      hello!

      so firstly, another 'me' pic. this time sporting a rather dashing black and white polka dot headband


      i got my tags from shabby chic crafts yesterday. i went for the doodled journal tags. now i just need some more photos so i can use them!


      yesterday marcus was having more colour work put into his sleeve (full arm tattoo) so i went along to get bits on my feet touched up. luckily they havent swollen up this time!




      also yesterday i got the camera for the travelling polaroid project. you basically take a photo, sign the camera and send it on, keeping the photo and scanning it into the group.


      found some more disney paris photos

      polaroid stop motion

      ..on you tube.


      now i decided a while ago that i wouldnt buy conventional scrapping kits as a lot of the bits were left unused. i have made an exception this month..scrapping angels have pink paislee office lingo for their kit and the value is brilliant.
