Lifting myself! G is for Glitter...

Here is my DT scraplift for March ( it felt a bit odd lifting myself LOL). I just ADORE these lush papers from BoBunny, they are from the Snowfall collection are are so, so pretty. The glittered designs and colours are completely lush and with a bit of fussy cutting and the addition of a few blossoms and some extra glittering I hope I have done the papers justice.


The photo is of Lauren,, taken in last years snow that we had in January.

Here are a couple or so close ups :)
The hydrangeas are velvet and made by Petaloo.


The Bo Bunny papers have some beautiful patterns and elements on them and rather than use whole sheets I picked out and cut a few bits and peices from them. Extra glitter and sparkle was added using Stickles and other glitter glues.


We look forward to seeing your entries in this months challenge over at Scrapology, where the theme is G is for Glitter and there is a sketch to work from.
Once again there is a fabulous prize, very kindly donated by Jill of Cardinal Colours.

Come on ladies, shake ya glitter!

Home Delivery Service!

Despite the continuing atrocious weather conditions, certain supermarkets still give first class service with their Home Delivery....oh yes indeedy!

Lean on Me!

Just look at our poor old snowman LOL. This is what he looked like this morning when I came home from work! Definately a bit sorry for himself.



These following photos were taken yesterday. I took Chloe for a walk, well, it was a drag really as I towed her halfway round our town on her sled. Today I ache in places I didn;t know I had though. This was soon cured by taking her out across town yet again being towed on her sled. Hey, its good exercise....just call me Husky!
Anyway, this is the Common Pond, which was pretty much frozen over. thankfully there was still a nice open patch in the middle for all the feathered friends.





Chloe decided we hadn't got enough snow in our garden so she insisted on bringing some back from the pond!


The light had faded fast but just as we neared the top of our estate I snapped this piccy, sorry its not very good quality. If you look in the distance you can see the South Downs and the snow covering up there.


Once we had emptied out all the snow, rolled a biiiiig snowball and then Chloe had trampled it down we strolled down the road to where there is a short, but steep slope. Chloe came down it so fast this is all I had chance to catch lol!

Snow Much Fun!!!!


Well, yet again both the girls schools have been shut today, I have to say they have been delighted with it all. Lauren went online to the school website where they had set homework for the pupils to do online and she has completed all of that, Chloe has been stamping today and then I said if I could get our car off our estate I would take them sledding at a nearby village( providing we could get there). Well, it took a bit to get off the top of the estate, but we did and away we went. Gosh, we had SUCH good fun. Neither of the girls have ever done it before, we did have a laugh. I really should have got out earlier in the day though, we didn't get to the field til nearly 4pm so the light wasn't great for pics ( as you can see, the quality of them is very poor, sorry) but anyway, I thought I would share a few with you.
