Morning all!!

Its that Fab Friday time of the week over on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog where the Tiddly Inkers strut their super stuff!!!! and oh my, today's a fabulous one!!! 

I decided to go with a mini album for my make. The Scrap It challenge really inspired me to get a few of these little albums made.I love them for just popping a few of my fav instagram piccies in from the week (...sigh..yes week!! I take a lot of instagram piccies!!!!!).

 I adhered down the first page so that all the pages in my album would kinda pop out once the front of the album is opened. All the little tags for page decoration come in the file and I used the little banner flag for my magnetic opening.

Her little flowers actually sparkle with glitter but I could not get it to show in the photograph at all!! typical!!!!

Right, I am off to spend sometime with Mo. Its easter break here now and I LOVE holiday time! we get 2 weeks this time. Today Mo is having a little good friday game sale! he has it all planned and has got his little till out at the ready! Daddy has been deployed to put up a table on the front garden for him and sign making and receipt making is at the ready from the mama station!!!

Have a wonderful day everyone! huge hugs for you all, Lou xxx

Morning all!!

Oh did you see the gorgeous new lil chef's over on the shop??? they are too cute! Now I had a Mistress Mary make to share with you all today originaly but I am ashamed to say she got kicked to the dust for this cutie-  Alphabet Soup (boy). There's a boy and girl version (..because Maurie rocks!!!).

Well......what else can a girl do when she wakes up to way too cute new releases from Da Boss eh??!! I know you all understand!! he he he!!! I so adore Mo's Digital Pencil babies, they are just adorable to colour up.

And here they both are,just click on them to be pinged to their home in the shop!!

       

Yesterday, The Daubney 3 started off on a new adventure, Geocaching. Oh my gosh! has anyone else done this?? Mo was over the moon! he adored it! finding those little caches and popping his name into the logs was just the best time ever! He even found a couple with little swaps involved, now anybody who knows Mo will know that he adores little treasures. He had read this was a possibility on the site before we set out so found some little gifts of his own just incase he encountered a swap cache so he gladly popped a little green pearl marble in 2 of the caches he found, one for a little blue mouse trap game mouse and one for a little Despicable Me badge! there were other treasures but he didn't want to swap them all becausehe just loved signing the mini logs!!! so much fun, I can highly recommend it even though we walked all day and were tired out, it was fantastic fun.

This was one of his favourite finds from the church micro cache's in our village. I so adore this little guy. I can't wait for the next 4 days of school to zoom by so we can have our easter fun time together during the school holidays.

Thank you for popping in hugs Lou xxx

I can't help but scrap my little guy and with him having ASD, ADHD and his De Novo gain on his chromosome 10 gene and autism awareness month coming up here in the UK, I wanted to do one all about how awesome he is. He even wrote on the little jigsaw piece for me bless him.

Here's that cute lil guy's writing for his mamma!! ......

That delicious paper behind him was a freebie from Tiddly Inks a long time ago and is not available anymore but I LOVE it!  and being able to merge that little Awareness .png onto it makes it so much fun to colour.

I had finished my layout until we went for a wonderful walk around Rutland Water on sunday and then I had to squeeze in 2 more piccies !! he he!! well, that's what scrapping is all about for me! adding fun memories to the page!!

Right, time to go! my iron is calling me!!!!!

Morning peeps!

I hope you are all waking up to fabulous fridays? I love fridays because Scott works long hours mon-thurs and we get a bit of friday time together while Mo is at school.

And of course, its fab friday over on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog!! 

So my make was for my friends mum who broke both her ankles on holiday last week :( oh my :( both :( Luckily she is making a nice recovery now she is home but I wanted to just make her something to cheer her up while she was in hospital and Wryn New Wings  did just the job perfectly.

Well, that's it from me for today! we are hopefully going to finish off making the breakfast bar in the kitchen today. So excited because its going to look so lovely. The sun shines into our kitchen in a morning so sitting there with a cup of tea after the school run will be so lovely.
