My two children are like Chalk and Cheese.
I really don't like doing doubles, but I'm ok with the end result.
Thanks Nic for the cards. They were perfect for this layout!!

This is my entry for challenge one of the MBM.
Fighting depression and coming out the other side being able to tell others of my experience and want to help other people struggling is a huge achievement in my life.
Sometimes it's a hard thing to talk about...but I have embraced the happier side. I do hope to be involved in a project soon that will be helping young people suffering from depression & anxiety.Kr.x16 comments
hell_to_heaven.jpgWent through Hell and came out in Heaven153 viewsThinking back over my life and my achievements, my mind kept stopping at this time in my life, as everything now is categorised as 'before' and 'after' this episode when my DS Joshua was sick..getting through that living hell was a huge achievement for me, I had to go through so many changes as a person to deal with it all and I came out a better person on the other side. 14 comments

IMG_3410_1.JPGMBM 5- Always Behind the Camera148 viewsThe flowers are home made, and the photo of me I have 3d, this lifts up to reveal little photo's of some of my layouts and mini me's also my journalling . Small problem....journalling to small so will have to type it.
When did I start scrap booking? I don't really know, I look back at my photo albums from 20 years ago and realize that's probably a form of scrapping, as I would cut all the boring or unwanted bits from photo's making them all different shapes & sizes so I could put more onto a page. DH would call it being to stingy to buy more pages, I call it being artistic.
About 5 years ago I went to a Scrapbooking party, I must say I didn't enjoy it as I felt pressured to be "creative" there & then, it wasn't until a couple of years later I picked up a scrap magazine and saw all the wonderful creations and I was instantly hooked, thats when my passion for this craft really started my inspiration comes from some of these magazines along with the Scrap Therapy forum of course.
Over the last few months I have noticed my scrapping has changed, I now love having lots of layers with yummy distressing and inking and making my own flowers is a must (although I have bought some gorgeous Prima ones) so I guess I am leaning towards "Shabby Chic"
With each new page I create I get a great sense of satisfaction and find I can't wait to start a new project, at times even getting out of bed in the middle of the night just to write down ideas, now that is an addiction..........and I love it.

MBM_09_Chall_1.jpgGrandma Status146 viewsMBM entry for Challenge 1. The LO is stuck together at the back for scanning purposes but I have cut the LO up into 6 4x6 sections so that I can put it into an AC 12x12 divided refill that I got from Leeanne. I've used Prima pp (Flirty Little Secret - Meander) as the base added paint and bits and pieces from stash and some lace from Mandy's rak (thanks again Mandy). 12 comments
