Guess what? its been snowing! LOL

So, folks, I hope you got through the snow and ice and wind chill. Windchill! WOW wasn't that something? I had to go out to walk the dog but boy oh boy was I glad to get back home. Not that it seems to have bothered Leo! Cumbria had its share of snow woe...but my area is largely free from white stuff now and it does feel a tad warmer but only a tad! still need the gloves and hat and scarf and boots!
So, this is the first post of March.I have been wondering if its worth blogging but hey ho... if nothing else I keep a record of what I made and I know from Facebook there are a few kind souls looking. So lets start with scrapbooking. I love scrapbooking, memory keeping,I hope in future my family will look back on the pages and be saying things like "Remember this" or "OMG I can't believe that we did that" etc.
First page is full of photos taken over Christmas in Lanzarote. My two daughters enjoying being sisters and dare I point out having more then one or two cocktails! They both shared a chair and laughing so hard fell off it! Backing paper is by Amy Tangerine  and emojis were part of another paper collection.
Next My Tribe! How I love them all. Two photos again taken on our holiday and one same day has the above page photos were taken and the other in the villa, during a evening we were playing card games.

close up below of some of the detail

Holiday again Granddaughter Chloe and myself

Next is Chloe and  Angela together being silly. :)

Of course I had to do a page on the snow! Those photos were taken from my bedroom window. 

Die cut snow man

Another page of winter weather. I was walking the dog on "the Line" which is part of the coast to coast walk, that goes from Whitehaven to the East coast.  The old railway line is now a lovely place to walk and cycle etc. These photos were taken at the part where the old station used to be.
Next two photos are once again from the holiday.. I loved watching the sunrises. and these are photos showing how beautiful they were.

I used mixed media on this page including cheesecloth dyed with  inky spray mists and some lace and ribbon.

A Disney page. Me and Daisy! I fussy cut those banners from a 12x12 paper

Parchment. These will be for a lesson. I cancelled the last one because I didn't want the ladies driving in the snow! Pattern by Anne Jennings
This pattern  below is by Judith Maslen.

Last of all another Disney page. My fave Disney person DONALD DUCK! YAY!  I used a stencil and paint for the background,  

So, that;s it for this time. seems to be a lot of craft stuff but there are a few pages I didn't show last time! I hope you all keep warm and safe in this awful weather. Remember to check any elderly neighbours are OK.Spread the love and be kind to people, you reap what you sow, so sow love, kindness and acceptance and understanding not hate and anger...that way we can all do our bit to make the world a better place.till next time byeeeeeeee
