This is a LO with me in it! I used Basic grey sultry papers, BG rub-ons, scalloped note paper (cant remember the make), Prima flowers and ribbon.

Shelby bought a Hannah Montanna Wig with her birthday money and had a great time posing for these photos! The paper is sandy lion kindly donated by my friend Paige! Quite a simple Lo, just black card and some PM alphas. (Sept 08)

Costco papers, Queen & Co felt fusion, American Thickers, Fancypants chipboard shapes, Ribbons, Rub-ons, Brads, Foof-a-la buttons. This Lo is of my DH and my friends dog Boots! The journalling is hidden behind the picture. (11th Sept 08)

I bought this Brazzil scalloped edge card stock but I wasnt sure what to do with it.I thought it would best with bright colours so I have used it with orange and green and photos of Calebs carrots that he grew himself. The title was cut with the X Cut express machine and I hand cut the carrot! I Did this LO at the Wight Crafr Crop Circle. (sept 08)

This Lo is of my two kids and my nephew. I used my costco papers (gotta get through them!) and coredinations card stock, prima flowers and brads, maya rd felt flowers all with stitching on and a button sewn on to the centre one, basic grey rub-ons, an acetate journalling tag from Hambly and a grommet from We R memory keepers. (18th sept 08)

This is a LO of Calebs BIG Marrow! I used Basic Grey papers and rub-ons,see d's alphabet, prima flowers and hand punched flowers and buttons. I found some old green braid in my sewing box and added that and I used a hole punch to punch 3 different sizes of hole and then I did some stitching through the holes and on the corners of the photo. I got Caleb to write all about his marrow on the 7gypsies journalling card which i tucked behind the photo. (2nd Oct 08)
