Feeling better....

This weekend was a  quick trip up to Scotland on a plane...( which I hate flying) with a little boy who was fine until we got on the plane and then his temperature spiked and he was ill the whole weekend....for a surprise 70th birthday party. I am ready for a quiet week...which has not happened!!! lol...

Anyway I have finally got around to finishing a page that has been sitting around on my desk for the last week..and due to having to do extra days at work ( booo!) I have no only just got it finished.

For a while the comments about me being a 'one trick pony' and I should 'up my game' used to bother me....spending hours trying to make my pages into something different every time...but I have realised ( i may have said this before) that I am more comfortable with my 'normal' line of photos that I always use....and to be honest I really struggle to scrap out of it...so i may be a one trick pony...but this pony is happy doing my pages looking the same lol!!!!

Anyway...here is the page...

Not the colours that I would normally use...in fact the totally opposite ....it just turned out that way!

I only had two photos of me when I was pregnant...the one with me in it was taken on the morning that we went to find out what the sex of the baby was....and the other one I have no head!!! lol...

I don't think I have shared what my pregnancy was like on here....to say I am not the person to talk to when you are a first time pregnant person is an understatement...but I am still going to do a page about this time in my life and the years of problems after...but I just couldn't put the words on the paper just yet even after 9 years.

Just beautiful Wendy, I for one love your style...stunning design concept and if it works why fix it!

Lovely page as they all are. If you are a one trick pony then carry on with that 1 trick cos all your pages seem to work out beautifully. (who in earth would have the cheek and nerve to criticise anyway-how dare they).

All of your layouts are amazing and are different. That's why I became a follower! You do great work! Hope the little one is feeling better.

Wendy you have a great style and I know I am not alone in saying I never tire of seeing your wonderful work! Tx

Gorgeous layout!
Stick to your guns & do what feels right for you. The minute I broke of the the "follow what everyone else does" rut my scrapping improved & I got far more enjoyment from it.

I think your style is stunning and I am all for you sticking with it! I understand the pressure to evolve, believe me, but I hope you don't because I am always inspired by you.
Great paper choices too.

I love this!!! That is way too rude to say you are a one trick pony. Seriously that is so weird that people even would think like that! I think do what you love and love what you do! Goodness me!!! Your creations are rocking my socks! I love everyone's different styles! :D

Great page! Love the layering between the pics!

I hope you feel able to tell the story one day. Conception, pregnancy, birth and motherhood are not the automatic bed of roses we often think are they. As for your "trick", I love it, why change it? I wouldn't say that your layouts are overly similar anyway, so sod everyone else.
