Sunday Sunday

Just having a quiet day today as I had a busy day yesterday. I was really pleased to hear that I had had a layout accepted for Scrapbook Inspirations so Kirsten and I popped down to the Post Office to post that yesterday morning. I also posted my little mini-book for a swap taking place on UK Scrappers in the run up to the cyber crop next weekend.

Then in the afternoon I was off to Edinburgh to see Footloose at the Edinburgh Playhouse. My friend's friend had originally bought these tickets for a birthday present but was unable to go as she is abroad on business at the moment so I was lucky enough to be "First Reserve" LOL. We had a lovely day out, a little bit of shopping in Edinburgh (I bought some wool from John Lewis to make a felted bag) and Tapas for tea before going to the show. The show was surprisingly good and I thought the male lead was excellent.

Here are some photos of the gorgeous little book I received. isn't it so pretty? It is full of quotes from Alice in Wonderland (the cyber crop theme is the Mad hatter's Tea Party)





And here is the book I made. I hope my swapee likes it. I didn't stick to the Alice theme (as it wasn't mandatory) plus my book is made a litte bit differently. I realised when I made it that you end up with 12 pages if you leave the book so that it can be opened from both sides. As 12 seemed like a fortuitous number I made a little date/birthday book instead. Fingers crossed it is OK






I also got my parcel from A Million Little Things. The lovely Jill there combined two orders for me so that I got a postage refund. I was a bit worried it might get stuck in customs but luckily it didn't and arrived in time for me to have play this weekend.


I love these Junkitz papers. It is so good to have some really boyish papers to work with. I can see me ordering more of these :). I also used my new Autumn Leaves stamps that I got from Angel crafts recently
Oh and the last classes finally went up on the Scrapaganza website. I managed to get the AMM doodling one I wanted. Look here. Doesn't that just look like so much fun. I am starting to get excited now...it is only 5 weeks to go I think. My final schedule now looks something like this.
