Bringing Back Memories

2012-01-24T00:48:00.000-08:00

It's raining. I hate rain. My journey to work was wet and dark. Did I mention that I hate rain?

Whilst driving to work this morning I couldn't help but think back to those hazy summer days when the afternoon was just turning into evening. My daughters playing in the back garden dressed in their swimming costumes with their sun hats on, faces sunkissed. The smell of freshly cut grass and my hands dirty from de-weeding the bedding and potting new, colourful plants after spending the morning at the garden centre. A bottle of cold white wine sat on the patio table with two wine glasses half full, hubby and I sat smiling and laughing as we watch our daughters play, bringing back memories of our childhoods...

This weeks FREE download for Creativity Club members is called Hazy Days and it's available as a blue collection of printables and also in green. Just because it's raining outside and just because it's freezing, doesn't mean that our crafting needs to feel cold...

Fancy TV?

2012-01-20T08:16:00.000-08:00

I'm More Vintage...

2012-01-18T02:25:00.000-08:00

Whilst spending time Monday night scrapbooking photographs of my daughters I started thinking about what kind of papers are my favourite. I was using papers from years ago as I am keen to spend 2012 using up old product in order not to waste so much beautiful stash and I found myself using a lot of distressed papers in yellow and blue.

I have to admit to feeling attracted to more vintage and distressed styles in craft at the moment.

I would love to know what you love. Please take a few minutes to share with me.

Happy New Year

2012-01-04T03:46:00.000-08:00

So, have you stuck with your New Years resolution? I have! I know we are only on day 4 of 2012 but i'm impressed that I have had the willpower to start dieting in the first week of January, and before my daughters 3rd birthday too. How am I going to resist cake at the weekend? I threw out ALL the naughty food on the 1st and hit the supermarket filling my large trolley with fruit and...fruit! My husband and two daughters looked sad trailing behind me whilst I skipped around the supermarket aisles singing "I'm going to be thin before you know it!"

I also signed up to a blogging challenge. I pledged to blog every day in January on my other blog. I have stuck to this promise so far too...not easy with two demanding little girls to occupy!

So what is your New Years resolution for 2012?

Are you all washed out from Christmas card making? I have designed some sketch layouts for you over in the Creativity Club downloads section. Simply download, print off and copy the layout for your card making or scrapbooking! 1,2,3... www.docrafts.com/creativityclub
