Using up old scraps

Today i decided to try and use up some odds and ends of patterned paper i had lying around, i only actually managed one page but hey its better than nothing and i have used paper i probably would have just thrown in the bin! so here it is, another page of alexander, im trying desperatley to catch up with his album as he was born last july and i only have 6 lo's in it so far! hoping the up and coming cyber crop might help me out with this! i am in the ships for the cyber crop and am pleased to see alot of old faces from uks are aswell, it will be good to chat to people again :)

Just a reminder that the deadline for the scraplift comp from rebekahs birthday blog hop is tomorrow!

Birthday Blog Bash

Firstly i would like to say a massive happy birthday to the gorgeous Rebekah.

Well here it is my turn on the birthday blog hop, hopefully you will have hopped here from Deanne's Blog. I do hope everyone has been enjoying the hop so far and you have all made some delicious creations :) Seen as it's coming to the end of the hop i thought i would give you something a little more simple to do! I have attatched a layout of my nephew Alexander which i created for this project. My challenge to you is to scraplift this page, change as many or as little elements as you like or do it exactly the same, its up to you, one condition though.........post a link to your creation here by the 5th of April and i will choose my favourite. This person will receive a mystery gift from me......no sorry no clues! The next stop on your blog hop is the blog of the talented Claire Bell. Enjoy :)

Another little sneaky peek

here it is girls another little sneaky peek! just incase you were intrigued from yesterdays post...........

Sneaky Peak

i just thought i would give a little sneaky peak of the project i will be posting on sunday for Rebekahs birthday blog bash :) Hope it wets the taste buds! lol

Birthday Blog bash

I'v been invited by Rebekah to take part in her birthday blog bash, for this bash i have created a layout project which will be posted on my page on sunday 21st march at 8pm. For more info on the blog bash check out rebekahs blog http://www.thehappyscrapperuk.blogspot.com/

Graduation

Well as my graduation is looming, well maybe not looming but january next year, anyway it got me thinking i should maybe scrap my sisters graduation photo! It a big deal as i don't actually get to scrap very often at the moment due to pressures at uni! Will post again later today with details about a Birhtday {Blog} bash im taking part in :)

Update again

Sorry i always seem to forget to update this lol little time and too much to do may be the problem! Well a little update i suppose, i got my exam results, 1 merit and 2 high passes, i missed out on the other merits by 3 and 2% so was a little dissapointed but pleased also. I have finished my first placement for the year, i was in the breast unit in oncology, it was very emotional but very educational and i learned a hell of alot! My next placements are care of the elderly and then ITU, to say i am excited about ITU would be an understatement!

It was Jamies 3rd birthday on the 24th, i really cant beleive he is 3 already how time flies, he had a party with bouncy castle on the 25th and his new baby brother Alexander James arrived on the 26th! Weighing 8lbs 9oz he is just gorgeous, although Jamie isnt too keen and wanted to send him back!

I havent done much on the scrapping front, at the moment i am lucky if i manage a lo a month but it is better than nothing, i just dont seem to have the time with work and university although i relish the day i will have lots of time, and beleive me there will be a huge backlog of photos waiting! I am also excited to be getting a layout published in Scrapbook Trends magazine, i am hoping it will be in the next issue, which will be issue 5 october.

Anyway i dont think i really have all that much more to say at the moment, but promise to try and keep this updated a little more!
