On this day ... 1993

we were married !

Just like today the weather was ok

but very breezy

which played havoc when wearing a veil !

So 18 years on

we are both a little older and a little wiser,

still enjoying life together.

For Paul I painted a little canvas with techniques

I've learnt on the "she art" course

by Christy Tomlinson.

Paul gave me a glass heart &

a tile by Rob Ryan

who is probably my most favourite paper artist.

If you've not seen his work please go take a look.

Blast from the past !

one of our wedding photos to make you smile.

ScrapaGoGo Blog Hop

Welcome, welcome

to ScrapaGoGo's

National Scrapbooking day Blog Hop.

Big Hi to all who have joined us from Rebekah's blog.

On a day like today-NSD

it makes me think why I scrapbook...

I love the creative outlet,

I like telling stories

but most of all I love the concept of future generations

getting to know me & my family

through the pages I make.

Who's that Girl ??

When I look at this photo

I know who the babies are.

My Dad & his twin sister.

But the Lady ??

I've no clue & there is nobody left to ask :(

I don't know all my ANCESTORS

but hopefully through scrapbooking

future generations of my family

will know theirs.

Please leave a comment about why you scrapbook

to be entered into a prize draw.

Time now to hop on over to Sarah's blog x

Scooter Girl...

ScrapaGoGo's May kit

Over the Hills & far Away

was just perfect for scrapping these photos

of Harriet.

She had received a scooter for Xmas 2005

& was desperate to try it out.

So we got her all kitted out in coat & hat

& off she went up & down the garden path.

I wasn't a scrapbooker then

so the photos are pretty poor

but by cropping them & printing them small

they still convey the fun Harriet had.

Along with the create kit

I've used the Go to Pieces add on

which includes the Maya Dd chipboard tags, kraft journalling spots

and the Studio Calico pink patterned flowers.

The arrows are this months add on stamp

& the hybrids co ordinate beautifully too.
