Daphne was beavering away and completed a whole layout, Emma was a little preoccupied with poorly children, but still managed a little crafting, and the best news ever, Suzie managed to break her scrapping drought - after THREE years, yes, three whole years, and she didn't just do one layout, she did two!
My layout is based on one I saw on Pinterest and that I have fancied having a go at for ages:
I once again used my lovely Piccadilly papers, and a pair of compasses for all the circles, and my old sewing machine for the stitching. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I just don't seem to be able to get the tension right when sewing on paper, but the slightly uneven stitching kind of appeals to me ;)
Looking forward to next week's crop girls!

Thank you so much for the invite to scrap with you all today, I had such fun, what a hoot!!! and best of all, I finally got to scrapbook again, yippeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
I loved it so much, that once I picked the kids up from school, I went on to make a further two layouts!!! So four layouts in just one day, that's a bit WOW for me, lol!!
Thank you Carole, for re-introducing me to scrapbooking again, it was long overdue, and I had forgotten how much fun it can be, and even more so, with you lot! lol!
Can't wait for your next crop!! And promise to get my camera into action, and upload my layouts to my blog.
