Please welcome....

Sky-Lark (Moonunit) Purdy and Summer-May Purdy!!
Born 5 weeks early on 16 May weighing 4lb9oz and 4lb12oz.

I must admit, it was rough going for a while, esp having my babies taken away from me soon after birth to be placed in warmer cots and drip fed FORMULA milk!!!! So not only did i have to cope with not feeling like a mum for a few days, but my babies were being fed cows milk and chemicals!
[shudder]
Anyhoo, after self discharging myself and the twins 7 days later i started to feel like a mum.
How can anyone try to say that formula milk is better for your child??!!
Here they are...my beautiful princesses.

(oh, i have scrapped...quite a bit, but havnt got round to uploading...for some reason there is always summat else to do lately!!!

Angel Crafts Ribbon kit....

For March

I managed to do these 3 projects using this fabby ribbon kit:)

February page for my baby book..


Peace Love and Animal rights..a mixed media canvas..


...And a Mothers day card and mini acrylic book..







Thats all for now and i promise not to leave it so long between posts!!(it ends up taking an age to upload everything all at once!!)
Peace outxx

Finally.........

Im uploading!!!
Fancied a change to my blog too! Although what i really wanted to do was to change the skin, but that proved far too much for my poor pregnant head to comprehend!!! So, unless any offers of help flood in, this will have to do for now:-)

I have joined in a CJ at UKScrappers..a 'use your own photos' CJ, the theme being our offspring really.
This is my cover and entry for the CJ...




More of my art journal...





AngelCrafts ribbon kit for February...






I have 3 more projects to upload, but i also have a very tired little boy to get to bed first! So i'll leave you with this photo of Amber for now:)

Retro font....

Inspired by the challenge over at The creative type, I downloaded a retro font to use as the title for this layout, plus the journalling.
I was also inspired by number 119 pencillines sketch and i used the fabby studio calico kit(jan)..I cant give enough love for this kit! It is so versatile and you get SO much!
HUGS


I couldnt get my 'scan and stitch' to play ball when i tried scanning this layout, so had to resort to taking a rather dodgy photo!!

Mmm, well....

I have been sort of busy scrapping and creating, but have found that pushing paper and paints around has taken over at the moment!
Hopefully this wont last long as its SO annoying!
My latest layouts...both for my 2009 yearbook(am keeping up to date with that!!)
I used the fantastic Studio calico (jan) kit for them:)

LILY


GANDALF THE GREAT


And these are my tags, inspired by Emily Falconbridges 52Q.
From top to bottom...
'What do i wish for this year to bring'
'Am i afraid of change'
'Do i believe in fairies'
'When i look into my eyes i see'


Ok, off now to find my mojo..!

I bin tagged then!

By not one, but two fantastic and very artistic ladies!
Luckily, its the same tag to...its late now and i hear my bed calling!!
Katy....thankyou!..You must go check out her blog...the layouts that girl produce are amazing, and her gorgeous dogs grace most of them!
Louise....thankyou too!..This lady is a total inspiration! I love the fact that she can scrap with seemingly anything!

Anyhoo, the tag rules...
1. Go to the section of your computer where you store all of your photos.
2. Select the 6th folder.
3. Select the 6th photo from that folder.
4. Post and explain about that picture.
5. Tag 6 other people.

Well, here goes!


Thats what i found there!
Actually this has been on a very recent layout..I wanted to scrap a pic of my youngest son Raven attending school...this is his first year at 'proper' school, and bless him, as you can see from the photo, he isnt best pleased!! This pic is actually one of those 'school photos' but i loved that it was so teeny tiny..(im loving tiny photos at mo!!)So, thats why the photo is there and thats the explanation!!Oh, and the little tv in the corner?...Lol!! Its a sticker which is still stuck in my scanner!!!
Now, I gotta tag 6 others...
gonna go comletly random here....
1)Anam
2)Scrapdolly
3)Adrienne
4)Amelie
