Iv been thinking long and hard about my first post to my blog and i thought id start with an introduction, abit about myself, my family and also my scrapbooking, it may be a long one 🙈
My names Keighley, Dimples Scraps is named after my Daughter Darcie who has the biggest and cutiest dimples ever, she has many nick names but Darcie Dimples is my favourite.
Im from Accrington, Lancashire in the UK, i live with my childhood sweetheart Thomas (Tom), we have been together since we was 16 and finally tied the knot in May last year (after 11years together). We have two beautiful children Thomas (TJ) who’s 6years old, he loves computer gaming and all things superhero and Darcie who’s 2years old , shes a typical toddler, lots of tantrums, mess and cheekiness but she can be such a sweet little thing, lots of kisses and cuddles, theres never a dull moment with Darcie around. We also have two fur babies, Spud (Staffie) whos been with us since he was a puppy, we got him just after TJ was born, a new born and puppy was really chaotic but it was all worth it because they have an amazing bond and really are best friends. Spud has an amazing temperament and loves children, we call him our Nanny Dog, where ever the kids are hes right behind them. Our 2nd fur baby is Pippa the cat, she doesnt really like the toddler (which is understandable 😂), shes more for me and loves a cuddle, specailly in an evening once the kids are in bed.
Iv always loved making things, even as a child i was always colouring, drawing and making things, my mum taught me to cross stitch quite young which i loved, in secondary school I did Art and Textiles GCSE getting a B in Art and an A in Textiles. At 17 my mum bought me a scrapbooking set and thats when my scrapbooking journey began (although then it was nothing like it is today). Once my babies came along it was alot harder to fit in time to scrapbook and my local craftshop closed so for quite a few years my crafty stash was all hidden away. I then found Mind The Scrap on Facebook in May last year (just before my wedding), I loved looking at everyones layouts and in June I bought my first Mind The Scrap Kit and Subscribed, since then my love for scrapbooking returned and i scrapbook regularly and make that time for myself (mainly in an evening when little hands aren’t around).
I love joining in challenges on Facebook, Emma at Mind The Scrap launched a new Monthly challenge yesterday which im excited to join in, even more so now my Feb Kit has arrived. As alway the kit is amazing and i cant wait to start creating with it.
Im also taking part in a layout count for 2018 with some of the girls from Mind The Scrap, currently on 25 layouts of the year so far.
If you got to the end of this post, thank you for reading (hope i didnt bore you to death 😂)
I will post again very soon xx
