8 Oct 2007


Oh what a busy week this is going to be! So much to do and so little time to do it in! I have the OU course to catch up on which is about 20 hours of work this week alone, my projects to finish, some other bits i have to do too, Pete to pick up from the airport, an all day crop in Plymouth on Saturday too.

Fingers crossed Tracie Hudson is coming down on Friday night and is staying for the crop this weekend. The only drawback of Scrapcamp was missing Tracies crop on Saturday and i do love spending time with such a talented scrapbooker, the inspiration just oozes out of her! Sarah did a class at the crop too and i would've loved to have been there to support her but hopefully i'll make the next one. Plus Fi aka Scrappybunny on UKS has restarted the crops near Exeter and there is one going on in Truro too so I certainly have a pick of crops....now to hope that they don't all fall on the same weekends!

So i thought i'd add some more photos from the weekend. As i said yesterday i met up with some people that i've been chatting to online for a while. Both Chloe (pictured left) and Lis (below) were on the same newbie CJ as myself on UKS. It was so great to meet them in the flesh. Chloe is such a great girl, completely not the shy girl she insists she is (and the fashion show was evidence of that)! She's such a bright young woman and you can tell that she has the world at her feet (which of course will be in a pair of sparkly shoes at the time!).



Lis was so like me it was untrue, i think we have the same kind of humour and this is one person i hope to know for a very long time and meet again very soon....maybe on one of those big cat excursions eh? I love her work and her photographs are amazing, she could really teach me a lot with a few hours and a camera!





Racheal (below), i'd spoken to on the ScrapStudio forum and she's done some lovely work. She was so nice and was up for anything, including being our teams model for the fashion show on games night. I'm hoping more people will come forward with some more photos as i was rather lax with my clicking this weekend.




I also want to say a big Hi to Denise (yes i know it's not Diane!) aka Pinkbaglady on Scrapstudio....i know she was really nervous at first but it was so nice to hear that you had such a good time and i really hope i meet all of you again at another event soon.


So this morning is going to be spent tidying and housework stuff (boo) so that hopefully after the manic monday sessions of choir practice, music lessons, food, bath and bed routine i'll be in a position to finish all my projects tonight and have some goodies to share with you. The HSMS prompt today is Autumn and unfortunately there's very little evidence of it in my street today and i doubt i'll be venturing out much other than the ferrying the kids round which usually involves lots of whinging but i'll take my camera just incase and see if i can find something later in the day.
