Make yourselves at home :D

[Elphaba]

Have added the postging Rotation to the bottom of the first thread, & will PM you the address you need when I've got my kids away to school :)

[MagiKae]

Ohhhh our (unofficial) home :) Thanks for setting it up, Jackie :)

I think I still have Edwina's addy from a wish or PIF... Can't wait to get started properly :)

[Elphaba]

Actually,
May be you could PM the person Who is posting to you your Address, Would that be ok for everyone?? That's how I've done it in the other CJ's I'm hosting.
:)

[Tullavilla]

Hurray! our new (temporary) home :) it's all official now! Kae I'll take it you have my addy unless I hear otherwise! I'm all excited now :)

[Sandie V]

Hi everyone how are you all? So glad we've got our own thread (albeit unofficial!!), I'll PM Lisa71 for her addy, and will get my CJ all packaged up ready for posting.

[cayliehotpants]

Hello all, just signing in.
Best get my book done, still not finished!!
I will pm you Edwina with my address later. Can i just ask whats your theme, so if i want to get anything i can get it soon.
OOH im all excited now!

[cayliehotpants]

I think it would be a good idea, if everyone listed there themes on here, so if we want to buy anything special we can in advance. We started doing it on the last thread. Here's the details so far.

Cayliehotpants: 'What makes you smile'

Sky-Blue-Pink: 'Too many secrets' Based on how we hide our journalling and photos.

Lisa71: 'Myths and Legends'

[Elphaba]

I'll update the first thread with all your themes as you post them :D
I'm off out for the evening, so I'll catch up tomorrow :)

[lisa71]

[MagiKae]

Morning Bunnies :) A lovely sunny day here :) Hope you are all doing well?

My theme is... SHOPPING :)

[brookesbabe]

Have PMed Emma with my address, and PMed Sandie for hers! Getting organised! Putting the finishing touches to the book ready. Have a question for you all. Are you completing your own entry to your book first before the first posting or at the end? I've read that it is entirely down to the individual but wondered if we were all going to do the same... :unsure:

[MagiKae]

I have done my entry. I couldn't wait any longer lol, I wanted to get started :)

[lisa71]

Hi everyone

Heather i have done my first page really because at least it gives everyone an idea of what i mean by my theme.

Hope eveyones well Lisa

[cayliehotpants]

OOH good one Heather, i never thought of that. Im all done except my entry. i still havent got around to doing it. I think im going to do it before i post it so everyone gets the change to see my style of scrapping. I know i cant wait to see everyone elses.

[lisa71]

Can i just ask, has everyone decided what theme they are doing.

[flobble21]

Hello everyone

My theme is 'I LOVE FOOD'. Recipes, hints and tips, describe your perfect meal, etc.

Emma

[Elphaba]

[MagiKae]

Morning Bunnies :)

[Tullavilla]

Hello all. How is everyone? Still haven't done my entry in mine, like heather wasn't sure if we were doing it 1st or last....laking in inspiration this weather I'm afraid :unsure:

[Sandie V]

I've done my entry in my book. I think it's nice to give everyone an idea of what you're doing.

[cayliehotpants]

I agree Sandie but im also lacking inspiration. I havent done a single thing since last Sunday. Hopefully i will get something sorted tomorrow as im busy today.

[Tullavilla]

Might work on mine tomorrow....working today :( Have offically called mine "Animal Magic" :)

[lisa71]

Hi Everyone

Just checking in to say hello and see what everyone's up to today.

How are your books coming along? and are you doing anything nice for mothers day?

Tuttie bye Lisa

[SingingSam]

Happy mother's day.
Hopefully having a nice family day - until the football's on! Teething baby and argumentative children may put the spanner in the works :o

[Sandie V]

Just a normal Sunday here, whether it be Mothers Day or not. I did a LO of my boys at the beach today though, and that was MY time. My boys have done nothing but fight and annoy eachother, but my DD has been good as gold, but she is too young to know what mothers day is all about. So much for being spoilt!!

Hope everyone has had a good weekend.

[lisa71]

That sounds just like my day sandie, no boys arguing but a moody daughter with raging hormones. I'll be glad to get to work tomorrow for some peace.

[lisa71]

Just realised what i wrote and maybe that was a bit much saying i wanted to go to work, maybe a day at home alone would be much nicer.

[cayliehotpants]

Hey guys, the posting date is getting closer!!!
Hope you all are ok, not a lot of chat this month obviously we are all busy.
Cant wait to see all the CJ's im getting excited noe.

[Tullavilla]

I'm getting stressed :unsure: Can't get my sign in page to look half decent :( and totally lacking inspiration on my lo.....the whole thing nearly went in the bin last night!
Going to hide it away for a few days and hope inspiration hits!!!!!

[MagiKae]

Awww don't panic. I'm sure it looks great :)

[cayliehotpants]

I'm getting stressed :unsure: Can't get my sign in page to look half decent :( and totally lacking inspiration on my lo.....the whole thing nearly went in the bin last night!

Im the same, just cant find the inspiration to do my lo. I really want to get it done so i can chill out!!!!

[Elphaba]

Hi Everyone,
Hope you are all doing ok, any questions please ask, But I'm Sure you guy's are Doing well!! :D
Hope I get to see your Entries, it's always great to see other scrappers work.

Have a good day :D

[SingingSam]

I think I know what I want to do with my LO/sign in/intro, but I'm having trouble finding time to try it. :o I'm away this weekend, so I'd better get on with it!!

[lisa71]

Hi everyone

Just checking in to say hello

[cayliehotpants]

Ive had the inspiration not only for my pages but also Edwinas(my first recieved cj). I was sat at work and they both came to me just like that, so i grabbed a pen and paper and started doodling. Guess who's scrapping tonight!!!

[lisa71]

glad to here you got your inspiration back caylie.

not long now can't wait to get going

[Tullavilla]

Caylie can u send some of ur inspiration this way please? :) Better pull my socks up quick :D

[cayliehotpants]

(Sending my inspriation to you, Edwina) Im not sure if it will get there as my plan didnt turn out as i wanted it too, so i had to start again. Ive made a start on one of my pages and hope to have it finished by Sunday so i can chill out and finish my other stuff.

[MagiKae]

The posting date is getting closer :) I am soooo excited!!! :)

[Sandie V]

Hope everyone is ok. I'm having a :( week!! My washing machine which I only had delivered 3 weeks ago has conked out on me this morning and they can't get me an engineer out until Wednesday. Thing is they won't just replace it, an engineer has to look at it first :wacko: And to make matters worse its the school hols and we're going on holiday a week Sunday :angry:

[Tullavilla]

Oh dear sandie :( thats terrible.......there's only 2 of us and I couldn't cope that long without a washing machine! Thats pretty bad service from the washing machine company & you just after buying the thing off them!!!

[MagiKae]

I agree, that's terrible customer service (if you can call it that...) (((Hugs)))

[Sandie V]

Things come in 3's don't they????????? 2nd thing today was I threw black coffee over my beige lounge carpet - aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh!!

[cayliehotpants]

My washer broke down just after crimbo, Df was out of work at the time and we had to wait 4 weeks till we got a new one, thanks to his tax return. Lucky for us his mum did our washing!! So i know how you feel and im sending big hugs!!

[cayliehotpants]

Well after a long day cleaning, im finally done. Im going to have my tea and then finish my cj.
Guess what im getting, loads of vintage lace, ribbons, fabrics, buttons and an old sewing box from Df Gran as they are moving. I cant wait to see all my little new pressies. I wonder what i will find!!! Roll on next weekend, so i can collect it!!!

[Elphaba]
