I didn't realise how long it had been since posting! I never intended to be away this long. But my urge to be in my scrap room had vanished! and I am thinking I am not alone when I say that, the longer you are away from scrapping the harder it is to get back into it?
So a few days ago I made myself sit down in my room and make a page before the time away from it got any longer!
It is half way though the year, so I decided to do a 8 1/2 year page for Harry...a few things about him that I didn't want to forget. Oh boy...what did I let get myself into! I found it really hard to make a page that could fit that amount of journalling in. So after a few days of moving stuff around and humming about it this is what I came up with. I have to admit that I am not 100% happy with it. I still feel like there is something missing from the bottom half of the page, but to be honest I got fed up with looking at it and called it done...at least I got all the journalling in...
and here are some close ups...
I used a mixture of Crate Paper and Simple Stories on this page...
I used two older photos of Harry and then the recent one in the middle...
I have a busy weekend ahead of me....it is the Queens Jubilee over the next for days here in the UK and I have a huge BBQ planned for tomorrow...fingers crossed it doesn't rain...cannot wait to take lots of photos!
Have a good weekend everyone!

What a nice page, your journaling fits in perfectly. I understand what you mean by missing something at the bottom. Maybe some borderstrip or a little green accent somewhere accross the bottom? Anyway, i think it's fantastic allready... love, Joyce
Hi Juisie...i tried a border across the bottom and it looked really wrong...but thankyou for the idea xxxxxxx
Gorgeous layout and fantastic photos, I really do love your style!
I always love your creations. I think it is stunning as it is, but I know the feeling on my own work when its not quite right. Thanks for the update. Even when it takes a while Ill still be here when you do have something to share.
Such a fab page! Love your design, and your nice details!
your layout looks perfect to me...love it and i love how you have recorded Harry as he is Right Now.
