3 Big Bellies ..............


Hi everyone, another scrapbook page to share with you. This one is of Grace and her two cousins. One day at their grandma's house they got very excited after tea showing off their 3 big bellies! I just had to scrap this page as I thought it would be such fun to look back on when they are older and this is another page completed in Grace's album.
I made this page using this week's sketch at Pencil Lines Sketches.

Pollycraft Challenge #31 - Winter Birthdays ......


Hi everyone well it was hard going back to work today after a lovely long break at Christmas but the day did finish in the end! Anyway onto the next Pollycraft Challenge and I have set this one with a theme of 'Winter Birthdays'. So don't pack away all those Christmas stamps just yet lets see how versatile they can be!

We would love to see your winter creations and remember you don't to need to use a Pollycraft item to join in the challenge. There is also a fantastic prize for this challenge which is too new 2 fairy images which I hope to be showing on my blog soon once I have made a card with them!

The wonderful images on my card are from the 'Winter Ginger' range from Pollycraft Designs.

I think these double side step cards are great to show off more than one image, only trouble is I don't think I got my measurements quite right as the the card won't lay flat! I think I need a bit more practice at this one!


Thanks for stopping by.
