It's WOYWW ~ 10 November!

Today I have spent a blissfully happy morning at the dining room table scrapping. Not particularly productive. Lots of cups of coffee. Several pretty papers shuffled about. Boxes and baskets of embellies rifled through. But I was happy.

I ran about like a mad thing first thing this morning. School run, dashed around Asda to buy ingredients for tonight's lasagne ( Oh yes, and a HUGE tin of Celebrations chocs ~ to be stashed away until Christmas!), did the hoovering and other boring houseworky stuff in record time so that I could give myself the rest of the day off! To craft!!!



If you have arrived on my blog via Julia's blog, Welcome and thanks for stopping by. The pic above shows the table with my 2nd layout of the day mid progress. There's the obligatory coffee cup and at the back there is my newest purchase .... the rather cute Martha Stewart butterfly punch! Oh, how I love this punch!



If you haven't got a clue what I'm on about pop over to here to see what WOYWW is all about!

I'll leave you with the one layout I did manage to finish this morning!


Journalling reads: "I am probably biased but you have such a beautiful smile"

This is a scraplift of a layout by Liberty Chance that was in issue 49 of Scrapbook Magazine.

* Blue Sea...Blue Skies *

Hi Bloggers!

Can't believe how long it has been since my last blog post! Sorry!

I have been back from holiday over a week now and it's only this weekend that I have had a little time to myself to blog about it. I think I must have got buried under the holiday washing, don't you just hate the unpacking and laundry when you get back from hols?!

We had the most relaxing holiday ever in this beautiful place.






Portinatx, Ibiza!
A small, quiet resort on the north coast of the island!


We were lucky enough to have great weather, and enjoyed 21-22 degrees, sunshine and blue skies apart from on 1 day when the winds picked up and it was a little chilly. But the change in the sea from the calm, still waters that we had played in the previous day to the huge waves crashing up on to the sand and rocks was amazing to see and made for some great photos.
On one of the days, we took the local bus (an experience in itself!) to the capital of the island, Ibiza town. Exploring the Old Town was one of the highlights of the week for me!

I was going to post a few more pics that I took but for some reason blogger won't let me upload more than 2!!

I'm having a day of sorting out my craft stash.

Then tomorrow I will make stuff!
It's been too long since I did some crafting!
