Thank You to everyone

There has been a lot going on this week since we got back from wedding dress shopping in Burton. Friends and family have all been buying little gifts for our granddaughter Daisy. We have a load to take down to Lyndsdey and Gary when we visit Manchester on Saturday. I made some little Thank You cards with Daisy's photo on as a digital page using the NewLife Dreams Oh Baby kit (its georgeous; I love the little feathers and sparkles! ) After printing the layout, I have made lots of hybrid cards with paper and ribbons so that Lyndsey and Gary can write out the cards and post them out to all who have bought for Daisy.

I also decided to sign up for the Race for Life. There are a few people at work doing it and I have never attempted it before. But as my mum is currently undergoing treatment for Breast cancer, the least I can do is try and run a bit and raise some money to support the Cancer Research. I am overjoyed at the reponse to sponsor me so far as I only set it up on 9th March. You can see all the lovely people who have sponsored me so far on the right. Thank you everyone.

The Race cant do me any harm (I think) , at least it might motivate me to get into practice of at least walking the distance! That might spur on my weight loss motivation as I need to get out and move a bit more. I was weighed at my local Weight Watcher class last night and stayed the same. I wasn't too upset about this as I was actually surprised that I hadn't put on any weight after my holiday and was expecting to have an unexpected 'blip' this week. Especially after we had been out for a curry and drinks at the weekend. Oh well must try harder...

Scrapbooking family history

 I am currently working my way through significant family photographs to scrapbook layouts which can then be printed into a family history album.  I want all these to have similar vintage feel and look.  I love working with these grungy colours and muted tones. With this one, I even managed to extract a signature from one of the ephemera documents to that there is a lasting record.

printable scrapbook paper backgrounds

 Have you been trying something new while we have been isolated?  I have had a huge change in my creativity.  Teaching art and Powertex workshops is just not happening at the moment, due to all the restrictions and I needed something else to get my creative juices flowing.   I also had a major overhaul of websites, realising I was just keeping them on 'because', and they were serving no purpose at all.  I had to revamp the www.docreative.co.uk website as  this remains our primary source of training bookings and shop sales.  But my Scrapdragon website has now been discontinued as I realised I still had this free blog  with all the history attached.  This will now do for my ramblings and any freebies I want to share with people. So finally to the purpose of this first post in a long time.  While I was updating the websites, I rediscovered digital art and digital scrapbooking. Anyone who has ever read any of my diatribe and ramblings ...
