Here's a visitor in our back garden. They eat slugs,spiders,snails,caterpillars etc so I'm leaving it on patrol.As I'm not a keen gardener there are plenty of places for these insects and the blue tongue to hide. It seems to like our water heater.

Black with 2

Here's my layout for Black with 2.We saw these amazing artifacts from Ancient Egypt in the louvre in Paris.Maybe it is autumn coming but several of the sites have orange as a dominant colour.

A crop with Tiff

Last night I drove to Camden(in the rain) to attend Tiffiny Sawyers first crop in her new studio.I'm truly amazed at how much scrapping stuff she has.Looking at my meagre stash,I'll never feel guilty again!
We had a fun night and I met some nice people.

Here's the layout for Enchanted based on the criteria from Scrapbooking memories "what's cooking" section.Basically,it was a limited challenge.I've used a transparency which I've had for a while. It seemed to work on this layout.

Crafty sketches entry and What's cooking page

Here's my entry for crafty sketches this month.The boys got Nintendo DS for CHristmas and we didn't hear a word out of them all afternoon.I'm loving these vines,they're so versatile!
I'm working on my "what's cooking" page for Enchanted and will upload it soon.

They look okay I guess.

Production designer?

I've now been listed on From screen to scrap as official member of their design team. My title is Production designer.According to Wikipedia this means "they must select the settings and style to visually tell the story." Okay that sounds like a challenge! I'm not taking it literally (thank goodness) and I'm sure Shazza just wanted to give us all a title.
I guess I do try to visually tell the story with scrapbooking,after all it is what it is about.The theme this month is Happy Feet.I took a photo of my feet in the foot spa then added the appropriate bubbles and a penguin.
Enchanted Scrapbooking has caught the movie bug with "Alice in Wonderland"'s poster.It will be an interesting challenge this month.
This is the busy time with the books I sell.I look forward to my scrapping time when I reach home.
