the girls and I finally got together again on Saturday after a few false starts and we worked on this years year book. We try to grab a few photos each month so that looking back we can see what we did each month. This year is slightly different as I made them a tag set for christmas each containing a sketch for the month so it will be fun to see the different interpretations. Not so different maybe this month as we all used the new sizzix bigxl die to make a pop up snowman. We had wonderful fun and eventually after numerous gluings they all worked.

52:10

finally the photo the right way up :o)

This is the page that is fullfilling 2 weekly challenges - 52 sketches in 52 weeks and 52:10. We were challenged to write about the changes in the last decade and while it was suggested we might like to do a before and after we only got the after picture.

The sketch was a challenge too as I am using a 12*12 to do a 6*12 - - well it keeps me quiet

so far behind

I can't believe I got so far behind - but I lost the gadget to upload photos - course I find it today in the place it should be so now the camera has no batteries!

I will upload my journal pages I took till the batteries died. I haven't quite finished I have left some pages till I can get the photos printed off. With the new year starting I have also started a album using prompts from Dollysdreamings and the sketch challenge over on Scrappiestdisneyscrappers@yahoo.com. Nothing like combining two things - double acheivement each time I make a page :O)
