i'm a mummy and a wife and a scrapbooker. i have three mini monsters, lots of pretty patterned papers and i probably need to get out more. i believe that all you need is love, bacon and coffee. I don't really know how to use blogger yet, but bare with me, i'm hoping to create a place where I can showcase my scrapbooking and crafts and some of the inspiration that led me to the creations. Please pop by with any hints, tips or advice and don't forget to say hi. xxx

New flower style !!
I love my Martha Stewart punches but this lace heart has to be my fave, absolutely love the edge it gives to my new style flower embellishments, I now just need to make hundreds more of them and put them everywhere :-) xx

answers please. xx
Which songs, smells and food instantly take you back to childhood, as a nostalgic person my self, I am loving the "list it" prompts, the whole class is transporting me back in time. I was a child of the eighties, still am really. When were you born? and what takes you back? xx
A new page
This big picture class prompt was scents that take you back to childhood, I even made it smelly by spritzing the perfume on the layout.

Big idea festival love !
The big idea festival from big picture classes is becoming huge in my house. My epileptic husband has huge memory issues, but he has been inspired to record his own lists and my children are begging for me to print out the pdf's for them too so they can create their own current lists, I can't thank the bpc class guys enough for the impact :-) huge smiley face here xxxx
First completed "list it" page !
For those of you visiting from bpc, this is the first list it page I've done, Stacey's advertising one. Wanted to keep it simple but use blocks of eighties colour kinda like a rubix cube ! Would live your feedback xxxx

So, I have just opened my email with day 1 of the big idea festival enclosed and watched as Stacy Julian took me completely back to think about things from my childhood.
Today we are thinking about three "list its", and its soooooooooo inspiring, the first being "memories of shopping for school clothes", the second being list "scents from your childhood" and "advertising slogans from childhood".
Just think about those for a second, I have pages of notes already, and a big fat smiley face as im transported back thirty years to the eighties.
will be sharing the journal that I create along side the class.
Cant wait to get started.xxxxx
