About Me

My photo
I'm a 30-something wife to Gary, and mum to James (4) and Katie (2). After making loads of cards during my first year-long maternity leave, I'm now busy, busy, busy, with work and two kids. I'll get back to it someday though, I'm sure!

Hello Baby!






My first ever attempt at scrapbooking!

James was born on 17th January and I thought that it would be nice to start recording his life so far in a scrapbook, so that I could give it to him as a keepsake on his first birthday. Page 1 is his arrival!



You won't be able to tell from these pictures, but this page is actually quite glittery. I've used Nana's Nursery (baby boy) papers (a stonking £14.99 for 64 8x8 sheets!) as I'd already chosen the coordinating scrapbook. The 'hello baby' heading uses papermania letters in blue, which I've gone over with turquoise sparkles glitter glue.
I'd really appreciate your comments on this one!
