is the reverse side of the paper.

My first boys page!! I so enjoyed creating this layout let me tell you! I used echo park papers little boy range and sizzix hunky dory die cut for the lettering. My hubby bought me a second hand bigshot for easter and I have been having so much fun with it - anyone know of any good alphabet fonts please let me know!

Have a fab day tomorrow and hope the Easter Bunny brings you something yummy!!!

Spot of Scrapbooking

Had a lovely time on Thursday evening at the Craft Den and luck would have it we were doing the exact colours to compliment the professional photo we had taken of Caitlin and Jake for Mothers Day! Also had a few minutes this weekend to do a layout literally was quite rushed but enjoyed it all the same! Hope you have all had a lovely weekend. Xx

Scrapbook Class

When Lynne said last week that we would be doing a wedding lo this week i knew I had the most perfect photo.... Caitlin aka pricess aurora & her grandad aka prince charmimg play a game every week where they get married and then have a wedding dance. To do this they have to wear their wedding hats. Caitlins is grandmas sun hat and grandads is the washing up bowl! These little moments are so priceless and that is why I love scrapbooking so much because you get to capture that moment in time and present in the most beautiful way....

Fabby Dabby Scrapping!!

Really enjoyed getting back to scrapbook classes at Craft Den last night - was a bit anxious as first time ive left jake at night but when i got home after a really enjoyable class they were both fast asleep in bed! Looking forward to next week now! We made a really lovely page (as usual) learning a few tips about matting photos to make them stand out. Here is my page along with some updated pics of Jake who is already 5 months old!

Beautiful Cards...

Just wanted to say hi and hope everyones well. Also a huge thankyou to Sandra and Kathryn for these beautiful cards! Jake is doing well and growing by the hour! Hope you are all nearly ready for christmas and look forward to seeing you in the New Year.

I have a beautiful baby boy!!!

Introducing baby Jake! Born yesterday at 9.05 (natural birth) weighing 6Ib 70z. We are all tired but over the moon!

Caitlins Butterfly Birthday Cake.

Well never made a butterfly cake before but had a go as that it was Caitlin wanted! Glad I got to make it before baby arrived :0)

My little Girl turns 3!

Caitlin was 3 yesterday! Luckily baby didnt choose that day to arrive and is still quite happy doing gymnastics in my tummy! 38 weeks today so cant be that much longer!

Caitlin had a lovely birthday. she chose to go to the cinema and we had a birthday tea at grandma and grandads and grandma made her famous chocolate cake. I am attempting a butterfly cake on friday for her little party at pizza hut on Saturday all being well!

Will post scrapbook LOs as soon as i am able to do them!!!

Scrapbooking Class

I enjoyed doing a bit of crafting last night and the lovely company at craft den, but at 35 wks pregnant found it all a bit tiring so think it will be my last one untill after the baby is born - but will be checking the blog to see all the lovely crafting you guys are doing. Will keep you updated with baby news. Getting very excited now - so is Caitlin!

See you all soon.

Big hugs Tash xxx

posted pic of last nights LO and Caitlin giving her baby brother or sister a little kiss...

Perfect weather for crafting.....

Well another gorgeous day in sheffield folks! I asked Caitlin what she wanted to do today and to my delight she said "crafting"! She looked in her craft book and picked out a decorated box to do, so off we went to home bargains and got a princess jewellery box to decorate. So while she was happily doing that and making a bracelet I made a scrapbook page of her favourite dress! We did another gorgeous layout last night at Craft Den & surprisingly Caitlin is wearing that 'dress' in the photo!!! Have a great weekend everyone. Lots of love xxx

Scrapbooking

Had a lovely time at Craft Den creating another gorgeous LO designed by Lynne. I dont know how she keeps on coming up with such lovely ideas week after week but she does! While I was there i bought some yummy papers and Friday evening made a LO of my mum and Caitlin.

Scrapbook Class LOs

Had a really good time last night creating this fab layout - See Lynnes blog for name of papers. Really Effective the way Lynne taught us to bend over the page another idea for my collection! The 'fun' page is from a few weeks ago. Have a great weekend everyone and happy scrapping! xxx

Beautiful Bo Bunny Papers

Had a lovely evening again last night creating a page with Bo Bunny papers Lynne had put together. Think I may have added one too many flowers but well I still like the page. I wish I had others to blog of my own but I'm just really tired in the evening after looking after a 2 and half year old all day! When I think I will just do some crafting I get distracted by little kicks in my tummy and just want to lie down and enjoy the moment-then promptly fall asleep! Thank goodness for craft Den or my scrapbook would be a bit sparse!

Pink Power!

I am sure that someone turned all the clocks forward last night as the time flew at craft den! Had a lovely time creating a pink layout that Lynne had made. Here it is....
