Maisie's 1st Bath

I don't usually post Lo's other than the S.W.U. challenge on my blog, but I just had to add these of my new baby grandaughter having her 1st bath. I scrap lifted the design from a magazine, I thought it was so clever. I had wanted to use the magnets I bought ages ago and had so many pictures of Maisie having her bath, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to combine the two.

S.W.U. 31


How I feel about?
Being a 'grandparent'
I LOVE IT

Martin decide he wanted to be called 'Grumpy' - I knew I didn't want to be :-
Grandma, Granny or Nanny - so decide on Nana 'T' as a friend had become 'Nana Lyn' just before Maisie was born, and I quite liked it. But in the end babies will call you what ever they want.

SWU 28


Traditions ~ I've tried and tried to get this picture straight, perhaps it's my camera!! I expect it is more likely the way I'm holding the camera.

I found this challenge very taxing, traditions - traditions - Christmas - no, family traditions - we have many but I haven't any photos of them, or at least none I would want to scrap. I was looking through my box of old photos when these fell out. They are of the drama group my husband and I used to belong to on the mainland. After the final performance we would have a get-together and put of a little show of our own, there was a great deal of talent in our company, people would sing, recite poems ect,. Some of the guys would dress up in the girls costumes and give their rendition of the main songs - with a difference!! My son at 13 yrs(wearing the blue dress!) enjoyed this as he was 'one of the guys', my husband is in the front row stage left. It's a bit worrying when both son and husband enjoy dressing up!!

SWU 27


Hi everyone, well believe it or not, I'm now totally up-to-date with the challenges.


This LO probably only loosely fits the challenge, which was to scrap what makes you happy along with altering your paper, if you look closely you can see I have distressed the edges of the CS, but I have torn the paper as well, which is becoming easier for me!

The LO is of my sons Joe and his girlfriend Suzie during their recent holiday in Egypt and Ben and Nikki on the day their baby Maisie was born.

This is MY guilty pleasure (SCRAPPING), not the actual scrapping, it's the amount I spent on my hobby
