Those are lovely Copago. Were the boxes readily available?

I made them The lid is just a piece of acetate rolled around and taped to make a sleeve.

Great job, Sue!

Wow! very nice Copago. And yours is wonderful too Sue. I missed it when I posted - not sure how. You are all so talented.

Golly! I don't look in here for a little while, and just look at all the wonderful creations! Everything is beautiful, stunning

I have been busy making some Christmas gifts, but I can only post a part of one of them, as most of them consist of photos of people who might not like me posting them, made into albums or other displays.

This is the first panel of a 4-panel hanging for my niece, the only one I can show, at least until she has seen it and given me the OK to show any more.

Nice work, liz, love your polka-dot ribbon and letters. (I'm a sucker for polka dots )

Here's a LO I made recently as part of an album for one very special lady. Some of you may recognise various elements of the page:



The other pages of the album can be seen here

A parcel arrived for me this morning and there was this amazing scrapbook, absolutely gorgeous. Thank you Toni.

That is such a precious album, Toni. Alex is such a lucky child, Sue!

What a smashing jumper too!

Hehe, isn't it just?

Here's a Christmassy layout, though the colours are a little different:

After the maxi-album for Alex, I decided to go miniature, and made a neat spiral-folded album for myself.

Did anybody notice that it snowed recently???



The rest is here.

That is lovely. I am taking the album to show Vicky tomorrow.

Oh how lovely that is Toni. I just spent ages drooling at your website. You are so original.

Have fun with Vicky and Alex, Sue! Is her broken ankle better yet?

Ren, there are loads of people way more talented than I am, ... so I just copy their ideas

Got together today with my sister and some friends to scrapbook and natter. We do this every other week during the winter. I spent my time putting together the cards from the kit my sister gave me as a present for watering their plants while she and her hubby are away She knows how much I love these kits!

They are really lovely Liz!

Those are great.

You've got some great kit there, Liz ... BG papers again if I'm not mistaken (I love BG...). Your cards are fab!

I just finished making this one today. It is an A4 card so rather large.



Edited to say the card is really black not sort of mucky colour - and Sara, no, this is not your birthday card, it is nothing like the card that I have made for you!

Further edited for the sake of people who don't understand how I made it. The white started off life as a piece of A4 parchment paper, I then traced the pattern with a pencil then using various tools I embossed the design then pricked the paper along all the lines and then cut by putting the points of special scissors into two holes then snip. I started this card on 20th and finished it today but was away for part of the time so it took about four or five days sometimes working for about twelve hours with some breaks. It has been known for me to spend more than a week on one card.

Oh Sue, I love that one!

Well I certainly wouldn't mind if it were!

What a lovely card Sue. Thanks for telling us it is black because the colour appears pea soup green. - Yuk!

Unfortunately I can not take credit to this creation!
I help out on another website and a member of the website from Canada sent me - and various other friends a "Christmas Bauble" which arrived the other day. I think it is too good "just for Christmas", it will displayed all year.

Your parchment is amazing (as usual) Sue!

And Jane, I agree, that bauble is too yummy to display at Christmastime only! Lucky you!

This is it!
The fantastic beautifully crafted card that Sue has made for me. It is so so much more lovely in real . I cannot believe it.

Now thats beautiful! Lucky lucky Sara. Have a wonderful day xxx

Oh Wow! Sue has realy outdone herself this time. It is lovely.
*Wondering if there is a hidden message there....*

Have a super Birthday Ren.

The worse bit about making it was trying to make sure that I stuck it on straight.

This one did take more than a week to make, I didn't take note of the number of hours but it was a lot.

If this wasn't enough, I then made the same design but reduced the size to A5 instead of A4 - I was on a roll. The person who received it was pleased with it.
