Time for a much needed holiday!


Well, its the end of a very busy week and I get to go away for a much needed break! From Saturday 7th to Saturday 14th July, my family and I will be on a Canal Narrow boat with no internet access (how will I cope!) so I won't be able to answer any emails or messages, but Tina & Linda won't mind at all if you email them!
While I am away Tina is going to post my new kit - Watercolour Daisies - so just to whet your appitite, I thought I would show you a page I created with it.

Oh, and if you like participating in scrapbooking challenges, I am starting a challenge with this kit at Scrapbook Flair on Monday 9th July. And I shall look forward to seeing lots of beautiful pages created with the kit when I get back! So this week while creating your pages, think of me in the English rain, drinking wine and relaxing on the Narrow boat. I am so glad that there are lots of pubs along the canals in England, which means I won't need to do much cooking!

Suave Silver & Power Ties by akida29


This is a somewhat darker kit than usual, but I found there really was not much out there to use when scrapping pictures of men...hopefully, you will find this useful! The solid ties (cravats, actually), as well as the large tie tacks, can be used as journal tags.

It's About Time by Doormouse


One of my other passions (apart from digital scrapbooking!) is family history, and creating heritage scrapbooks. My frustration at not finding many kits that gave me the elements I wanted, resulted in this kit. I'm fascinated by time and the history of our ancestors. I really hope that you find this a good kit for all those heritage Layouts!
It started out as a very small kit - but I suppose you'd now call it a mega kit! I had such fun creating this one, playing with effects and layers etc to create the backgrounds. Every kit I make - I learn more and I hope this means that what I create for you will get better as time goes by!

Time for another Lay out I think - after all, there is no point having all these kits if I don't do anything with them is there? This is one of the LO's I created with this kit and you can see others at Scrapbook Flair if you want to see how versatile it can be. The photos are of my grandparents, my dad and great aunt and uncle - taken during the war. I wanted to record how life carried on while grandad was away in the army during the war.
