Snap im trying to do a scrapbook for my new grandson (not so new now 6 months old) but im not getting anywhere with it. I got a lovely baby boy scrapbook but thats as far as i have got with it

I bought a plain baby blue scrapbook about 5 months ago but haven't done anything with it yet Good job I like a challenge

Mel, the papers are a set I picked up in TK Maxx ages ago, they aren't overly babyish but I liked them

Rainmac/ Giggle - I found it quite hard doing Elliot's mini book because being for a boy I found I was quite limited when picking embellishments - I didn't want to go too OTT on flowers etc.

Glittermum

Melissa - I have no idea yet what I'll be making! They may be sock related (or not!)

Rainamc - I can't believe there is still no baby news, that baby is obviously far too comfy!

snippedWhen did/does the flower challenge end? I have done one but i took the pic on my hubbys camera and it didn't have a memory stick in it so it is on the internal memory and i haven't a clue where his lead would be.

He isn't back untill midnight tonight so hopefully i will get some cards done.

Looked at some new houses yesterday. Why is it you fall in love with a house but the location is rubbish! not fair. If we could move the house to where we are now we would snap it up.

Louby the challenge finishes midnight on the 22nd, so you have plenty of time to enter.

Good luck with the house hunting x

Georgie Congrats on your sales :T:T

Congratulations ***

Louby So glad your DS is getting back to his normal self

RainmacGlad your DS is feeling better too

Wifey Do you want to borrow my specs ala Clark Kent :rotfl:

Dragonllew Instead of note to self don't buy anymore papers I'd change it to "mmmm excuse to buy new shoes..." :rotfl: Oooh Wifey we think so alike. Just think how many papers you could get into a boot box

Marg Glad to hear your situation with your MIL is improving - it must be a weight off your mind

Hello Welshkaz

Madfrog I'm thinking you'll need to protect her identity -

Lei :T:T to your OH :T:T

Managed to get all my stuff sorted last night so planning to get blogging again. On the weightloss front I bought myself this yesterday. I filled in all my stats yesterday and I start tonight :eek: wish me luck

Glittermum - I was thinking that a card was probably a bit dull for the swap - I wasn't sure what else I could make other than a notebook or a mini book - I didn't want to disappoint anyone!

PepPop - good luck with the weight loss - I'll probably be joining you soon after the baby's born!

Lizalloareds - fab cards on your blog - love the cardstock that you've used on your anniversary card, and the greeting on the second card is lovely - is it a stamp????

Will pop the card in the post to you later in the week Is her name Jo or have I made that up?

Sounds like you have some lovely stash winging it's way to you, I've been good and not ordered any of the new Magnolia stamps or the new BG pad but did spend £40 on boxes to sort my existing stash. The cost of storage is what has put me off getting sorted previously because I just thought about the stash I could buy with that £ and did that instead

Just a quickie, how do you distress edges? Do you need any particular tools?

Hugs and congratulations to anyone who needs them :j
