Hello, its been over 2 years since I scrapped and thanks to dear friend Cathy Cafun I have after her visit to my house found some of the Mojo again. This layout is for the scrap the boys January competition, had heaps of fun doing it.
My boy is now almost 8, that is still very hard to believe, and we have moved house and my old boy Maxi (dog) is still going strong and was 20 in November just gone, I am looking forward to blogging again and getting the inspiration from you all and of course seeing what you have been up to.
My struggles with Depression in the last 18 months have led to me take time off from working and I look forward to sticking more paper to pages to get me back into doing some creative memory keeping again.
It's been a while so if you leave a comment I will go to your blog from there. Thank you Cathy for today. Melx
