Back to scrapping

Wow, I haven’t posted here for nearly 4 weeks. Christmas was soooo busy – there was just no time.  Finally I pulled out some stuff yesterday and got busy because I needed somewhere to put all those christmas & holiday photos…

I used some really old papers from Dream Street but they are very pretty.

Also I wanted to thank my Secret Santa from the Scrapbooking Top 50. I don’t know who you are but it was such a thougthful and generous gift with all the little extras in the pack. I have never done a Secret Santa before so wasn’t sure what to expect (or what to send for that matter) but here’s what I got. (and yes, the postman folded the envelope in half & ruined a sticker and some chipboard! grrrr).

And I have already used some of the chipboard on the Photo box above.

Daddy was so busy this year trying to finish our outdoor renovations for christmas – it was down to the wire, there was no time for him to take the girls christmas shopping, so I took them to the local scrapbook shop and they choose 3 things each (in secret, of course) with the shop assistants help (they are only 6 and 8 years old) and bought me these gorgeous little goodies for christmas. It was wonderful to open them on christmas day and get a surprise.

I hope you all had a wonderful & safe christmas too.
