It doesn't matter how often I do it...I always have to double take on if I did it right! Is it me or does anyone else have the same problem with too many thoughts in their head at once all shouting for attention? OK, so it's me!! I am not a great Valentines person, not that I'm not romantic, I am.... a bit. But I normally forget it until after it's gone!! Lol! But I decided that I really needed to do something for the great day approaching and I came up with three little things so far. Here they are, all new to the store and at 40% off for the next week!!!

Unfortunately Gimli is no more, but with this great layout he won't be forgotten and will be a conversation piece for a long time to come!! He looks one character act of a hamster so I can understand why you miss him. The journaling is lovely, great work Su!!

Sorry I have not got credits for this one.
Linda has given the challenge a heritage look...her photos of the old black leaded range are gorgeous! Imagine...I complain about cleaning the oven...what about black leading these every week!!! The lace frames are superb and so in keeping with the photos!! Wonderful layout Linda!!

This week my mother returned home after 3 months of staying with us! My stepfather has come out of the hospital and the carers have been arranged to come in and three times a day to nurse him at home. It has been busy organising things and shopping and cooking for them to make sure that all goes smoothly...well as smoothly as possible! But they are both back home now and life will return to it usual abnormal self in my house!! Lol!!


More great layouts today for sharing!! Melanie has done one with her gorgeous little boy, entitled Boys will be Boys!! She has used this as her challenge layout at Mellow Butterfly where I have a Frame Challenge this week. She did a wonderful job on this, it is bright and fun and the colours she has chosen are some of my favourites. There are always so many details in Melanie's layouts, without crowding things...how do you do that?!!! I love how you used the button frame for the journaling...just what was needed for the Frame Challenge!! Fantastic work!!

Monday Challenge

Monday Challenge Thank you, Fleur Sampler - Play along and have some fun!!

OK, I'm late posting...I have had the day from HELL!! I took a trip to the pharmacy late morning in a town nearby and parked my little car, paid my parking fee and popped the ticket on the dashboard. No sticky stuff on it, so just stuck it up on the dashboard...simple!! Got my bits from the pharmacy and then came back to drive home. That's when it all started to go pear shaped!!

While I was gone some wonderful parking warden had given me a ticket!! Yes...a ticket!! I had paid my fee and not overstayed my time...so why had this crazy person given me a penalty fine? I read the notice and was informed that it was not clearly displayed!! When I shut the car door it had blown it from the drivers side of the dashboard over into the corner on the passengers side!! Well, by now the steam was coming out of my ears!!!! I went home and after much searching finally found a number to ring. I was informed that it was a common problem but it was still due for a fine!! I asked "Why no sticky stuff so I can stick it to my windshield?" I was told that they now used solar powered ticket machines and the new machines did not do sticky!!! No I could not bring my ticket in!! I would have to write and register my complaint...and I would still have to pay as it was "not displayed in the correct manner". They did state that when it came through later today they could send me a copy of the photograph that is always taken on these occasions!! I insisted that I would send in my valid parking ticket and the penalty notice and explained why the ticket had moved...it was me shutting the door...but it was still on the dashboard!! I wanted the thing withdrawn. Well, the lady was quite snooty and was adamant that it would still stand!! So, I have written to two departments with the original and a copy of the ticket etc, registering my protest as the fine is £60.00 ...yep £60.00!!!!! Oh my god and I had paid for my ticket anyway!! Whilst I applaud their attempts to use renewable energy for the machines I don't think that I should be paying for the machines personally!!! Grrrrrr!!!! I was so made!!! So the letters are in the post and I feel so frustrated at the attitude shown!!

OK, so enough. Now on to other things. It's Monday and the next challenge!!

Today's challenge is a Kitchen! It can be anything to do with kitchens...cooking, recipes, your new kitchen, anything as long as it has a tie in with kitchens!!!

The rules are as follows:

1. Make a layout using any kit, colour or size layout but you must include something that ties in with Kitchen/s. It can show a recipe card, photos of your kitchen, kids cooking, or even a take off from an ad!! As long as kitchens are in there somewhere!

2. Send your layout, or link to where it's posted it to me at: june.schutrups@btinternet.com

PLEASE in your email list credits for the designer/s stuff used so that I can post them with the layout. If you've all ready done this and are sending a link to me that's fine if I can see the credits there.

3. Closing date is Sunday (27 January) midnight, after that we'll be on to the next challenge!Everyone who takes part will get the link to the "Fleur Sampler" as a thank you for joining in. It has 4 papers, 2 tags, 1 frame, 1 button and 1 organza ribbon.

It's that simple!!! So join in and play along!

This weekend Christy sent me two of her layouts using some of my items and a link to her blog. She has produced the most fantastic album in memory of Tyler, her friends little boy who was killed by a drunk driver. It is beautiful and shows a lovely, energetic little boy. This album must have taken a lot of work and is done superbly. So why not pop over and visit Christy and have a look at all her great work. I have posted one below to let you see. You are a true friend Christy and I am sure that Tyler's family will treasure the album.

Life here is never dull and this week has been true to form! DH has had the dreaded norovirus that has been doing the rounds but hopefully he has kept it to himself...I know we should share but I draw the line at that!! He must have felt back as he was not in the usual "Man Flu" mood of "Oh I am dying!". No, he hardly made a sound (except when he rushed to the bathroom!). So he had to be bad!!! But today he is feeling better and ...so far..I don't feel sick so I may have managed to avoid it!! Hurrah!!
Lilly is doing well and so is her mum. Charlotte is still anaemic despite the extra plasma and she is feeling really tired but she is getting better and each day is feeling a bit stronger. It really pulls the heart strings when you see the two of them asleep together..Aaah..it takes me back!!
OK, so enough of me and my ramblings!! Before I show you a selection of the great layouts I have received for this Mondays challenge, I just want to mention two new goodies in my stores this week. One of them I especially love. Its a set of Layered Journaling Blocks. Each block is saved in 3 separate png files to allow you to add your own text and drop shadows...how you want them. You can use just the cards if you want, the choice is yours to suit your layout. I love them!! I would!!

You can find them here at 40% off this week at Scrappin Digi Kreations
Then there is a set of cute button frames! Nine frames in a variety of colours and shapes. If you miss them this week on Sale at SDK then you can get them at Mellow Butterly 20% off for the week after that!! Don't forget the Friday Freebie...for one day only each week at Mellow Butterfly too!!

Check them out here at Scrapping Digi Kreations 40% off this week!
Whew!! That was a lot of info!! But now the best bit!! Those great layouts!!
The first is from Katherine and it is just darling! Look at those pictures of father and son shaving together...boy that little one is off to an early start. I love the string circles on the frames she has used, they look really wonderful! Nice work Katherine!
