Well The Cookie Tray
challenge result
Iam not 100% happy with it,but possibly it is me Iam just to much of a darn perfectionist when it comes to crafting/scrapbooking things have to be right.
Oh well Iam wondering if I should do a layout and enter the Design Team for Kt Crafts,Iam just so un-decided
Iam not even sure if my work is good enough for this at all.
I need to finish a project and wanting to start some others off and
DS having cold is not helping ,half term and crabby etc. Mind you we have a new addition to the family a Goldfish my DS wanted today,total
change from the things on 4 wheels Iam so used to buying . Just hope he does not want any off the other things we saw like snake,stick insects,camelion and a few other urghh creepies.

My New Birthday Toy


Well Look what DH bought me for my birthday I have always been in to photography,and have a wonderful SLR,but just cannot be bothered with film much now and I hardly use my Darkroom stuff think that was due to having my son almost 5 years ago I decided the chemicals in colour & Black and White to be just to dangerous to have around with a little one let alone the fumes. I have a few digital camera`s but wanted something between digital & SLR and this seemed the perfect choice with a whopping 18 zoom ISo range from 100 up to 1600. I was told to have a look I did," He said I knew you would come back with it" well fancy him telling me to look this means go buy it to me in female language lol!!
I have had a little play and loving the shutter speed and going to print some sepia off of it,oh the kid is just going to love me saying "sausages" and "cheese"
whilst I play with my new toy

Do you know

That embosing powder floats in water!!!!! I found out through my little man taking a little experiment of his own,with my RED embossing powder in a cup of water!!!! Well I nearly threw it in the dishwasher but then thought woo this like washes at 65 degrees,not a good idea,I now have a lovely sink to scrub out it seems to be everywhere. Why do kids just love getting in your craft stuff!? why is it they always go for the embossing powder,glitter,glue or DST.
