Was lost....

Where oh where did my mojo go... I'm glad it's back, I haven't really done much scrapbooking this year, with Miss Caitlyn being at the age where is rediculous to think that she will sit still for 4 hours at scrap group,I stopped going last christmas so my mojo got lost. Hubby has been on holidays for the last 2 weeks so being the loving, understanding husband that he is he had Caitlyn while I scrapped,this is what i came up with....

1. I don't really think I did this Kaiser overlay justice but being the first page i have scrapped in months I suppose it's ok!


2. I'm so happy with the way this next page turned out used a sketch from The colour rooms current challenge had fun doing it, papers are Kaiser- Miss Nelly Collection.


3. This next page is a scrap lift the original is by the very talented Wendy Bennett
again the papers are Kaiser- Miss Nelly Collection.



So great to have my computer back, from what was supposed to be a 3 day job turned out to be 12 days. So great to be looking at a big screen again and having full access.

Thankyou and the cupboard the dad built!

First and for most a Big Thank you to all the lovely ladies that left comments on my last post it just makes my day to read them....I wanted to thank every one individually but blogger is giving me a hard time it won't allow me to post comments on blogs where to comments are to be left at the bottom of the post but it will if it's a pop out screen or if it's the sort that you write the comment on the side if that makes sense. Can anyone help with this problem????? So thank you, thank you, thank you!!!


Secondly.....
My dad built me a new cupboard to go in my scrap space, my scrap space is a corner of our lounge room which is huge by the way. My space lacked suitable shelving so a phone call to our local builing supplier got me some cover sheets of melamine sheeting which is what they use on the out side of the pallet when transporting bulk lots from the producer to the store. so $30 later and some nagging on my part my dad got to work, last week dad finished it and delivered it.Here's a quick pic, mind you it has changed a bit since trying to fit things in the way that it will work for me.
So happy with it!!
