Dream Big

Hey Everyone, I was so inspired by this months scrap the boys sketch, this is my 1st time joining in on Scrap The Boys, as iv only recently found the blog.  I used the Pink Paislee Wild Child Collection, I cut out the star and backed it and then handstitched around the star. I only have the 6x6 paper pad for this collection so instead of one long strip along the bottom i made two smaller strips for the bottom and the top.  Scrap The Boys Sketch Thank You For Looking Keighley xx

We Are Here

Hey Everyone, Yesterday my March Mind The Scrap It arrived and i couldnt wait to get stuck in. I took inspiration from the March Stick It Down Sketch. I handstitched my title, something i really enjoy doing, and used the travel themed embelishments and stickers from the kit, although we only holiday in the UK, alot of the stickers and embellishments in the kit are still perfect for me to use.  Stick It Down Sketch Thank You For Looking Keighley xx

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,
