Saturday Scrapping

I love our Saturday crops although October's was tinged with some sadness for our friends who have had bad news or who are going through a hard time just now. We are a very tight-knit bunch, and have been lucky enough to share some wonderful celebrations together over the years, but just now it seems we are sharing quite a few sorrows. We were all thinking of the ladies who couldn't be there and thinking of ways we could help them along, cheer them up and of course keep them updated with the gossip!

I also (shock horror) got a layout finished. And a double one at that. Mind you, I didn't have Sandra's handbag to shovel all of my paper off-cuts into so it took me ages to tidy up afterwards!!



Its DD's 8th Birthday Party held jointly with two other Year 3 girls with Summer birthdays. All of the children really enjoyed their pottery painting afternoon and we are now the proud owners of a silvery-red fighter jet and a blue/green patchwork penguin (complete with glittery beak!).
Thank you to Gaye for the yellow alphas - they were perfect :)

  2. Imagine my shock, when I see that The Saturday Scrapper has not only blogged, but completed a layout ... and a gorgeous double one at that at a crop. Not only was I sorry to miss you actually scrapping ..and of course the upset that resulted in a clean handbag for me - but I wish I could see the photos of the the birthday girl.

    Such a stunning layout, pefect celeration papers ... I'm just trying to work out just how many paper layers were used LOL
