National Scrapbook Day | Saturday 6th May 2017

Hi everyone and welcome back to the blog!

Today (6th May) is National Scrapbook Day, so I hope that you have your scrapbooking hat on! As part of the day's celebrations, lots of creatives, bloggers, youtubers, project lifers, scrappers and lots of other great people will mark the occasions by either putting their memories together in albums and pages or being part of that picture to be scrapbooked - win-win right?

As part of National Scrapbooking Day, I have been over the year adding to last Summer's holiday with friends to Gosport, Hampshire, located in the very sea-nic (see what I did there?!) south of the UK - and I thought I would share some of the pages I've made and photos I took on our group trip.

This is the album - it is a We R Memory Keepers 4 x 4 album from their 4 x 4 Insta Album Kit. I bought this in TKMaxx quite a while ago.



I used some alphabet stickers to decorate the front and a chipboard geotag.




I've included a few pages here, one is a tag the day before I went away with friends, an envelope page to store a few leaflets and an actual leaflet from the shopping centre we went to as well.




I've included a bit of the shoe box from some shoes I bought, as well as a few 4 x 4 photos printed out.


When we were on holiday, Pokemon Go! was launched and we ended up walking up and down the roads and neighbourhood looking for Pokemon - it was so funny!



I've also included some CD sleeves to create clear pockets to store tickets, receipts, cards, rail tickets and similar just so that I can see what is in the envelope and remember the rides, journeys or places we visited.

I hope you like this little album share of our group trip - I hope that you guys will be scrapbooking today as part of National Scrapbooking Day - thank you so much for stopping by today!

Happy Scrapping!

Simon Says Stamp - Shipping / Customs and Dispatch (UK)

I heard about Simon Says Stamp many years ago through Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire, both of whom worked, designed or were (and still are) affiliated to the brand - they've designed stamp sets for them, done projects for them, created videos with them and their products and they were always a brand that I thought I would never be able to get hold of because of where I was based location wise - which is in the UK. I took the plunge in making my first order with them back in December 2014 and ordered nearly $60 worth of merchandise, which probably doesn't seem that much based on the US dollar but for me it definitely was - the shipping for the item total exceeding $50 was $20 and this hadn't been added to the total yet! Since that order, I have not looked back, I buy products from Simon when they have flash sales, as the shipping is worth it, or once maybe every 6 months as I can't really afford to buy from them more than 3 or 4 times a year. When I do...

Happy New Year 2019!

A very Happy New Year to one and all! I hope that you have all had a splendid, restful Festive Season.  It has been quite a while since I posted on this blog, so I hope that you will forgive my absence for the most part of 2018. It has been a busy year and I have to be honest the desire to blog about craft has been less desired or fulfilling. Making and writing about craft simultaneously was not forthcoming with me - doing the two things separately was a lot more enjoyable. I tend to do a lot more making and enjoying the process rather than actually writing it down. But for 2019 I really want to get back to the grind again. Being able to make things and share them with you guys and also enjoy doing the two processes together is something I really want to get back to. I have been creative - though not blogging - YouTube have given me a sense of putting content out even if it isn't in writing form, but also doing Design Team work for Die Cutting Essentials Magazine, which ...
