A couple of firsts

Been absent again! Life is so manic that one day seems to run into another. Since I last blogged we've celebrated Adam's birthday and enjoyed the long Easter weekend. Yesterday we went to a new Church and really enjoyed the service. We're hoping to make this our regular place of worship. Best of all, the church is only 10 minutes away in the car so is much more practical than previous churches we've gone to. Funny thing was, we didn't even know it existed until we had an unexpected visit from a friend who we hadn't seen for ages, who was looking for a street in our area so dropped by for some help. He told us about the Church as it's where he and his family go! Talk about all things working together for good!

Anyway, here's a page I did at the last crop. It's a landmark for me as it's the first time I've completed a crop challenge in the allotted time. I didn't like the mish-mash of title letters at first but I do now!

CJ Entry

Can't believe it's over a week again since I blogged. I'm getting really terrible! That's the trouble with having two pc's as only one has all the files and software I need to post pictures and that one is upstairs.

I posted the next CJ on Monday. It was on the theme of Magic and Sparkle, which I found really difficult as being a Christian I don't have anything to do with Magic in the supernatural or even magic tricks way. In the end I did an entry about the magic of Creation as the CJ owner said we could do what magic means to us. I hope she likes it.

First pop-up Card

Now Mothers Day has gone by I can post pictures of the card I made for my Mum. I'm pleased with it as a first attempt but would like to experiment with the shaping. I've also completed a couple of layouts but, as usual am struggling to take photos. I am so in need of a new camera!
