Me on Monday

It was an 'oh my goodness how nice to see you after so long' catching up with blog/scrap friends,eldest moving his things back in whilst they look for a house AND after having a word with myself catching up on friendship squares kind of weekend for me..
Imagine my surprise upon turning up at a bi monthly crop to find my seat and who should be sitting right there next to me but 'Scrappy Sandie'  Lots of chat ensued and the day flew by.
Of course we had to have a selfie - I really hope Sandie enjoyed her day back scrapping,it was so nice to catch up.
So the other thing I did was to make some more friendship squares - apologies ladies but I really really am back to it now and there will be three more posted tomorrow

I'm joining in with Sian's me on Monday blog feature today - so I'm waving hello to her and all the others playing along too.

December in January

Happy New Year bloggy people. I find with there being so many ways of keeping up with people nowadays - Instagram-Facebook- Twitter. I don't update my blog as much as I would like so here I am to put that right.

I've got quite a few Christmas photos I want to scrap now so the other evening I set to and found my Graphic 45 stash
This layout is using the Time to Flourish collection - we had some great Christmas Crops in December this one being Ann's where we had a 'Christmas Photo Booth '

For the background I used paper from the 'Twas the night before Christmas' collection.
Some good old fussy cutting of a couple of Poinsettias and some sparkly sequins finished it off.
Here's another page I posted in the Facebook group in case you don't have Facebook that I made using Webster's Strawberry Fields (are you humming it?) They were so apt as my youngest son has just gone travelling for 6 months so the journaling cards were perfect
I used a star stencil with some distress ink to add a bit of interest - I just can't leave that white space! and die cut some stars too.
I hope you are all looking forward to a nice bloggy 2015 !
