Where does my path go??



I have been searching for old photos of me to use in my new "pieces of me" album I'm starting. As iv been finding photos memories of back then flood back,its been a long time since i looked at some of these photos,and its started me thinking about the paths iv taken so far in life and where
I'm heading now.I fell like i have been marching on the same sport for years and if i don't start marching forward soon i might run out of time! time for what! i don't know lol. But i will ponder that.
I think i will make a list or a mini album with things that i wont to achive,might be interesting to see what i come up with!

Oh to be young and skinny again lol


I had a lot of fun doing this layout,i don't have many photos of me around this age,think i was to busy having fun.
I have decided to join in with the "pieces of me group" that meet up every second Thursday and scrapbook studio,I'm always up there on a Thursday anyway hehe,so have got an album and just need to decorate it.
Still full of the flue and all stuffed up which has stooped me from scraping for a few days,when you fell so yuk,all you wont to do is snuggle up with ya tissues and not move.
Anyway time i was in bed. Thanks for visiting

Another LO from the May D.T kit

I have used Basic Grey off beat Novel which i cut out the pattern,off beat peculiar and easy going,i added some bling and pearls,a couple of the gorgeous Prima flowers,inked the edges with Tim Holt's distress inks and added my title,the small words are from my own stash.

I have had 2 down with the flue here since last week and now i have it,woke up this-morning coughing and spluttering,have ear ache and sore throat,you know the drill,i still have to get the house in order for Monday and tonight i fell so drained,ill see how i am in the morning,if I'm still like this I'm staying in bed.

Hope you have had a good weekend and got some scraping done,i still have 2 to finish in the next couple of days lol no pressure.
