Still Waiting.....



We are still waiting for our grandchild to be born. Our daughter is now 10 days over her due date and getting bigger and bigger.

We hope that everything is well and baby is born with some intervention early next week. I hope this lazy baby will stay happy and contented when it emerges into the world. There is a large family waiting to meet him or her!

As I am waiting, I used the Waiting to Happen kit from MGLscraps. This kit is so versatile and perfect for scrapping our waiting game.

The layout is of my daughter Michelle when she showed teenage attitude.

I knew it was one of those days...

When I woke up with my left eye swollen shut. When I prised it open it was very red and sore. I felt like Quasimodo. That sort of things happens occasionally when O get run down or have been very busy. Just in time for a bank holiday weekend then! Not only is it a long weekend and I was looking forward to going out for a bear or two tonight but we are off to visit baby Daisy in the morning. Then I went down stairs and made a cuppa. Allan got up and went to refill the kettle and a bit of plastic fell off. When we looked the inside of the lid had corroded and the plastic was turning to powder. A new kettle was desperately needed, we had had that one for about nine years so we cant complain. But I felt sick when I realised I had just had a cuppa tea from that which meant drinking corroded plastic! As I have just started Cheryl Johnson's Painting with Light the sequel online photography course I took my camera to work. As soon as I got there I was asked to take a photo of ...

Traditional bookbinding techniques

 I love learning new skills. I have been making scrapbook and albums for a while with the floating spine paper technique, but wanted to research the traditional bookbinding skills. I used a quality dot grid paper cut and folded into 10 signatures each with 8 pages (in my math thats an 80 page notebook!) The signatures were handswn together with waxed cotton thread using strips of Tim Holtz fabric as strengthener on the binding.  The end pages had fabric wrapped around the edges and then added to the signature block.   Tiny bits of header piping was added to finish off the ends.  The spine was given a generous coat of bookbinding glue and muslin wrapped over. Only then did I layer on the faux leather glued to both back and front and finished with corners. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/MyYJCVpt5Ek" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-pi...
It was a shock to they system to go back to work after two weeks in the sun. Especially when I haven't even finished wading through the mountain of laundry. As a distraction to avoid looking at the laundry, I have been reviewing the photos which I took in Egypt while I was playing with my new Canon 450D camera and the 50mm lens which Allan bought me for Christmas. These very clever carvings were on display in the hotel restaurant. They had lovely displays of fruit and vegetables everyday. I just had to capture the colourful display. I set off tonight for my Tuesday weight watchers class in anticipation of the two weeks all inclusive menu of the Hauza Beach Resort in Sharm would have increased my weight dramatically. I was overjoyed to find I had stayed the same as before my holiday and not managed to put on an ounce! I don't believe it, we must have drank at least a bottle of red wine each day. I will have to be really ggood for this week otherwise it will show on m...
