Morning everyone, hope all is well at your places, it's crazy weather here at present, overcast, sunny, showering, sunny again, you know just enough to send you batty when you have washing to do and 2 poodles and a 3 yr old who love to be outside for a short while and then want to come back and lay on the lounge......
The layout "Sweetness it's in your eyes" is one I did for Noel Mignon challenge site this week, (no patterned paper) it was heaps of fun, her challenges I enjoy doing and well using the gorgeous kit with all the DeLovely goodies in it (sorry they are pink Nate) I love. If you are curious to see her August kit, have a look here, I cannot wait to get this one.
I just love the Heidi Swapp black Glimmermist and once again I used my trusty liquid paper around the edge of the layout - just to frame it. I made the circles mask using a 12 x 12 already cut out chipboard piece, not sure where I bought it from.
Okay, so today is our lady's day, boy the week comes around super quick, and then I am going to come home and do some more scrapping, gee I wish you could come over for a coffee and scrap with me, as it is now, I will probably have Toy Story 2 which I borrowed from the video store on for the 20th time whilst I am scrapping here. Thankfully tomorrow is Wednesday Scrap day with Aunty Jan and I look forward to it. I think it is so nice to do what you love whilst chatting and of course as we will be downstairs, Lightning McQueen will be playing also.
Oh, I almost forgot, dear friend's Cathy and Sam gave me beautiful awards for my blog, thank you ladies, both of these lady's are awesome scrappers, but you probably already know that but you can click on their names to go straight to their blogs, the conditions were I had to tell you 5 things about myself: You may already know these things, but here goes:
1. I will be 43 next March (feel so much younger though)
2. Drive a 2006 Rav4 4wd - white in colour
3. Next goal is to be on a Manufacturer's DT
4. Used to be an Accountant during the day and aerobics instructor at night
5. Love coffee (about 3 - 4 cups per day) and chocolate (especially together)
Thanks so much for the beautiful awards dear friends, but I would like to give all of you an award so if you want to share some things about yourself, I would enjoy reading.
Love to you all, have a fantastic day, somehow blogger seems to have changed again and can only upload 1 photo at a time, so will share another layout Thursday. Love Melxxx

Hi Mel, seen your comments all around so thought I would pay you a visit! Seems we have a lot in common. I am also just 43, love coffee & chocolate too! A tip for you - go to your settings - select an e mail address there {you'll see where if you go through all your settings} then put your photos into Picasa & e mail them to your blog. Do it this way & you can e mail dozens at a time in less than a minute ;-D
cool one you have here sweetie...and that liquid paper tech...coolness..will give it a try :)
