Funky Playground Designs - A new Collab and a Template Challenge

Gosh has it really been since June since I last stopped by! Oh dear, well, I have been having a great time, first a trip to the UK and then we had friends staying with us. July was a brilliant month, busy but fun!
But now back to Digiscrapping!

First let me show you then new August FPD Collab - Corduroy Boy! Do stop by the Store ALL collabs past and present are on sale in August! (image linked to all store collabs)

And this is my layout using it! (one of the fun things we got up to whilst on holiday in the UK)

Now about the challenge I am hosting at FPD, this month I am hosting the template challenge and Andrea of Little Green Frog Designs kindly offered to make the template for the challenge, and WOW it's a good one!
Here is the layout I made for the challenge using it! (image linked to challenge)

Dinphy and I during her stay here! We had such a good time, that no one got any pics of us together, or at least not many!

Hope to see you at FPD!
I'll be back tomorrow to remind you of a chat and show you what I created for Danyale of etc by Danyale!

A Sale and a freebie

I'm here a bit early today, I nearly forgot to tell you about the GREAT sale happening at DigitalArts Cafe.And on the subject of DigitalArts Cafe, Mozz (Forever More Creations) has a new challenge up. It's a template challenge with a difference. For the first half of the month you can pick up shapes and create you own template. Then for the second half of the month, you get to scrap with the "Chosen template" to get an awesome Mini Kit prize.
so what does that mean for you... well, this month we are working on a CD brag book, and I have created this template for you with Mozz's shapes!I hope you enjoy it (it is my very first template, so constructive criticism is welcome).

I'll be back tonight to update with my everyday life!

Well, here I am back again. Although not a very exciting day. I was picked up this morning by the repair shop to get my car back. I have no idea what damage was done and how much it cost, the girl at the desk was busy on the phone and just handed me the car key. So it does mean that the cost was over €300 as under that price we would have had to pay and not the insurance. Ooops! We will get the bill for the €300 from the insurance soon!

Isn't it amazing that after just one day of REALLY cold weather, when it warms up to -10°C (14°F) it feels "warm" - funny that! The walk to Kindergarden this morning was much more pleasant than yesterday!
I still didn't take the boys out in the afternoon, we kept the fire going again and played in the lounge, let me think, today we did Lego, played pairs and played with the self timer on the camera - want to see?!Ignore my "hat hair" in this weather I won't go out with out one, and that puts pay to any of my curls! Robert was intent on pulling silly faces! But they did have fun running back and forth to push the button. And I have to show you this one, this was Mummy's idea and they actually did it!!
My boys "they love me lots and lots"!

Bye 4 now
