IM SO SORRY

ive been such a bad blogger and im so sorry.
since my last post lots have happened: we attended our 3rd twilight convention and had a fab time as usual, booked my tickets for 1 directions forthcoming tour, seen our annual disney on ice (which the girls and i adored), the girls had their first proper bonfire nite and maddies 2nd dance show.

lots of photos i shall try and put on here or a few at least.


craft wise im busy finishing my 1st and starting my 2nd twilight scrapbook based on annuals but which i am altering to record my visits to meet the cast. talking of the cast-some of them loved looking through what i had done so far and commented on it. im also starting a 1 direction altered annual with photos of the x factor tour and photos that i have with the lads.

as usual there is always lots i could be doing and MUST finish but my days are getting busier now its coming up to xmas and the girls have such busy social lives (busier than us)!!!!

i will try and post more often i PROMISE!!!

ive been thinking recently about what makes me "smile" after going to the art gallery and these are 2 of the things that make me smile...........betty and daisy

last friday, we managed to go out for breakfast 2gether which hasnt happened for goodness knows how long! betty enjoyed her toast, i had a bacon sarnie and darren had a full english. anyway, we later went for a walk around the art gallery again as i love their exhibition atm which is entitled "smile" and we discovered that maddies picture was still up in there. these were some of my fave parts of the show.

OMG OMG OMG-i have found my dream car and it has been mod podged too.....

here is a picture of what i have won and i have asked for the pink spotty pair.....

IM A WINNER-YIPPPPPPEEEEE-im forever completing competitions esp craft ones and never thought i would be lucky in an american comp. one of my fave websites is modpodge rocks and they were giving away a pair of westcott scissors (big in usa) and a holster in which to keep them in. this morning, i recieved an email saying that i had won a pair. cant wait to get them now.

im a happy bunny now :)

Art Journal - mixed media

im really loving all this mixed media technique at the moment and have had a go at my own, but needed some more tips so came across this fabulous artist on you tube-i have since written down some tips and cant wait t have a go myself-i think i may need another blank book though first.
