Grandad



Just quickie so I can spend more time on the housework tonight (wink, wink, lol)!!! Here's the layout from tonight's great scrapbook class at the Craft Den. I had a really good time tonight, everyone was on really good form!

I love this photo of my daughter and my Dad. They look quite alike and she is really attached to him, probably because, just like her Daddy, he plays the fool and rolls on the floor with her, something mummies and Grandmas don't do so much! Well Daddies and Grandads do it so well don't they?!

We used the lovely Daisy Bucket Posh Posies papers tonight.I used them last week on a layout(see 14th June as Lynne let me take some away and have a go!) They are really lovely vibrant colours. Lynne prepared some lovely felt die cut flowers and velvet ribbon, and I used the flowers and stalks technique we did in a previous class. It's a really lovely idea. The bling is also from Craft Den, I was a bit more economical this time and just cut off a couple of swirls!

Felt alphas, paper flowers and cardstock from stash.

There are some lovely 7Gypsies papers, metal embellies, stickers and really unusual chipboard shapes and envelope books just come in at the Craft Den. I bought one of the envelope books, and some of the lovely K & Co Madeline papers as they have a really great vintage look and have butterflies on them, one of my favourites. If it goes well I may show it as a work in progress! My big projects always take months to finish because I've always seen something else to start!!
