Goodness - sorry not to have posted for a while but life has been beyond hectic. My Gran had a major stroke :( and then I had to go on a residential course, but I should be back on line now!
My title is now (for definite) going to be It's All In The Details - on one side what do you absolutely have to have right, down to the smallest detail? (I have to make sure that my shopping goes on the conveyor belt in a certain order otherwise I get very tense!)
The second side - or the first, whichever way you choose to do it, is what tiny little things give you pleasure? (Dew on spiderwebs, cute embroidery on a child's clothing, your pet's paws etc)
I hope this is ok for everyone. I'm at a crop this Sunday so will put the finishing touches to mine then. Will post up a piccie before then too when I get the chance to crowbar my OH off the main PC...
It'll be good to get going on this - I need something to get excited about! :)

Hi All
I did the last cc and it was a blast, couldn't really keep up with all the goings on but i did manage to do 7 of the classes which were fab. I will definately try and do some classes if nothing else, what teams are you all in, i'm in Rumba.
Hope everyone's well Lisa

Hi everyone,
Sorry I haven't been about for ages - things got a bit chaotic with teething babies and being away.
Anyway, I'm almost ready, which is quite good for me! The journal is done, I'm just doing the last touches of my LO. I'll try and upload the cover later, but no laughing :o
I'm in the Conga Krewe as well, although I haven't had a chance to do more than glance in there yet. I'd like to do the cake swap and the bracelet swap, but I need to get this finished first.

How do you all get time to get involved in all these crops and swaps??? I barely find time to scrap at the moment, even though I've managed to do about 6 layouts in the last few weeks!! I'm supposed to be packing for our holiday right now, but I've lost interest, and my mind has wandered to that other layout I want to do.......................

Have to put the finishing touches to mine tonight then it'll be winging its way to caylie in the morning....haven't fully decorated the cover yet...will do that when it comes back!Can't wait to get kae's :)

10-04-2006, 11:19 AM
Edwina, I'm so glad to hear you haven't done the cover! I've been debating whether to do mine. I've not been happy with anything I've done for it yet, so I think I'll join you in waiting until it comes back to complete it!
The inside is all done and I'm off to post it this afternoon. :)

10-04-2006, 12:07 PM
I'm off to the Post office a bit later - getting all excited about the journal I'll be receiving!!
SingingSam
10-04-2006, 05:53 PM
I've posted mine now :o I can't believe I won't see it until nearly christmas! And I think Cayliehotpants CJ has arrived at the post office. I was out, but they left a card, so I can collect that in the morning.
How exciting :D :D

10-04-2006, 07:08 PM
Hi everybody
I posted my cj this afternoon. I've set it up like all my art journals. Its watercolour paper with the deckle edges still there. I really do want everybody to feel relaxed about working in it - I would rather it was enjoyed by all than it came back perfect!
I have participated in this sort of thing before, just not at ukscrappers, so I know how nerve wracking it is to work in someone elses book :D I just wanted to tell everybody not to worry and to feel free to experiment - you always do a better job than you think.;)
Best wishes
Emma

Mine went on its way yesterday morning (more than a fiver for international signed for - ouch!!!) and I have received Marie's (Sky-blue-pink) this morning :) ... Thinking cap on now :)
Sky-blue-pink
11-04-2006, 12:58 PM
Yours has arrived just now Lisa - it's even more gorgeous in the paper!! And the idea just popped straight into my head - just got to work out how to do it now!!
I'm glad mine arrived safely Kae - hope you have fun with it - I've left off the final finishing bits and pieces in the hope of keeping it just that little bit lighter!!! One last thing that I forgot to add to my "please no" list to bring it to the grand number of three - I've never quite got my head round the "oriental style"!! but apart from that ....anything you fancy!!
SingingSam
11-04-2006, 02:27 PM
I've got yours now Micayla. It's lovely. It's so nice to see it in the flesh - I do like a good rummage :D I've got some ideas for your page, but I shall let them stew a little - I'm not quite sure how it would work!
Off to try and catch up with the Conga Krewe chat.

11-04-2006, 06:20 PM
Glad it got there safe and sound Sam, and im glad you like it. I hope you have loads of fun with your entry. Im off conga-ing as well may see you in there, if you are propping up the bar stool!!!

Dawn, your lovely journal arrived with me this morning.
Am I right in thinking that, as this is for a little boy, we should be extra careful with embellishments - ie, making sure they are well stuck down or not bothering with them at all?
Emma

12-04-2006, 04:02 PM
Hi all
I'm back off my holiday, I'm soo jealous you've all got yours. I think mine will be here after easter. Lisa, I'm glad mine has arrived with you.
December does seem a really long time away, but I'm sure it'll be here sooner than we realise!!
bagofscraps
12-04-2006, 05:38 PM
Sam - your cj arrived this morning. Hooray! It's beautiful!
Emma - I probably should've added something about that. It's a hard one. I don't want to limit people too much, but I do want it to be safe/hardwearing. I guess if not too many embellishments are used and they're well stuck down it'll be fine.
cayliehotpants
12-04-2006, 07:48 PM
Im still waiting for your Edwina, hopefully it will be here tomorrow or i will have to wait until the bank hol is over.
Im all excited as its my birthday on friday and im going over to Lincoln on Sat for shopping, i do hope they have some craft shops, but most off all i cant wait to get into Lush for some smellies!!! I just love Lush baths Mmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!
SingingSam
13-04-2006, 12:34 AM
Glad my cj arrived Dawn. I don't trust Royal Mail :)
Micayla, my friend let me sniff some of her Lush products the other week, when I was visiting. Mmmmmmm....I nearly filled my suitcase then and there :P
I thought they just did bath bombs :rolleyes:
cayliehotpants
13-04-2006, 08:24 AM
Im mad on Lush, Sam. We get the magazine delivered at work and i drool over it all day!!!! Last time i went i ended up spending £70 to DF's horror!! If you get the chance try the cupcake face mask, its chocolate and mint and smells devine and the softly massage bar as that is chocolate and honey.
SingingSam
13-04-2006, 10:36 AM
:o Chocolate and mint?!!Chocolate and honey??!!! I'd eat it :o :lol:

Lush - Flying Fox Shower Gel - Honey and Jasmine
Sonic Death Monkey Shower Gel - Chocolate

There goes the monthly grocery budget!

Ive just recieved £25 from one of our fitters at work for a pressy(How sweet) so ive got extra to play with!!! Yippeeee!!

Thanks Emma - have got yours - my OH says you are soooo good with bright colours. Am planning that my entry will be just as bright!
Sorry have not posted up before now but have been offline for a couple of days. Have put up 3 of my scans today - I hope I've put them in the right place! Unsure how to put a link into here however. If you search for keywords - scrapbunnies, newbie and heatherd you should come across them though!
I'm posting mine on Tuesday - didn't want it to get stuck while you were on holiday Sandie!

Sandie V
16-04-2006, 11:00 AM
Thanks Heather, i'll be looking out for it after tuesday. Hope you're all having a good easter weekend.
I'm not around as much at the moment as our pc has died, and my friends DH is fixing it for us, and I'm having to use our old laptop to go online, and my DD keeps pressing all the buttons!!!!!!
Will hopefully be back to normal soon though! And a belated birthday to Micayla, hope you had a great day.
flobble21
16-04-2006, 12:21 PM
Heather
Thanks for letting me know it got there :) I was going to wait until after easter weekend before asking.
Please do use LOTS of colour, and any technique you fancy. And if you use any of the recipes please let me know how it goes. Those are some of my specials that I take to bellydance parties, and I always refuse to give out the recipes...;) ;) The Aubergine one in particular always goes down well (and people refuse to believe whats in it...:P )
Take care
Emma:)

Hey I've just realised - call me slow, but if we all manage to post the last one early/on time we'll all get our completed cj's back by Christmas! What a prezzie! All others will pale into significance...
cayliehotpants
16-04-2006, 06:19 PM
Hi girls,
Hope we are enjoying the easter hol. Ive been busy today, ive done the gardening, cleaned the house, taken my nieces to the park, been painting and hopefully i will be able to get some scrapping done tonight!! Ive got tomoorow and tuesday off as i worked on friday, so i plan to get my scraproom tidied up as well.
Sandie V
19-04-2006, 01:02 PM
I have a card from the postman to pick up a packet, so I'm guessing it's Heathers CJ. I will get it tomorrow, and let you know that I have it.
Hope everyone is well.

20-04-2006, 03:27 PM
I've just got Heathers CJ. It is gorgeous :) Right this very minute I can't think of a thing to put in it, but I'm sure with a little thought about myself I will come up with lots of things.
I intend to get stuck into it over the weekend.
brookesbabe
20-04-2006, 07:43 PM
Thanks Sandie - I had to think too when I did my own entry but when I got going I thought of way more than I could fit in! I did forget to do my own sign in card though... Save one for me girls! :D

Thanks for giving me an excuse for a really indulgent evening. The OH is visiting the in-laws, the cats are fed, and I am about to curl up in bed with a mug of cocoa and my ORIGINAL Winnie the Pooh books. It's been several years since I last got them out. I was struggling with this one, and the answer was staring me in the face from the bookcase all along.:rolleyes:
Tiddly pom, tiddly pom, tiddly pom....

Well another bank hol is upon us, what are everyones plans. Im going to an Abbey for the day to get some pictures for the Myths and Legends cj, as there is a good story behind it.
Hope everyone is ok.
I spent 2 hours in tesco's today trying to find a pressy for my nephew's first birthday, i never knew buying for children could be so hard. I got my shopping done as well so i can enjoy the bank holiday. We are hoping the weather is going to be nice so we can have a bbq on Sat, so fingers crossed for me.:)
I must of looked mad this morning at 7.30, camera in hand on the park taking pic's of the tiny ducklings. Oh well i got some cute pictures to scrap. Here's mummy duck and her gorgeous babies.

Crumbs! It creeps up on you doesn't it? I've got all my stuff ready to do the pages, just haven't had the time to sit and do it all yet! First week back at work with the little darlings and I'm done for. You'd think after a fortnight I'd get back into the habit of getting up at six quite soon but oh no! My body clock has other ideas... After a day with my class I'm ready for bed at eight at night! If all else fails I've a crop to go to next weekend!
SingingSam
29-04-2006, 11:23 PM

I'd better get playing...
cayliehotpants
30-04-2006, 03:34 PM
OH no i cannot believe it has come around so fast. Ive done my sign in tag and the one of my pages, but the printer has packed up and ive got to wait till tuesday before i can use works printer to finish the second page. Im going to get it finished by wed and get it all packed up ready to go and post on Sat as i cannot make the P.O on mondays.
I cant wait to recieve the next one in line.
Well it's nippy cold here, but we are still going ahead with the bbq. It seems a shame to waste our plans just because of a little chill.
Have a good one girls!

I think I may have a problem.
My MIL is in hospital and doesn't have long left. She lives in Sweden and I want to go over and say my goodbyes. I need to get an emergency baby passport first, then I can book my flights. So at the moment I know I'm going to be busy and may well be away for a bit, but I don't know quite when.
It's probably best not to post the next one to me until I know I'm in the country again, and I may or may not be able to get the current one done before I go.
I'm really sorry everyone. I hope this doesn't cause too many problems.
flobble21
02-05-2006, 01:01 AM
Hello Dawn
I'm the person you post on to. Just for the record, I'm more than happy if the journal is late coming from you, I don't think it will take more than a week for me to do an entry (I tend to work fast so I don't give myself chance to criticise what I'm doing and talk myself out of it.
Of course there's no question that your family must come first! I'm sure everyone understands that!
You take care now. Let me know when you do post it so I know to look out for it.

Dawn - we'll all be thinking of you.
I have the afternoon off work tomorrow due to the school being used for a polling station and I have major plans afoot...
I'm going to be brave and completely spring clean my craft room and stash... I'm going to make a box of everything I know I won't use and bring it in to school for my class to get messy with. Then I will feel righteous and be able to sit down and scrap without feeling remotely guilty about the room hanging above my head. Literally if I scrap while watching TV!
Sorry for the inane ramble but I get like that when I have a good idea. :rolleyes:

I've got a question though (probably a quite stupid one) - what do you all put on the sign in tags?
brookesbabe

In answer to the sign-in tags question, I've asked for your name, ukscrappers alias and perhaps a photo... I think it might be up to you! :)

I won't get the second journal until Dawn comes back. I know I said it was okay late because I work quick, but I'm worried that I may have to take a little more time up and post it late - I should have suggested that Dawn sent it on and it could be sent back later for her to finish...:unsure:

Emma, why don't you ask Sam who posts to dawn to post to you instead, i know dawn will miss out but until she's back at least you'll have something to do, and dawn can always do them at a later date.

Hiya Folks - I've not been about the last few days - I've had a rotten stomach bug - must be somethimg going around school at the moment!! I'm a bit better now -
Sorry Lisa the Movie CJ arrived safe and sound - I've rung and checked now - but I hadn't been in school to see it!! So much for my fail safe delivery method.
As for your Myths and Legends - thinking I could ensure a monday posting - as I can't get away from school in time - I asked my sister to post it for me - I've just checked with her and it's still at the bottom of her bag. She sends her apologies too!
I'm really sorry - if I'd been more with it - I'd have checked up much sooner...
I'll get the parcel from my sister and it should be with you by friday at the latest... I hope that's ok - I'm normally much more organised.

Hi Emma,
Glad you've got a cj to work on, lol!
I'm experimenting with the hand-painted/arty route for the Edwina's Animal cj - it's "in development", so at some point, I may just grab some handy patterend paper ;)
I've always had a confidence-thing with "art", so I'm hoping doing the cj's will give me opportunity to jump in and try...maybe :D
flobble21
19-05-2006, 07:45 PM
I was told by an art teacher at school that I was useless at it, so didn't do anything for fifteen years or so until I decided to do City and Guilds Embroidery...
Silly me, expecting to be taught embroidery.:lol: For the first year we hardly ever picked up a needle - it was all how to design on paper.:wacko:
I found out 1. actually I'm pretty good at it, and 2. how to use and abuse just about any art medium going, and 3 (most important) to completely ignore rules!:lol: :lol:
If anyone has got a copy of True Colours (Somerset Studio), which is about a Journal Round robin, that's a very inspiring book indeed. I'd recommend it to anyone

If you get a good tutor it's exellent. The first thing you learn is how to use what skills you have, rather than expect you to become a whizz at drawing or similar. I know of one tutor who, when someone said they couldn't design, presented them with a couple of potatoes and a kitchen knife!:lol: Potato prints are about as basic as you get.;)
It certainly teaches you how to design and get inspiration from anything round you - and you're encouraged to keep a design file in the form of a decorated sketchbook/photo album/ sample book. I wish I'd known about scrapping when I was doing it.

Things are not going well at the moment, which is why I haven't been on here. MIL has not improved and we're just waiting for a 'phone call. My baby has had a very high temp this week (103 at one point) and hasn't been sleeping at night (which means I haven't been either. The good news for me is that it's half term next week, so I won't have to go to work. Yippeeee!

I didn't realise how nerve-racking this would be! I don't trust RM at the best of times - a few years ago I got really upset 'cos I thought my Dad had forgotten my birthday - no card or anything except when I spoke to him he was adamant that he had sent the card and even described it. Eight months later it turned up in the post - looking decidedly the worse for wear, covered in footprints and scuffed all over... :angry:
Guess it got dropped on the floor at the sorting office and kicked around under the counter or something.
I really hope it turns up - makes me feel like a long day trip to hand deliver. :D

I received an e-mail from Marie's mum. Marie is in hospital (appendicitis - sp?). The cj will be posted asap - so at least it isn't lost :)
Emma, the swap will be sent soon as well (her mum said to pass this on cos Marie doesn't want peeps to think she's letting them down.)
So, get well soon, Marie!!!! :wub:
So glad the cj didn't get lost :)

Oh b*****, poor Marie:(
A lady in a swap I am in was asking after her, so I'll pass on
I'm quite happy for dates to be rearranged. Despite our best efforts, real life will intrude on crafting.<_<

If we do put it off for a few weeks now, we can probably catch up that time a bit at a time later so we still finish coming up to Christmas.:)
Elphaba
29-05-2006, 08:43 AM
What do you think if we hold off Posting again for 2 weeks Then I make the posting turn around 3 weeks instead of 4 to still get the CJ's home before christmas?
Would that be ok with you all?

hello - fellow bunnies - sorry to have held things up - I am so glad my Mum managed to get that email to you - Lisas journal went off earlier this week so hopefully everything should be set to move on - preferably without mad dashes to the hospital - to put a spanner in the works.
Thankyou so much for all your kind thoughts and patience- it's really nice to be back home and be back on the site - I've really missed it.

Hi Marie , nice to see you back on the boards and I hope you're feeling much better now. Don't worry, you haven't held things up at all, Jackie made a few adjustments to the posting dates and everythings just fine. The main thing was that you're alright.

I've not intentions going anywhere today, it's just too hot to drag all 3 kids about, so I'm going to leave them to their own devices and get some scrapping done instead ;)

Hi,
I'll nab the postman Micayla :)
I'm sorry, but I didn't get to the postoffice in time - it's small and they have a clever (!) way of collecting the last post about an hour before it actually closes, so I couldn't send registered post!! :huh:
I will send it first thing in the morning, sorry for the delay Dawn.
SingingSam
20-06-2006, 06:28 PM
I sent it this morning, so it's out of my hands now :)
Haven't received the one from Micayla yet, so that should arrive tomorrow.

I received Kae's shopping cj today - lovely. I may have to do some research :lol:
Micayla, I'm intrigued by the lettering on your entry. Did you use bleach or something?
flobble21
21-06-2006, 01:36 PM
Thanks, ladies :wub:
I'm actually having my 'official birthday' this Friday - my bellydancing partners in crime are booking an entire restaurant so we can clear the tables after we've eaten and have a dance - in costume - must take camera... especially to capture the expressions on the waiters faces - when we party - we PARTY!:lol: :lol: ;)
Micaylas journal arrived from Dawn yesterday. Sam's poetry journal is still with me, because I'm so ditzy at the moment I completely forgot the posting date until Micayla's arrived, so I need to package it up and post - it will go first thing tomorrow. (sorry, but at least you know it's still safe with me, and not floating around the system somewhere...:( )
