Love the Cosmo!

I was incredibly lucky to have for Christmas this gorgeous paper pack.

Not only that, but co-ordinating dolly pegs filled with ribbons, plus buttons and tiny alphas. A stunning kit from my good friend Rae. I always love Cosmo Cricket, but haven't bought any for myself for a while. When we first saw Circa 1934, I immediately said that it was so Rachael - the colours and patterns just completely complement her style. I love these papers, although if I'm honest, I probably wouldn't have bought them for myself, but only really because I wouldn't have been brave enough to. They are bold and striking, and like I said, more like Rachael's style than my own. But boy am I glad she did buy them for me, because I am addicted! I always love incorporating black into my LOs, and using black cardstock was fun. I have really enjoyed using them, and if I get a chance, I'll be back onto it tonight! I was also lucky enough to receive Page Maps 2, and if you have it yourself, you should be able to recognise the sketches I've used her. So, all credit to Page Maps for the sketches I've used. And here are my latest offerings:

I have also broken into one of my pile of Scrapagogo kits. Well, I say "pile" but really it's only two. And I'll carry on with this tonight.

Finally, a LO I threw together using scraps from my Skrapz kit. Don't forget, if you're free this saturday you can come along to Shrewsbury and do a gorgeous mini-book and this LO. I think there are a couple of places left. We'd love to see you!

I don't have much else to say just at the moment. We are currently busy preparing for two special birthdays in the house - it's Cam's today and then Bella's on the 25th. It's quite absurd to think of buying toys just 3 weeks after christmas, but of course there are still things on their wish-lists (don't even ask me what's on Bella's she gets more ambitious by the day!).
