Lizzy's December Daily Kit & an Ollie page:

Hullo folks! I'm up over at the LET'S DECEMBER DAILY BLOG
with my 'kit' organisation.
 I use the term 'kit' VERY loosely.
Pop on over if you're into DD's:)
Just for interest's sake...can you guess which journal
that I went with?
I picked all of them up from the Op Shop for a couple of
dollars each...

I've been busy creating. Mostly 'happy mail'.
Some LOs too.
Here's one of them, featuring
my gorgeous 2nd Grand Boy Ollie:
Used a mix of pp's up, with this sort of  'banner'. Funky flair alongside
a very old one from goodness knows where!
And I SEWED, Lynette Jacobs. Well, my sorta sewing!
 And I managed to use that little 'vintage' style playing card
amongst my pp layers, above.
Below, I've used my LITTLE MOMENTS iPhone app
to 'edit' my photo before I printed it.
I've embarked on a project to scrap a photo for each of my 3
grand boys for each month since they've been born.
So, I've had to sort out which photos I liked best.
Some I've got done, but there are a few gaps.
I think it will make quite nice albums for them...
Thanks for taking the time to check this one out.
Have you noticed I haven't been in any challenges for a whiles?
I'm quite enjoying the break, to be honest:)
Take care now - hope you're getting yourselves
all sorted for Christmas, which is NOT
far away!!
Cheers ~ Lizzy ♥♥♥
