Description: The photo is in Malta 2018 when we took my mum for short break. - I didn't agree with Sarita and Nadia's decision to buy a Polaroid... they paid over 100 pounds (at the time probably 150 US dollars) but really like the little photos! with Amanda Yi and Blagovesta Gosheva : Girls Make Trouble Too Amanda Yi : Celebrate a New You Brook Magee : White Christmas Template Erica Zane : Long Days Short Years JoCee : Daily Life Little Butterfly Wings and Amanda Yi : Memories Inside Ponytails : Today Mini Simple Pleasures : Berry Good Vibes and A Bee-utiful Day TFL!!!

Description: the journaling is a general moan abut the state of the world, the city where we live and our health, so not really meant to make much sense, just a bit of a rant I would write in my hand written journal, something that allows me to remain near sanity.

Description: I can resist Erica's marvellous wit in her cards and generally awesome kits.... and this had us here laughing so hard ... I HAD to make a page! Not sure the journaling is readable but the story is we fell in love with brie and grapes when Sarita was at violin classes on Saturday mornings. I would drive her and wait in the car, as though it was an over 3 hours class, the drive home would mean I had to go back the minute I arrived, so saving petrol, I stayed outside in the car. They had a 40 minutes break in the middle, sold brie and grapes brioches which we would have in mini picnics in the car, from then on we regularly have them at home. President is our favorite brand. with [b]Erica Zane : How I Roll Bundle[/b] the frame of the brie and grapes photo (is stock photo from pixabay as our own are too dark) the actual frame is tapped already, the rest of the tapes all around the page come from : [b]Blagovesta Gosheva : A Month in Review : October Erica Zane : Add to Cart Micheline Lincoln and Studio Basic : Barista Bundle Pink Reptile Designs and Studio Basic : Sunday Reset Bundle Wendy P : At the Orchard also started with Two Sides : Of Love Template by Alchemy Wild but not sure it remains true to the original.

Description: to be combined with challenge 09 page- Our local library is not just a heritage building for the amazing architecture and grounds, but the poet John Keats lived in the house for many years, the part of the house where he stayed has been turned into a museum, kept as it was in his time, and there is a story of his struggle as he was in love with his friend (house owner)'s daughter. The ceiling of the main room is a fabulous stained window, most of the furniture is from 1800s, the atmosphere there is incredible. Before I gave up and finally got a Kindle in 2011 (only because we we're traveling to Turkey on a cheap flight and I couldn't take enough books with luggage limits) we used to go regularly there. I git to read books just released from people who were writing their first, like never will forget I read Antony Bourdain's first book when none knew who he was. You can find more about the whole place here : Keats House City of London https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/things-to-do/attractions-museums-entertainment/keats-house in my page: Sarita in the photo, I think 12 or 13 years old, near the DVDs as she isn't much of a reader, despite mine and her dad's efforts!

by: MrsPeel

Description: I knew what page I would make the minute I saw the options, it is actually a page I have been wanting to do for a while... Zeinab is Nadia's little sister. Nadia is Sarita's best friend since Secondary School (you see her in a lot of pages I make) The bottom photos are in 2012, Nadia and Zeinab when we completely re done Sarita's bedroom. Zeinab was this cute little one who helped with everything, most of the time not wanting to face the camera...(this was a rare opportunity) then the top one is 2018, she was FRONT PAGE of Time Out Magazine... !!! This magazine is BIG in London, gives you info in places to go, to eat, to enjoy the city or museums exhibitions, etc, they did an article on. girls skateboarders, Zeinab is one of the rising stars and she made the cover... most definitely all grown up!!! with [b]Simple Pleasures : Kids Rule Bundle https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=41609&cat=&page=1 [b]Micheline Lincoln[/b] and [b]Southern Serenity (Alchemy Wild) : Day Dreamer Bundle[/b] The link is for the templates, there is also a fabulous kit which I am sure Micheline will be releasing soon now she is here! https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=44843&cat=&page=1 [b]TFL!!![/b]

#08a_aRelativelyDoableBucketList

MrsPeel — Mon, 10 Apr 2023 04:21:27 +0000

by: MrsPeel

Description: Relatively doable in most, the ones written in red are the ones that probably will never happen (playing Madame Morrible in Wicked I could have done if my body was cooperating, but I can say with total certainty it will never happen) and traveling in the Orient Express is a question off financials, I can do probably 5 full on all included holidays for the price of only route to Venice (probably now is over 6000 US dollars, last time I looked was 5000 British Sterling Pounds) the rest? All doable, I keep praying and trying to book the trips. Goes like this: 1. A Bruges mini cruise with Cunard (we almost booked it yesterday and then realized Sarita has her best friend's wedding in the middle of the dates (add more frustration to my list) 2. Japan 3 Greece 4 the ancient cities in the Middle East 5 Play Madame Morrible in Wicked 6 Disney USA (we ve been to Paris one) Meet in Person is related to 3 trips : 7 Soco (designer) and Emily (ScrapTherapy) in France 8 Mirjam and Sarah (Saar) somewhere in the Netherlands or Belgium 9 Val (as in Little Butterfly Wings), Ruh (Studio Basic) & Paula Kesselring- Brazil, which I can make it when we 10 go to see the family in South America- I want two take Sarita to Iguazu (the most spectacular water falls in the world) and Minas Gerais, the Historic Cities of Brazil. 11 Travel in the Orient Express to Venice and Istanbul. and, also linked to a trip because I am no good at learning online, would LOVE to 12 learn PSE as the program I am using is terribly basic and frustrating, so I will probably go back to Malta to see Vivi (another scrapper, we met there in 2018) and she will teach me. So there you have it, nothing too pretentious really LOL with Ponytails : The Teen Zone Erica Zane : Antisocial Caterpillar and Long Days Short Years Little Butterfly Wings : Know your worth Pink Reptile Designs : So Here is the Story Amanda Yi and Meagan's Creations : Prick Amanda Yi : Celebrate a New You Meagan's Creations : Doctor Visit : Diabetes the stamped alpha is from Brook Magee : Always Friends Sweet Shoppe Collabs : The Birds and The Bees TFL!

Description: I put the numbers to indicate the order in which I write the journaling, though not sure you ll be able to read. I'll try to transcribe but, in not so many words, the only problem I have with my child (27 years old! is that she is messy and, indeed, an expert procrastinator when it comes to tidying up her bedroom, worse of all, during the lock downs she did tidy up...but stuck a LOT of stuff in our living room, which now has gazillion kitchen stuff we are waiting to move when the weather is better and we can empty the shed...anyway.... this will need to be sorted y the end of the month, my brother is coming over for a week! with the [b]new release [/b]from [b]Amanda Yi and Meagan's Creations : I'll Do It Tomorrow Kit[/b] https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=55675&cat=1628&page=2 [b]TFL![/b]

Description: it was 20 years last January since I had a routine hip replacement gone terribly wrong and 4 operations that follow failed to fix the initial issue, not only that, but the plethora of health conditions that brought me, including Heart Failure and a couple of auto immune, and, worse of all, the psychological and emotional implications of loosing who you are and needing to adapt day by day... The photo is a few weeks ago, a still of a video Sarita took of me and I think it fits the feeling. Having love, faith, a bit of hope, a bit of determination and great support network that includes a wonderful family doctor, a fabulous family that despite being far away gives it all for us, and a chosen family which includes many of you here, some with whom I talk almost every day, some not so often but still huge in my heart, and some of you who don't even know how much music you bring to my heart, so, for that, THANK YOU, especially Christa cfile- Krista Norton94 Emily ScrapTherapy Sarah Saar Mirjam Pink Reptile Designer and Valeria Little Butterfly Wings who have had me in their teams for 10 years and always give their best, couldn't have gotten through the post few years without you all (including all scrappers, as I said, some of you have no idea how much just seeing your pages helps through my days) with [b]NEW RELEASE ON SALE NOW[/b] a triple scoop from wonderfully talented designers on their own, so you can imagine what together makes of this...

Sarita sitting there (DD) I'm not sure if this qualifies as reflection...there is definitely some, not sure if it has to be a new photo or a real reflection (this Museum has paintings and installations made to provoke the illusion)... This was Sarita (DD) and Nadia her best friend, trip to Barcelona last year, I may have mentioned this before, but seeng their photos made me re think the decision I had made in 2016, last time we went, that I don't need to go back there...now I NEED to be at this museum! with [b] NEW RELEASE ON SALE NOW[/b] from [b] Little Butterfly Wings : A Little Peculiar Bundle is 40% OFF[/b] https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=55674&cat=&page=1 [b] TFL![/b]
